Summary: She broke his heart two years ago. Now the work at the same table. The story of Ryan's and Pam's relationship from courtship to heartbreak to renewed love. Sort of AU.
Author's Note: I personally also love Jim/ Pam (like almost everybody on the planet). However, I don't plan on writing Jim/ Pam fanfiction because I don't think I can do the show justice. I, however, do also love Ryan/ Pam which inspired this fanfiction. The prologue is set in Season 5's Dream Team episode, after the prologue it will go back to Season 3. I don't know when the next update will be. Might be until June. I'd really like advice though. Also I would like opinions on whether I should use first person narration. This is my first fanfic. And yes Jim and Pam are engaged in the prologue. Once again, constructive criticism welcomed.

Prologue
Why did I think this was going to be a good idea. Hoping to calm him down, Pam told Michael, "You know Michael, when I feel overwhelmed." Before she could finish, Michael interrupted, "I'm not overwhelmed."
She had forgotten how much dealing with Michael was like dealing with a five-year-old. Ok Beesly, deep breaths. "I know, I'm just saying that when I feel overwhelmed, I like to write a list and then start with the easy stuff."
"Whatever makes you calms you calm down."
List
1) Work out.
2) Eat an enormous breakfast.
Michael, catching onto Pam's game responded, "Don't patronize me, Pam." Exasperatedly, she responds "I really think you should get dressed."
"I can't get dressed. I have to much to do before I get dressed. I need a hundred clients."
"We need one realistic thing that we can do today."
"Assemble a sales team. A sales dream team."
"Ryan." A pair of bright blue eyes flash before her. Deep breaths.
"What? No. Why?"
"Because he's everything I'm not and everything I am. He's the total package." His voice, as if a distant memory and matched with the image of his smirking face fills her ears, "You know, Beesyly, I'm the total package."
"No we are not hiring Ryan." I can't.
What is Michael doing? He's been in the bowling alley for over ten minutes. Vikram seems to have noticed too.
"Is it possible he's bowling. I mean you know him better than I do."
That does sound like Michael.
Sighing, Pam responds, "It's possible." Better go after him.
Walking into the bowling alley, she sees Michael standing by the counter.
"Michael what are you doing?"
And then she sees those bright blue eyes.
"Hey, Ryan."
They flicker to her and in a brief moment under those bright blue eyes she sees flickers of joy, pain, anger, and heartbreak...
"Hey, you."
And love.
Thanks for reading.
