The batter hit the ball all right, just not in the right direction, and when he didn’t run, Madeline wrinkled her forehead. “What can the matter be now?”

“‘Tis a foul ball,” Hannish tried to explain.

“It smells?” Madeline asked. “No wonder the batter wants to hit it away and no one wants to catch it.”

If he didn’t adore her before, Tom did now. All the MacGreagors were laughing and that was a sign of approval. Not that he needed their approval, but it certainly would make it easier when he finally got up the nerve to propose marriage. He hoped they would live together in one of the cottages behind Marblestone Mansion, and he couldn’t think of a finer life for either of them. That is, if he got up the nerve, and if she accepted him. First, he had to tell her about his past, and he was still not convinced she would understand.

Hannish tapped Madeline on the shoulder. “Is it not time for you to live at Marblestone?”

Madeline quickly turned to look back and grinned. “Is today too soon?”

“Not too soon for me, is it too soon for you, Mrs. MacGreagor?”

Leesil put a finger on the side of her face and pretended to be thinking it over. “Well, I’ll put up with no tom…foolery. He must not have her out after dark without a chaperone, and if he is to get her home before dark, Tom best leave now.”

“In the middle of the game?” Hannish asked.

Claymore winked at Leesil, “I doubt he shall suffer too terribly.”

“I certainly shall not,” Tom said as he stood up and offered his hand to Madeline. She excitedly took it and held on as the two of them hurried down the bleachers and disappeared around the corner.

“Ah, young love,” Claymore sighed.
