BXBX NOVEL Chapter 85: Back to Pierre's home
Especially the strikes he unleashed, which were unlike anything they had seen until now, left spectators in a state of pure astonishment. The sheer power and precision behind each shot was unparalleled.
The team, immersed in the joyous celebration, made their way to a bustling bar. Laughter and brotherhood filled the air as they reveled in their triumph. Parkar, brimming with happiness, shared a moment with Jaegar, clinking beer glasses in a toast to their victory. The atmosphere was alive with shared elation, a tangible connection that transcended words.
Amidst the festivities, Jaegar found himself immersed in the spirit of the moment. He enjoyed the taste of the beer, finding it surprisingly satisfying. Glass after glass, he maintained a steady stance, the alcohol not seeming to have a significant effect on him. He sat among his teammates, relishing in the sense of accomplishment and unity that surrounded them.
As the night progressed, Jaegar\'s inhibitions gave way to a playful and carefree demeanor. He engaged in light-hearted banter with Pierre, his words drawn out and laced with intoxication.
With a charming smile, he asked Pierre if he had appeared cool during the game. The amusement of the situation was evident as Jaegar sought validation in his inebriated state.
Pierre, his own excitement evident, assured Jaegar, "Yeah man, totally cool. So cool that all the girls were ready to fall head over heels for you."
Jaegar made a curious face. Sensing his friends envy, he said, "Pierre, tell me who you want to impress tonight. I\'ll make sure to introduce you as the most charming person in the room."
Although it felt nice, he quickly dismissed the thought as he sensed Jennifer\'s ominous murder aura as she glared at him.
She turned to Jaegar and asked him, "Then what about me, Jaegar?"
"Oh, Jenny," he said, his tone changing into a playful one. "Dear Jen, you should work on your charm a little more, so that this fool will have no room left for any thoughts about other girls."
Jennifer\'s eyes narrowed, and a mischievous smile played on her lips as she replied, "Oh, don\'t worry, Jaegar. I have a few tricks up my sleeve that will make sure he only has eyes for me."
Jennifer\'s glare held a hint of both amusement and reproach as she addressed Jaegar\'s suggestion.
Her demeanor softened into a laugh as she acknowledged his antics. The friendship between the trio was unmistakable, their bond strengthened by the shared experiences and the lightheartedness of the evening.
Pierre, caught between Jaegar\'s exuberance and Jennifer\'s amused gaze, found himself enjoying the unique dynamics of their friendship. His excitement was momentarily replaced by a sense of caution as Jennifer emitted a subtle wave of murderous intent. Her playful glare and assertive tone served as a gentle reminder to keep the situation in check.
Jaegar\'s intoxicated enthusiasm remained unchecked, prompting Pierre to offer a piece of advice. He suggested, with a knowing smile, "Jaegar, my man, I think it\'s best you don\'t talk anymore."
Heeding Pierre\'s counsel, Jaegar let out a mock dramatic sigh, playfully complying with his friend\'s suggestion by closing his mouth with his hand.
The trio continued their journey home, the alcohol-induced merriment serving as the backdrop. As they walked the streets together, Jaegar\'s speech remained slightly slurred but jovial. His interactions with Pierre and Jennifer carried an air of joy.
Pierre and Jennifer guided Jaegar with care, ensuring that they all reached home. Their laughter and conversation provided a comforting rhythm to the night\'s end. In the midst of the celebration, under the night sky, they headed back home.
Upon arriving at the house, Fiona greeted them at the door. Her eyes fell upon Jaegar, who exhibited a slight unsteadiness in his stance.
A smile crossed her lips as she observed him and his jovial state. Jaegar\'s voice carried a playful tone as he addressed Fiona by her last name, slightly swaying as he spoke. With a humorous expression, he announced their arrival, "Mrs. Selfridges, we are home."
Fiona\'s laughter rang out in response to his greeting. She couldn\'t help but find amusement in his slightly tipsy demeanor. With an affectionate and light-hearted tone, she addressed the situation, "Oh dear, just how much did he drink?" Her observation was met with a knowing nod from Pierre, who confirmed that Jaegar had indeed indulged quite a bit.
Taking charge, Pierre mentioned his intention to guide Jaegar to his room.
Fiona offered her assistance, sensing that Pierre might need some help. Pierre, though typically sturdy, had his back bothering him. She inquired about his well-being, "Do you need any help?" The strain from assisting Jaegar was evident in Pierre\'s response, as he admitted, "Yeah, I think so."
Jaegar, although seemingly a bit intoxicated, made his way over to the couch. He turned his attention to Pierre and Jennifer, and in a teasing tone, he voiced out, "Pierre, my dear friend, you should go rest, Jenny. I will be fine. I will take care of myself." His words carried a sense of assurance.
Pierre, with genuine concern, attempted to assist Jaegar, but the latter was adamant about his independence. He encouraged Pierre and Jennifer to retire to their respective rooms, emphasizing that he could manage on his own. His insistence had a touch of humor to it, an acknowledgment of his slightly inebriated state.
Observing the friendly interaction between the trio, Fiona chimed in, her maternal instinct taking over. "Okay, okay, young man," she addressed Jaegar, her tone affectionate yet firm.
She then turned her attention to Pierre, acknowledging his concern, "Pierre, I will see to it that he goes to his room. You go and take a rest."
