This is something in my mind as a filler from when we see Roslin cry and then Adama going to Starbuck

Disclaimer: I don't own a thing…. I just put them in different situations.

Yes the wheels just turn and turn in my head.

Laura sat at the table in Adama's quarters reading a report and wondering, not for the first time, why she bothered to read them in the first place. They never stopped. Report after endless report. As long as the Quorum could find things to complain about Roslin would have to read them. She hated it. The only time she could get any work done was when she was in Bill Adama's quarters. It was strange but this was the only time she could concentrate. Good thing Adama was over at his desk and he could... 'No, Laura work first, sex with Adama later.' She thought and forced her mind back to the task at hand.

Ten minutes later Laura had read the same sentence for the hundredth time. "FRAK IT! I'm done. No more bitching and complaining for me." Laura shouted and tossed the report across the table.

Bill looked up to see Laura drop her forehead on the table and move it from side to side. He rose from his desk and walked over to her and leaned over her to whisper in her ear. "What seems to be the problem?"

"Too much bitching and complaining from the Quorum." Laura's reply was little muffled but Bill heard her none the less.

He placed his hands on her shoulders and pulled her back into a sitting position where he began to massage her temples for her. She leaned her head back and enjoyed the feel of his nimble fingers working out the stress.

"Hmm how did I manage stress with out you?" She breathed out and covered his fingers with her own slowly moving them down her neck and then to her shoulders. Oh yeah she could get lost in the feel of his fingers. There was something about them that had a way of melting the stress from her body.

"What's wrong?" Bill asked

"People are annoying." Laura replied and arched her back when Bill found a bundle of nerves that loosened under his skilled hands.

"Some people aren't that bad." He responded and dug his fingers in a little harder making her moan.

"The Quorum aren't people."

"Then what are they?" Bill asked.

"Harpies. That's what they are; little winged demons intent on pissing me off. Ooh a little harder right there." Laura pulled his fingers to the below her right shoulder blade.

"You should have done this instead." Laura commented and Bill immediately stopped.

"What'd I say?" She asked and got up to look at him.

"Nothing, but if I had chosen this as a profession then you and i would never have met."

"We would have met. You wanna know why?" Roslin asked.

"Enlighten me." He said taking a step closer to her.

"You and I were meant to meet. Our lives have been intertwined and we now have a shared destiny. That destiny is to find Earth. It doesn't matter who we are in this life or the lives past this was always meant to be ours. Earth is within our grasp. I can almost taste it." Laura whispered closing her mouth over his and letting him know how much she appreciated being with him. her hands slid up his strong arms and around his neck holding him closer to her.

Adama wrapped his arms around Laura's waist and walked backwards toward the rack where they had been so many times before. The first time came to Bill like a flash. Even though he had never touched her so intimately Adama knew her from the first moment. He knew the way she would react to the lightest caress to a hard kiss.

Laura had just begun to unbutton his uniform jacket when the wireless buzzed. Before Bill could get his hands on it Laura had it up to her ear and listening to the voice on the other end.

"Lau..." Bill tried to ask for the phone but Laura put her hand over his mouth to silence him.

"Saul, the Admiral is otherwise engaged at the moment. Call back later." Laura said and listened to what Saul said.

"Are you going to frak his brains out?"

"No Saul."

"How long are you going to keep him tied up? Figuratively speaking of course."

"Three hours at the latest." Laura replied and replaced the receiver and removed her hand from Adama's mouth.

"Did you have to do that?" Bill asked and pulled her closer so he could feel the heat from her body.

"Yes, because I want you all to myself... for a little while. At least until the Fleet is attacked and we have to leave this rack." Laura replied and leaned down for a kiss she knew would come sooner or later. She smiled at him as Bill drew her down and kissed her for all she was worth. The fire that had burned in her flared through he veins when Adama's skilled hands found the buttons of her blouse. Things took their natural course. Lust was a constant with Laura and Bill but now they had love to through into the mix and that made the joining all the more sweeter.

He was careful not to apply to much pressure in her weakened condition. She had told him on the Baseship that she wouldn't break but he was still careful no matter how hard she tried he wouldn't crack even during sex. She admired that and loved him even more.

THREE HOURS LATER

Adama was roused out of sleep by a persistent buzzing. Belatedly he realized that it was the wireless and he had to reach over his head cause Laura was still sleeping with he head resting on her chest.

"Adama."

"I see the President let you up for air." Saul said and chuckled when he heard his friend growl.

"I was never out of air."

"I hoped you locked the hatch this time." Saul replied.

"Yeah yeah. Look she's still sleeping so if you are quite amused we can continue this tomorrow." Adama hung up on Saul before he could get another smart comment in.

He settled back down and pulled Laura closer to him. Bill breathed in her scent and closed his eyes savoring the atmosphere. There was nothing like a woman on top to make a man feel appreciated. He told her that she would be on top due to her weakened condition and the fact that he liked powerful women to be in charge. Laura was as powerful as they came and he loved every minute he had with her. That thought followed him into sleep once more with Laura at his side and the scent of her lulling him deeper and deeper into sleep.
