Laura was a basket case. Bill had been plagued with flashbacks since his return.

He was running away for the sound of metal pounding against the deck. A second later it was gone. He was in CIC with a gun at his head. Then he was looking down at himself lying in puddle of his own blood, dying with Laura and Lee holding him screaming and crying.

Bill sat up like a bolt with sweat pouring down his face and breathing heavily.

"It's alright Bill you're safe here with me."

Bill just leaned into Laura's embrace and kissed her lightly.
