"This is where we're stopping? What the hell is here?" Johnny asked Robby in disbelief, parking the Eagle Fang van outside of the run down apartments. "Is this where you've been crashing?"

"Yeah." Robby unbuckled his seat belt. "Just give me a minute. If i'm going with you, there's gotta be a plan."

"We-" Johnny began again before Robby was out of the car, shutting the door.

Robby hugged the flannel around his arms more, feeling a faint breeze in the summer air. The steps creaked under his feet as he went up the steps he'd known perfectly well by now. He skipped the second to last, knowing it was wobbly and he'd tripped on it before. The small lights by each number were all dulling, except one due to Ty's handyman ex boyfriend.

"Hey, Josh." Robby eyed the young man as he screwed the light bulb back on. "You and Ty finally get back together?"

"No. That shit head broke his lightbulb to try and get me out here." he looked over at him in disbelief. "You Lex's boy?"

Robby felt his face flush. "Y-"

"Yeah." the door opened up. It had only been an hour, but Robby had missed being around her already. He could still taste their shared milkshake, he wondered if she was the same. Alexa's face lit up slightly as she looked at him, her hair pulled back and in her orange sweats she loved so much. "He is."

"Cute." Josh nodded as Alexa shut the door.

"You guys have met?" she hummed.

"Well, not exactly-" Josh began.

"Okay, great!" she grabbed Robbys arm and pulled him further down the balcony to get some privacy. Josh waved them off. They stopped at the end. "How'd it go?"

"Good." Robby shrugged, placing his hands on her face and leaning in to kiss her for a second. "But, something came up."

Her face fell. "Something came up?"

"Yeah, a trip to Mexico." he gave an odd look, having to laugh. "As weird as a sudden trip as that is."

"Well, it sounds like your Dad." she shrugged, trying to seem some what supportive. "So, what's this mean? You leavin me already?"

"God, no." Robby grabbed her arms. "Are you kidding? I think i've gotten too use to your snoring."

"I do not snore!" Alexa scolded him.

"You really do." he smiled, rubbing her arms. "That why I want you to come with me. To Mexico. Well, with me and my Dad."

Alexa tilted her head and laughed. "No."

"What? Why?" his face fell.

"Robby, I'm still beyond pissed at your Dad." Alexa gave a look of disbelief, shaking her head. "For multiple reasons."

"I know, and so am I." he nodded his head. "Which is why I want you to come with me. For all three of us to maybe get a chance to...talk. I don't know, something."

Alexa looked down, Robby frowned. "Something else on your mind?"

"Yeah." she admitted, meeting his gaze. "I guess I just feel kinda lost right now."

"How come?" Robby put his hands on her waist to pull her in closer. "Because of the All Valley?"

"I haven't been without Cobra Kai since...well, before Cobra Kai." she gave a questionable look with a shake of her head. "I don't know how to feel."
