Jim and I are sharing a packet of chips, we are leaving the room past Dwight saying hi to him. Dwight calls Jim back and we head over to him. I can already feel the laughter trying to escape me. Jim called me this morning to tell me that he wants to put all of Dwight's things inside the vender machine. I tell him I will give Steve a call and let him know that he is coming in and he will open the vender up for him as Steve owes me a favour. I see Dwight is getting annoyed and I know I need to push this further so I walk up and push him aside, looking inside to see what I want I put some money inside and out slides the pencil cup, Dwight says that his but I tell him I have already brought it and he can't have it back. I knew that Dwight will end up buying his stuff back so I whisper to Jim that I put his wallet in there, He laughs quietly and points to Dwight gesturing to his wallet. Dwight is definitely more annoyed now and I have to stop from laughing, Jim passing him a bag of coins and we walk away laughing high fiving each other.

Camera shows Y/n and Jim sitting next to each other while Jim is holding a piece of paper. "Last week, Michael sent out a mysterious memo." I look over to Jim when he starts speaking. "It's time for our first quarter camaraderie event, so pack a swimsuit, a toothbrush, rubber-soled shoes and a ski mask." "A ski mask and a swimsuit." "So we can rob a bank for him and escape through the sewers." I start laughing. "And brush our teeth. Oh I hope that we are going to somewhere like Bora Bora." Jim looks at me the big eyes. "You think Michael, our boss Michael is taking everyone in the office to Bora Bora." "Why have you got to destroy my hopes Jim?" "If he takes everyone to Bora Bora, I will give you my flat. Deal? " "Deal!" I shake his hand. "If he doesn't I will take you to Bora Bora, Miss Y/l/n." "Promise?" I hold out my pinkie "Promise" He links his pinkie to mine.

I'm with Phyllis trying to figure out where we are going, we have guessed France, New York, Texas, Bora Bora, Spain or Italy. I ask Jim if he wants to ride with the three of us but he said that Katy is going with him, which surprises me because I didn't think they were talking, let alone together, he just nods his head at my face. He ask if the five of us can go together instead and I'll tell him that I would have to ask Bob and Phyllis first because Bob decided that he would be driving but it shouldn't be a problem, he hugs me and thanks and goes to make a call.

We get called into the conference room and I have my fingers crossed on both hands, sitting down at the table, Jim still with me. "We are not going to Bora Bora, so stop praying your silly weirdo." "Shut up, you don't know that" He laughs at me and tries to uncross my fingers as I pull them closer to my chest so he can't reach my hands. Michael tell us we are going on a harbour cruise of Lake Wallempaupack, he says it's a booze cruise. I drop my head onto the table "Why. Why. Why." I say quietly to myself, next to me I hear Jim snort a laugh, I lift my head giving him the evil eye. He hold his hands up in defence mode. "Michael, my sister is having a baby, can I skip the cruise to be with her." "You don't have a sister" "Shut up Jim" I nudge him with my elbow into his ribs. "No Y/n, it is mandatory and that goes for everyone."

Michael talks about crap that I don't care about and then puts on a captain hat, I'm so bored I end up playing with my scrunchy that is still on Jim wrist, while half listen, he looks down at me and smiles. Michael then ends up talking about the Titanic and Jim says he has never seen it, which is a total lie because I made him watch it more than once. I see that Michael is getting angry because he is shouting about the movie and I have to burry my face into Jim's bicep because I'm shaking with laughter. Jim tries his hardest to not laugh and kisses the top of my head to calm me down.
