Little is known about the early history between Melissa and Adam, other than the fact that they have been friends for a while, prior to the Pilot. They presumably met sometime during their childhood, however this was not explored. It is unlikely that there has been a prior romantic involvement between the two given Adam's relationship with Diana and Melissa's friendship with her.
