"I still don't understand how we're gonna buy alcohol." Demetri spoke in disbelief as the group picked out snacks for now.

"Would you just sit back and relax?" Alexa rolled her eyes. "Hawk can handle this."

"Yeah, what she said." he agreed, grabbing a few twenty-four packs and heading toward the counter. Alexa looped a finger into Demetris belt loop, pulling him away from Bert and closer toward her.

"Did you catch the game last night? See Puig with the walk-off?" Hawk asked as he started up a conversation with the guy behind the counter.

"Nah, man, but I heard he flipped the bat to the moon." the man answered in return with a shake of his head.

"Yeah, I was at the bar last night with my buddies from work." Hawk said back with a minor chuckles. "Whole place went wild."

"He's so weird." Alexa commented, popping her bag of chips open. "Why's he so good at that?"

"Probably watches too much tv." Demetri answered, accepting a chip as she held it out to him.

"I wanted to go, but my girlfriend dragged me to some lame-ass play." the man behind the counter rolled his eyes.

"Bitches will be bitches." Hawk agreed with him.

Alexa slapped Demetri in the chest. "Would you ever let a dude talk about me like that?"

"What?" he looked in confusion.

"You're the man behind the counter and some random dude is Hawk. What would you do if he said that?" Alexa hummed, crunching on a chip as she waiting for an answer.

Demetri reddened. "We-well, i'd probably stop talking. How strong is this guy?"

Alexa gapped in disbelief. "You would let some other guy call me a bitch and you'd just be quiet?"

"What do you want me to do? Fight him?" he held out his noodle arms. "I obviously would not agree."

Alexa rolled her eyes, giving him a hand to the face as they listened to Hawk again. "So, how much it gonna cost?"

"Gotta check your ID first." he said back with a nod.

"I'm flattered." Hawk laughed, getting a blank stare in return. "You really think i'm underage? That's my freakin kid right there."

Alexa kicked Bert in the butt to make him stumble forward more.

"Yeah, I still need to see it." he said in return, leaning on the counter. "It's required by law."

"Oh yeah, for sure. Just upholding the law." the blue haired boy said in return, pulling his wallet from his pocket and flashing a fake ID his way. Alexa watched curiously as the man looked in disbelief.

"Demetri." Alexa whispered his way. "Get the gun."

He gave her a crazy look. "What gun?"

"Whatever." the man huffed in return, passing the ID back, leaning down to get a bag. Hawk grinned back at the group, waving his hand around as Alexa did it back.

"Demetri! You aren't doing it right!" Hawk yelled at Demetri as him and Alexa stood infront of each other.

"It's fight, not now." Alexa corrected him.

Demetri tossed his hands up. "Well, i'm so sorry!"

"I will do it." Aisha cut in. "Okay. Bow to each other. And fight!"

Alexa struck first, throwing her fist toward Hawk as he caught it and kicked her in the stomach. Demetri threw his hands up. "Oh my god! No! No!"

"Fight!" Aisha encouraged. Alexa jumped up on Hawk with a yell, yanking on his neck as he lost his balance as they stumbled back. "Yeah, get him, Lex!"

Alexa pinned his hands above his head. "I got you, my little bitch."

"You're gonna mess up my hair." he shoved her off, making Alexa roll off as she threw her hands up in the air. "Let's drink!"

"Good idea." Demetri gave a point. "I saw plenty of Dr.Pepper over there."

Alexa sighed, taking his hand. "Come with me, love. Come with me."

It wasn't long until Alexas plan on getting Demetri introduced to alcohol backfired and she ended up being the drunk one. She had a beer once or twice before, but never the hard stuff, and never more then one. Demetri on the other hand, was panicking how close she was to the fire. "Lex, alcohol will make a fire a hundred times bigger and you currently are filled with only alcohol."

"Come dance with meeee." Alexa giggled, doing a twirl. "Demetriiiii."

"Come this way." he latched onto her waist, pulling her from the fire as Alexa fell into him, the two falling on the ground. "Oh my god!"

"You-you-you know you're nice and all." Alexa held his face with a shake of her head. "Yeah, you're so nice to me, Demetri. You're a good boyfriend, you know? I'm such a bad girlfriend."

"What? You aren't a bad girlfriend." he tried to sit up, but she was laid on top of him.

"You still like me, right?" she laid ontop of him a little longer. "Like, you still want me to be your lady?"

"Of course, why would you ask that?" he asked her with an odd look.

"Just don't want you to run off or anything." Alexa shut her eyes as she got tired. "Like my mom."

Demetri rolled her onto the ground as he got to his feet. "Come on, Lex. Let's go get you hydrated and sign an oath to never drink again."

"Can you carry me?" she asked hopefully.

"I can not." he wrapped an arm around her, pulling her off toward the coolers. "You can probably carry me though."

As night fall came around, Alexa started to feel some what better. She wasn't so out of it, but was leaning against Demetris knee and watching oddly as Hawk make out with Moon. "Why would he do that?"

Demetri followed her gaze. "Oh, thank god. I was thinking what he said earlier was real."

"Isn't Moon mean?" Alexa was nearly asleep as she kept falling in and out. "Demetri, will you join Cobra Kai?"

"I'm good, thanks." he said in return.

"But, what if your english teacher starts to like you?" she looked up with a hooded eyes.

"What?" he laughed down at her, his hand placed on her head. "My english teacher?"

"You'll have to know how to defend yourself." her head fell into his lap again. "I think I want to go home."

"Good idea." Demetri had to agree, standing up and pulling her to her feet. "What were you talking about my english teacher for?"

Alexa ignored him, barley getting to her feet as a little groan left her lips.

"You asshole!" a voice rung in the air as Alex looked over.

"Oh shit." she stumbled away from Demetri as she saw Sam get off the ground infront of Miguel. "Yo, Miguel, you need some help?"

"Alexa." Demetri walked after her as she stumbled to the side.

"I'll-" Alexa tried to do a kick toward Sam and the boy next to her, ending up just flipping over herself and hitting the sand.

"Oh my god." Demetri held his face in disbelief.

"My dad was right about Cobra Kai." Sam stared at Miguel with hurt in her eyes. "Good luck at the tournament. I won't be there."

"Wait! Wait!" Demetri called to Sam as she tried to go. "Care to be my uber for the night?"

Sam looked in disbelief, Demetri motioned down toward Alexa on the ground. "Shes had a lot to drink."

Sam sighed, blinking as she shook her head. "Fine. Just hurry up."

"Okay." Demetri braced himself, trying to get Alexa off the ground. "Come on, Lex. Come on. Work with me."

"I can carry her." Robby suggested, taking pity on Demetris weak arms.

"Oh, thank god." he said, dropping Alexas arms as she groaned on the ground.

Robby leaned down, rolling her over first before lifting her up. Alexa laughed, her head bouncing as they headed up the hill. Demetri walked close behind as Alexa laughed again, giving a yank to Robbys hair as he looked oddly. "Demetri, I told you you needed a haircut. When did you get so strong?"
