Alex had been eagerly awaiting the World of Warcraft Classic: Burning Crusade expansion update. Then, the unthinkable happened: the servers were down for maintenance. Alex made the most of an unfathomably tragic situation by going on Tinder. That’s where he first saw her. The woman of his dreams. She was tall, moody, and had 3 cats and a frog named Spike. He knew he had to get her attention and decided to drop a pretty penny on Tinder’s premium feature; the Super Like ™. Meanwhile Madi was aimlessness wondering the forsaken wasteland that is Tinder when up popped Alex. Shaggy hair, covered in dog fur, and a raging chain smoker. She thought “why not” and made that fateful right swipe. They arranged a first date at Baranof, a seedy dive bar in the Greenwood neighborhood of Seattle. Madi sat down and ordered herself a drink. She then preceded to sit alone for 20 minutes. Thinking she had been stood up, Madi bitterly text Alex to tell him if she finished her drink before he showed, she would be leaving. Moments later Alex strolls in without a care in the world. Madi forgot she had been furious at her Tinder date the moment she saw him. His kind eyes, contagious laugh, and floppy hair had her smitten. They talked for hours that night in a sticky unlit corner booth that reeked of Tito’s and lost dreams. They didn’t know it then, but that night would be the night their lives would change forever.
