Thank you for all your time to read and rewievs this fic! You're great!

When the clock showed 2 pm Bill had already showered and now he was shaving. He cleaned his razor and then he splashed water on his face, then he wiped it using a small towel. He looked at himself in the mirror and gasped; Bill used his best perfumes and left the bathroom. He took his wallet and put it into the pocket in his dark blue jeans and left the house. Walk to the Caprica City's Riverwalk took him about twenty minutes. While he was walking, he saw the florist; Bill stopped before the shop window admiring the beauty of flowers. Beauty of nature. Beauty, which was matching to certain red head, who he adore. Bill smiled and walked into the shop. Two minutes later he continued the walk with single red rose in his hand.

Laura left the office and headed to the lift thinking about her date with William Adama. She walked into the lift and pushed the bottom and the lift started going down. Few second later the lift's door opened and she saw Bill with the red rose in his hand. She smiled and left the transporter.

"Hi." She said nearly whispering and still smiling. Bill smiled too and handshake her hand, then he gave her the rose. She took the flower and thanked him, after she smelled the rose, in the meantime watching Bill. He looked great; the dark blue jeans were matching to his eyes and the gray shirt with two undone buttons was contrasting with his skin. He looked so handsome.

"The security guard let me in." He looked around and then he stopped his eyes on her. "So.. ehm.. are you ready?"She nodded so he offered her his arm which she accepted with a lovely smile. Together they left the building, not noticing that the President Adar was watching them.

When they walked into the open air Laura put sunglasses on her nose and smiled to Bill. They passed the fountain, Laura's favorite, and the park, heading into Small Street where the coffee shop was. Bill opened the door and gave Laura 'after you' look, and then he walked in. They sat down at the one of the free table and looked through the menu. After a moment Laura put the menu down and looked at the waitress who showed up several seconds ago. They ordered the coffee and tea and the slice of apple pie to each other.

"I wanted to thank you once again. I wasn't nice and too you. You didn't deserve it." she started after the waitress left theirs table but he interrupted her.

"Let's just not talk about it. What is done, is done." he smiled and the way he did it, she couldn't stop smiling herself.

There was something about him, about his smile. The way his lips were curving into this grin and the sparkle in his eyes. The deep blue eyes of his. Laura couldn't bring herself to stop looking at him. He was the same man she met two years ago, but back then she didn't saw what she saw in him now. She didn't even know what it exactly was. His tendency to rescue her and taking care? Who he could be to her? A friend? A lover? A frak buddy? No, Bill wasn't man like this. Of course he could be her lover, and she could only imagine what he would be like in bed. A slowly, gentle and emotional lover or fast and… No, stop this now Laura. He's a good man, and after Richard I just shouldn't think about him like that. Of course he could be me lover and I want it, BAD. But really is that's all I want? What happened to friendship, romance? The first date? Ok that is our second date, but do I really want him in my bed? Do I really want only a frak buddy? NO, not with him. Bill is special. I don't know how, but with him I just feel different. I can be myself. I can be Laura, just Laura and it feels great. She looked at him again and gave him a shyly smile trying to hide her little embarrassment behind her political façade.

In that moment the waitress brought them theirs order. Laura politely said thank you and took a small slip of the tea.

"So, how was your day?" he started, returning her a smile.

"Yhm… not busy. I've got few meetings but that's all. How was your day?" she asked looking at the pie, while her stomach rumbled. She slowly put her palm on it under a table and took the fork to her second hand. She cut a small part of pie and started to eat.

"My XO came back from Picon."

"XO?" she frowned so Bill only smiled.

"Exclusive Officer and also my second in command on Galactica. " He explained looking straight at her, she was very beautiful, and the sun was lightening up her hair making bright reflections. Her eyes were also shinning. The way she was acting, he could tell she was nervous, her hands which she was trying cover under the table were probably shaking.

"Oh sorry I'm not used to military vocabulary." She said looking at her palms.

"I understand " he gave her a small smile and started drinking a coffee.

"It must be amazing watching the stars for most of the day. I mean I love the stars, the night sky and I am watching it when I got time, but the view like this from Battlestar, it must be impressive."

