THE NIGHT STARTED OUT WELL ENOUGH. Bobby had told her that they were going on a double date with a friend of his, but he never mentioned who ( and to be fair, she never asked him. She was just happy to get to meet more of his friends since it had been so long ). Natalia had gone out and bought a new dress and wanted to make sure she looked presentable enough since she was still rebuilding her belongings since all she had had fit in her luggage.
Everything was turning out to be great until she saw the woman who had answered the door at the address Bobby had given her to where Johnny was… and then Johnny and her stomach dropped and suddenly she wasn’t drunk enough for what was about to happen.
Yeah, she had been avoiding going back to see Johnny but she didn’t think it would be quite appropriate after she and Bobby started dating. She was doing it out of respect and now she was feeling blindsided. She hardly touched her food and focused on a liquid dinner as the whole thing seemed more tense than anything she had ever been through before. Of course, Shannon recognized her. How could she not? Johnny hadn’t even looked at her and Bobby was so tense beside her that she could all but feel it radiating off of him.
Suddenly she stood up without saying much of anything except a murmured, “I’ll be right back.” Standing up too quickly wasn’t exactly optimal on a few glasses of wine so she steadied herself before she made her way outside and as soon as the cool night air hit her face she just began to laugh. She laughed until she had to sit down on the concrete flowerpot and then she cried. Elbows on her knees and her face in her hands and her whole body shook with the effort to contain the sobs that caused the trembling throughout her body. She was angry and she was hurting and worst of all, she was EMBARASSED. Deep down, she knew Bobby meant well and that this was something he had been pushing for, for her to actually go talk to him again but she just was finding every excuse not to so he took that excuse away from her. It was admirable, she gave him that. But it didn’t make it hurt any less.
@strkefrst & @chrmatiica P A I N for Johnny and Bobby
𝗛𝗘 𝗗𝗜𝗗𝗡'𝗧 𝗞𝗡𝗢𝗪 𝗪𝗛𝗬 𝗛𝗘 𝗧𝗛𝗢𝗨𝗚𝗛𝗧 𝗧𝗛𝗜𝗦 𝗪𝗢𝗨𝗟𝗗 𝗕𝗘 𝗔 𝗚𝗢𝗢𝗗 𝗜𝗗𝗘𝗔, he didn’t even like doing double dates as a teenager, at least as an adult he could just get drunk and try to seem like he was enjoying himself. but after getting so much crap from shannon about the random woman who had come asking for him, he knew that he had to do something to help calm her and try to make things easier for her. plus he needed a good distraction from all the shit going on, the stress of trying to provide for shannon and the baby, not knowing how his mom was doing and just waiting for everything to fall apart. a good distraction would be a double date with bobby and the girlfriend that he had been so secretive about.
𝗛𝗘 𝗛𝗔𝗗 𝗧𝗥𝗜𝗘𝗗 𝗡𝗢𝗧 𝗧𝗢 𝗔𝗥𝗚𝗨𝗘 𝗪𝗜𝗧𝗛 𝗦𝗛𝗔𝗡𝗡𝗢𝗡 𝗢𝗡 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗪𝗔𝗬, he wanted this to be a good night, he needed it to be a good night because he didn’t like the tension between them, he didn’t like that he felt pulled between her and his mom, he just wanted a good night with her and his best friend. they had beat bobby and his girlfriend to the restaurant where they meeting, waiting for them outside and he had just been checking a text message from his mom when he heard shannon say, “ it’s her. that’s the woman who came looking for you, the one you said i was acting crazy about, ” looking up from his phone and he almost thought he was dreaming for a moment to see bobby with natalia, that he barely even heard what shannon was saying next.
𝗡𝗔𝗧𝗔𝗟𝗜𝗔 𝗛𝗔𝗗 𝗔𝗟𝗪𝗔𝗬𝗦 𝗕𝗘𝗘𝗡 𝗕𝗘𝗔𝗨𝗧𝗜𝗙𝗨𝗟, she was always the person that had made his heart race and he had thought he would never see again. as an adult, she truly was beautiful like art and he didn’t know how he found the strength to look away, trying to focus on his pregnant girlfriend instead. no wonder bobby had been so secretive about his new girlfriend. he was just shocked that neither of them had thought to mention that natalia was back in the us after leaving after the tournament, she never even graduated with them and he had never heard from her again. all he had gotten was ivan telling him to stay away from her and a threat that he would make him disappear if he ever laid another hand on natalia. this was supposed to be a good night and instead he felt like it was slowly turning into a complete shitshow.
