Isn't a relationship supposed to be beautiful. Lily thought to herself as she paced around the Head's dorm room.

Thinking over her first relationship, it's a bit pathetic really, she's 17 and her first relationship is only two months in the making. She would like to say it was just her lack of experience that made Adam seem aggressive and always pushing her boundaries.

But maybe that's just how relationships work, not everything can be right out of a harlequin novel. But still something seemed off. Adam Moore was only a year older than her, being in his seventh year and herself in her sixth. But he seemed so overpowering.

Lying in bed she, needless to say, did not get a full nights sleep. James had stopped prodding her to date him when she started dating Adam, instead he decided to make himself a close friend of hers. It almost felt foreign to Lily. Not having a dashing Potter chasing after her. She was still not speaking to Severus even though the incident was over a year ago. He had never attempted to apologize so she tried not to give it a second thought.

The next morning Lily was eating breakfast with her friends Hestia and Alice when a hand covered her eyes and mouth from behind, letting out a squeal she tried to pull the persons hands off her.

"Guess who", came a voice that could only belong to a certain trouble maker.

"Potter let go", she laughed as he released her eyes.

"Sorry Evans couldn't help myself", he said winking at her. She fought against the warmth that was spreading to her cheeks. Oh he loved to make her blush. It was satisfying to him that even with her boyfriend he could make Lily feel flattered. He couldn't help but stare at her until a man cleared his throat rather loudly, breaking his concentration.

"Am I interrupting something, Potter?"

"Not at all Moore, I was just making Lils blush", James said with a chuckle and Lily laughed along.

Getting up from her seat she wrapped her arms around him, "Good morning Adam." He grabbed her chin and kissed her hard on the mouth to make a point to James that Lily was his, despite her hatred of public displays of affection. He knew that James was still crazy about his girlfriend and he'd be damned if he let a Potter take his girl.

Adam was always a bit possessive over Lily and that did not go unnoticed to her. She pulled out of his embrace and went to sit back down when Adam pulled on her arm and tugged her close to him. "Lily, come with me for a minute?"

Her gut told her no but she turned and told her friends she'd be back soon and Adam led her out of the Great Hall. Leaving a frustrated James to eat breakfast with his boys and not his love.

Adam led Lily up the stairs to the Hufflepuff common room and then tugged her up the stairs to his room.

"Here take a seat Lily", she let herself fall onto his unmade bed but kept her legs over the side in a sitting position. From behind his back he pulled out a red rose and handed it to her. Wary of the thorns, she brought the petals up to her nose to smell them.

"Aww Adam it's lovely." He smiled at her appreciation and kissed his girlfriend hard on the mouth once again. Lily was surprised by the sudden motion but kissed back. His mouth was unpleasantly aggressive as were his actions as he pushed her back onto his bed. His hands went from her face to her back and then up her shirt. Lily tensed at his action and tried to pull away but her rejection went unnoticed as he unclasped her bra with one hand. Lily pulled away, more forcefully this time.

"Adam stop thats to far." She was relieved when he pulled his hand out of her shirt, but a bit unhappy when he took her bra as well. Looking into his eyes she was shocked to see that he looked angry.

"God Lily why do we always have to stop!? I want to feel my girlfriend is that a crime?!" He was not yelling but his voice was raised. Lily raised her eyebrows.

"Because I don't feel comfortable with going further yet!"

Adam let out an angry sigh, "well how much longer?! Fuck Lily we've been dating for two months and this is the most action I've gotten from you!"

Lily glared at her boyfriend, "I said I wasn't ready you inconsiderate prick!"

His eyes darkened and before she knew what was happening she heard a loud smack and her cheek began to sting. Her eyes watered from the pain but she forced herself not to cry, in shock that Adam, her Adam, had hit her.

He looked at her red cheek and his own hand as if realizing what he had done and reached out to hold her. Her body grew stiff being near him but he did not notice. "Fuck Lily I'm so sorry I didn't mean to, it's just when you said that it upset me so much don't say things like that again to me okay Lily?"

She nodded into his chest before saying, "I don't feel to well I think I'm going to stay in instead of going to class today." He sighed and nodded.

"I'll walk you back to your dorm."

When they got to the Gryffindor common room, Lily had adjusted her hair so the slight bruise wasn't visible and Adam kissed her before taking off for class.

"I love you Lily", Adam called out but she pretended not to hear him.
