"𝐒𝐨 𝐭𝐞𝐥𝐥 𝐦𝐞, 𝐚𝐦 I or am I not the dating master?" I asked Tory playfully as I lit up a couple candles around us. After we'd driven away from Cobra Kai, I swung by Terry's house, stole a few candles , shoved them in a bag then rode away with Tory. I'd taken her back to where we went for our first date. An underpass that I'd set up with candles and ordered us pizzas back then. This time, I opted for McDonalds and cocktails in a can. I handed Tory a cocktail as I opened up mine, "Are you really gonna drink that?" She asked me. I routed through my bag and held up an identical one to mine. I waved it in her face, "Mine are non alcoholic, relax." I smiled to her as she munched on some fries. "Maybe you are the date master, this is almost romantic." Tory teased back sipping her cocktail.
I put mine down and lit up a cigarette, "So, that back there..Was that way of you leaving Cobra Kai?" I asked her curiously. Tory sighed heavily and had a bite of her Big Mac before answering. "I' m still figuring stuff out, when to leave. What about you?" She asked back. "I dunno really. I mean I'm helping my dad and Johnny. I fought bad earlier so that they had a higher chance to get into the Sekai Taikai but my dad won't shut up about Miyagi Do karate to me. I get that he maybe wants to try form a bond and believes that karate could be a faster way but I don't think I could just do all their ideologies . Like, karate is for offence not defence." I explained, it felt nice to be so honest and let the weight lift off my shoulders.
"So where do you think you belong?" Tory asked, her hand reaching mine and squeezing it. "Sounds cheesy, but with you." I replied with a soft smile. Tory rolled her eyes at my cheesy comment, "That is cheesy ." She smirked to me. "Maybe but I mean it." I smiled back to her. "Iz, can you promise me that you mean it? That we're gonna prioritize each other from now on." Tory asked of me "I promise, we can take things at our own pace yeah?" I smiled to her. "Yeah." She agreed, before we could say another word my phone buzzed.
Lolo: Party at Miguel's. U should come Bunny loads of people from everywhere around
"Who's that?" Tory asked, a slight tone to her voice. "Lola, she told me there's a party going at Miguel's. Do you wanna check it out?" I explained then wondered. I knew it'd be tough not drinking , but that didn't mean I couldn't have a couple of pills. I sipped on my non alcoholic Strawberry Daiquiri in a can. "Maybe its not a good idea if its Miguel." Tory stated with a sigh. "Hey, a party's a party babe and it might be a good way for us to meet some new people, non karate people." I suggested and I seemed to be convincing her. "Is LaRusso gonna be there?" She questioned. "Probably." I admitted. "I think I need to tell Sam the truth." She confessed, downing the rest of her cocktail. "I'll back you up no matter what." I assured her. "I don't wanna fight." She sternly stated. I downed the rest of my can and crumpled it up throwing it.