𝗝𝗢𝗛𝗡𝗡𝗬 𝗪𝗔𝗦 𝗧𝗥𝗬𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝗧𝗢 𝗔𝗖𝗧 𝗟𝗜𝗞𝗘 𝗘𝗩𝗘𝗥𝗬𝗧𝗛𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝗪𝗔𝗦 𝗙𝗜𝗡𝗘, he barely looked at natalia knowing that shannon was watching him and the way she was squeezing his leg let him know that she was still pissed that he hadn’t believed her about some random redhead coming to the apartment asking about him. never had he thought that it had been natalia. he was trying to stay talking with bobby, who he knew was just talking to fill the tense air between them. between making sure shannon was okay, talking with bobby as much as he could manage, checking his phone in case his mom needed him, he was still managing to drink more than he probably should be. what was supposed to be a fun night out to make things better had turned out to be a fucking nightmare.
𝗛𝗘 𝗕𝗔𝗥𝗘𝗟𝗬 𝗟𝗢𝗢𝗞𝗘𝗗 𝗢𝗩𝗘𝗥 𝗔𝗧 𝗡𝗔𝗧𝗔𝗟𝗜𝗔 𝗔𝗦 𝗦𝗛𝗘 𝗟𝗘𝗙𝗧 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗧𝗔𝗕𝗟𝗘, instantly feeling shannon relax with her gone from the table and he barely heard bobby as he tried to explain things quickly, “ listen man, i’ve got enough shit going on. do what you want, ” he shrugs, knowing he didn’t have the energy to fight with him, he hated fighting with bobby and as much as it hurt that no one thought he’d want to know natalia was back in the country, he couldn’t even being to process that with everything else. he almost sighed with relief when his phone went off, picking it up and instantly excusing himself to speak with his mom whilst he could, knowing bobby would hopefully keep shannon calm whilst he spoke with his mom.
𝗜𝗧 𝗛𝗨𝗥𝗧 𝗛𝗜𝗦 𝗛𝗘𝗔𝗥𝗧 𝗧𝗢 𝗛𝗘𝗔𝗥 𝗛𝗢𝗪 𝗪𝗘𝗔𝗞 𝗛𝗜𝗦 𝗠𝗢𝗠 𝗦𝗢𝗨𝗡𝗗𝗘𝗗, but he would never not take her call at the moment, just out of fear he would miss his last chance to ever talk to her. it also helped him feel a little calmer with all the shit going on, just being able to talk to her and whilst he wasn’t about to explain everything that was going on now, he knew he would be calmer after talking to her because she always called before she went to sleep. something that his mom had said finally made sense, she had talked about seeing nat again and he had thought she had too ill to realise what was going on. as much as it stung knowing natalia had seen his mom before seeing him at all, he was glad that she had seen her because his mom had always loved nat, “ i love you, mom, i’ll come and see you in the morning, ” johnny says softly, hanging up the phone and taking this moment to close his eyes and just let out a breath. he almost wished that his mom had given him a good enough excuse to leave, instead he was going to have to go back in there and act like everything was all good. yet before he could go back inside, he looked over to see natalia crying and he couldn’t help but move towards her, “ you alright? i knew this night was a complete shit show but it can’t be that bad, ” he was trying to make light of it, there was so much he wanted to say but couldn’t say to her right now because it was not the right time.

does it make up for any of the mistakes before that? no. but it is the start of pattern of johnny at least being in a place where he feels secure enough to try and be there for his son in a way he didn’t before.

December had never been a real happy month for a long time. Before, she had her birthday and Christmas and when they were younger… the karate tournament. But the last tournament had changed everything. For the both of them. But not only that, the loss of Laura was something she knew that hit harder than even a punch could.
Johnny had been doing so well with Robby. They had started spending more time together and they had even begun to train together which made Natalia happier than she could ever describe. She appreciated him trying for her, but part of her felt guilty for making him do something he didn’t want to do. “Oh I don’t know. You wouldn’t want to take a trip with me back to Russia someday?” She was wholly joking. While it was a beautiful country, she would never want to take anyone there.
“Oh, Christmas shopping is one of the biggest stress inducing activities I know of. It’s always difficult to find something for someone. Especially someone you love.” he kissed her head and she smiled and leaned into him happily. “And I’m happy you’re here, too. I know it’s hard on you. I also know how you like to get lost in your head, but I’m here now. I’m here for you, okay?” she followed him inside and they were soon led to their table.
“I did want to do something special, though. For both you and Robby. Since he never got to meet your mother. I have some old video from back when we were kids, I was thinking maybe we watch it with him Christmas Eve. If it’s not going to be hard for you, that is.” She genuinely wanted to make sure he was okay with it first.
