Summary: “When did you first realize you liked me?”
Jim and Pam do some reminiscing (some episode-related, some purely invented), and Jim does some soul-searching (eventually). Set during Season 4 with flashbacks, so we'll say mild spoilers through the Deposition to be safe.

This was incredible. The last paragraph almost killed me. seriously. all of your stories are perfect so i must insist that you write whenever possible! lol
Author's Response: Thanks, ISB. And oh, no! I don\'t want to kill you...but I\'ll take that in the Michael Scott Pam almost broke her neck so I almost killed kind of way. Er, in a possitive way. Anywho, thanks for the positive words, and I\'ve been bitten by the writing bug, so I\'m not going anywhere!

I seriously can't get enough of this story! I just got the chance to read it this week and it's really wonderful. I love the way you've been able to make their interactions innocent yet very intimate. And the story is heartbreaking, but I'm sure there are happier times ahead ;)
Can't wait for more!
Author's Response: Thank you so much! I appreciate your comments. I have been trying to keep it innocent yet intimate so far. Glad it's not coming across as cloying. Eventually, the story will stop being heartbreaking. Not for a while, though.

Author's Response: I'm glad to hear the last chapter got to you. I'm starting to think I really screwed the pooch on that one. No promises on the happy lasting right now. But I'm sure that whatever I come up with won't be as angsty as the last two.

Another wonderful chapter. So happy to see that things are finally looking up on all fronts (but will it stick?). The 'ejaculation fraction' joke made me laugh out loud. Poor Jim. He was doing so well! LOL
Looking forward to another update!
Author's Response:
Thank you! I'm glad you liked the ejaculation fraction joke. I hope to get the next chapter up before too much time passes.
Thanks very much for taking the time to review!

Another fantastic chapter, VB. I always get so excited when I see you've updated! I'm so glad Jim finally got to talk to his mom, even if he did feel helpless. Oh, and his poor mom being so confused about the wedding ring! I'm so excited to see how this all plays out. Will Pam have to face Larissa when Jim inevitably goes to sit with his dad? Will his dad wake up soon? What happens when Karen finds out? !!!
Can't wait for another update. And may I request that we have some Jim/Pam interaction in the next chapter? lol
Author's Response:
Thanks a lot! I love to see all those questions you have running through your mind. They will all be answered soon.
And, yes, I think I can accommodate your request for some Jim/Pam interaction in the next chapter.

Vampiric Blood! So so so happy to see an update! This chapter was so sweet. And Pam doing the voices was adorable. I'm also getting super curious as to what is engraved on Jim's ring! Looking forward to more :) -spencer
Author's Response: Glad you liked dramatic Pam! The ring ... well, that will have to wait a little while longer.

girl7, this chapter was incredible! You write angst so well!
Your description of what Pam must have been feeling that night (and casino night) is spot on with her character.
Cannot wait for more!
Author's Response:
Ah, thank you so much! As I keep saying, I had my worries with this one, but I really felt like it was important (for the remainder of the story) that I explore what was going on in Pam's head. Because while I think it's really easy for all of us who're watching to think she's insane for not having run off with Jim that very night (heh), the fact is that she's been with Roy for such an incredibly long time -- and that carries baggage, emotional weight.
That said, she will work through it. :o)
Thanks for reviewing!

Oh! And I'd also like to second PokerChips request for a "scene" with Jim seeing Pam's injuries. Just the thought of it is heartwrenching!

"So you'll be home soon."
"Yeah, I will."
I can't even describe how excited I was when I read this line! There was a nice little cheer section in my head yelling "Go to Scranton!", and then he did! lol. This chapter was excellent!
Author's Response: Thanks!! I'm glad you appreciated that line. I had changed Jim's line there in my last revision, so I'm glad it was appreciated! Pam is thinking he's going to his home in Stamford, and Jim knows she thinks that but is thinking of his real home in Scranton with Pam. :o) Thanks for reading and reviewing!
