Trouble Makers

There will always be something

I've finally finished Cobra Kai for the day. I could barely pay attention to the lesson due to my excitement. This would be my first date, with my first boyfriend. It wouldn't even be weird because it was only Robby. Right? I quickly run to the toilets and change before Robby can get here. When I walk out Eli's the only one left, shirtless.

As I walk over to him he looks me up and down and smirks to himself. Then all of a sudden he's not so happy anymore.

"Oh right, your date with Keene." He rolls his eyes. He then begins punching the bag in front of him aggressively. Not holding back.

"You've never had a problem with Robby before."

"I've never liked the guy. You were to focused on him to notice." He says through punches.

"Oh fuck off." I sigh and my phone pings.

Robby: I'm outside.

"Is that him?" He asks finally stopping the punching bag. I nod. He quickly picks up his top and puts it on. "I'll walk you out." He grabs his bag and we both walk out together.

We walk into the car park and Eli's close at my hip. I see Robby's car and wave at him. He steps out the car and waves back. "Hey Y/n." He smiles. "Hawk." He nods at Eli. "I don't think I'll get used to that any time soon." He laughs lightly.

"Well get used to it." He hissed "I also suggest you let her get chicken nuggets because she won't eat most other stuff." He turned to me and tried to smile. "Right I'm off. See you Y/n." He doesn't wait for my response and he walks off.

"I'm sorry about him." I laugh lightly.

"It's okay, he's never liked me." He says getting in the car. I find it weird how apparently everyone knew Eli and Robby didn't get along, other than me. I walk around the car and jump in the passenger side. Robby drives us to a restaurant I don't recognise.

We walk inside and it's nice and clean. It's got a very calm atmosphere and it smells amazing. We sit at a table.

"Y/n?" Robby asks.

I look up from the menu in my hand. "Robby." I reply.

"Do you even want to be here?" He sighs.

"Of course I do, I wouldn't be here otherwise."

"I don't think so." He replies. "I mean you didn't even tell me you joined my dads dojo." He says angrily.

"I didn't know how." I admit.

"You agreed to go out with me. But the only conversation we have had is about Hawk." He reports.

"Robby it's not like that."

"Y/n, Hawk has been at your beck and call ever since I can remember." He rants.

"Yeah because we're best friends." I resort back.

"Oh please." He hisses. "He's been in love with you for years."

I stop breathing for a second. "What?"

Robby's calmed down now. "I thought you knew. That's why he doesn't like me, because I took you to prom." I shake my head. "He wanted to take you. He was going to ask you but I got there before him."

"No, that's ridiculous." I laugh uncomfortably.

"You love him too." He informs me.

"Trust me, I don't want to."

He waits a second, thinking. "There will always be something between you two. But you can't expect to start something with someone new if your still in love with Hawk." He says standing up. "No hard feelings hey?" He inquires.

I nod and offer him a small smile. He smiles back and then walks out the restaurant.

My head falls onto the table and I groan loudly. Of course I've been dumped within the first half hour of my date. I don't know how I didn't notice Hawk loved me. I thought I would notice if he did but apparently not. This is his fault. If he didn't walk me to the car, Robby wouldn't have seen him and reminded him of his existence. Reminded him we couldn't be together with Hawk still in my life. And even Robby knows better than to make me choose between them.

I ended up not getting anything from the restaurant and just walked out. I once again found myself at the dojo. I change back into spare clothes.
