The Boy I Once Knew | Cobra Kai Hawk/Eli

Chapter 32

I have last period free thankfully because now I have more time to get ready for tonight. I'm going to figure out what's wrong with Hawk and I'm not gonna let Demetri be the thing that breaks us up. As much as I love Demetri and miss him as my friend, he's not going to break the only thing that's keeping me going anymore. 

I call Johnny to pick me up and of course, he doesn't answer. What's the point of him having a phone if he doesn't use it. I end up walking home, which won't take me long, and besides, it will give me more time to think.

My mom doesn't come home for another two hours so I have the house to myself. I slip my shoes off and hop into the shower. As I wash my hair, I can't stop thinking back to Hawk. I love him and I always have but I don't know him now. I knew Eli but not Hawk. He's so unexpected, in good ways and bad. But it's like with me he's anything but a dick so it's hard to see him as anything else but when he's with cobra kai, he's a completely different person. I check my phone when I get out of the shower and my jaw drops. Fuck, I've been in the shower for over an hour. I've been so stuck in my thoughts recently, it's like I'm stuck in time. I walk back to my room and throw on a pink flowery dress. I have no idea what we're doing besides going to the beach so I don't want to dress too fancy.  I still have another hour till Hawk should be here so I'm just going to watch Netflix. 

My phone rings on the side table. Hawks name shows up on the screen. 

"I'm outside," He says and instantly hangs up the phone. He didn't sound like he was in a good mood, great. 

I grab my medical bag and leave a note on the table letting my mom know where I am and head out. 

His cars out front along with him in the drives seat looking forward. This is just going to be so much fun with him like this. I grab the handle and climb into the passenger seat. I look over at him and he doesn't turn his head or eyes to look at me once. 

"Did I do something?" I ask. He just shakes his head no and starts to drive. His leg is bouncing up and down like he's nervous or anxious about something.  I choose to ignore it and turn back into the seat.

Ten minutes go by and not word has been said by either of us.

"Ok what's wrong" 

"Nothing's wrong," He says unsurely. 

I laugh, "You haven't looked at me once or even said hi and you haven't said anything"

"Nothings wrong just drop it," He says forcefully and puts his hand on my thigh. I pick his hand up and place it on his own thigh. He finally looks over at me and I just smile sarcastically at him. If he's going to be like this, I don't even want to hang out with him.

"What now," He asks annoyed. 

"Nothing" Two can play at that game. 

We arrive at a restaurant I've never been to and head in. He walks in ahead of me almost shutting the door in my face. I grab his end angrily and shove him into a single bathroom. 

"What the fuck!" He yells. 

"What the hell is your problem. You've been a bitch ever since you picked me up. Did Demetri say something, did something happen at school, what!" I snap. He paces back and forth around the bathroom. 

"Just got a lot of things on my mind ok"

"Like what because If you're going to act like this, take me home".

He sighs, "I'm sorry. Demetri said that you loved me today like used to. That's why I asked earlier if you did" He frowns. 

"What? Why would you believe him over me? He has no idea how I feel about you" I walk over to him wrapping my arms around his neck.
