I feel like there aren't enough words in the English language to describe how much I love this. From Beauty and the Beast being the musical (I love that movie) to Jim dragging Pam out of the theatre. Just amazing. I could read this over and over again. Ugh. Did I already say I love this? Because I love this.

I certainly did not expect this, but wow it was great! I could so easily picture everything Pam was seeing and feeling and I know that she would have done exactly this in order to protect her kids. Great job, Dernhelm!!

Author's Response: Thank you so much, Aly! I'm glad you liked it :) 

ERIN?? Sweet, little, doesnt know how a camera works, Erin?? Literally the last person I expected, but that made the reveal so much better. But now I need the next chapter immediately because I also did NOT expect Toby to be a cop and for him to arrest her! What is happening and how do I get more of it?

Why do you have to write so fantastically well and draw us all in to your stories and make us fall in love with everything you write and then break our hearts? I hate that i love it so much. If they truly never see each other again then Toby can arrest you too for killing me.

The GASP i just let out at the end. What the HECK does that mean?! Did Roy kill packer?? Or pam?? Or someone trying to frame them?? I mention this every time but im still not letting go of the slim possibility that its sleepwalking jim. Im shocked, confused, and needing the next chapter last week please.

WHAT.
Okay first of all, Creed. Ugh I'm so sad for him. He just wanted his horses and old life back and now he's in an icehouse with Packer. And then Jim finding the notebook. Did Pam take it? I keep wanting to think the best of Pam, she couldn't have done anything wrong... but what if she had? Wanted to know if Jim had ulterior motives?

okay but then ROY. Who didn't he mean to kill?? Did he kill both of them? How is Jim going to react to that? Is Jim going to be the next target if Roy finds out about Jim and Pam?? So many questions and I don't know any of the answers but holy crap BT I love thisss.

Where do I even *begin*?! The bathroom scene was amazing. I'm so, so glad that they are finally able to express their feelings for one another. I'm sad that Dwight ruined it, but I guess he was better than Roy. My heart dropped whenever the notebook was declared missing, so I don't even want to know what Jim was feeling. I also feel like you want us to think Pam took it because she was the only one in the room that we know of, but I don't want to think Pam took it, so I'm not going to. If Pam ends up being the thieving murderer, then my life will be forever changed. And then that cliffhanger!! What did they find?! I don't even know where to begin guessing on what's in the book. Next chapter asap as possible, please.

Two chapters in one day? And you give us their first time together?! You truly spoil us, BT. Im so so so so glad that "fancy new Beesly" is making an appearance, deciding to ask for what she wants and going after it. Beautiful chapter, I loved it as always!!

This is SO good, BT. I knew I was going to love this story, but now that I'm reading it, I'm blown away. The writing is fantastic, the details are perfect, and Jim and Pam's interactions couldn't be any better. I also love that Pam just works for Roy, and so I'm assuming they have no romantic relationship. I hope that is the case, after all. I can't wait to see who is the one that gets murdered (that sounds horrible) and how it will effect everyone. I can't wait for more!

Author's Response: I just have to tell you how much I love that you included "I can't wait to see who is the one that gets murdered" in your review! Top 10 review lines ever. I hope you keep enjoying!

BT. I really just want to know what Packer is up to, who's going to die (my guess is Packer), and what is going on. Every story you share in this draws me further in, I love it. I genuinely felt bad for Creed when he said that Packer had sold the horses. I hope Creed is able to get them back/get new ones soon. And then the ending with Pam wanting Jim to hold her? Jim truly must have been dying in the best way possible, because I know I was. I wonder what had happened to make her do that, but really who cares if it means we get a special scene like that. I can't wait to see what happens in the morning.

Where do I even start?? I totally get why Jim would be upset after waking up alone. It definitely would have seemed like Pam was going to him for comfort because she knew he wouldnt turn her down. But then finding out what actually happened? I was seeing red right there with Jim. I dont even care, thank GOODNESS Packer is dead. Good riddance. I am nervous tho that Pam is gonna be a suspect because of that situation. I wonder what Jim will think.

But more importantly, their confessions on the dock. Ugh. I am so glad that Pam admitted her feelings as well. And that she was the one to initiate the kiss.

As of right now my guess for the murderer is Creed or, wild card, Bob Vance (Vance Refrigeration). We’ll see how utterly wrong i am eventually. Again, this story is amazing and so captivating.

SHED FIC!!! I remember you mentioning this a while ago and I have loved getting to see updates about it in the chat! I couldn't wait for you to post it and I'm so glad you finally did! This was so good. The pink bra and underwear made me smile because of her cardigan, and I loved Jim and Karen pretending to be Michael and Jan, even though Jim didn't lol. And Michael getting kicked out for "not being Michael" was so funny. And then in the shed? Ugh, so good. Where are my fire emojis? Great job, em!!

UGHHHHH. I'm definitely frustrated with these two right now. But I lovedddd this chapter. The couch scene was just perfection. I really thought they were going to get busy there until Karen called. But their conversation on the couch while half dressed, him telling her to tell him to come back or to move to New York. Ugh. Can't she see that he still loves her?! I hope the next update is soon because I need it.
