Tattoos Mean Forever (Cobra Kai- Hawk Love Story)

Chapter 15

Hawk's pov

I stare at my phone.

I'm sorry. Can we talk?

15 minutes pass by. No response.

Frustrated, I throw my phone on my bed and punch the wall by my bed.

Breaking through, I pull my hand out and wince at my now bloodied knuckles.

Good thing my mom was out. I'll just have to cover up the hole with a poster or some shit.

I head to the bathroom and run my hand under the water and watch the blood seep out into the sink. I look up and stare at my reflection.

How the fuck did I go into the party feeling confident and excited only to leave with the one girl that mattered hating me and everyone else back to making fun of me.

I take a couple of calming breaths so I wouldn't end up punching the mirror which would be harder to explain than the wall.

Fucking Demetri. I'm actually going to kill that kid. Mercy my ass. He deserves everything coming his way.

I successfully manage to remake myself and he decides to drag up the worst parts of my past back up in front of everyone in the worst way possible.

If it wasn't for the cops showing up, I would've beaten him to a pulp.

He definitely needs to watch his back because first day of school's tomorrow and he's my main target. I smirk evilly at my reflection.

At least Mia wasn't there to witness his dumb "toast."

I briefly shut my eyes as her face comes back into my head. I really wish I could talk to her right now. She's the only person that could understand what I'm going through.

I curse myself for not checking for her outside at the beginning of the party. If I had, I would've managed to avoid every other disaster that had occurred.

I open my eyes and turn off the running water. I wrap my hand and head back to my room to sleep the night off.

Hopefully, I can get Mia alone tomorrow and somehow convince her to give me another chance.

Mia's pov

I wake up early the next morning to get ready for my first day of school and groan at my sore knuckles.

Glad I wasn't hungover, I push myself out of bed, I head to my closet to decide what to wear.

While I'm excited to check out my new school, having to see Hawk and potentially even have classes with him sounds like a nightmare I'd rather avoid as long as possible.

Before I could decide on a final outfit, my dad's voice carries through to my room.

"Honey! I have to leave but the school just left you a voicemail"

I scrunch my eyebrows in confusion. "Ok dad" I shout back.

I make my way downstairs as I hear his car back out. I head over to the home phone and press the button to listen to the message.

"Good morning Mrs. Donero. As you may be aware, today is the first day of school at West Valley High. Unfortunately, there was an error in your transfer from your previous school that we did not manage to catch until late last night. But not to worry, we are getting everything sorted right away and everything will be in order for you to begin your first day at West Valley tomorrow. Very sorry for the inconvenience, have a great day." the answering machine beeps off.

I sigh. Looks like my prayers were answered and I get a free day today.

I grab my phone and quickly call Tory.

"Hey Tor, I just got a call from the school about some error in my transfer. Looks like I'm not starting school until tomorrow. How are you feeling after last night?"

The line goes silent. "Hello?"

"Sorry, yeah I'm doing fine, my head's just pounding a little, but the pill I took should cure that pretty fast. Anyways, damn, I was actually thinking of doing something that would make our first day without a doubt the most memorable"

"I'm intrigued, what is it" I ask.

"Well.." she starts. "I was thinking last night about how that bitch Sam shouldn't be able to get away with being a little slut since it was clearly her who made the move on Miguel"

"Right" I respond, waiting for more elaboration.

"So I was planning to hijack the announcements and challenge her in the hall to take her down once and for all. While I'm handling the announcements, you would be waiting outside her class to make sure she doesn't make a run for it. Then we take her down and anyone else who dares get in our way" she finishes.

I mull over her idea. "I like it. Can you handle it on your own?"

She pauses for a few seconds. "Yeah definitely. It's my beef with her anyway, so I probably shouldn't be dragging you into this. Besides, two against one would be way too easy."

"True. Still, I would love to kick her ass and wipe that smug look off her face." I almost smile to myself as the thought of it crosses my mind.

"Wait I have an idea. Why don't you come to the school during the passing period between 3rd and 4th period. I'll send you the bell schedule and then I can ditch 4th and we can chill until lunch while I fill you in on how I kicked LaRusso's ass"

I start to agree before I stop. "I don't know"

She pauses.

"Is this about Hawk?"

My silence is treated as a yes.

"Girl you are so much better than him. I'd say you're even way out of his league. Trust me, all of the guys in Cobra Kai think you're hot and I have no doubt every guy at school will think the same way. If you come, I can even help you pick out a decent one" I hear her grin through the phone.

"Ok fine" I resign. "I guess if you can face Miguel, I should be able to face Hawk no problem."

"Great! I'll send you the schedule in a sec"

We say bye and hang up.

After receiving the schedule from her, I check the times and set an alarm on my phone to go slightly earlier to check out the school.
