The Bad Boy & I [ON HOLD]

Rides & Cliffs (Unedited)

Ariana's POV

"Where are we going?" I asked Jake. We left the gym and were in the parking lot.

"Do you trust me?" He asked as we got to his car. It was a sleek black Mercedes Benz.

"Yes." I said confused.

"Then let's go on an adventure." He said and got in. I laughed and got in the car also. He started up the car and we drove out of the parking lot.

"You know, I'm starting to think the bad boy isn't bad at all." I teased. He tensed up slightly.

"Aria, I am bad." He said softly and in his voice held a hint of shame?

"Jake, all of us are bad." I said looking out the window. "Screws fall out all the time. The worlds an imperfect place." I shrugged.

"The Breakfast Club." He grinned and I looked at him in surprise. "Yes, I watched it. I do like good movies you know." He laughed.

"Why do they call you the bad boy?" I randomly asked and he looked confused. "I mean, are you a player?" I asked. He looked at me amused.

"Yes." He answered.

"Okay. Do you break the rules?" I asked.

"Did you really just ask me that?" He gave me an are-you-serious look.

"Okay, do you have the bad boy background? You don't have to tell me your past. That's your shit not mine. Just, do you?"

"Yes." He said impressed.

"What?" I raised an eyebrow.

"You didn't pry into my past." He said.

"Was I supposed to?" I asked rhetorically. He grinned and didn't say anything else. "Okay so you have the hotness, the mystery, you're a player, the past, yet your in the car with the schools nobody." I questioned. "You are something else Gray." I shook my head and looked out the window.

"Why do you say that?" He asked softly.

"Say what?" I asked.

"That you're a nobody."

"Cause I am." I shrugged.

"No you're not." He denied.

"Jake, you didn't know I existed until the dance." I laughed.

And you still don't know I exist.

"Why deny it right?" I finally looked at him and he looked angry and pitiful. He only grunted in response. We rode in silence for a while. "Hey where are we going?" I asked.

"Well, you said you like high places right?" He smirked and I raised an eyebrow. He pulled into a dirt road and we arrived at an old warehouse. We exited but he stayed silent. He unlocked the door and it was pitch black due to it being 9:30 at night. The lights flicked on and i gasped at all the vehicles in front of me. There was huge trucks, ATV's, motorcycles, dirt bikes, old nice cars, it was a heaven for me.

"Woah." I said breathlessly. "This is a dreamland." I said in awe. He raised an eyebrow confused. I shrugged at him. "So what are we taking?" I said excitedly and he still had a confused expression. "What?"

"You're, you're excited about cars?" He asked and I nodded in a "duh" way.

"Most girls are into shopping, some are into beauty, I'm into boy stuff. Cars, off-roading, paintball wars, basically everything opposite of Jessica." I listed and he mumbled something under his breath. I laughed and followed him to one of the ATV's. He got on and waited.
