The year is 1929. Pamela Beesly was doing alright despite everything going on in America. She was engaged to a miner, Roy Anderson, who swept her off her feet and took her to a new kind of life back in Chicago. After the stock market crashed she began to seek employment in order to stay afloat. Thanks to a sexy local club singer, in a pinstripe suit, named Jimmy Halpert and his in with the owner of the Green Door Tavern Pam was working nights as a waitress at the town's most popular speakeasy. Not to mention she was now employed by the largest Mob Boss in America. Michael Scarn.

Pam relives a single day over and over again--what can she do to break the loop. We all know, but when will she figure it out?

 Inspired by Groundhog Day (of course) and the two fics based on that movie on this archive already, House Call by time4moxie and especially Second Chances: The Booze Cruise by GreenFish (though that one is Jim POV).  

Honey, you don’t have a ton of offers piling up under your name. I’ve seen you act, you’re not terribly bad, but you need people to see that. You need to be known. You need to make some money so you’ll stop serving coffee. And this is your chance, ok?

Disclaimer: I don't own any characters or places you recognize. I don't even own Clare, since she's based on 3 real people I know. Sorry not sorry. 

A Will They or Won't They AU with Pam and Jim as next door neighbors.

“Pam, come on. Don’t do that.” The sound of his bare feet on the wooden floor following behind kept me in motion through the dining room, looking under chairs for my sandals. I summoned everything I had in me not to look at him in his currently half-dressed state.

“Don’t do what? Jim, I’m fine. Really.”

I’m just in love with you and you only want to be friendly neighbors. And, also, since I’m being honest with myself, my body is not loving the unsated high of being as aroused as I just felt with your hands on me like that.

Pam and Jim just started dating, and Pam’s curious about Jim’s romantic past. He pretty much knows all about hers, such as it is, so it seems only fair. 

Pam, Dwight and company scramble to uncover what happened to Jim, while Jim engages in mind games with his reluctant but unstable captor in hopes of being found alive.

My entry for the Halloween Contest :) 

Jim and Pam meet at a college Halloween party. 

Jim Halpert loves his wife. He loves his children. He doesn't love being a werewolf… but then, who would? 

Humbly submitted for the 2018 Halloween competition.
