"Hi, welcome to Cobra Kai. How can I help you?" He asked with a small grin on his face.

You realized you had taken a while to answer as you stared at the man in front of you. "Hi." You beamed. "I just had a couple of questions, it shouldn't take that long." You smiled.

He smiled back, his eyes crinkling a bit. You drank in everything. For whatever his age was, he looked fine. Really fine. He took out one of his hands from his pockets to motion you to follow him in his office. You didn't see a ring. His hands were all bruised and cut, probably what happens to your hands when you're a karate teacher. Not that they look bad, they didn't. Nothing about him looked bad.

There was something intimidating about him. Maybe it was just you being shy because he made you feel like such a mess. Butterflies in your stomach, heart beating out of your chest, knees going weak, you even felt heat pool in between your legs. You dazed in your thoughts you had forgotten why you were there in the first place.

Johnny's patience was wearing thin. He shamefully admitted that if he didn't think you were so hot he probably would have snapped at you already. You looked to be on the younger side so he already knew he didn't have a chance. Hot babes like you would definitely not go after an old man like him.

"Are you looking to find out more about the dojo and the classes we offer?" the man asked, seeing as you weren't talking. He looked at you waiting for an answer.

"No, I'm Y/N." You held your hand out. "Johnny" he said as he shook your hand feeling your soft one on his calloused hands.

You disconnected your hands, a part of you wished to keep holding them. You liked how rough they felt against your skin.

"I work next door." You began. "And I just wanted to know if the landlord had come and spontaneously raised your rent without any notice?" You asked.

You could see his facial expression change to some sort of anger or worry. He sighed and propped his elbows on his desk as he leaned forward.

"Yeah son of a bitch raised the rent. Did he do that to you guys too?" He asked. "Yeah but what he's doing is totally illegal. By how much did he raise your rent by?" You asked. "That asshole doubled up my rent." He exclaimed. "Yeah ours too but he can't do that without a 90 day written notice." You said. "So my boss is thinking about talking to a lawyer to see our options. She just wanted to know if the others were being affected by it too." You said

"I guess now you know." Johnny said. "Yeah now I do know." You smiled. You didn't want to leave. You wanted to stare at him forever. Taking in his beautiful features and engraving it in your brain until you were sure you could remember every detail of his physique.

"It was nice meeting you Johnny." You stood up. He followed as he stood up and led you by the exit. "It was nice meeting you too y/n." He lightly smiled as he looked at you.

Suddenly your phone rang seeing that it was B you quickly answered. "What's wrong, is everything okay?" You asked.

"Guess who I just got a call from." B yelled. "Umm I can't think B" You chuckled. You weren't lying you couldn't when the man in front of you was the reason for that. He clouded your mind.

"We're accepted!!" B exclaimed. "Accepted where?" You asked as you furrowed your eyebrows very confused. "You really are dumb?" B scoffed as you frowned at the comment.

Johnny smiled as he looked at you on the phone. You were hot and cute at the same time. He watched as your lips moved and the face expression you made. How your hair fell perfectly in place. My god your eyes. He knew that when he stared into them he could never look away. If it wasn't for you constantly avoiding his eye contact he would be able to look into them forever. He hadn't felt this way since... since... Ali. His thoughts were disrupted by a loud screaming.

"HOLY SHIT B" You exclaimed. "We got accepted, we actually got in." You smiled. Excitement took over you as you grabbed Johnny's hand in front of you and squeezed it as you almost foolishly jumped up and down. Almost. But as you realized what you did your eyes went wide. And quickly you let go. Saving yourself from almost acting like a child in front of Johnny. The last thing you wanted was this man to see you as was a child.

"I gotta go B" You almost whispered "Boo you whore." She said as before you hung up.

"I'm so sorry." You said as you looked down at your feet. "Don't worry about it." Johnny smiled at you.

"So what is that all about? If you don't mind me asking." He said. He didn't want you to think that he was nosy. He wanted to know what caused you to look so excited, the thing that made your eyes light up and smile widely. You seemed genuinely happy. Something he hadn't felt in a while.

"Its really dumb and insignificant." You mutter. "But umm my friend and I just got approved for an apartment. It's really nice and it's less expensive ." You smiled. Johnny nodded.

"My life is pretty boring the things I get excited are pretty dumb." You chuckled. "Its not dumb." Johnny said. "In fact I think we should go celebrate." Johnny offered.

You looked at him. Was he really suggesting for you to go? With him? You felt a rush of blood hit your cheeks as you smiled.

Johnny observed your face expression to hint at what you would answer. You stay silent for about 30 seconds. To Johnny it felt longer. He began to get nervous, he knew in this case he had to accept defeat.

"Sure I'd love to." You smiled, your eyes flickered at him and then to the ground. He smiled widely. He couldn't believe you had just said yes. He grabbed his things before he led you out of the dojo.
