Heartstrings | Johnny Lawrence x (y/n) | 1984 |

| 1 | Dead man

(Y/n's POV )

You left the dojo with Johnny, Bobby, Tommy, and Dutch, all of you worn out from Sensei Kreese's brutal training. As you walked outside, Bobby rubbed his shoulder and groaned. "Man, that was intense. I'm gonna feel this in the morning."

"Guess he's stepping it up with the tournament coming up," you added, stretching out your arms.

"More like he's trying to kill us before we even make it there," Johnny joked, wincing a little.

Dutch perked up, nudging Tommy. "You know what we need? A beach trip. Just us, some tunes, maybe even some beer."

The idea lit everyone up, and within minutes, plans were set. You were to meet up at the beach around 9 p.m., each wearing your Cobra Kai jackets in typical fashion. As you headed home to change, you grabbed your jacket, figuring it'd be a little chilly by the ocean at night.

TIME SKIP

After 20 minutes we made it to the top of a hill, giving us a perfect view of the beach and of..Ali with another guy? Johnny was not going to be happy about this, I decided not to point it out but of course Tommy's bird brain thought it would be good to point it out.

"Hey you must be a trendsetter Johnny, looks like everyones doing something new!" Tommy said interrupting his and Bobby's conversation a little interaction. "Take a right, check it out!" Tommy said. This gained Johnnys attention turning to see Ali with some other guy.

"Hey Johnny forget it man!" I said hoping to calm his nerves. "Yeah man, it's ancient history!" Bobby said backing me up. "Who told you man?" Johnny said angry as he put on his helmet and made a sign telling us to go down the hill and we did. "Oh my goodness.." I mumbled.

Ali meant something to him, even if he wouldn't admit it. Still, a part of you couldn't help feeling a pang of jealousy. You'd known Johnny forever, and being just friends had started to feel like a cruel twist.

Johnny was the first one to get off his. "Hey Ali I want to talk to you" he said. "Will you just leave me alone..we have been over this alright? I dont wanna talk" she said.

"Well I want to talk to you?!" Johnny said as he turned off Ali's radio. I had already got off my motorcycle and started standing next the bobby watching how this would go. Ali didn't say anything and simply turned her radio back on.

"What is your problem?" He said as he turned off her radio once again. "Why don't you just take your little cobra kai's and get outta here!" She practically yelled at him.

You noticed her new guy watching uneasily, clearly sensing the tension.

You tried to defuse the situation. "Johnny, maybe it's not the right time—"

"Oh yeah like thats gonna solve everything" Johnny was finally losing his patience as his grabbed Ali's radio due to her turning it back on every second. "Give me my radio! ..I SAID GIVE ME MY RADIO!!" Ali had started to lose it as well.  Not until I see Johnny throw Ali's radio to the ground.

I gasped as Johnny turned to look at me. "Did you just break my radio?!" Ali started to push him.

You watched the scene, fists clenched, ready to defend Johnny if it came to it.

Ali only scoffed at my reaction though. The other guy began to pick up Ali's radio. "Don't touch it punk!" Johnny yelled at the unknown boy. He didn't care though, he started giving it to Ali. "Are you deaf?!" Johnny snatched the radio from his hands. The boy was confused but seemed a bit intimidated by Johnny.

You moved closer, trying to break things up before they got worse, but Bobby pulled you back. "Let them handle it," he whispered, though you could tell even he was tense.

"You want it?" Johnny started smirking. He then shoved it towards the boy causing him to fall. The crowd of people started to get amused, half of the crowd cheering for Johnny while the other half was cheering for the unknown boy. Johnny was looking for a fight, the boy then ran towards Johnny which he easily tripped him. "Johnny stop it!" Was all you could hear Ali saying through the crowd cheering and yelling.

"I didn't do anything?" Johnny said defending himself while smirking. I was watching intensely hoping things would calm down. However knowing johnny he was definitely going to start something big.

"How about you hero? You had enough?" Johnny exclaimed while walking towards the useless boy on the ground. 

But the guy wasn't done. He scrambled up and took another swing, actually managing to hit Johnny this time. The crowd gasped, some of them laughing, some yelling for Johnny to fight back. You felt your heart racing.

"No mercy man.." Johnny then started kicking him left and right! Making the poor boy fall to the ground.

That was all the encouragement Johnny needed; he retaliated, kicking the guy down. He went down fast, groaning, and Ali quickly rushed forward, pushing Johnny again.

"Let go of me!!!" Ali yelled and she was let loose. She immediately started pushing and shoving Johnny "Why dont you hit me huh?!" She said. "Its your fault?!" Johnny stated.

" it's not my fault! Why do you have to go and fight all the time?!" She yelled. I walked in front of her defending Johnny.

At that point, you'd had enough. Stepping up, you put yourself between her and Johnny. "Hey..lets please—"

Ali turned to you, her eyes fierce. "Stay out of this! This has nothing to do with you."

I felt her spit all over me. It irritated me

"Oh, believe me, I've been there for him a lot longer than you have," you shot back, standing your ground.

Before things could get worse, Johnny grabbed your wrist gently, guiding you back to the bikes. "Come on. Let's go."

The other boys followed, and as you started your bike, you glanced over to see Ali's new guy brushing the sand off his clothes, looking defeated. You felt a mixture of guilt and satisfaction, maybe Johnny needed that release, but it didn't make it any easier to watch.

"Be careful (nickname), don't want you getting hurt" Johnny turned around to look at me while putting on his helmet. "Im okay.." I said very low. We all drove off making sure to put sand all over the boy on the ground. I felt a bit bad about it but i decided not to say anything. He looks new, maybe I'll see him around school.

As you rode off, Johnny's voice crackled through the sound of your engines. "Thanks, (Y/N). You've always had my back."

"Always, Johnny," you replied quietly, hoping he'd catch the meaning behind your words.

But you knew this wasn't over—Ali, her new guy, and Johnny's growing anger toward the world were only adding fuel to the fire.
