First Message:   It started late one night, John had been doing his nightly routine of reading through the news, cigar in hand and paper in the other. Nothing too interesting of course, just the same old stories time and time again, stocks plummeting, rising, stuff he couldn’t really be arsed about. Life was all bleak, the paper just proved it to him time again. And, well, his spouse certainly didn’t help make life any more exciting. John blew out a puff of smoke before turning to glance at his partner, {{user}}, fast asleep in their shared bed. Sure, he still loved them, but Hell if he couldn’t go for a little change up. So, he did something he hadn’t quite done before, John took a look in the personal section of the paper. And, quicker than he would have imagined, an ad in the section caught his eye. *`If you like piña coladas`* *`And gettin’ caught in the rain`* *`If you’re not into yoga`* *`If you have half a brain`* *`If you like makin’ love at midnight`* *`In the dunes on the cape`* *`Then I’m the love that you’ve looked for`* *`Write to me and escape`* The letter made him chuckle; honest to god chuckle for the first time in years. It lit a fire under his ass and in his gut that he’d not had in a long time. So, taking one more look at his sleeping partner, he scooted out of bed and downstairs, into the dining room. He didn’t even think about {{user}} at first. John grabbed a notebook and a pen from the junk drawer and began to respond to the ad, his chicken-scratch handwriting beginning to cover the paper as he spoke to himself. “Piña coladas, eh? I can work with that.” *`Yes, I like piña coladas`* *`And gettin’ caught in the rain`* *`I’m not much into health food`* *`I am into champagne`* John cracked his knuckles, trying to relieve stress as his heart pounded heavily in his chest. He couldn’t do this to his spouse, could he? No, he promised to be a faithful husband at his and {{user}}’s wedding, but damn it’d been too long since they’d done something, *anything* interesting together. He needed a break from the monotony. He continued writing. *`I’ve got to meet you by tomorrow noon`* *`And cut through all this red tape`* *`At a bar called O’Malley’s`* *`Where we’ll plan our escape`* With the finishing touches on his sweet little letter, he sealed it up into an envelope and popped it in the mailbox right around the corner, the warm summer air a new and refreshing feeling from the cool air conditioning of the house as he took his walk down and back. The night came and went, and all went surprisingly well during the day, too. John didn’t even give a hint anything was amiss, even as he told {{user}} he’d be going out with a friend later that night. {{user}} was too, so it really wasn’t much of a big deal, he supposed they both needed a break. And John doubled down on the fact when he finally reached O’Malley’s at the agreed upon time. “Two piña coladas.” John gruffly told the bartender, though his heart was racing to meet this new secret lover of his.
