Summary:

A collection of moments in Jim and Pam's new life together. Because even though we rarely get to see it outside the office, it has to be amazing. (Even if there are some not-so-amazing times.)

yeah, i definitely lol'd at the "holla." b/c i could totally see Jim in all his white-boyishness saying that about sex :) great chapter. 

Summary: An alternate universe that sees Pam turning over a new leaf at a private art school in Chicago, Ill. In this world, Dunder Mifflin doesn't exist, although a few of its characters are guaranteed to pop up here and there. On her first day, Pam meets Jim, a cute, affable, and somewhat geeky Journalism major who introduces her to indie rock, old movies, pop culture and a whole new world.

i love love love that you made the confirmation of their relationship about facebook! :) just like real life lol

Author's Response: Yes!! Facebook is so the way to tell someone you want to \"be exclusive\". Ha-ha. In college, I swear Facebook is the only way I communicated with any of my friends. :P

ok, don't feel dirty. or do, but feel good about it :) b/c this was AMAZING. i can't believe that you're new to writing this. it was hot. and i loved how real it was. i was worried that Jim wouldn't be forgiving, but this Jim is just awesome. and instead of it being sappy and sweet forgiveness it was hot, sexy forgiveness. nice. :)

i loved this chapter! it was sweet and romantic. i loved the description of the wedding, and  Jim singing  was TOO cute!  rushing off to read the next chapter... :)

Author's Response: Yay! I\'m so happy to hear that you enjoyed it, as it was one of the most stressful to write- for whatever reason. Which means the big Jim/Pam wedding is probably going to give me an ulcer. Oy! Wish me luck. Heh-heh.

this may not be happy, but i like it. b/c honestly Jim was being a horrible person at that time in his life and he would have had sex with Karen that morning... and then tried to get with Pam that night. and if i were her, that'd be hard for me to swallow too. ok i think my review might be longer than your fic, i just needed to say nice job. :)

Author's Response: thanks for your review, rulesofjinx! i\'m so glad you enjoyed it. yeah, i think that jim had a lot going on during that time, and considering that he\'d been holding these feelings for pam inside of him for years it doesn\'t surprise me that it would go as far as it did on the first date. if i were pam, i wouldn\'t be stopping him either ;) thanks again for reading!

Author's Response: These are just the kinds of things I like to write--the stuff we\'ll never see on the show. Glad you liked it! I appreciate that--I try very hard to capture their voices/personalities. Thanks! :)

i don't hate you at all. in fact i almost always love it when they don't immediately have sex. it just seems more realistic to me. :) anyways, i've been enjoying this story a lot and thought i'd comment to assure you that you're doing a great job. it has an awesome pace. also, you can't have two firsts at one time, right? hehe

i loved these little snippets of Karen's life. i think it's good that she's realized that things are just meant and she had to go through the hard stuff to get to her happiness. :) also, honeymooning on the Cape sounds precious.

i love this. first of all it's hot. second of all, it's real life. i love how you manage to make it funny and interesting and new. :) and i'll probably never hear the word bounce the same way again.

Author's Response: 'Real' is a great compliment...as for 'bounce', well just think about fabric softener or something. Yeah, that ought to help ;-) Thanks, rulesofjinx!

OMG i freaking loved this. Karen as tiny and mean, his smart comment. and the "Not yet," sends chills down my back. so good!!! i'm glad Karen's happy. WITHOUT Jim :) also, i'm glad someone else noticed how much Dan resembled Jim. anyway, great fic, darlin!

Author's Response: Well, thank you! And thank you for listing your favorite things (it's amazing you found so many in a piece this short- makes me feel warm and shiny!). I'm so glad you liked it!

Author's Response: Thank you Rulesofjinx! I'm glad this came off as believable to you...and the "balance" scene was my second fave of the episode for sure.

awww!!!!!!!!!!! so cute! first of all, you have to keep writing these. i love the internal monologue. Pam's a rambler and you captured that PERFECTLY. i love it. i love that she freaks out about call Jim Daddy, and accidentally mentions sex (but didn't accidentally have it), and tells her kid not to do drugs. it's so stereotypical and momish, but still SO PAM. gah. i just love it! there aren't anymore words. just gushing at your preciousness. 

Author's Response: Thanks so much RoJ!  It makes me very happy to know the bits that you particularly liked.  Thank you so much for taking the time to tell me so!
