Summary: Five times Bill Adama realised he was in love with Laura Roslin. For unavitasegreta.
She's facing away from him when he comes back into his quarters. The alcohol is still affecting his balance, so he's not as coordinated as he might be, stumbling over the threshold and leaning heavily on the wheel as he seals the hatch. It's only when he turns back around that he notices the way she's sitting, slumped over at the desk in a position that seems nothing short of despondent.
Angry or not, a spark of concern makes him say her name, quietly.
"Laura?"
She jumps, pushing back her chair sharply (bracing for more of the hurtful words they'd exchanged earlier, he's sure). The tear-stains on her face and the thin glint of copper clutched in her outstretched hand shock him into forgetting he was ever mad at her, unable to imagine why he'd ever want to hurt her.
When he takes her in his arms, nothing matters but her.
