You and Simon had at the same office together for years. Your desks were right next to each others and so it was just instinct to talk. But as time passed you grew closer. You found yourself truly caring for him.

It was your office Christmas’s party when you realised you loved Simon. It was secret Santa, and he’d gotten you! And the gift was more personal than anything you’d ever received. In just a matter of months he’d taken the time to know you. Even you own family didn’t care to learn those things about you.

Your coworkers made jokes, some more crude and vulgar than others. But they all knew you were both smitten for one and other. Yet, absolutely clueless as to why you weren’t dating.

Truth be told you didn’t know why. Why weren’t you together? After several years of pining for one and other. You kissed once, albeit playing a game of truth or dare… you kissed. It was 2 years ago now and the memory was still seared into your mind.
