How Jim became a 28-year-old virgin.

This is somewhat of a departure from my last few fluffy stories. This one will be kind of dark, so be warned.

Post- The Job. Jim and Pam's new relationship is tested.

Update - finished! Sorry it took so long.

I decided to write a sequel to Charcoal & Watercolors !!!!

The story picks up right about where Charcoal & Watercolors left off -- Jim and Pam's wedding. Then goes from there into their future. Jim still works at the advertising company and Pam works (exclusively) at a publishing company where she is an illustrator of children's stories.

I added a few more characters ;) and am planning on keeping almost all of the characters from the previous story.

Enjoy!!

He ate Frosted Cheerios and watched ESPN highlights in the living room while she sipped her tea silently in the kitchen, contemplating the ways she could tell him she was leaving.

A Pam POV fic, with vague spoilers through season 2, I suppose.

Set after Cocktails...Most of the office leaves for the day. A few people are left behind. One of them has a gun and every intention of using it.

A year or two before the cameras arrived, Michael takes the staff to the Poconos for a camaraderie event.  Much unresolved sexual tension and angst ensues (uh, between Jim & Pam, not the entire staff).

While experiencing writer's block for "Grow a Pair," I thought, "what about the other moments when Pam could have "made things right" so to speak?  There were plenty of times in Season 2, but for the sake of my ADD, I will limit myself to Season 3 so I won't get bored and never finish. 

Basically, each chapter (or series of chapters, when stated) is a brief "what if" of episodes in S3 when Pam could've been bolder and made things right with Jim, or when Jim could've made one different choice, and kept things "open" with Pam.
