Trigger warning- mentions of sexual assault

Harley's POV

I opened the door to the empty classroom quickly while making sure no one saw me. I turned around to find Bini and my mouth dropped from what I saw. The ceiling was enchanted like the one in the great hall to look like the sky outside except there wasn't any candles floating to block so much of it.

The sky was clear and full of stars, it was quite a beautiful site, it and candles that were set around a picnic blanket were the only thing that lit the room. The picnic blanket had a few pillows laid on it and of course my very handsome boyfriend was sprawled across it holding a single red rose in the air.

I smiled brightly at him. I was at a lost of words. He stood up quickly when he realized I had entered and slowly walked towards me. His face was just as brightly lit which made me smile wider. Nothing was more joyful and calming then his smile. He didn't truly smile often but when he did time stopped.

"Do you like it?" He asked wrapping his hands around my waist and quickly grazing his lips over mine.

"Of course I like it. It's beautiful." I continued to look around the room before finally meeting my eyes with his. "I love it. Thank you."

"Anything for my Ace. This is for you." He handed me the Rose before turning around and walking me to the blanket.

"It's lovely. How did you have time to do all this?" I asked as he sat next to me. He set one of his hands on my thigh as I grabbed his other hand to play with.

"Finished dinner early."

"So what are we going to do?"

"I don't know. I figured we could just talk. I do get to ask you one very personal question."

"Yes you do. I did say you could do that a couple days ago." We both lied down with our hands still intertwined as we stared at the ceiling. "So what are you going to ask me?"

"Not quite sure yet. I don't know what my boundaries are."

"So you have a question but you aren't sure if I am okay if you ask it."

"Yes."

"Just ask it. I think you need to know things anyways."

"Do you remember when the entire Jimmy incident happened?" I nodded knowing that that is one of the things that I probably won't ever forget. "Why is it you reacted the way you did? And what did you mean when you asked Lane why that stuff happened before?"

"Do you remember when I dated Aiden Grace?"

"I think so. You dated him a couple months after the yule ball right?"

"Yeah. So we went to a ravenclaw party a month and a half into us dating and I got more intoxicated then what I thought I was going to be. I only had a couple drinks."

"Did he roofie you?" He interrupted.

"Think so. Anyways he ended up taking me to his dormitory and I kept telling him to stop." Tears were beginning to fill my eyes thinking back to the memory. "I guess I partially lied when I told you that that was my first time."

"So you- he-." He looked terrified and angry all at once.

"Yeah he did."

"I am so s-" I put my finger on his lips making him stop speaking.

"Please don't apologize." He nodded. He turned his body so now he was completely facing me moving his hand to my waist trying to keep me close. "You asked me a question. Now I ask you. Why'd you help me with Jimmy?"
