(25 years before Gears of War 4)
It was over the war had finally been won Sera was free at last but it felt different everyone was on guard as they usually were but what they didn't realize was that they didn't have to be afraid of death and loss and they could finally start rebuilding again and where better else to start than the Island you're stuck on Azura. After Marcus's and Anya's embrace in front of the Serano ocean while everyone watched in awe Baird headed back to the hotel their new shelter for the time being when he saw something that caught his eye it was Sam she was walking along the the beach alone he knew he shouldn't but he went up to her anyways. "Never took you as the lonely type" he called out as he walked towards her she turned around and laughed "What's it to you Blondie" she replied "Does it matter" Baird said "Well ya it kin-….wait a second" she paused "Are you making small talk Baird?" She asked and within moments his face went red she chuckled "shouldn't you be with Cole or are you purposely choosing to spend time with me?" she asked "What are you expecting me to say" Baird said in a soft voice "Listen I know you may not feel the same way but this war…it took such a big toll on everyone I lost so much and I know you have too but on my way walking towards you something occurred to me life goes by so fast and In case anything happens to you or me I just wanted you to know that when I first met you there was something about you that just pissed me of every time I saw you but now your all I have left" it sounded so weird saying that and the look on Sam's face made him wish he was never born. "Baird" she laughed so hard she could barely finish her sentence " your telling me you have feeling for me " she said while still trying to hold in her laughter" "yes" he said in a low voice after she stopped laughing she had to say it "I can't believe it I finally made you break your tough guy image" she laughed Baird stood there looking at the sand a little confused but more hurt Sam saw this and immediately felt bad she was trying to piss him off for fun like they normally did to each other but this time it was serious Baird really did have feelings for her so she walked up to him and put both her hands on his waist and stared him in his deep ocean blue eyes and said "listen I know it's been hard" she was fighting the urge to kiss him so she ran her soft tanned hand against his cheek and completed her sentence with "I think it would be good for both of us to be with each other tonight you know cause your emotional self needs me right?" Sam said trying not to sound to cheesy "Right" Baird said "so are you to gonna kiss or what" Anya said "Oh we were jus-.." Baird said desperately trying to come up with and excuse as he was shocked and wondered how long Anya had been there He was cut of as Sam's Lips came in contact with his "That good enough for you Anya?" asked Sam jokingly" I'll leave you two alone" Anya Laughed and walked away " shall we head back to my room" Sam asked "One more thing" Baird said He kissed her again it was long and it was perfect because the moon decided to shine on them and them only at that exact moment.
