Bill was sitting in front of his desk in his cabin and reading the paperwork. From time to time he was also taking the gulps of Ambrosia. Staring at his report he couldn't focus on it. His mind was occupied by something else or someone else. The certain red head with amazing green eyes and beautiful smile. Now she was laying in sickbay probably still unconscious and he was here, in his cabin not with her like he should be. But Cottle thrown him away and he couldn't do anything. Just sit here and waiting for his call. Bill stood up from a chair and started walking through the living room. Laura. He was thinking only about her. What was the matter with her? She was a perfectly health? Her cancer couldn't just came back. Not like this, not after they had been through. Not now! Not after Baltar, New Caprica, Cylcon's attack and not after like me falling in love with her. Not when I didn't tell her. Bill stop that! She is not dying, she only collapsed. Stay positive. Everything will be all right. Just give Cottle a little bit more time, he will call you soon. He pull back his thoughts when the phone started ringing. He came closer and pick up the phone.

"Adama. Ok. I'm on my way." He hung up the phone and went to the infirmary.

He was walking through corridor of Battlestar Galactica. The people were looking at him and smiling. This is odd. He told to himself. His crew were never smiling to him. Something must have happened. He thought. He reached to the sickbay a few minutes later still wondering what is going on. He walked into Cottle's office and tried toclear his mind. Now he had to think about Laura. He looked around and sat in the chair waiting for a doctor.

"Huh… You're already here Admiral" said doctor walking through the door with the cigarette in mouth.

"How is the President?"he asked. Dr Cottle came closer to him and sat on the edge of the desk. Then he put out the cigarette in the ashtray on his left.

"She's awake. I gave her some pills. She is overtired and her immune system is still recovering from the stomach flu which she had last week. She has to slow down." Doctor said and took some files from desk. He stood up and went to the door. Before he had stepped any further he turned around to Admiral Adama. "By the way congratulations Bill. I am really happy for you." And then he left the office.

Adama was sitting there a little bit longer. When he finally stood up from the chair and left the office he stopped near the presidential bed. He silently took a chair and sat next to her bed. She was half sitting and half lying on the bed with a book in her hands. She didn't notice him in the first place so he could watch her moves. She moved her legs under the sheet and smirk to the book. Then she turned over the page and she put a curly lock of out off her hair behind her ear. She was the most gorgeous women he had ever met, but still she has been his boss and the president. She couldn't afford to romantic relationship with him, even if he wanted it. Wanted her. She was something that was outside his range.

"You'll be staring at me all day long or you intend to say something?" she teased and put the book on the locker. Then she smiled sweetly to him. He took a deep breath and smiled back.

"How are you feeling?"

"Good." she replied and looked at Bill. He was in this room, but his mind was somewhere else. "What are you thinking about?" he didn't respond so she asked him again. " Bill! What are you thinking about?"

"What?" she rolled her eyes. "Oh right. The people are acting strange today. I'm wondering what had happened."

"Oh please Bill. People are always acting strange. That's the way it is. Why do you thinking that something had happened?" she looked at him taking her glasses from her nose.

"Maybe it's silly but they were smiling to me." He respond and she started giggling.

"Smiling? And you came up with the theory that something must had happened?" he nodded as she was continued. " I suggest you Admiral smiled them back. If you excuse me I'm little tired."

"Of course Madam President." He stood up and kissed her forehead then he turned back and headed to the exit. " Oh and Bill?" he heard behind his back a seductive and gentle voice. He turned around and glanced at Laura. "Smile." And he did.

Lee was in his office and planning the next CAP when he saw Starbuck standing in the doorway.

"What do you want Kara?"he asked.

"Have you heard the news?"

"What news? I've just finished my CAP, so no I didn't." he answered and look at her. She take a few steps to came closer to him.

"You will be have a new mummy!"she announced him and smirk. Then she looked at him and started laughing when she saw his jaw dropped to the floor. He was definitely in shock. And it entertained her.

"What's so funny about this Starbuck? Is it one of your stupid jokes? So guess what! It's not funny!" he yelled.

"No. I swear I don't have anything to do with it." She raised her hands and cleared her throat. " You know that the whole fleet are talking about it. The Vice-President announced the press that the Old Man and President Roslin are getting married. I was in shocked when I heard that, well maybe not like you are, but still. So Lee you gonna have a new mummy, are you happy?"

Major Adama put the paper work on the desk and ignored Starbuck got out from office. He turned left and then he changed the cordials going straight way to his CO quarters. He didn't know what to think about it. And why his father didn't tell him? He was confused and the best thing which he had to do, was ask his father about this situation. He found himself in front of the hatch to his father quarter, he didn't knocked. He opened the hatch and came in. The close the hatch behind him then he walked to the coach. He sat down and decided to wait for the Admiral. Sometime later he heard opening the hatch, so he stood up. He saw his father. The Admiral saw him too, he came closer to his son and sat at the coach. Lee did the same thing.

"I'm assure that this is not a social visit? So what happened son?" he said.

Straight to business. Lee thought then cleared his throat and said. "Why you didn't tell me? I'm your son and I have a right to know. You really wanted to keep the secret forever? I don't recognize you. What have I ever done to you that I don't deserve for a honest? Huh? Answer me , father?"

Bill didn't said anything, he didn't know what was going on. Why the frak is Lee accusing me and for what? I didn't do anything wrong, or maybe I did?

"You didn't want talk, ok. I get it. I'm sorry that you didn't tell me and I have to find out about your wedding from Kara. So I will leave now and I thing that I must congratulate you. I'm really happy for you and the President." He stood up and started moving to the exit when his father hand on his arm stopped him.

"Lee what the frak are you talking about?"

"You and the President are engaged to get married. The whole fleet are talking about this. Zerek told the press after the Quorum meeting."

"He do WHAT?" Bill raised his eyebrow and continued. " Me and Laura aren't engaged. Frak, Lee she is my boss! I can't married her even if I want to." And I really want to. He added to himself. " I don't know what the frakking Vice-President told the press but it's not true. You should know that, I'm your father."

"Dad I believe you." He sad to his father. " What are you going to do now? The President know about this?"

"I don't know son, I don't know. For now she has to rest and I don't want to bother her with this. I think I should talk to Zerek." He said and took a deep breath. Whatever this terrorist came up with I have to make it right.