𝗛𝗘 𝗪𝗢𝗨𝗟𝗗 𝗡𝗢𝗧 𝗟𝗘𝗧 𝗛𝗜𝗠𝗦𝗘𝗟𝗙 𝗚𝗘𝗧 𝗛𝗜𝗦 𝗢𝗪𝗡 𝗪𝗔𝗬 𝗔𝗡𝗬𝗠𝗢𝗥𝗘, not when things were better than he could ever imagine, he had natalia back in his life, he was making things right with robby and he was trying to be the best version of himself. december hadn’t always been the worst month of his life, he was trying to be in a good way to not ruin the holidays because he knew what they meant to natalia. plus with her back in his life, the anniversary of his mom’s passing hopefully wouldn’t be as hard as it used to be.
𝗝𝗢𝗛𝗡𝗡𝗬 𝗞𝗡𝗘𝗪 𝗧𝗛𝗜𝗡𝗚𝗦 𝗪𝗢𝗨𝗟𝗗𝗡'𝗧 𝗕𝗘 𝗟𝗜𝗞𝗘 𝗧𝗛𝗜𝗦 𝗪𝗜𝗧𝗛𝗢𝗨𝗧 𝗛𝗘𝗥, she had been the one to help repair things between him and robby, she made it possible especially when he had thought that he would never get things right with him. he was going to have stop acting like a grumpy asshole, especially when she was trying to make this fun for both of them, “ look, i love you and i’d go anywhere with you, but you’ve never had a good word to say about russia so i think i’ll pass, ” johnny teases with a playful wink as he looked at her.
𝗡𝗔𝗧𝗔𝗟𝗜𝗔 𝗞𝗡𝗘𝗪 𝗛𝗜𝗠 𝗕𝗘𝗧𝗧𝗘𝗥 𝗧𝗛𝗔𝗡 𝗔𝗡𝗬𝗢𝗡𝗘 𝗘𝗟𝗦𝗘, she knew when he was retreating before he even did and he could not be more grateful for her. he smiled softly as he followed her to the table, sitting down opposite her, “ yeah well, i never used to struggle getting you anything, ” he admitted, something that he was sure she was aware of considering how much he had asked for her help to try and find something for ali. here they were with her trying to help him find something for his son instead, “ you’re keeping me pretty focused right now. it’s probably the easiest this month has been in a while and i got you to thank for that, ”
" 𝗪𝗔𝗜𝗧 𝗬𝗢𝗨'𝗩𝗘 𝗚𝗢𝗧 𝗛𝗢𝗠𝗘 𝗩𝗜𝗗𝗘𝗢𝗦 𝗙𝗥𝗢𝗠 𝗕𝗔𝗖𝗞 𝗧𝗛𝗘𝗡? are you sure we wanna watch those? ” he teased, shaking his head with a soft smile. but it was the closest that robby would ever get to seeing what his mom would like. his mom had been so excited when he told her that he was going to be a dad, it had completely broken him apart that his mom never got to meet robby and it had started a spiral that he wasn’t sure he had been able to crawl out of until recently, “ despite how embarrassing it will probably be, i think it’s a good idea, ”

𝗛𝗢𝗟𝗗𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝗛𝗘𝗥 𝗛𝗔𝗡𝗗, elijah in his other arm as they were stood near his mom and whoever she was talking to, not really paying attention to the conversation as he pulled natalia closer to press a kiss to her cheek, “ did i get a chance to tell you that you look beautiful tonight? ” he asked with a small smile, letting go of her hand to wrap his arm around her waist and pull her to his side. it felt good for them to be openly affectionate with one another, to not have to be so secretive anymore, they could be how they had been with one another for so long without hiding. a familiar voice pulled his attention away from the conversation for a moment and he couldn’t help but smirk softly as he pressed another kiss to the side of nat’s head before whispering in her ear, “ don’t look now, but we may be in for a whirlwind of ali mills chaos. guess she’s home for college . . . we can leave if you’d prefer to do that, ”

𝗛𝗘 𝗛𝗔𝗗 𝗧𝗥𝗜𝗘𝗗 𝗛𝗜𝗦 𝗕𝗘𝗦𝗧 𝗧𝗢 𝗞𝗘𝗘𝗣 𝗔 𝗗𝗜𝗦𝗧𝗔𝗡𝗖𝗘 𝗙𝗥𝗢𝗠 𝗛𝗘𝗥, he had felt a little exposed after that night in his apartment and he knew as much as she wouldn’t tell anyone, he didn’t know if he could let her back in. yet the more they did for the wedding, the more he felt like it was easy to fall back into old behaviours, little flirty comments during the dance lessons, catching each other’s eyes and giving each other the same look. however, he would try to keep catching himself before he let himself get back into a place that he didn’t want to go back to. he would always love natalia, he knew that and it would be so EASY to fall back in deep, but with everything going on, he could not handle more heartbreak.
𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗗𝗔𝗬 𝗢𝗙 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗪𝗘𝗗𝗗𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝗔𝗥𝗥𝗜𝗩𝗘𝗗, he had just kept his distance from natalia at the start of the day, focusing on whatever bobby needed him to do. he couldn’t help but notice how BEAUTIFUL she looked in her dress, the way her hair was done and she really looked amazing for her age. whereas he could still see the shadow of the bruises on his face from when she had bailed him out and he definitely felt like he was the last person who should be here. but as the reception continued and the drinks started pouring, he couldn’t keep himself away from her anymore. he had spotted her still doing things for bobby’s wife, instead of actually enjoying herself and as the music changed to one of her favourite songs.
𝗧𝗔𝗞𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝗛𝗘𝗥 𝗛𝗔𝗡𝗗 𝗚𝗘𝗡𝗧𝗟𝗬, thumb brushing over her knuckles as he smiled at her, “ you know i hate dancing, but i know you love this song, so dance with me, ” johnny said softly, pulling her closer to him, his other hand resting on her lower back. this felt normal to him, it was like history repeating itself. when he was with nat, he didn’t feel like the absolute failure that he usually was, he felt like he was back to being that teenager again. he wanted to enjoy this time with her, he wasn’t going to keep pushing her away because who knows after this night if he will ever see again. moving with her to the music, he couldn’t take his eyes off her and he knew he was smiling more than he had in days, “ i’m sorry i’ve been an asshole recently. a lot of shit has happened and i didn’t expect to see you whilst all of this was going on, ”

⋯ ⤐ ❛ is it really you? ❜
Natalia had heard about the fight in the school and how a lot of kids got injured and she had stayed away for years not wanting to make anything worse, but hearing this? She couldn’t stay away anymore. Bobby was the one who had called her and told her that Johnny had been arrested but she wanted to be the one to bail him out. It needed to be her.
Hands dug into the pocket of the jacket she wore, one that was should be fairly familiar to him as it was his. Everything had been paid and she had the bag of his belongings on the table next to her as she stood and waited for him to be released. A small smile pulled across ruby stained lips as she nodded, reaching up to push up the sunglasses she was wearing. “I would say it was a figment of your imagination but by the looks of you, that might actually be correct.” a low whistle came as she stepped closer as she looked up at his face and the smile quickly faded.
Seeing him like this was too close of a reminder and she hated that he got hurt. “Yes, Johnny. It’s me.” She was standing right in front of him, afraid to take her hands out of her pockets because she knew that she would reach out to him and she was unsure about if he would want that. They hadn’t exactly parted on the best terms, and it had been years since she’d seen him.
“Come on, let’s get you out of here. Get you cleaned up and some food in your stomach so I can take a look at your face.” she turned from him so that she wouldn’t lose her resolve and she grabbed his bag and slipped her glasses back on before making her way outside so she could at least get a little bit of fresh air because it was taking every ounce of restraint she had not to throw her arms around him and hold him close. Natalia had missed him more than she cared to admit to anyone, let alone herself.

“I DON’T WANT YOUR HELP, OR ANYONE’S.” He sighs, tired, side glance as he keeps picking up his supplies as he now has a place to live. even if the person giving him a place is the same who he knew hurt his father once. but Kreese offers him stability in the best way he knows how ; anger. it’s better than feeling hurt all the damn time. he moves away, the black eye standing up and proud on his features as he does it. everyone knows the methods of training can be ruthless. and robby takes it. “you all tried to help and only made it worst. because that’s all you do. so, kindly. . .fuck off.“ and he picks up more snacks, moving toward the cashier.
OPEN STARTERS.
𝗧𝗛𝗜𝗦 𝗪𝗔𝗦 𝗛𝗜𝗦 𝗢𝗪𝗡 𝗙𝗔𝗨𝗟𝗧, his own son hated him more than anyone else and he had done this. it killed him even more that robby thought he was safe and finally had a place he belonged with kreese and cobra kai, a feeling that he was all too familiar with. he could see that kreese was manipulating him in the same way he had him when he was a teenager desperately looking for somewhere to feel strong and that he belonged, “ i don’t give if you don’t want my help. i’m not giving up on you, robby, ” he admitted, following him wherever he moved to because he wasn’t about to walk away, he was done doing that, he was going to make this right. blocking his path, finally getting a good look at his face, lips parting at the sight of bruises on his face. yes, cobra kai training was tough and harsh, he had walked out with bruised knuckles and an aching body. but this was something different, something that made his blood boil and a chill go down his spine, “ what the fuck happened to you? who did that to you? ”
