Johnny did just that. A drinking binge all night as the Diaz family were worried about him until miguel found him passed out drunk by the tub. He helped Johnny to his bed and set a trash can by his bed before he left.------
Daniel didn't see Johnny for two weeks as he tried everything to find Johnny. A part of him was going to give up, but the other wasn't gonna give up on him. He only hopes that whereever he is, he's okay. Matt was trying to be the understanding boyfriend, but eventually he was getting bored with daniel. Especially with his attempts to find Johnny. They started to have their own problems down the line.
Johnny was at the beach sleeping on a beach until some kid's ice cream landed on his face. The kid tried to throw it in the trash bin, but it landed on Johnny's face. The strawberry ice cream was slowly dripping down into his eyes as he sat up. His hands were away the melted dessert as he sighed walking to the bathrooms.
He washed his face before looking into the mirror. Face was unshaven, hair was long yet messy, and clothes reak of old liquor. He thought to come here at the beach to avoid those looking for him. It wasn't just the thought of losing daniel, he's a loser, and a loser of a father towards robby. If Robby never wanted to see him again, he'd understand.
-----
As soon as he walked out, lots of skaters was coming his way as they skate around him. He puts his head down and sat back down on the bench. Unaware that among those skaters was bert and he called up hawk. Word got around so quick and miguel rushed down to the beach before Johnny could leave.
Johnny was eating a hotdog before miguel calls for him. He looked at the young boy, "Hey kid"
"Sensei, where have you been? Everyone's been looking for you"
He finished his hotdog, burping before folding his hands.
"What if I don't want to be found?"
"Sensei....I know you don't want to here this but the team needs you. I need you...Sensei Larusso needs you too. We're all not doing so good on our end and it doesn't help with the upcoming tournament."
"Quit the tournament...that's all I can say."
This frustrated Miguel because the man who took him under his wing is saying this. To quit without giving themselves a chance, but he wouldn't allow this. Johnny was gonna put his shades on until miguel slapped his hand as it fell to the ground.
"Hey!"
"QUIET!!" Miguel yelled out that he was getting stares from other people there. He looks around before they looked away as he stared down at his sensei.
"Look at you. A deadbeat pussy who's gonna run away from a fight. So, because you didn't get the man you wanted or be the father to the son who needs you, you're just gonna give up?!!! Waste your last pathetic years eating food that's unhealthy and cry about it?? Pathetic"
"Hey! Watch it"
"You can't keep running away from your problems. It's not badass, Sensei."
That made Johnny chuckle before looking at Miguel, seeing how much he's grown and he learned from the best. The kid wasn't wrong as he can't avoid his problems and everyone who care about him. They head back to Johnny's apartment as he's well-groomed now.

The next day, Daniel parks his car and slowly heads into the dojo. He was sleepy as Matt kept him up from his loud snoring last night. He didn't see the kids around and wondered where did they go. He sets his bag down and heads to the backyard to see if they're training. It was a only tall, bulky blonde man standing by the koi pond. He knew it was Johnny that his heart jumped, his smile widened as he walks closer.
As much as he wanted to embrace him, he was still pissed. Johnny turned around seeing Daniel walking towards him like a train. He started to block all the hits that Daniel threw at him.
"No calls, no text, no emails. Really Johnny?!!" He said before he started to hit and kick the man.
Johnny was apologizing while defending himself before he grabbed hold of both Daniel's hands. He brought the short man closer to him as they locked eyes with one another. He can tell that the brunette wanted to cry as he let him go, "I am sorry, Daniel."
Daniel couldn't help himself but to push Johnny into the koi pond. The man rose up gasping for air as the water was cold. Feeling like pins and needles against his skin as he throws his arms up, "Feel better?"
Daniel nodded before Johnny gave him that same smirk he always does and pulled him into the pond. He was splashing around and trying to stand up as Johnny laughed.
"You think this is funny?"
"Hey! You started it"
"I hope the fishes are okay"
They slowly walk around to make sure as Johnny was behind Daniel saying, "I'll buy you more koi fish if any of these babies are hurt." Daniel slowly turns raising his eyebrow.
"Really?"
"Of course. I know how much they mean to you." He replied before slowly getting out and lend a hand to help Daniel. They slowly walk back into the dojo shivering.
-----
As they become close, daniel just finds Matt annoying and let him down easy. Of course, Matt wasn't surprised nor angry because he cheated on Daniel a few times. However, he wasn't gonna tell him that.
Johnny could've sworn he heard angels singing when he learned the news of the breakup. The kids were also happy as they expressed their thoughts on it. Mitch was eating chips before he says to the group, "Now, we wait for Sensei Lawrence and Sensei Larusso to get back together." The kids agreed before they get quiet from a car that stopped by.
It was Johnny as Hawk asked him if he knows. Johnny tries not to smile and lets them know, "It was good that Sensei Larusso decided to ditch that asshole. That prick probably had a small wang too." They laughed and made jokes before daniel arrived.
The students head inside quietly as one of them whistled when they seen Daniel and Johnny side-by-side talking. Johnny asked, "Are you ready?"
"Let's do this"
