Once she saw he had settled down, Scarlett said, \u201cLet\u2019s head back then.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Damian gave a terse nod. \u201cYeah.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, Vincent and Daniel rejoined Sabrina, who was dabbing at her moved by the proposal she\u2019d witnessed.\u00a0<\/p>\n

still visibly\u00a0<\/p>\n
Daniel\u2019s foul mood evaporated the instant he saw her. A wide, affectionate grin spread across his face.\u00a0<\/p>\n
As he got closer and noticed her teary eyes, he couldn\u2019t resist teasing her. \u201cGetting this emotional over someone else\u2019s proposal? What are you going to do when it\u2019s your turn? Turn into a complete puddle?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sabrina turned to him, feigning annoyance. \u201cOh, so you\u2019re making fun of me now?\u201d she said, playfully swatting at his arm.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Daniel dodged the light hit, prompting Sabrina to stomp her foot in mock frustration. \u201cThree\u2026 two\u2026\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Before she could reach \u201cone\u201c, Daniel sighed in surrender and stood still. \u201cCome on, Sabrina, I\u2019m not making fun of you,\u201d he explained, his tone softening. \u201cI just think you\u2019re adorable when you\u2019re touched.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Satisfied, Sabrina reached up and pinched his cheek. \u201cYou\u2019re such a smooth talker.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Daniel winced but didn\u2019t pull away, a sense of contentment washing over him. A red mark bloomed where she\u2019d pinched him, the surrounding skin flushing slightly.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Seeing his reddened cheek, Sabrina couldn\u2019t help but smile.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Vincent watched their familiar banter with detached calm, feeling no particular way about their closeness.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Once their little exchange settled, he asked Sabrina, \u201cDid you manage to record the whole thing earlier?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
She turned her attention to him and nodded. \u201cYes, got all of it. It was really beautiful.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
They had stumbled upon the proposal during their walk, and it was Sabrina who had suggested they go down for a closer look. Captivated by the romantic scene, she\u2019d decided to film it.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Just then, Harris walked up to the group. He seemed to have bought something, carefully tucking it into his pants pocket as he approached.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Noticing his secretive manner, Daniel\u2019s curiosity was piqued. \u201cWhat\u2019s with the mystery, Harris? Got a little secret? Or maybe a little crush?\u201d he prodded with a grin.\u00a0<\/p>\n
At his words, Sabrina instinctively glanced over, a faint blush coloring her cheeks.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Having been around Vincent\u2019s circle for years, she was well aware of Daniel\u2019s feelings for her. She had assumed, perhaps, that Harris might feel similarly.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Hearing the tease, Harris paused mid\u2013step before continuing toward them. Once he stopped, he offered Daniel a casual smile. \u201cJust took a walk around the block. Saw a quirky little trinket and bought it on impulse.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Daniel stepped forward, making a playful grab for the pocket. Harris swiftly sidestepped, shielding it protectively.\u00a0<\/p>\n
His evasiveness only fueled Daniel\u2019s interest. \u201cWhat is it, seriously? Just show us!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Harris kept his hand over the pocket. \u201cIt\u2019s nothing special.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Daniel squinted at him, his gossip\u2013mode fully engaged. \u201cWhat, is it really for a secret crush or something?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cNone of your business,\u201d Harris retorted with a light scoff.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Daniel looked at him with exaggerated surprise. \u201cWait, do you actually have someone you like?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Annoyed but amused, Harris finally muttered, \u201cYeah. Maybe.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Hearing the admission, Daniel slung an arm around Harris\u2018 shoulders. \u201cWho is it? Do I know her?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Vincent and Sabrina had been following the conversation. Vincent wasn\u2019t one for gossip, but he\u2019d never heard Harris mention liking anyone before, so his interest was mildly piqued.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sabrina watched Harris with heightened curiosity, convinced he wouldn\u2019t reveal the name\u2014 after all, how could he admit to liking his best friend\u2019s girl?\u00a0<\/p>\n
Then, she heard Harris answer Daniel. \u201cNot telling. At least, not until I actually have a chance with her. I\u2019ll let everyone know then.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Harris was being unusually tight\u2013lipped, so Daniel finally dropped it, turning instead to Vincent to complain. \u201cVincent, look at Harris, keeping secrets from us now,\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Vincent offered a faint smile and looked at Harris. \u201cI genuinely haven\u2019t heard you talk about anyone before. You must be pretty serious this time.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

The tips of Harris\u2018 ears turned pink. He nodded. \u201cYeah. She\u2019s\u2026 she\u2019s just really captivating. Even the way she gets annoyed is kind of cute.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Upon hearing that description, Sabrina\u2013who had been quietly basking in the assumption of being a secret object of affection\u2013suddenly looked up.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She stared at Harris, a slow realization dawning\u2013the person he was talking about probably wasn\u2019t her at all.\u00a0<\/p>\n
