There's always room for seconds... but the first helping was pretty damn good.
Very nice work here.

Author's Response: Thank you, desert island!

Well, taxis and stairs did not disappoint at all, and I'm a *big* fan of apartments, so I should be happy for awhile to come.

I absolutely love how impossible it is for them to get up the stairs in a proper/timely way. The race at the end was so cute! 



Author's Response: Thanks, Semby!  I think your apartment-loving soul may approve of chapters 5 and 6.

Those of you who don't care for apartments can talk quietly amongst yourselves.

You're kidding, right?!?!?Hurry, next chapter PLEASE! :)



Author's Response: I take it you're pro-apartment, Abigail?  ;)

To say this gets better and better is an understatement.  Each chapter builds so nicely from the last.  I love when Pam takes charge and love, love, love the plan to run the rest of the way to her door.  Works for me!  Great job.

Author's Response: I wanted nearly everything about their first time to be a little bit silly.  Thank you, bitterpill

How can you make something as simple as climbing the stairs so hot?  I don't know how you do it.  I loved Jim's line: "Yes doesn't begin to cover it".  Very much looking forward to that apartment action.

P.S. Your end notes crack me up. 



Author's Response: Apartment action, as ordered, flamingosinparadise.  Thank you!

Ha!  Love the note from Michael and the fact he sent champagne.  Love Jim's "I wasn't going to do that" without being able to come up with a reason.  Very nice.

Awww...I feel worst for Michael...what is he going to do?  So nice of Pam to sacrifice their first date to help him.  It doesn't even make me sad.

um, yes, please?  to taxis, stairs and apartments.

And also to Pam sliding to the center of the seat.  She was well rewarded for taking initiative  ;o) 



Author's Response: She is NewPam, now with 50% More Boldness.  Thanks, lisahoo!

I feel so young and stupid,

Aww. One of the sweetest lines from Jim ever. He sounds so much in love.

I thought a lot farther than this. It was the part in between I forgot to prepare for.

I love how you show us Jim's passion and his fear all wrapped up in two short sentences. Awesome. And the way he wants her so bad he literally cannot get up the stairs, the way they stop every few steps to tangle up again, is so sexy it just sizzles through my computer screen. I love it that Pam is just as impatient to get to that third floor as Jim, and nevertheless keeps stopping for more kisses; equal partners, as always. And you do all that by showing us, not telling us. Did I say "awesome" already?

And of course, because this is Jim and Pam, you lighten the mood with

“What’s wrong with the lights in this place?”

I can't wait for the update. 

 

 



Author's Response: Thank you so much, NeverEnoughJam!  I was a little worried that it might not move fast enough for some, but I wanted them to be tied up on the stairs for a while, kind of being mutual obstacles to each other, if that makes any sense.

this makes me so freakin' happy. perfect anecdote to angst. hearts. And of course, this was awesome:

Jim! You’re making this really hard,” she whispers, as she retrieves them again. He laughs. “I’m just returning the favor,” he says.



Author's Response: I'm glad you like it, false_palindrome... I'm such a fan of Cheers Darlin'!

I really like apartments. :)  Amazing job Ms. Annabel - as always.  The details are sweet and sexy and just so perfectly them.  Bonus points for Michael in all his inane glory. 

I'll be sitting here patiently waiting for you to update.



Author's Response: Thanks, xoxoxo!  I collect bonus points.

I want to run outside and scream.  This was so good.  The taxi, hot, stairwell, very hot.  On this trend, I can't possibly imagine I'll be disappointed by the apartment.  I don't know why but I really liked the motion sensing lights.  This sounds dorky but I thought they helped impart the passage of time without actually discussing the time. 

Author's Response: I'm glad you mentioned it; I wondered if it worked at all, or was just unnecessary background noise.

I love happy and horny Jim and Pam. Ha.  This just seemed right, but I will say you are quite the tease for stopping that chapter where you did.  Bring on the apartment action!

Author's Response: Oh, it's been broughten!  ;)   Thanks, Morning Angel!

Great line!

*takes deep breath*
All right, here's the sitch: Every girl reading this is pretending she's Pam right now, and every guy is thinking he's Jim. (Unless you're gay, in which case, switch.)
So we're all breathing heavy here, and pushing our way into the apartment behind them and we can't wait to see what happens next. One or two chapters, hmm, I vote for two.
You are the epitome of awesome and that's all I can say right now.

Author's Response: Two it is, EverybodyHurts!  And thank you very much!

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!  You're so CRUEL!  THAT did not disappoint.  Well, except it was too short.  This is vying with "Talk" as my favorite story.  You are a wonder! 



Author's Response: Hee hee.  Thanks, NanReg.  Chapter 5 is longer and less cliff-hangery, so hopefully that'll cheer you up.
