ever since eagle fang and miyagi do joined forces, with a few of cobra kai's members transferring over, hawk had been trying to get gioia's attention. whether it was standing next to her during a lesson or trying to be her spar partner, the boy was following her around like a lost puppy for days as he tried to make amends.
gioia wouldn't lie and say she didn't appreciate the effort he was putting in to rekindle their friendship, but something stopped her from completely forgiving him. everyone else in the dojo was able to at least tolerate his presence, even demetri had half heartedly forgiven him.
"dude, this is embarrassing to watch." demetri sighed, stretching his legs as a cool down from that day's lesson.
hawk quickly took his eyes off the blonde girl who was packing up equipment, and turned to his two friends.
"just talk to her." miguel shook his head, surprised the two weren't instant friends again.
"i can't just talk to her." hawk groaned. "i see the way her mood changes when i'm around her, she flinches when i move too close. it's no use."
"the tension is dangerous." demetri told him. "maybe you guys just need to..." the boy winked, sticking his tongue out.
miguel gave him a look, weirdly knowing exactly what he was talking about. "why would they need to do that?"
"to ease their sexual tension." demetri stated.
"sexual?"
"who said anything about sexual?" hawk huffed, "she's afraid of me."
"well, you're just going to have to prove to her that there's nothing to be afraid of." demetri said. he looked at the boy for a moment before glancing at his now healed arm. "that might be hard."
hawk sighed, "yeah, i know. i'm really sorry man."
"just take her out somewhere." miguel finally suggested. "you're both over-exaggerating the situation."
"you think she'd want to be alone with me?" hawk questioned his two closest friends.
"it's not like it's a date." miguel explained. "just a hangout. you guys used to hang all the time, i mean you got tattoos together."
"i didn't get one."
"only problem is eli here wants it to be a date." demetri exposed him.
"dude!" hawk's cheeks heated up in embarrassment.
"look, even if you did want that, you can't." miguel began. "you have to mend your friendship before you can even consider anything more. so go over, give her a smile and ask if she's free tonight."
