Sam just moved to LA from New Zealand. Whilst trying to adjust to American life, she meets Daniel, much the same as Sam, he is also trying to adjust. Both come across Johnny; a snarky, mysterious and handsome blonde; both have very different experiences. Can Sam fight her feelings? Will she be able to adjust to life and be able to overcome the troubles ahead?
Fanfic about Johnny from Karate Kid.
Loosely based, not verbatim!
I have changed the ages to match how old they were in 1984 to justify me making some of it heated. And I changed the terms of the all valley championship to be under 20s to match it up!
Named after the Van Halen song from 5150.

Johnny looked at me with hurt he quickly spoke up and said "For the longest time I saw myself as a bad person...you dont know how much it meant to me when you looked at me and could see the good.." and my heart sank as he walked away. (Y/N) and Johnny have known each other since they were kids, sharing memories that few others could understand. Growing up side by side, their bond deepened, evolving from friendship into something neither could quite put into words. (Y/N) is fierce, independent, and resilient, qualities that make her stand out. As a former Cobra Kai student herself, she understands Johnny's world better than anyone else. But lately, something has shifted. Whenever Johnny's around, her heart races, and a soft blush colors her cheeks. She finds herself wondering, "Do I love him?" The thought leaves her anxious, teetering between wanting to confess her feelings or keeping them hidden to protect their friendship. Little does she know, Johnny might just feel the same way, but will either of them take the leap, or will they keep circling around what they truly mean to each other? NOTE; The story will slightly be altered, nothing major though for the beginning, however after the tournament i will add in fillers to make the story interesting and so you and johnny have more time to experience things together.
