He’d loved her too.
This is a bittersweet piece about how Rodney and Laura's friendship turns into love, but how fear means that they never get the chance to be together. After one night together Rodney returns to Atlantis to find that Laura is back with Carson and that there relationship has become much more serious. Laura struggles with how to deal with her feelings for the two men and Rodney later sacrifices his own feelings to help Carson. Una_spectre has done a beautiful job in writing this and it will make you feel for all the characters involved, because no one is the bad guy, but someone will lose. There are happy moments however, and some great team moments. The friendship between Carson and Rodney is also really well portrayed

Rodney stared at her, “I love you,” he blurted out, his arms tightening around her, “And I can’t not see you every day.”
Laura stared at him tears springing to her eyes, “I love you too,” she gasped, her breathing rasping and wet, “I love both of you and I was always afraid what would happen if you ever said those words to me.”
“Well we’re going to find out,” he replied, “Because the Daedalus will be here and you’re going to be fine.”
Rodney could feel her breathing slow and he tried desperately to find something in the medical kit that could help but there was nothing. She was fading fast and Rodney pulled her closer to him his cheek resting against her hair.
“The night in the Jumper,” he murmured to her, “I realised I was in love with you then. I wish I’d told you, I wish…”
“I wish you had too,” she whispered, her voice so quiet he wouldn’t have heard it if they hadn’t been cuddled together, “I would like to have known what could have been.”
Rodney closed his eyes, “Me too.”
