Clara wakes up with the thought of the last night. An immediate smile finds its way on her face. The thought of the blonde Cobra Kai let's the warm feeling in her stomach bubble up. The brunette girl gets dressed and walk down the stairs into the kitchen. Bobby sits already sits at the table, eating a piece of toast.

"How was it last night? Alone with Johnny." He asks her sarcastically, with an knowing smirking. Clara raises an eyebrow and lokks at him weird. "What are you implying?" Bobby smirks at her.

"I saw the both of you yesterday, when he dropped you off." Clara's eyes widen knowingly, her face starts to heat up and her twin starts laughing. "Aww, itsi bitsi Clarice has got a boyfriend."

"Shut up. Shouldn't you play the big brother who save his sister from the bad world of boys." Bobby's cheecky smile never leaves his face.

"Johnny is my best friend, I know him, so I dont need to play the role of the big bad wolf." Clara puts two slices of bread into the toaster and turns back around to look at her twin brother. "When I was with Jack you were so mad, and with Johnny whom you know for years, and you know how he ticks, you stay calm?" Bobby raises an eybrow.

"Do you want me to get mad, because I can if you want." Clara raises her arms at him in an innocent manner. "Stay calm, I was just wondering. You are being a bit weird that's all." The toaster behind Clara bings, telling her that the bread is ready. She sist down, and puts some jam on it. The twins finish their breakfast and drive to school.

>🥋<

When the twins arrive at their usual spot, to meet the other boys. They were greeted with the sight of an over entusistic Johnny, smiling like the cheshire cat when he sees them approaching. Bobby stops his bike next to his and the siblings take their helmets off. Bobby gets of the bike first and walks over to the other boys while Johnny walks to Clara who is getting of the bike.

"Hey." Johnny smiles softly at the girl, now standing in front of her. Clara's face shows a smile before she even relised it. "Hi." She answers back. Johnny starts leaning down, his hands cup her face and their lips meet for a few seconds.

"What the..." Asks Tommy from behind the couple. Bobby hits his shoulder, making him groan. "Hey, Lovebirds." Calls Bobby. "We have to get to class." Clara, whose arms were slung around the blondes torso, looks away from his blue eyes to her brother. Johnny lets go of her face and takes her hand, locking their fingers. They turn around and the group make their way to the building.

"So, you two, are a thing now?" Asks Dutch the two, looking at their intertwined hands. Johnny grins down at the girl before turning to his friend. "For sure." Answers Johnny, looking rather proud. While Johnny walks Clara to her classroom, the others split up and make their seperate ways to their own. The couple stops in front of the English classroom. Johnny take a look inside and scroffs, seening a familiar raven haired boy looking at him. Clara follows her boyfriends glare and watches Daniel as he quickly looks back down at his book.

Clara sighs, making Johnny look at her concerned. "Are you alright?" He puts his arms around her waist. "Yes, it's just he's my best friend. Could you just try to let him be, try not to be a jerk to him?" Johnny looks into her clear blue eyes and nods after a few seconds.

"I'll try." Even if he tried he couldn't resist her wishes. Clara smiles brightly at him, her arms lock around his torso "Thank you Johnny. You have no idea how much that means to me." She let's go of him and stands up on her tiptoes. She pushes her lips against his for a second before walking into the classroom. "See you later."

Clara sits down in her seat next to Daniel. "So, you and him. You are a thing now?" Clara looks shyly at the table before looking at the spot he has been standing in just seconds ago and looks at Daniel, smiling softly.

"Yeah, I guess so." Daniel nods sadly and looks from her back at the table. "That is nice, I think."

Clara sighs making him look at her. "Listen Daniel, I know you don't like him very much and he doesn't either, but could you please try to leve him alone." The boy scroffs at her words. "Tell him that, I've tried to stay away but he is the one who always starts. He doesn't let me alone."

"He promised me that he will let you be. So now I am asking you the same. Please, yu are my best freind I don't want two of the most important boys in my life to hate each other and try to kill each other at any chance given. Could you try to leave each other alone? For me?" Clara look at her friend pleading. He hesitates and thinks for a few seconds, before meeting her glance.

"Yeah, alright." He agrees. Clara smiles happily at him. "Thank you so much." The girl looks away from Daniel, suddently remembering something. "Hey Daniel?" She looks back at him. "Hhm." The boy looks quetioning at his friend.

"Tomorrow is Halloween you know and we have this Halloween dance at the school. I just wanted to ask you if you'll come and if you want to help tomorrow afternoon to prepare stuff in the gym?" Daniel forrows his eyebrows. "Ah, I don't know." Admits the boy.

"Come on Daniel. I need my homeboy at my side." Daniel laughts a bit and looks smiling at the now smiling girl. "All right I'll think about it. I promise." Clara nods at him satisfied with his answer.
