Everyone could see that Abby was in love with Connor ever since they started the ARC. But no-one apart from them knew why. As it was something they wanted to keep between themselves. But people came to understand, the first time people saw their love was at their wedding. When they were seen as husband and wife. On their first dance you could see the love in their eyes as they danced in tune with every move. After that it was clear to everyone that their love was real. People started to leave them alone when they were in each other's offices or after an anomaly mission. Then there was the birth of their first child that placed the icing on the cake. As it showed that everyone can be truly happy. Even the geek and his animal loving wife could be happy. However it was the sad things that brought them together more. Such as the passing of Jack (Abby's baby brother). He was killed in a bomb explosion in Afghanistan. Now Abby was the last Maitland left. She was never truly alone as she had Connor and Jessica Emily Temple to live for. What came next was a shock. Connor Temple died happy with his wife, daughter and all his friend's at his bedside. It was a result of an anomaly inside ARC and a bust up with a Raptor. He had been trying to protect Abby and little did he know his second child. The boy was named Connor James Matt Temple.
When Abby was 70 she slowly started to melt away. She had never loved another man or for that matter looked at a man the way she looked at Connor. That was it they both lived being loved by each other and their friends.
Together they were silver and gold. Always One.
