He was never meant to end up here, to meet her, and to have his life changed forever.

Karen thinks that a small party - her apartment is NOT huge - of a select few coworkers, to celebrate her recent move to her very cool new apartment, is a fantastic and totally non-problematic idea. Jim wants her to get to know them. No?

Jim is... unconvinced. He suspects that there are agendas at play here.

But, as she says, it's only one night. What could possibly go wrong? 

Could this be another season 3 fixer???

"There was a definite conflict within him: between the Jim who loved having Pam for a best friend and the Jim who wanted to press her up against the door of his apartment and kiss every single platonic thought out of her brain."

An AU loosely based on the film “When Harry Met Sally.”

Meeting in an unusual place in life, a broken Jim and Pam try their best to put the pieces of their lives back together while not falling apart and back down the hole that they're trying to help one another out of.

Based on the song "How Not To" by Dan + Shay, because do I *ever* write something that *isn't* based on a song?
