Summary:

This is essentially my take on the "unseen" challenge. I've written a couple of these, and I originally thought I'd do one for every episode, but I'm thinking that's too ambitious for me -- especially when someone else has already done it so perfectly. But for what it's worth....

This was so beautifully done. I had to chuckle over Pam saying that Jonathan could do the reading at the wedding.

What an awesome chapter.  I felt so badly when Jim was hurting so. And how wise of Jim to realize it would take her time to end the relationship with Roy and get over the guilt.

I was afraid that Jonathan might be developing feelings for Pam, too, although he wouldn't do that to his brother. So much sadness and agnst, and she hasn't even told Roy yet. Poor Jim and poor Pam. I feel badly for all of them. Even Roy in a way.

The scene with Roy and Pam was so believable. I'm glad she had the strength to continue on with Roy breaking down so. Very realistic too for him to try to fix it with kissing and sex.  Very well done.

I truly loved this line from Michael - “Pam….sometimes you have to put your faith in chance in order to really have one.”  Then at the end I was afraid Pam was going to change her mind.

Jim's goodbyes at the office was so very sad - as was Jim and Pam at his house in the beginning.  But when the sadness ended, that was the hottest JAMiness EVER. Wow, you can write some love scenes!! WOW.

I am so sorry to see this story end.  I have thoroughly enjoyed reading each chapter. Totally awesome ending.

Aww, this was so sweet. I love her reaction to Jim kissing her "boo boo". "Before she can do any of those things, Jim does something that makes her already labored breathing stop completely, makes her heart beat in her ears, makes her stomach puddle around her feet."

What a beautiful story. I love how you interspersed the song with the story itself - what a perfect match. Very moving.  I love this line -  "He's finally started thinking it might be possible to one day be over her."

Author's Response: Thanks! I'm gald you liked it. I've been afraid to do a fic with a song because I was worried it would end up being just weird. But this one seemed to work.

I loved reading about how they got back together. It's a nice mix to have the reminenscing paired with the sadness of the current situation.

Author's Response:

I'm glad.  As for how they got back together - I've got to branch out.  I'm beginning to run out of ideas for that particular scenario.  LOL!
