Cherry, Aisha, and Miguel were the only students wearing a Gi while everyone else had on their normal clothes. Everyone except for them were talking - Cherry was practicing with Miguel while Aisha studied her technique. Johnny walked out of his office and looked around. When Johnny noticed that no one heard him when he talked in a normal voice, he knew what he had to do. "Quiet!" Everyone immediately stopped. "Face front. He began to walk through and criticize people.
"When I look around this dojo, I don't see Cobra Kai material. I see losers. I see nerds. I see a fat kid with a funny hat and his tits popping out. But, my short time as a sensei, I've also seen some miracles." Cherry smiled up at Miguel, and he returned the smile. "So, maybe there's some hope for you yet," Johnny continued.
"But first I need to see where you're at, so everybody fall in." Cherry face palmed when no one knew what Johnny ment. "That means line up." Cherry groaned and face palmed yet again when Johnny had to correct them. Miguel patted her shoulder while Aisha sighed.
"Fighting position - jab punch. No, wait 'till I say 'Go'. Hiya." Cherry heard him "helping" some kids out, then he stopped. "Hey, Lip. Yeah, you. The one with the freaky lip, who do you think I'm talking to?" Demetri immediately began to defend Eli.
Cherry felt herself bubbling up with anger and calmed down when Miguel hugged her from behind.
When Demetri said, "It's not like he can actually hurt us," Cherry knew he messed up.
Everyone backed up as Johnny walked towards him and Cherry bowed her head.
She buried her head into Miguel's shoulder as he rubbed his hand up and down her arm. "Is it over?" "Yeah, it's over."

Cherry hadn't seen Miguel at all the next day at school, so upon seeing him walking next to Demetri, she rushed her way over. "Hey." "Hey," both boys greeted her, but Miguel did a double take. "Nice outfit," he smirked, causing Cherry to blush and look down at her outfit. She was wearing boyfriend jeans, one of Miguel's shirt, and a blue flannel tied around her waist with her black Vans. "Thanks." "Look, he's not that bad of a guy," Miguel continued with their conversation. "You've got to give him a chance."
"You don't know him like how we do," Cherry informed, hoping to persuade Demetri to go back to Cobra Kai. Demetri chuckled. "That's hooker talk." "Are you calling Cherry a hooker?" Miguel asked. "No, not at all. What I ment was - nevermind. Besides, I don't need to learn karate when I have you two."
The three spotted Kyler, but when he saw Cherry and Miguel, he turned and walked the other way, avoiding them. "See? No one's gonna mess with you two."
They were dissecting a piglet in their science class, Cherry being in a group with Miguel and Demetri. "What are you thinking for sex?" Cherry suddenly asked. Miguel went red and began to stutter. "Because in the male, this tract opens up near the umbilical cord," Cherry said. She also noticed how Miguel sighed, relieved that she wasn't asking him to have sex with her.
"So I think ours is female."
"Yeah, uh. . . Yeah, I - I concur."
Cherry then had an idea and leaned closer towards Miguel. "You watch Animal Planet? Because I've heard that they sometimes talk about the animals having sex, especially mammals. It's interesting how a male and female are comfortable around each other to show the other their body. To let them roam their body, for only they could see their bodies and no one else." Cherry was close enough to Miguel that her lips grazed his ear.
