Pierce's phone buzzed, and he smoothly answered, "Hello? Yes, this is Pierce." Damian could overhear snippets of conversation about a sudden photoshoot, emphasizing its urgency. After a few moments, Pierce concluded the call and turned his attention back to Damian.

"I'm sorry, Damian, but duty calls. I have to rush for an important photoshoot."

Damian nodded understandingly, "No worries. Duty first. We can catch up some other time."

As Pierce stood up, Damian expected a simple farewell, but Pierce surprised him with a hint of reluctance.

With his signature charming smile, he spoke, "It was great meeting you, Damian. I hope we can continue our conversation later."

As Pierce bid farewell to Damian, Aiden and Asher sent deadly glares towards Pierce, both wearing stern expressions. Pierce, under their intense gazes, couldn't shake a shiver down his spine. 'Why are they glaring at me? They better not get in my way.'

Aiden, seizing the moment, broke the silence with a playful remark. "Hey, Pierce, don't forget about us. You could say goodbye to these fine gentlemen too."

Pierce, desperate to maintain his facade, forced a smile and said his goodbyes to Asher and Aiden. He took one last look at Damian before smiling and leaving. Once he was out of earshot, Damian couldn't help but chuckle.

"That guy is weirder than a three-dollar bill. You know that, right?" He questioned Damian. 

Asher agreed with a nod, while Damian shrugged. 

Aiden and Damian were deeply engrossed in a lively discussion about the new Rocket League season, sharing strategies and excitedly planning their gameplay. Damian was animated, gesturing with enthusiasm as they delved into the intricacies of the game.

Unbeknownst to Damian, Asher was subtly observing him, his gaze fixed on Damian's expressive face. Aiden, always quick to catch onto his brother's silent actions, couldn't help but tease Asher about his obvious interest.

With a sly grin, he remarked, "Asher, my man, you're staring at Damian like a wolf eyeing a bunny. What's going on there? You usually don't show this much interest in someone."

Asher, caught off guard, attempted to play it cool. He ran a hand through his hair, "Just appreciating the Rocket League strategies."

Aiden raised an eyebrow, his smirk widening, "Sure, sure. Whatever you say, but I'd be careful not to shoot laser beams with those eyes of yours. Damian might start thinking you're plotting some grand strategy against him."

As Aiden playfully teased Asher about his intense gaze, Damian, who had been focused on the Rocket League discussion, suddenly felt a warmth creeping up his cheeks. A subtle blush tinted his features, but he maintained his composure.

He quirked an eyebrow and teased Asher, "Hey, if you're done staring, you might want to save that intense gaze for the Rocket League screen. It's not going to score goals for you, you know." Damian chuckled, trying to ease any tension with humor while acknowledging the playful banter.

Asher, maintaining his composed demeanor, shot back with a dry wit, "I'll save the intense gaze for something more interesting." He delivered the remark with a subtle smirk, his tone carrying a hint of amusement.

Damian, with a playful smirk, retorted, "Well, I must be a fascinating bunny then, to capture such intense attention from the mighty wolf over here."

Aiden, caught in the crossfire of their banter, stared back and forth between Damian and Asher as they exchanged playful remarks, his amusement growing with each quip.
