He knew before she pointed it out which one was hers: the only one with curtains in the window and potted plants on the steps.
Of course, that's our Pam's place! Love how the attraction between them is already getting awkward. She still can't call him Jim. Sigh.
Onto the next....

Ok, I remember reading this awhile back, and then forgetting about it. So when I saw the Mean magazine cover, it totally brought me back to the beginning of this story, so here I am. I loved "Hope" too, and am looking foward to reading the rest of this. Thanks!

This story is just so adorable and wonderful. I love how you've captured the 40's (not that I lived through them). I especially loved how Jim noticed the straw thing and that Pam even asked him how he knew. Very cute.

I love this! I was so glad to see you had updated. Great chapter, and I was really happy to see Rear Window referenced (I adore that movie)!
By the way, I love your top in that picture, it's adorable!
Author's Response:
I'm glad you know what that movie is, with that stupid "Disturbia" movie out everyone seemed to forget about the original...and it came out in August '54 so it worked well.
And thanks, It's from Kohl's I have it in four colors...hah

This just breaks my heart. I love everything you've got going here, and truth be told, I miss the days when sleeping around wasn't common. Guess I'm just an old-fashioned gal. Ok, back to reading!

Yayayayayay!!! Imagine me saying this about 50,000 more times and then you'll get an idea of how excited I was to see a new chapter!
And it was totally great too! I was too distracted by the content to look for grammar errors, so I don't have any to point out, but maybe I'll notice some on a second read-through. For now, just, thanks for updating! :D

Awwww....I wanted Pam to stay and watch the fireworks with Jim. =( Is she going to come back??

I really like it! I don't usually go for AU's like this, but you do it really well. I giggled so much at Pam and Jim doing their little detective gag. It was cute. :)

Thank you ,Thank you for the update !!! Loved Jim's sleeves rolled up & tousled hair...I can't wait for them to "hook up"...That is IF this is where the story is leading ;)Awesome!!

So glad that you are continuing this story! I was going to write you some very strongly worded posts on TWoP, but I see that is now unnecessary :) Carry on!

This is so sad. But I really love it.

Ooh, pampongchamp, I LOVE this story! I keep picturing it in the palette of Far From Heaven. It's a great storyline, and I love Boss!Jim. I'm really excited to see where this goes- it's a nice contrast between the intensity of their feelings and the ridgid society.
Also, How Far Is Too Far was hysterical! It may have had the disctinction of having the funkiest looking baby in any film.
Keep on writing!

I am really intrigued by your story. It's just so charming.

...in her breathiest voice...
Um, yeah. "Private Eye". You kinkster.
When you were describing her dress, I kept thinking, I hope there's no Angela in this office - oh, wait, it's the 50s - they're all Angela!
At any rate, I like the boldness of Pam here, even if she doesn't really know what the effect is on Jim.

Yeah, this one's a heartbreaker. It's a nice dimension to add for Jim's character. I also like that Jim the Boss lives with his mother, yet Pam lives alone. I understand why, it's just a nice switch-up.

I am SO happy to see you continuing this. I just love the setting and the story and the characterizations and the details. And I think I want her dress. ...and, umm...."Mr. Halpert" indeed! Yes, I can agree with Nomad's assessment.
Date: March 21, 2007 08:04 am Title: Yellow Roses
OMG, Pam & Jim with the 'hard boiled' detective banter -- too freaking cute. (Are costumes next? hee!)
Date: March 21, 2007 06:28 am Title: Yellow Roses
I love this chapter too. I can hear Jim joking around with her....and they're into role playing huh? Interesting...
I could also completely envision the look on Jim's face when he saw her in the dress, made my heart pitter patter.
Lovely job.

I'm usually wary of AU's - so hard to pull off well (with notable exceptions like the amazing Hope) but I really think you're making it work here. They still seem like themselves yet the retro vibe comes thru too. Looking forward to more!
Date: March 21, 2007 05:35 am Title: Yellow Roses
Oh I am in love with this story :) "As though it had a mind of it's own,his hand started to reach toward her"....sigh....
Date: March 20, 2007 09:45 pm Title: Leather Gloves
I actually registered here just so I could comment on this story. I used to be totally not into AU stories and (surprise, surprise) Hope totally turned me - which is why I gave this story a chance...and am totally hooked. Keep it up!
Author's Response: yay! i'm so glad!

Aww, that was the cutest exchange in his office! I could just hear him speaking that. Jim needs to ..... do something. About Roy. Run him over with his Caddy.

I am soooo glad this has been updated...Thank you !!! Awww I feel sad for Jim...he needs some cheering up ;)
