At first, Jacob, Adam, and Fritz did not understand why Nick had turned their duel into a duet. But when they heard how harmonious the two guitars were between Nick and Arnold, they joined the crowd cheering them on.
In no time, the tense atmosphere caused by the duel has now turned cheerful, like a party with a duet concert between the idol campus and the popular seniors. The two young men also seemed to enjoy their performance and exchanged glances as if they were communicating with their eyes alone.
People from other schools who came to see the music battle thought Nick and Arnold were old friends but had a fight over something. It was hard to believe if they said that Nick and Arnold were strangers. Their cohesiveness and harmony in a duet were largely unified, like milk and water.
They would not think Arnold had cheated by ordering his fellow to destroy Nick's guitar before this match started.
