The Bad Boy's Rules (Sample)

Chapter 9 - Roof Top And Confessions

'' I can't believe I'm actually trusting you right now. ''

Haze chuckled, pulling over.

''Where the hell are we?" I asked, getting off the motorcycle.

''My favorite place in the world."

''This is the abandonned highschool, isn't it? The one that almost burnt to the ground?" I asked, unsure.

''Yup. That's the one." He nodded.

''Your favorite place in the world is highschool?" I mocked him a little.

''It's roof is my favorite place, smartass. Come on," He grabbed my arm.

''Why are you holding my arm? Are you scared I'm going to run away or something?" I chuckled, mocking him once more.

"Pretty much, yeah." He let go of my arm and went straight for my hand.

His touch made me jump. We were not holding hands or anything but still. He was always so comfortable and feeling his fingers on me just made me feel weird.

A nice kind of weird.

I hated myself for thinking that.

''How are you going to reach the roof?" My eyes widened as I looked at the old building.

''Just follow me, love."

He walked around the school, using some shortcut in the cemetery behind the school.

''Are you scared?" He asked, not bothering to look at me.

''No."

''Tell your hand."

In that moment, I realized I was holding his hand tighter than I thought. Oops ! I tried to take it back but he stopped me.

''Hey, I never said I didn't like it," He smirked, biting his lower lip.

I wish he was ugly.

That would make it so much easier.

''Come on, let's keep going."

After a while of walking, we reached the back of the school and stopped in front of an incredibly old looking ladder.

''No." I simply said.

''You're the one who wanted to know me."

''Technically, I never said that." I rolled my eyes.

''Shh." He laughed. "Ladies first."

I took a deep breath and stepped closer to the ladder.

''Is this even legal?"

''Of course it is, I've done it multiple times."

''Says the guy who gets away with everything. Well, guess what player, I'm not you."

''Just go, Winter." He sighed, amused.
　
I prayed god that I would survive. When I finally made it to the top, I let out a breath I didn't even know I was holding.
　
It didn't take long for Haze to join me.

''Isn't it amazing?"

It's only then that I realized there was a view. I was so concentrated on trying to breathe properly again, I didn't even bother to look around.
　
We could see the town perfectly from up there. We even had a mesmerizing view of the beach from afar. It was incredible.

''Wow." I found myself saying.
''I know. Let's sit." He placed his hand on my back to show me the way.
　
Everytime he touched me, it felt like electricity in my body and I hated that. We sat on the edge of the school's roof and we just stared at the view in silence for about 3 minutes, our feet hanging in the air.
