Jim and Mr. Beesly sit at the breakfast table. Pam is still in the bedroom getting ready. "Maybe you should talk to her tell her how you feel," Jim says. Mr. Beesly gives him a small smile. "What should I say? Tell me how you feel about Pam." Jim bursts into a smile.
"I love Pam with all of my heart. I always have and I always will. I knew from the second I saw her that she was the one. Even when she was with Roy, I knew. I never gave up on her. Things might have been rough through the years, but I think she knew. She was somewhat surprised when I told her I loved her and I was crushed when she said she couldn't. The first time we kissed at the Dundies I thought my heart was going to jump out of my chest. Same thing on Casino Night." "Then you left?"
"Yeah, but I couldn't stop thinking about her. Everything reminded me of her. I couldn't eat, I couldn't sleep, everything was horrible. I missed all the little things. Like the looks she gave me when Michael was being crazy. Or her smile. Gosh her smile. I used to get lost in her smile, sometimes I still do. And the way her eyes would light up when she talked about her art. I really missed those eyes." "But then you came back."
"Right. Our branch closed down so we all went to Scranton. I had started to date Karen because I never thought I'd ever have a chance with Pam. But I couldn't stop thinking about her. Karen was just a replacement for her. When Pam made her speech at the Beach Games, everything got shaken up. Karen was still questioning if I had feelings for Pam, and I was too. The confidence and honesty that she showed was new for me. I hadn't seen that side of her that she developed after breaking it off with Roy. When she got back together with him for a while, it crushed me. So when she started to show that she wanted us to be close again, I jumped at the chance. And when we hugged, I definitely started to question my relationship with Karen. Pam felt so perfect in my arms and I'd never felt anything with a girl like that before." "And then there was the interview."
"Yeah. I remember sitting there before it and hearing the receptionist answering the phone. And all I could think about was not being able to hear 'Dunder Mifflin, this is Pam' ever again. When I pulled out my folder to show David my numbers, I saw the note that she had written me. It reminded me of all the history and time we had shared, all the memories. Then when David asked where I saw myself in ten years all I could think of was being with Pam. Being together, married, with kids. All I could see was her smile. And I wanted to be the one who put it there. So, I broke up with Karen and went back to try one last time." "And then you asked her out?"
"Yes, and the rest is history. I love her more each and every day. When she walks into a room, I can't look away. The room seems to light up when she walks in. My breath always catches and I still can't believe that she's with me. I fell like the luckiest man in the world. I've never doubted for a second since I met her that Pam is the woman I want to share the rest of my life with. She's my soul mate. I've loved her since we first met, and I know that it was the same for her. She just took a little longer to realize it."
They both smile at each other. "I'm very lucky to have you as my future son-in-law. Pam made a great choice in you." "Thank you sir." "No, thank you. You've helped me a lot." "You're welcome."
Pam walks outside to meet up with her dad. "What happened? What did Jim say?" She has tears in her eyes. "I realized that your mother and I were not truly in love. Jim told me about how much he loves you. How he always has. How his breath catches and he can't look away when you walk into a room. And he told me how he's never doubted, even for a second, that you're the woman he wants to spend the rest of his life with. You are very lucky to have him. I just realized through talking to him that even through our best times, I've never felt as strongly as he does. Do not blame this on him, please. He was very helpful." "Okay." Tears start to fall down her face. They hug each other. "Pam, I hope you know how much Jim loves you." She smiles. "I do." They hug again and she goes back inside.
The elevator doors open and Pam steps out to find Jim. "So, what did he say? Was it my fault?" She looks up at him. "Yeah." His face falls. "He said that you told him how much you love me. About how you feel when I walk in a room, and about how, you've never doubted for a second that I'm the woman you want to spend the rest of your life with. I guess he's never felt that with my mom, even at their best." "You okay?" She nods her head as she starts to cry again. "Yeah." they come together and hug. They pull apart and look at each other. "Jim, I love you so much." He smiles. "You have no idea how much I love you," he says. She smiles, "I think I have a better understanding now." They lean in and kiss.
"Jim, all those things you said, thank you." "You're welcome." She kisses him again. "Hey, it's been a hard day, do you want to go home?" She nods. "Okay, let me go get our stuff." He walks away. She turns towards the camera. "When you're a kid you assume your parents are soul mates. My kids are gonna be right about that." She smiles as she thinks about the kids she and Jim want to have. "I guess it also means that sometimes love affairs look different to the people inside them." She continues to smile and Jim comes back with their stuff. They walk hand-in-hand to the elevator and down to their car.
