Ahhh! That opening section where he just ignores her was like an absolute punch to the gut, I thought she's played us, that one hurt, hope is lost. (Also side note having fainted for that same reason made me LOL I was like wait a sec...) But OMG now he knows and he's staying!! Can't wait for what is next even though I'm sad it will be over! I know he'll love the baby even if its not his but I really hope its a hundred percent Jam baby!

Who boy, lots of big feelings this time around. Pam feeling lost and scared before Jim comes back. Then ignored. However she gets the courage to talk to him. Good job Pam! I get the feeling she wasn't going to take no for an answer even if she hadn't fainted.
Look at Jim though. He can't help but be at her side. He goes through the wringer a bit too. Seeing Pam faint, being called her boyfriend, a day in the hospital, finding out she's pregnant, then calling Roy of all people and dealing with that. I don't blame him for being a bit emotional.
Nice confession from Pam there. She's found strength and honest. Honesty with Roy and everything that means. Honesty with Jim enough to tell him she had to do everything on her own so no she doesn't need him. But then to say she wants him and loves him. Wonderful.
One can feel the relief come off Jim's shoulders. He then finds the strength to do the right thing too and promises to be there with her.
So even though it this chapter moved pretty quick, it had a ton of emotions behind it that all felt very real. Looking forward to seeing how it all wraps up.

Holy cannoli woman, are you trying to kill me with this angst?! Having said that, BRAVO this was so great
I don't need you, but that doesn't mean I don't want you - YOU ARE A WORDSMITH WOMAN
Bloody loved this and can't wait for the next chapter. That baby better bloody be Jim's. Love you.

Loved this chapter! So lovely that Pam has gotten more comfortable with being pregnant and is settling well into her new life. It totally makes sense that she'd be so upset about it being a girl even though she'd always wanted a girl. It's definitely going to be interesting seeing how it all goes when Jim and the Stamford crew come to Scranton and how it affects Pam's journey. I love that she has her sister and Isabel to support her through it all though. Can't wait for more!

This was a very good start and congratulations on getting your first chapter up! Welcome to the MTT Writers’ club.
Something has been niggling me though and it’s more your comment intro about it being “law” that someone’s first story is about Casino Night. That’s not the case at all, not sure where you got that idea from. Many people have written about something different to that in their first story. Please don’t make sweeping generalisations. Rant over.
Good luck with the next chapters, I shall definitely read on with the two you’ve written already,

I'm glad you are enjoying so far and willing to stick around!
I honestly didnt mean anything by the intro comment, I was just trying to be funny and it was my initiation into writing. I didn't mean to cause any offence, I'm not that kind of person and I'm fully aware of the amazing stories people have written here x

Author's Response: Aw thank you so much! Hope it doesn't disappoint x

So I like the fast forward in time. I like that Pam is really starting to come into her own with the help of Izzy and Penny. Good for her! She needs it. Really interesting that she hasn't told anyone at DM she's pregnant, especially Roy. However it's only a matter of time before it'll be revealed. I'm sure that's a whole big hornet's nest that's going to be kicked up.
However now we get to the REALLY interesting part. Jim's coming back. Will Karen be on his arm? Will Pam tell him what's going on? Inquiring minds want to know. Can't wait for the next update.

Dun dun dunnnnn what will happen next! Find out next time on...
Thank you so much for your review Warrior, always appreciated :) x

I think that Pam is better off being a single mom
if Jim is the dad and he’s acting like a brat.

'This is all filler' I think NOT! Loved this update here! So much drama packed into this update from the break-up all the way to the emergence of Pregnant Pam. Her little conversation with Polly was so heartbreaking knowing the age-old receptionist line. Look forward to more and hopefully soon finding out who the baby daddy is!!

Post Casino Night Pam, especially after this version is always a bit of a downer. Her life is thrown to the wind and she's just trying to survive. Add in Jim ghosting her and it's even more stress. Then to find out she's also pregnant and not sure who the father is. Feels like she's got some tough choices ahead of her for sure. Hopefully she find the courage to do the right thing.

