Nick was sitting alone in his studio apartment. friday night and he didn't have a date. Everybody in zootopia had dates on friday night. Every mammal, except him, and he had nothing to do. Judy had gotten mad at him again, and therfore wasnt talking to him. He sat at his kitchen table and scrolled through the online version of the Zootopian Gazette. he caught a glimps of something in the personals.

Care to Escape?

If you like piña coladas and getting caught in the rain

If you're not into yoga, if you have half a brain

If you like making love at midnight in the dunes of the cape

Then I'm the lady you've looked for, write to me and escape

Nick reread the ad a few times. he decided that it was probably a longshot, this could be a buffalo or elephant, for all he knew it could be a doormouse, but he replied anyway.

Find the Rose and Escape.

Yes, I like piña coladas and getting caught in the rain

I'm not much into health food, I am into champagne

I've got to meet you by tomorrow noon, cut through all this red tape

At a bar called O'Malley's where we'll plan our escape

Nick watched his phone for a long moment and wondered if he was somehow betraying judy. it's not like they were a couple. she didn't even seem to have any interest in him. No romantic interest anyway.

Nick sat at the corner table of Thomas O'Malley's Tavern. he placed the single lavender rose on the table and waited for his mystery mammal. he looked at his phone and browsed through his photos. he was the only mammal there apart from the owners, Thomas and Duchess O'Malley, a cougar couple. the time on his phone said 11:57.

He heard the door's bell jungle and he saw her. that smile, those lips, the curve of her face. she looked around and settled her gaze on him. her frown evaporated being replaced with a soft smile.

"I should have known it was you," Judy said.

"Are you disapointed?" Nick asked, pulling out her chair

"Not at all! in fact i'm glad it was you!" Judy said sitting down. they laughed for a moment

"Figure out what you want?" Thomas asked from the far side of the bar

"Lets start with a couple pina coladas and we'll go from there." Nick said

AN: this will be continued, you have been warned.
