One of the best short fics I've read! :) Not too fluffy, not too angsty... just right.

For better or for worse, right? She loves him in private, in public, in anger... and you put it here for us to see and feel along with her. With both of them. Beautiful as always.

oh wow, I am going to miss those two!!!  Le sigh.

Beautifully done.  Those flirty looks across the office have a lot behind them, no?

Oh, holding back!Jim = I love it so much I can barely stand it. This was so gorgeously written. Very lush and vivid. I died a little bit inside just now. Beautiful!

Great mood piece.  I like the idea that he sometimes still feels a need to hold back, but she really doesn't want him to.  It was a lovely read.

"Her, “Please, it’s obvious you think this means less to me than it does to you.” And his, “You know that’s not true. I just feel like I have to hold back sometimes because I don’t want to scare you.” And finally her, “I’m not scared. Not anymore.”"

YES. this last paragraph sums up pam's transformation very nicely... i was really drawn into the story by its title, but the prose says so much about the (unspoken) bits of their relationship.

“What’s your favorite part of me?” Asked quietly, hesitantly, once it’s completely dark and he’s already touched or seen most of her so she’s no longer embarrassed. So beautiful.  Just a great story with a great feel.

Gorgeous writing that makes me feel like I'm right there in these scenes.  Love the sweet, intimate moments that you've shown, but that last paragraph worked especially well, too.  Love the idea of Jim thinking he has to hold back and Pam easing his mind.  Just lovely.

How DO you do it? Every. Time. You pack all this sweetness and warmth into a story and then hit us with that twist at the end, which both reinforces and spins the previous paragraphs. All your work is good, but this is just so outstanding. So subtle. *sigh* Thank you for sharing it.

Wow! Gorgeous. And this 

And his, “You know that’s not true. I just feel like I have to hold back sometimes because I don’t want to scare you.” And finally her, “I’m not scared. Not anymore.” 

Just perfect!