On the assumption that the child is Jim's, I can't imagine how Roy is going to be when he finds out that Pam cheated on him. There's not going to be any place for Jim to hide. The truth is that this story promises strong emotions. Great job.
Author's Response: Thank you so much for your review! We will have to wait and see who the father is but I hope I do what's in my head well enough to convey those emotions! Thanks again!

You shut your mouth with the ‘this is all filler’. This was amazing! But I’m serious, if this baby is not Jim’s you’re gonna have a lot to answer for.
Great work 👏👏👏

Yay!! You're finally posting.
I had no idea Casino Night was a rite of passage here but no complaints! And wow, you made them have sex and he still leaves?? Wonder how that's gonna turn out since there's no debate: Pam actually cheated on Roy.
Can't wait for your update!
Author's Response:
Thank you <3 Wouldn't have done this without you guys!
Hahah it might not be a rite of passage but after reading so many, I felt as though it was. Hoping I can turn this into something as enjoyable as the other casino night fics on this site.
I will do my best with the next update!

Well this is just all sorts of amazing!!! Pretty awesome chapter for your first post!!! I love how you took the canon parking lot scene and made it your own with your narration…. So incredible!! I know we have all seen that a thousand times on our screens but reading your narrative really reminded me of what a powerful scene JK and JF put together. Wow!
I also loved hearing the other end of Pam’s phone call. MrsK ALWAYS tells me that Pam’s mom (the original Helene) would NEVER encourage Pam to stay with Roy, and now that I see her side of the conversation, I have to agree with you both… of course she sees the joy and happiness Jim brings to her daughter!!
The hook up makes it almost worse that Jim and Pam will always have this one fleeting memory of what it could be if they never get their act together… I thought it was interesting but realistic that it wasn’t the best sex because they don’t know each other in that way yet— and that you didn’t make Roy to be a terrible lover like he is so many other fics. Of course I’m a Jam fan— but this is a really interesting and realistic and logical position to write. Of course, they DID feel the sparks and momentum of what could be if they surrender!
I think you also paint Pam in this totally understandable role of confusion… while I appreciate Jim saying his part, and I know Pam was willfully ignoring the signs and the feelings— but there’s a lot of emotions that come from walking away from Roy in an instant. There are a lot of feelings that come from thinking about having to explain what happened, a non wedding, and to live in the awkwardness of that decision for awhile… so I feel for Pam in this story.
Love it! I’m hooked! This is so good! Can’t wait to see where it goes from here!! Thank you for sharing!!
Author's Response:
Thank you so much for such a wonderful review!
I completely agree!! JK and JF did an amazing job with the parking lot scene! JK's pure emotion and JF, I feel, was saying everything with her body language that contradicted the words she was vocalising.
I'm so happy you enjoyed my first chapter and by reading your review, feel like you are on my wave length for what I was trying to achieve when I was writing this!
I hope I do the rest of the fic justice so that you enjoy!

First off, welcome to being an official MTT author! Welcome to the club!
Now let's talk shall we because holy crap! To say your first fic is about Casino Night and then to have it go there! Bold choice for sure. I can so easily see that Pam got swept up in the torrent of emotions of the moment so she would let this happen, but then, to nod at his last question and then let him walk out the door like that? Ouch. I mean Casino Night and its aftermath are rough enough but now adding this and possibly what it all entails? This is huge. Really curious to see how it's all going to play out. Feels like there's going to be a lot of big emotions still rolling around. Great job for your first time out of the gate.

Please don’t leave it like that!
Jim made the big gesture to Pam,
now it’s her turn to do the same.
Can you have her go to Stamford to tell him
that she wants him too?
And then they can have sex on top of Karen’s desk. 😂

Hahha it's not quiiiite where I had this storyline going, but I'll remember the sex on Karen's desk for if I do any future fics!
