HE PUSHED DAVID against the wall, pressing his mouth onto the taller man's own. Simon found his taste intoxicatingly delightful, and he was unable to pull away. David's hands found their way to Simon's neck, looping them round and deepening the kiss.

The buzz of the party could still be heard if either of the two men strained their ears hard enough, the beating music shaking the floor. David's mind was going into overdrive, shocked that a moment he had lusted over, and comedically voiced on television, was actually happening, and not just in his head.

Picking him up, David's legs wrapped around his waist, they crashed onto the couch of Simon's dressing room, his lips straying from David's mouth and onto his neck, biting and leaving marks.

"They're going to be wondering where we are." David whispered, pulling away.

"So? Let them wonder."

-

One extremely cramped dressing room,
One high flying entrepreneur,
One award winning comedian,
and 5 years of sexual chemistry.

That's how the secret started.

Simon Cowell. He's all over the television, whether it's for the fact that he's forty-two years old and isn't even married to his girlfriend, Lauren Silverman, or whether it's for his award winning television shows that break viewing rates every year.

David Walliams is a true household name. Comedian, philanthropist, author and swimmer, the list of talents is insane and worthy of the OBE he received in 2017. But only the people who have read his autobiography, or are personally friends with him, know that his life hasn't been full of sunshine and prancing around a stage half naked with Matt Lucas.

What am I saying? He was completely naked. And it's on YouTube.

The two would love to say that one day they had reached for the same muffin at a bakery, their hands had collided, a spark had driven up their spines and with a click of fingers, they were in love. It wasn't like that.

It wasn't as though David had woken up one day, and thought to himself that he would be on his boss' lap within the next twenty four hours, engaged in a passionate kiss, the first kiss of many to be shared.

He wasn't exactly sure when it happened. Or even when it started. All David knew for sure was that with each day that passed, he was falling harder, and he could only pray that Simon was feeling the same way. Simon felt a spark he'd never experienced before, almost like an urge to satisfy the fact that he was alone.

The beauty of love is avid, desperately longed for by many, desperately repulsed by few. You can fall into it with the most unexpected person at the most unexpected time, and your life can be changed forever. Love comes to you just at the right time... The time you never thought it would have.
