Pam is understandably panicking.
It's been roughly six months since Pam and Jim have said I love you to each other during the Casino Night and she couldn't be happier. They fight sometimes, yes but she believes more and more that she made the right decision choosing Jim. He's the perfect guy for her. So kind and compassionate and caring. He goes above and beyond for her. No one has ever gone out and got pain medication for her during her period or holding her hand through an emergency hospital visit where she was in intense pain which turned out to be gall stones. That was definitely scary.
How he runs a bath for her when he knows Michael's made it difficult for her. He makes her laugh like no tomorrow and she couldn't see her life without him. Her at her easel at night, painting and sketching and him watching a basketball game. She didn't want to imagine her life where he left. She tries not to think about if he broke up with her. She tries to make him the happiest she can so he wouldn't get swayed by other pretty girls.
She thinks they have a pretty good thing going on.
But this Scranton closing thing, it's making her nervous. Scared actually.
Jim finds her crying in what is her old bedroom. She's been sleeping in Jim's bed.
She looks up as he comes in. She wipes at her face. She was hoping he wouldn't find her; a new basketball game is on.
"Pam?" He sat next to her against the wall and drew her against him, her head resting on his chest, her cuddling into him affectionately. "What's wrong?" He pecked her head, rubbing her shoulder.
"I don't know what to do if Dunder Mifflin closes. Who would want a stupid secretary from a paper company?" She finishes her sentence and starts sobbing again.
She pulls away and buries her face in her hands and starts crying in earnest.
"Hey, hey..." Jim pulls her hands away from her face. He wipes away the tears. "Pam, honey, nothing's set in stone yet. Something could change." He tells her, looking into her eyes.
"I can't help it... I'm so scared." He pulls her into his lap and wraps his arms around her, her head coming naturally into his neck.
"I know, darling. But let's stop worrying about it until it happens. We have some savings until we find other jobs. Maybe it could be a fresh start." She sniffs. He shuffles her and lifts her up with him, startling her and grabbing onto his shoulder. He heads out to the living room and sets her on the couch and flicking on the dvd player and putting in Legally Blonde and getting some wine for her.
"What about the game?" She looks up at him with big eyes.
"This is more important." He cuddles next to her and lets her lean on him for the duration of admittedly not his favorite movie, but Pam likes it and that's enough for him.
