Hello! Yes I have started a new story! I'm excited about it and I hope you are too! ;) Anyway, don't worry I'm still working on the After Dundies and Sweet Surprise, so those should be up shortly! Hopefully by the beginning of next week! This is set in season 3, and of course Jim and Karen are dating by this point, (wouldn't be as fun to write if they weren't) and Pam deals with the heartbreak and loneliness without Jim. Enjoy to the max :D

Chapter 1: Bright Colors & Stale Soda

A slight bang erupts me from my thoughts as I lean down and grab my grape soda. Even my break doesn't feel the same anymore. I glance out from the break room, peeking through the kitchen seeing Jim facing towards me. I will never get used to him sitting there, even if I can read the back of Jim's neck. I see his eyes flicker up to mine and my breathing stops completely. Nobody else is visible to me as I continue to stare into his conflicted eyes. I see the old Jim in there. I can almost feel his familiar warm smile or the way he would stare at me when he thought I wasn't looking, or the way his eyes glowed with love on that one night outside the warehouse. Then the new Jim comes out and grazes me with its undefined coldness.

I break the stare feeling his eyes on me as I walk back into the backroom. I slump down into one of the chairs and sigh miserably. I miss him. I mean I really miss him. I feel tears press against my eyelids as I shake my head forcing them away. I feel a soft vein inspire me as I get up in search of a piece of paper. Ironically, in a paper company there isn't much paper lying around to grab. My notebook is at my desk but I didn't really want to go back and get it, not after he caught me staring at him. I give up and grab and napkin right beside the microwave.

I pull out the pencil styled into my air that I had read about in Artist Daily. I slowly start to sketch an outline of a small hand dragging on the surface of the napkin. I cough lightly and grab a taste of my soda.

My drink doesn't even taste the same. My head starts to pound heavy against my skull as my eyes feel as if they might pop out of my head. I rub my head gently. I feel my body weaken just a little more.

My stomach growls and I instinctively place my hand on top of it.

"Hungry Beesly?" I hear him say. My whole body freezes. He felt it too. He felt the hurt the pain; he misses me just like I miss him. He read my mind, he knew I needed help. I'm almost afraid to say anything. Like I'm almost not supposed too. I feel my heart heavy in my chest and I'm sorely shaking.

When I don't respond he comes around and stands in front of the soda machine that opens itself up to me. "Pam are you okay?" his face almost screaming 'panic' if I had waited a little longer. I slowly look up at him, and his expression changes.

"Pam you're so pale, what's wrong?" I feel myself start to bounce into different shades of colors. I don't feel like myself anymore. I don't really feel anything. I feel my breathing coming undone as I somehow get up.

"Bathroom" was all that was said before tripping on the edge of the chair and falling to the ground. I hurtful moan comes out of my mouth as I feel Jim at my side in less than a second.

"Oh Pam!" his face now outlined in the darkness. More panic is read as I move in and out of darkness my body wavering

"Jim" is all I can say before I feel him gather me into his arms trying to get me focused.

The break room light never seemed so bright.
