if you read the chapter "groupchat pt.2" then this is when pam says she's coming over to jim's house to talk to him. if you didn't it doesn't change anything but i would if i was you

i look at my screen with wide eyes. jim is single and so am i. it would be stupid to let this go right?
i text:
"jim can i come over i need to talk to you?"

he respond that i can so i hop in my car and start driving. my heart is beating at a thousand miles an hour and i'm getting nervous.

maybe he doesn't like me anymore and he broke up with karen for a different reason? god i hope it's not that.

i listen to the music on the radio. i feel like every song i hear is about him.

i park my car in the street in front of his house. i stay in my car for a long minute before finding the courage to get out. i walk to the door and take in a deep breath before knocking on the door. i knock so lightly that i don't think he heard me. i knock again, louder than before.

i stand there, hoping i won't pass out from the stress. my hands are sweaty and my heart is pounding so hard that i feel it in my toes. the door opens in front of me.

i hear a knock on the door. i wait a minute or 2 before i open it. i don't know why but i don't have the courage to face her. i know it's pam. who else could it be?

i slowly turn the knob and open the door. i lean in the doorway and look at pam. she looks more nervous than i've ever saw her.

"hey jim"
"hi pam" i say before rubbing the back of my neck awkwardly.
i walk back a bit so she can come in. she does.

"do you want a drink or something?"
"no it's fine, uh can we sit down"

i nod and we walk to the living room. i sit on the couch, her next to me.

"why'd you break up with her?" she asks me.
"i... i don't know..."
"i need to tell you something but i can't tell you if you're staring at me"
"oh sorry yeah..."
"turn around"

i do and she does too. our backs are touching and we're sitting indian style.

"jim did you break up with her because of me"
"i- i don't know maybe i did..."
"did you find the note i left in your documents?"
"it's part of why i dumped her"
"really?"
"yeah"
"jim..."

her arm is laying to her side so i grab her hand, still not seeing her, since we're back-to-back.
she intertwine her finger with mine.

"you know what you told me on casino night"
"yeah..."
"do you still feel it"
"i never stopped feeling it"
"i never stopped loving you either"

i turn around. she's still sitting, facing away from me. i gently touch her arm.

"pam..."

she turns around, finally facing me. she's still looking down at her lap.

"jim..."

we're way closer than we should. our knees are touching and our faces are inches away.
she lifts her head to look at me. we make eye contact for a while. not knowing what to do or say.

i catch her staring at my lips, while licking hers. a piece of her hair is covering the side of her face so i tuck it behind her ear.

after a moment of consideration, i decide to lean in and to kiss her. i put my hands on her waist. she kisses me back, putting her hands on my neck. i pull her onto my lap and she's straddling me. because of the brusque movement, i fall back a bit, making her fall on me.
