When Connor had gone off in search of Heather and the baby was napping upstairs, Mick found Megan and regarded her with frustration.

“You let that boy off the hook,” he accused.

“I did no such thing. He needs to work things out with Heather before he worries about any explanations he owes us,” she told him. “Try to keep the goal in mind.”

“And what would that be?” he inquired testily. He’d thought it was getting things settled so he and Megan could move forward with their wedding. Something told him, though, that he’d be wise not to mention that right now.

“Getting Connor, Heather and their son back together.” She gave him a wistful look. “Wouldn’t it be wonderful if that happened before Christmas? I would love for all of us to celebrate the holidays together.”

“Nobody would be happier about that than I would be, but Connor’s a stubborn one, as you perfectly well know. Don’t get your hopes up.” He hesitated, then asked, “What if things don’t work out between them?”

“They will eventually,” she said with confidence. “I’m certain they love each other.”

“And in the meantime, are you and I supposed to sit around and wait?” he asked, because he couldn’t help himself. He needed to know what she had in mind for the two of them.

“Mick, I can’t think about our wedding right now, if that’s what you’re asking.”

He studied her implacable expression, then slowly nodded. “I see. I guess that tells me all I need to know.”

He stood up, walked into the foyer and grabbed his coat, then walked out of the house, slamming the door behind him. Megan had found the perfect excuse for postponing their future yet again. And while he’d once thought he would wait forever to have her back, now he wondered if even that wasn’t a fool’s dream.