"Well I have to disappoint you. The ship is designed to the combat and in the command center, we call it CIC, where I'm spending the most of my time, there aren't any … uhm … windows. But we have observation deck, where the view is indeed amazing. You should see it; it's worth every cubit I have, and even more!" He explained looking straight to her eyes.

"If you say so, I think I will. But only if promise to show me it personally." She bite her lower lip, her eyes were shining. Bill smiled and put his hand on hers, which was now lying on the table. He squeezed it lightly.

"You made yourself a deal."

The time went very fast, while they were talking; about almost everything. Bill told her about his life on the Battlestar, battles in which he participated, places he saw, also mention his sons. Laura was listening very carefully; the more they talk, the more she was amazed by him; the way he talk about his adventures and connection with his boys made her feel warm on her heart. They didn't realize how late it was until the waitress told them she had to close the coffee shop. He paid the bill while Laura made sure she looks presentable, Bill eyed at her and she nodded. They left, stopping outside the coffee shop and looking at each other; Laura was the first one who broke off the eye contact looking down with blush on her cheeks, after few seconds she looked at him again. They started walking down the street, occasionally the hands brushing with each other's.

"I really had a great time today, thank you." She said shyly touching his arm. He felt her fingers on the fabric of his collar and grinned offering her his arm, which she took a small smile on her face, leading him in Caprica City's governmental car park.

"Me too. Do you have plans for tomorrow? Maybe we could eat lunch together."

"Hm … I would love to, but unfortunately I have business lunch with union's leader."

"Oh … " He hummed looking down.

They were quiet for several minutes, each one of them didn't really know what to say, the uncomfortable silence was broken by the fact that they reached to their destination point. They stopped in front of her car, she let his arm shyly smiling and looked into his eyes. Bill slowly move forward her, she also took a small step closing the distance by pressing their lips together. Gently, teasing her lips lightly, he opened her mouth; she responded with a smile slowly put her tongue into his mouth, in the same time wrapping her arms around his neck, one of her hand found her way to his hair. He pulled her closer resting his hands: one on her hip, second on the small of her back. They deepened the kiss, his hand started to made his way from her hip to waist and she shivered, Bill frowned, when she quickly pulled away from his body taking step back.

"What is wrong?"

"We can't! This is wrong, I just… I… we… we can't, sorry." She started panic.

"What?" he asked a little bit disorientated.

"I think you should go now. We can't do this, we can't be together." She explained looking for keys to her car in her purse, while Bill took a step back and turned around; he wrapped his arms on his chest and looked at her pressing his lips together. He looked at the ground; his body bristled. Bill took a step forward and grabbed Laura's arm.

"No. I will not go. What do you mean we can't seeing each other?"

"It's not your business, just leave me alone." She opened the car's door, so Bill blocked her way to the vehicle closing the door. Laura flicked with anger, her muscles tensed up, in the defensive gesture, so Bill let her arm and giving her apologizing look he made a small step back; Laura took a deep breath opening her mouth to say something more, but Bill pressed his finger to her lips.

"I won't leave. I want an explanation. Two years ago I didn't ask any questions when you thrown me away from your house but now you won't get rid of me so easily." He said.

"We won't be together, ever. Don't you get it? I don't want to be with you!" she yelled, Bill looked down, eyes was filled with the sadness. He hummed and turned back, leaving her alone.

Laura was observing the man, he was going down the street with his head held low, thinking about something. She hold her breath and realized what had she done. Laura locked the car's door and run after him. It wasn't like she didn't wanted to be with him, of course she was thinking about him, he was a very good man, nice, caring, but she just couldn't start a relationship, not when she was expecting a child, not with him; he didn't deserved to be used like a trash. Few steps later she touched his arm making him stop, after she catch her breath.

"Bill please, it's not like that. I…" she made him look at her. "I really like you, but we shouldn't be in relationship, it wouldn't be fair."

"What are you talking about? I like you too and I really want to get to know you better, start dating… I know I'm not a great catch but I would love to get the chance to know you better Laura."

"I can't Bill, it's not you, it's me. You are the great guy…" she gasped not really know what to say.

"It's because of him? The President?"

"No. Yes. It's complicated!" he shocked his head.

"It's simple Laura, you just…"

"I'm pregnant!" she almost whispered trying not to look at his shocked expression. She felt the blush on her cheek which clearly told she was ashamed. Roslin tangled her hands together looking down.
