Okay, bear with me people. This is my first epic story in a reeeeeaally long time, so if I seem out of practice *cracks knuckles* it's 'cause I am.
This story is partially inspired by a story on FF.net called "City Lights" and partially inspired by the chick flick movie marathon I engaged in this past weekend. (I also kind of just like writing about cities. It is my dream to live in one someday.) It'll probably start out mostly as Jim's POV, but I'm hoping to throw a little of Pam in there as well. Hope it turns out 53% decent!

Short, after-the-fact disclaimer: If you haven't figured out already, this story is not for those who want an immediate payoff. But just because nothing has really happened between them yet doesn't give the story itself any less merit, it just may not be for those of you who want instant gratification. (Don't you love that I'm explaining this five chapters in?) But I just want to assure you guys that there will be a payoff; I just need you guys to be a little patient. In short, just focus on the journey, and not the destination. I'm trying to make the ride a fun one at least. :) Enjoy!
