No one spoke even though Rhys gave them the chance. I awkwardly stood beside him, waiting to be besieged with questions about Jeremy, but no one asked anything.

"Guys..." Rhys let out a small chuckle. "Either ask something or we'll go inside. We can't just spend the afternoon out here."

"Okay, okay." Nic spoke up first. He looked down at me. "Did Jeremy teach you how to bat?"

I shook my head. "No."

"Then how did you get to be so good?"

I shrugged. "Practice?" Seeing their disbelieving looks, I elaborated. "I spent a lot of time in batting cages. I was...unable to play with my middle school team. But they had cages. I'd go every day."

"So you weren't this good when you were playing in little league?" The tall guy asked.

I glanced away, slightly embarrassed. "I didn't play in little league."
