“Aww, thank you Delilah. I do pride myself on being absolutely adorable… as well as funny, charismatic, charming, not-so-shockingly god-like in bed… I could honestly go on for hours” he started in response to her explaining that he made a ‘cute effort’, a smile present on his face to indicate he was simply joking… in a sense. Though another laugh met his lips when she read straight through his act. Though, again, this wasn’t a favor he was asking for. It was repayment.
Daniel shook his head with a lazy grin when the girl started speaking about her ‘way too many’ plans. Though, Daniel knew he needed to tread lightly with one Delilah Hawthorne. She wasn’t one to be threatened… not directly at least. “Aww, I’m always worth a cancellation or two, Delilah. And we both know I’m a delight to be around” Daniel started, a boyish attitude returning to the surface, “But let’s be honest - I just need half an hour of your time. Maybe 40 minutes depending on how long valet takes. Just a simple enter the party, eat some appetizers, say hello to the parentals, and you’re done,” he started, “and we both know you owe me more than one favor, Delilah. And you also know what happens to those who don’t repay,” he added in as a last-minute motivator. It was true, Daniel had torn down more than one individual who thought they could get away with not paying him back. Sure Daniel wasn’t jock that could bench 200 pounds - but he could find every dirty secret a person was hiding and reveal it to the world. Though this was a war that neither Delilah nor, Daniel would ever want to start - hence exactly why he knew despite any superficial arguments, she’d be there tomorrow night.
“6:00 PM. Formal wear. - though I wouldn’t necessarily mind if you showed up in something like this,” he nodded to her dress once again with a wink.
