CHAPTER ONE: Meeting Mr. Handsome

Things weren't always bad. In fact, Josh had once been loving, sweet, and charming. Loving him had been easy, at first. Now, now it was a nightmare Lily couldn't escape.

*~*~Flashback*~*~

"Don't look now but you have an admirer?" Alice whispered just loud enough for Lily to hear over the restaurant noise. Lily raised her eyebrow curiously at her friend before glancing around, locating Mr. Tall Dark & Handsome.

He sat at a back table all alone. His blue eyes, so light they were almost gray, stared at her with an intense focus. Their eyes met, his lips curling into a breathtaking smile.

"Your blushing!" Alice all but squealed in her ear. "Go talk to him. He's been staring at you for the last five minutes."

"No! No way." Lily said, her eyes finally leaving Mr. Handsome.

"Lily Marie Evans! For once in your life do something exciting!" Alice exclaimed, before shoving Lily to her feet in the direction Mr. Handsome.

Lily shot Alice a glare before continuing on the path her friend had forced her on.

"Hi." She said. "Care for some company?"

"How can a man say no to a woman as beautiful as you." Mr. Handsome replied, giving her yet another breathtaking smile. Lily felt her cheeks heat indicating her deep blush.

It was almost sinful how good-looking he was. Lily hadn't stood a chance. Things started out slow. Mr. Handsome, or Josh has she later discovered was his name, was 3 years older than her and a Hogwarts alumni. He worked for the Wizard's Quidditch Committee (WQC) as an International Director. One conversation turned into dozens of letters. Josh was so sweet. He would frequently send her flowers and various gifts but between Hogwarts and his work travels, Josh and Lily didn't get to see each other much. It didn't seem to matter, however because by the end of 6th year Josh and Lily had been dating for months.

"I missed you." Josh said, greeting her with a kiss and his usual trade mark smile that always made her stomach do cartwheels.

"I missed you too." She said, her arms still wrapped around him in a tender embrace.

"I have a surprise for you." He said smiling at her, his beautiful blue/gray eyes bright with excitement.

"You mean beyond your meeting me at the station? You should have told me you were going to be here I would have cleaned up a bit. I'm a mess, sitting on the train for hours."

"You look beautiful, as always." He said, "but no this isn't my surprise. The WQC has some local business that they want me to manage so I'll be in London all summer…no traveling."

"You're going to be in London all summer!" Lily exclaimed, excited by the prospect of having her boyfriend over the summer holiday.

He chuckled at her excitement. "Yes, and I want you all to myself." He whispered privately in her ear. His voice suddenly deeper, sexier, making Lily's heart flutter with excitement and desire. He kissed her, not like the kiss they had shared moments before. This kiss was much more intimate. Lily could feel his passion as his teeth grazed her lips, playfully nipping. All too soon, he pulled away leaving Lily feeling breathless and hot. He, however appeared to be undisturbed even calm, except for his eyes. His eyes were the only things that told of his desire. His gazed roamed her body.

"Come let's get you home." He said leading her away from the train station. He pulled her along, his body holding her in a tender embrace.
