The title for the chapter seems fine. You're talking about those things so it fits.

I get the feeling that last chapter when Pam said "I can't," she didn't quite realize the effect those two words would have on Jim. Fortunately she's not only pretty quick on the uptake but can also still read Jim enough to see she needed to clarify.

Jim's moment of panic though made complete sense. It's only their first date after all and all the feelings from the past are still there.

However more and more they're discovering they can move past the loneliness and pain. Especially since they've found they can make plans together now. Nice work

Author's Response:

Yeah i felt that too warrior4. They both have been through a lot in past year and I am sure there are some emotional triggers that'll keep surfacing time to time, because you don't just "get over" the hurt. You work on them. 

Thanks for the feedback.
