| All this happened, more or less. |

【 JOHNNY GARGANO' s POINT OF VIEW 】

The 'surprise' quiz of Coach E was done and I got perfect twenty. That's not new, it's always been this way. Let me ask the newbie Adam Cole. What if he got a perfect score as well?

I stood up and went towards his seat, "Hey, Adam. What you got?" He looked up to me with furrowed brows, "What do you mean?" "Obviously, your score? What is it?" I asked curiously.

"Why don't you look it yourself?" Then he handed me a folded paper and I snatched it away from him. I slowly opened the paper and saw 'zero'? This is the first that I've seen on a test paper in my entire life.

"Why did you got a perfect zero?" I thought you're a genius? "Tone it down, will you?" He rolled his eyes. Suddenly, the Undisputed Bullies approached us. "Adam! You've got a perfect zero? That's so uncool!" Kyle couldn't believe it. "Oh yeah? What about you?"

Kyle proudly rubbed his test paper at Adam's face. "Oh my God?! A two?" Adam freaked out so I snatched the paper from him. "You're improving, Kyle! From one to two!" I proudly tapped his shoulder then he giggled, "Of course! I'm learning from you!"

"Are you serious?" Adam winced and Roderick captured our attention when he laughed. "Why are you laughing, Roddy?" Adam questioned, raised a brow but Roddy just ignored him and turned to Kyle. "Really Kyle? Is that what you've only got?"

"You arrogant piece of shit! Did you scored higher than me?" Kyle blows up then Roderick chuckled and handed his paper to us. "Five?" I yelled and smiled at him, "You're maintaining your grades, Strong!" "It's better than Kyle's score!"

"But I'm improving!" Kyle pursed his lips and turned his head on the other member, "How about you, Bud?" "See it for yourself." Bobby chuckled and Roderick snatched his paper.

"You cheated, Bobby Fish!" Roderick accused him. "I am not!" Bobby denied as Adam peeked on his paper and freaked out again, "A passing score? How did you do that?" Everyone couldn't believe it. "Let me see it!" Kyle shouted and his eyes sparkled when he looked at Bobby, "Bobby! You are amazing!"

"Wait, you've got fifteen plus?" I asked curiously and they suddenly laughed. "Of course not! None of us couldn't reach that kind of score." Roderick stated. "He got a perfect ten!" Kyle exclaimed in excitement in which I furrowed my brows, "But it's up to twenty."

"Who cares. It's still the highest score ever." Bobby rolled his eyes and asked, "What's your score, Johnny Boy?" I felt embarrassed all of a sudden. I just smiled and said, "it's not important."

"Hey, Johnny the cupid! Keith needs your help!" Dream announced as he slings his arms around my shoulders. We approached Keith Lee and I sat in front of him.

"What's your problem, man?" I asked and he seems depressed. "Johnny boy, I can't fight this feeling any longer. I wish I had the strength to let it show." He let out a sigh. "Is that a song?" Dream suddenly asked and I hissed at him.

I gesture to let him continue his rants. "I say there's no reason for my fear. 'Cause I feel secure when we're together."

"Keith, just confess already." I told him and he exhaled, "I'm afraid, man. What if she rejects me? What if it will ruin our friendship?" Keith nervously said and Dream interjected himself, "I suggest you should take the risk. Risking is better than regretting."

"I agree at Dream." I said but Keith shook his head, "Better said than done." "You should have the confidence to yourself, man." I said and he gave us a smile, "Alright, I'll try my best."

I approached Tommaso when I caught him buried his head on his desk. "What's wrong, bud?" I asked him, concern is obvious in my voice. He didn't look up but he replied, "What am I gonna do, Johnny Boy..."

"Is it about Candice again?" I asked and he gave me a thumbs up. "I told you, man. Just confess already." "But I'm not like you, Johnny. It's not easy to say what's on my mind. It's even hard to speak when she's near." He said. I couldn't help but to massage my head in frustration, "Where's Candice anyway?" I asked then he pointed at a certain direction.

I saw Candice talking with the Undisputed Bullies and showing her paper. I saw Kyle and Bobby clapping their hands. "She's just friendly, you know. Just like me." I said to Tommaso. "Why is she always hanging out with them?"

I was about to say I don't know or you should just ask her yourself. But knowing Tommaso Ciampa and I know he's introvert. I don't have to guts to say it.

I heard a bell on my brain suddenly. Why don't I help him with Candice instead? Since I already give Keith a piece of advice and I think it's going to work out.

"Hey Tommaso," I whispered. "Hmm?" He tiredly replied. "Should I help you?" "What do you mean?"

"What about I help Candice LeRae fall in love with you?" I exclaimed in a low voice and then he finally looked up, "How are you gonna do that?" "Come' on it's me. Johnny Gargano. Besides I've known Candice for a long time. It'll be easy." I assured as I tapped his shoulder.

Operation; Make Candice LeRae fell for Tommaso Ciampa commence...
