This is extremely adorable. The tone is show-perfect and you captured each of the characters really well. Thank you for sharing!

Adorable! There’s just something about that time when he was still pining and she was still in denial— horrible to live through, magical for fanfic! I think you caught their voices very well— including our tiny glimpses of Dwight. I enjoyed it!

You had me at ""Dwight, it's important to support local businesses. Now, am I invited or not?" Jim and Dwight are my second favorite couple on this show.
Pam drawing a pumpkin on Jim's hand - gah, so perfect. So early episodes them.
Mose and Dwight = my third favorite couple on the show.
You write Dwight so well! I laughed out loud at "You have succeeded". And the gift basket is priceless.
Oh Jim and Pam... so sweet and innocent. Such subtle flirting. Thank goodness that raccoon showed up! All of it adorable. Not a bad night indeed!

Very cute but still with all the angsty heartache of the early Jim and Pam relationship. It was very cute to imagine Pam grabbing onto Jim's arm like that.

Oooh! I love it. Nice seasonal currents without being too much or over the top.
I got a big smile when she got scared and had to grab his jacket lapels. I’m a sucker for the whole “I’m scared so hold my hand” schtick, and you did it beautifully here.
Dwight grinning maniacally was a great description. I love this trio as a friendship so I feel like we got a little early-series taste of that here. Dwight’s so into it and Pam getting Jim to show some enthusiasm is wonderful and so realistic.
I was bummed that she turned down his invite, but ya know, it’s probably the most realistic.
Awwww, Jim. One day you’ll get to cash in on that mental list. Just don’t forget everything on it.
Oh! And Pam’s doodle on his hand at the beginning was a treat! She DOES make a lot of “innocent” excuses to grab his hands, doesn’t she?

Thank you so much! I’m glad you enjoyed :) I would have loved to continue their evening and take this into a whole AU get-together fic, BUT it was already running long haha and I really wanted to stay true to their awkward crushes pre-show —just enough flirting that neither loses hope! I feel like if I leave it here, it could have happened!
Originally I wanted Jim to be the one who got a little freaked out and Pam has to protect him ;D it would have been funny, but this happened instead and I’m happy with it :)
oh and I totally used to pull the same thing with the marker doodles on my crushes ;)
