Title: Courage Rating: PG Length: 116 words Competitor: Baird Round/Fight: 1/D Summary: Kel has a confession to make.
“It has to end,” she tells him one evening, before their normal routine can begin.
He’s taken aback. “What brought this on?”
“I can’t do this,” she says, exhaling sharply. He hadn’t even realized that she had held her breath. “It’s not right – not for your wife.”
“Wilina understands,” he says.
Kel shakes her head fiercely. She has never believed his insistence that his marriage is open. “That might be the case, but my betrothed would not.”
He stares at her, blinking rapidly. “Betrothed?”
Her eyes are filled with fear as she nods; she has been worried about his reaction, but was still determined to do the right thing. He can’t help but love her bravery.

Aww. This is the Baird I like - the Baird who doesn't lose his temper very easily, who doesn't sweat the small stuff, and who understands completely.
