Very enjoyable.

his hand finally coming to rest at the small of her back, finally declaring its home there.

What a sweet line.

Thanks so much.

I do like how Bill starts guiding Laura by placing his hand there - it at least speaks to the intimacy of their relationship even on just a friendshippy level.

Oh, this was a charmer!

I love the Bill-Laura interplay, but my favorite parts are actually the Billy-Laura conversations. This was a sweet take on their relationship as semi-confidents.

I so enjoyed this -- THANK YOU.

Sadly, I can't take credit for the Billy/Laura interactions as it's mostly the cut scene, but I think it's such such a great scene between the two of them.

Thank you for reading!

Loved this. As I watched the series, I always wondered if and when they would allow Bill and Laura to be human, and I love your approach to it in this fic (and that deleted scene is hilarious). There's almost a relief for the reader at the end.

Loved this line: She knows she will regret this in the morning, but it wouldn’t be the first time and it might very well be the last time.

Thank you so much! I do feel like we don't get to know Laura as an actual person until Season Two, maybe. I think that's what makes S1 stuff so hard!

She was thinking about Sean Allison. It cannot be denied. :)

Thanks so much for reading and reviewing, I appreciate it so much!

I'm in love with this. When I first read that deleted scene I couldn't believe they had cut it - this fic caters to my love of season one, Billy, and A/R, and I can't thank you enough for that!

“We can’t tell Billy about this,” she says softly.

“Wasn’t something I was thinking about,” he answers

This made me laugh out loud!

I really love to analyze their season one interactions, and so I'm glad you enjoyed it! Thank you for reading and reviewing, it really means a lot.
