when i woke up in the middle of the night my phone was blowing up with texts from hawk.

please respond

i'm so sorry

it shouldn't of happened

please talk to me

you probably hate me and i honestly don't blame you.

i just need someone to talk to and you're the only person who will talk to me right now.

as i was going through the texts i heard a knock at the door. sighing, i got up and went to the door. i opened the door, revealing a very disheveled looking hawk.

his hair was down, tears staining his cheeks, and bags were under his eyes. i felt bad. almost too bad. i mean, he did just hunt down one of my friends in the mall and almost beat him up over a yelp review. i get it, demetri can be very annoying most of the time but he doesn't deserve to be tracked down by a group of teens and almost beaten in the middle of the mall.

i stepped aside to allow the now red haired boy in. when i stepped aside he immediately walked in. once i closed and locked the door he engulfed me in a hug. as confused, and angry at him as i was, i hugged back.

"i'm so so sorry." he spoke into my hair.

i said nothing in response as i pulled away, walking towards my bedroom, prompting him to come with. and he did. i heard him trailing behind me as i walked down the short hall to my room.

"hawk i-" i started speaking before sighing. i walked over to the edge of my bed where hawk was and sat down next to him.

"i'm angry. i'm angry at the fact that you thought it was ok to hunt demetri down in the mall over a stupid little yelp review. i'm angry that you didn't take into consideration how he felt as he wrote the yelp review, how he felt when you showed up at the comic book shop and threatened to beat him up. you are becoming his biggest bully, the person you never wanted to be, the person you spent so long hiding from and despising because they were tearing you down little by little, and you don't seem to really get it. and to everyone you ARE becoming that person and it doesn't faze you one bit. and i'm terrified. terrified that i am going to be in demetri's shoes. i'm more so terrified that you are going to damage yourself in the process." my eyes started brimming with tears. resting my head on the boys shoulder as i poured out my feelings to him.

"you know i would never hurt you. ever." he spoke softly, his words followed by a sniffle.

"that's what demetri though too and look where we are now." i talked, never once taking my head off his shoulder.

"i... i know." his voice broke.

he broke.

his world is coming crumbling down on him and he can't do anything about it.

silence filled the air for a little while before a spoke up again, breaking the seemingly ever lasting silence.

"i think i'm going to quit cobra kai. or, or at least take a break. i don't know what it is but i can't be around kreese. he just gives me a weird feeling." i told the boy.

we were now laying on my bed, my head resting on his chest.

"i understand." he spoke into my hair.

my eyes were getting tired and before i knew it they were closed, ready for my body to shut down and embrace sleep.

[third person pov]

the girl ended up falling asleep a few minutes after she closed her eyes, letting her body shut down and shut out the world around her. laying on the red haired boy felt nice. she felt safe, like nothing could hurt her.

the boy under her, who was equally as tired, refrained from sleeping to watch the girl for a few minutes. it felt nice having the raven haired girl wrapped in his arms, it gave him a sense of security, one moon never gave him.

truth be told he always liked the girl that was sleeping peacefully on his chest. sure, moon was nice, but nothing compared to her. but he couldn't tell her that yet. he had to become a better person, no matter how long it took he would do it.

he felt, deep down inside, that she didn't deserve a boy like him. a bruised and battered boy that has gone through so much hurt. a broken boy that was slowly being corrupted by one of his mentors. a boy that was turning into the thing he hated most. a bully.

she didn't deserve a bully. she didn't deserve him. she could easily find someone better. couldn't she? of course she could. i mean, she's rough around the edges but if you really got to know her you would know that she truly cares about the people she loves.

but, then again, if she could find someone better than him why wasn't she out searching for her soulmate.

maybe because her soulmate had his arms wrapped around her and his head buried in her hair.
