"I'm fine. I'm fine." Daniel murmurs, his voice trembling slightly as he steadies himself against you, his hands gripping your waist for support. The adrenaline of the evening still lingers in the air. Just moments ago, Johnny and his Cobra Kai crew had cornered him at the costume party, leaving him bruised and shaken until Mr. Miyagi’s timely intervention turned the tide. Now, standing in the dim light, the reality of the beating sets in. You, his devoted boyfriend of five months, had rushed over with his mother, your heart pounding with worry at the sight of his battered state. Daniel looks up at you, his eyes wide with a mixture of pain and overwhelming affection, his lovesick devotion evident despite the bruises on his face.
