Chapter 121 - Ch. 121 The Music Director

Nicholas seemed to enjoy the girl's fondling by closing his eyes and opening his mouth to let the girl feel his entire lips. But both of Nick's hands still unmoving and stayed on his sides.

When the girl ended their making-out session, only the girl seemed to be out of breath, as if she was holding her breath underwater. Meanwhile, Nick was expressionless except for the thin smile that was plastered on his face.

"See ya," the unknown girl pulled back her hands and blew a kiss with her hand before walking away.

Nicholas chuckled in amusement at the brazen act for that girl. Strangely, he felt like he had seen that girl, especially her voice... where did he hear it?

Nicholas glanced at his friends to see their reaction, which made him scratch the back of his neck.

Jacob and Adam gave her thumbs up while Letti covered her lips with her hands and her face turned beet red. It was the first time she witnessed a couple kissing in action!

"You are something, Nick. How does it feel?" it was evident that, apart from Nicholas, his friends had never kissed the opposite sex.

"Just so-so." was his short response with an indifferent tone.

"Why do you sound unhappy?"

"I'm happy. But I preferred older girls." his answer made his friend's jaws open wide.

This guy is so shameless!

"Ahem." Letti cleared her throat as she pulled her hand away from her lips. "Looks like this isn't your first time."

"That was not my first kiss."

What!?

Adam put his arm around Nick's shoulder, grinning. "Master Larson, please choose me as your apprentice."

"Ha?"

"Teach me how to seduce girls without lifting a finger." Adam's request made Jacob and Fritz laugh at that.

Jacob accidentally turned to the side, where he saw Kaylee standing there looking at her phone. Jacob remembered that he had asked Kaylee to talk, but instead, he was too busy taking pictures with his friends.

"Guys, I'll be back later."

Nick realized which way Jacob was going, and he immediately stopped Jacob. "Wait. There's something I want to talk about."

"Save it for later."

"No. Now," answered Nick firmly.

Fritz felt the tension between his two friends again and patted Adam's arm, and beckoned Letti to leave the two of them. Fritz and Adam both knew that the inseparable duo had a silent cold war between them.

Fortunately, their relationship has gone on as usual, but they still feel an indescribable wall between them.

Before the music battle event started, Adam again felt the hostile feelings from Jacob towards Nick. He hoped that his two friends would soon resolve whatever had made them fight.

He didn't care if they decided to fight and split up, but now that he had played together and felt that their music team had reached an inevitable cohesion, Adam thought it would be a pity if one of the members decided to leave.

"I hope they settle their issues soon."

"Settle? Are they fighting?" Letti was the only one who was insensitive and ignorant of the relationship between Nick and Jacob.

"Just a boy's fight. No worries." ensured Fritz while taking them backstage to clean up their musical equipment.

Adam and Fritz were storing their respective guitars and basses in their bags when a man in his mid-30s came up to them.

"Great performance you had back there. You've got skills."

"Thank you, sir. It was our honor to meet you in person." Adam greeted the campus' music director first. He knew who this person was and knew very well why this person had come to see them.

On the contrary, Letti, who had never met the campus' music director, tugged at Fritz's sleeve to whisper to him. "Who is this man? Do you know him?"

Fritz shook his head and let Adam do the talking to this unknown newcomer.

"Let me introduce myself. I'm the music director of this venue and responsible for forming a band and presenting them to the campus's annual events."

Fritz and Letti gasped in surprise to hear the introduction. No wonder Adam immediately became courteous and polite as soon as he spoke to Mister Harvey. This person was in charge of receiving events from outside!

"The music team you beat was a band member I had chosen since last year. I've heard about your bets, and you'll be replacing my band members during this month. But, you see… it was not that easy to take their spot. You have to fulfill a condition before taking their place."

Three pairs of eyes looked at each other in bewilderment but were ready to do anything to appear at the events that this person had scheduled. After all, appearing in public and at significant events was an opportunity that wouldn't come twice.

They wouldn't blow this golden opportunity.

"We will do anything, sir. Tell me what the conditions are."

Mister Harvey smiled contentedly at Adam's declaration firmly, and Letti and Fritz nodded their heads.

"That's easy. You only need to join the winter music program in two weeks. After that, I will directly take you to the venue where you will be performing for the first time."

Satisfied smiles graced the three youths. Letti and Adam had already signed up for the program, while Fritz didn't mind joining them even though he wanted to sleep during this holiday season.

"We will go. Thank you, sir."

"What about your other two friends?" inquired Mister Harvey realizing Jacob and Nick weren't with them.

Robert Harvey was sure that Jacob would agree, while Nick… he doubted it.

"They will definitely agree." They had to. Thought Fritz.

"It's settled then. Enjoy your last semester and be prepared for the camp program." was his last speech before walking away and smiled in amusement when he heard the enthusiastic squealed of the three young people.

At the same time, Nick and Jacob were still near the fountain with a tense atmosphere without knowing the conversation between Mister Harvey and their friends.

"What do you want to talk about?"

"You blamed me because I encouraged you, right? But you know what? I disagree that it's my fault that you lost her. You could only blame yourself."

"…" What nonsense is this?
