Phantom hands pulled at her body.  Her heart racing with fear, she awoke with a gasp.  A cold sweat covered her body

"Laura?"

Bill's voice came from the couch, more awake than she would have hoped.  She wondered how long he'd been waiting for her to wake up.  At least he hadn't tried to help the process along.  He'd learned quickly, and quite ( Read more... )

Awww. Bill Adama FTW. I love the way he takes care of her here. He just waits and goes to her, ignoring her cursory protest and soothes her in a very lovely and intimate way.

Thanks for this. Ya know come to think of it we had very similar thoughts on this prompt. : )

Did we? I have to admit I don't read drabbles until mine is posted, cause if I write something similar to someone, I want it to be coincidental, not subconsciously copying someone! Which also means I'll soon be flooding your inbox. Sorry about that.

And yeah, he's just a big softie. I always thought he took care of her no matter what, but in a way that respected her need for independence, even at a time when she can't really have any, you know? I love Bill. Thank you!

We both had a Bill comforts Laura response, but different takes on the what and how.

You have captured a lovely dynamic between them here. There is acceptance from them both of the somewhat unpalatable reality that she suffers the chamalla dreams/visions and an understanding that, in some way, they both need comfort in the face of those dreams. Laura needs the security Bill provides and he needs to know that she is safe, that there is something he can do to ease at least a portion of her suffering.

This beautifully realised scene depicts the bond between them in a very gentle and appealing way. Thank you

I always felt that Bill took more care of her than we've seen, just by his very nature and that it must have clashed with Laura's deep seated need to not depend on anyone. Even if she needed it, and not just in a physical sense, you know? She is a stubborn lady! :)

Thank you!
