Until the end - Eli Moskowitz/Hawk

(16)

Eli was already being tattooed when Jess turned up. His hair was up in more of a spiked mohawk than usual and he was laying on the table getting red ink over the blue.

"It looks good" Jess says

"Thanks Rico" Eli says standing up. As he did so, Jess noticed the new tattoo on his chest. It was her name in a star.

"Is that what I think it is" she asks

"I'm all in" he says and pauses "will you be my girlfriend?" He asks her

She away from the tattoo and up at him "of course I will" she smiles

He picks her up and spins her round "are you serious?" He asks

"Obviously I'm serious why would I not say yes" she tells him

"I don't know I've just thought about it for so long I tend to overthink it" he rambles and smiles

"Well I promise that I will happily be your girlfriend Eli Moskowitz" she smiles

After practice they all went to the diner. Jess, Tory, Moon and Aisha were all around a table. Jess got on really well with Tory instantly.

"Yasmine has the same bikini as me" Moon says looking at an Instagram post Yasmine made while away.

"Tell her she can stay in France" Aisha says rolling her eyes. Tory takes the ice in her water and throws it at Miguel who's at a different table.

"Oops must have slipped out of my hand" Tory says to him "what are you even doing over there?"

"Going all in" Miguel answers

Jess leans across the table closer to Tory "you two so have a thing going" she says

"What about you and Hawk?" Tory asks

"Well I'd like to think so" Jess says "we are dating"

"Jess come here a minute" Eli calls her over. She smiles at Tory before walking over to see what the problem is.

"What is it?" She asks

"Look at this" he says handing her a phone with a one star review of Cobra Kai

"Who the fuck wrote this" she asks a bit pissed off since it was her dad's business. Eli scrolls up and clicks on the account. Demetri.

"And I know what your going to say but I just want to go talk to him about it" Eli says

"It seems bad if I just gave you permission to beat him up but right now I'm not against the idea" Jess blurts out, despite Demetri being their friend, a real friend wouldn't try and ruin the business of their friend's dad so right now Jess wasn't in the mood for mercy. That review could seriously damage the dojo and hurt her dad's income which definitely isn't some she would want to happen so she needed it gone.

"Good because I know exactly where he will be today" Eli says with a smirk

"Comic book store" she answer for him and he nods. The new issue of Dungeon Lord was out today and that's exactly where Demetri is going to be if he wasn't to get it, which he definitely will.

Even though Jess wasn't opposed to the idea, she didn't particularly want to be involved. She head home where her dad was angry over finding out Robby was living with the LaRusso's. Apparently Carmen helped him to talk about it but he still wasn't happy.

It was around 11pm when Jess got a knock on her window. She looks to see that it's Eli. She opens the window to let him in but puts a finger on her lips to tell him to be quiet.

"The walls aren't thick" she tells him

"I'll keep that in mind" her says looking around her room. He had a black eye.

"What are you doing here" she asks

"Well I just wanted to tell you some things" he says

"And you couldn't have called me?" She looks at him confused

"We fought Miygi-do and lost" he says "yelp review is still up"

She sighs in annoyance "who hit you?" She puts her hand up near his black eye

"Keene" he tells her and she rolls her eyes

"Sick of hearing that name" she says "was there anything else?"

He hates to lie to her "no that was it"

"Well I'll see you tomorrow then?" She asks

"Yeah see you then" he says. She kisses him on the cheek before he leaves back through the window.

Eli and Miguel were sparring on the mat when Daniel LaRusso comes running in the dojo.

"What the hell do you think you're doing?" Johnny asks him

"Like you don't know" Daniel says

"Take your shoes off the mat you're disrespecting my dojo" Johnny tells him

"You're seriously gonna talk to me about disrespecting dojos after what you just did to mine?" Daniel says stepping forward. Jess glances at Eli.

"I didn't do anything to your dojo" Johnny says

"Just like how you did slug one of my employees huh?" Daniel says "you know, part of me actually felt bad for you at one point but you make it so easy to remember who the bad guy in all this is. You call yourself a sensei? You don't even know what a sensei is. A sensei mentors. A sensei elevates. He doesn't teach destruction and disrespect"

"Hey!" Jess shouts but Miguel puts an arm out so she can't move.

"I already said I don't know what you're talking about" Johnny states "and you don't know what you're talking about either"

"Yeah well I know you don't...you don't earn a Medal of Honor by stealing it" Daniel says

Jess looks up at Eli noticing the nervousness in his reaction. She already knew.

"Let me tell you something about your sensei" Daniel starts "he might teach you how to fight, but he doesn't know a thing about what it takes to truly win at life. If you want to help yourselves before it's too late, the doors to Miyagi do are right open"

"You think you can come in here and poach my students"

"And what are you gonna do about it"

"I'm gonna be the bigger man" Johnny says backing up

"Yeah we'll see about that" Daniel says before leaving.

Almost half the class left after that
