S:
Eden, I am in dire need of your help.

Eden:
Are you dying?

S:
No?

Eden:
Then it isn't dire.

S:
Eden, it's D I R E

Eden:
Explain.

S:
I forgot I have a date tomorrow.

Eden:
Oh, the horror.

S:
Your sarcasm isn't appreciated.

Eden:
The sarcasm was about as much a care as I could muster.

S:
How much would you be willing to do a handsome, nameless stranger a huge favour?

Eden:
I don't deal in favours, S.

S:
You'll get paid.

Eden:
Colour me intrigued.

S:
Would you be able to drop me off a bouquet of flowers tomorrow at my work?

Eden:
You almost had me.

S:
What?

Eden:
If I drop you off flowers, then you'd see me. You'd know what I looked like. Clever ruse.

S:
It genuinely isn't a ruse. I'm way too many beers deep to drive to a florist now, even if there were any open. There won't be any open in the morning before I go to work, and I sure as shit haven't got the time to go after. Do me a solid?

Eden:
Go on your lunch break.

S:
Im working over my lunches for overtime. Do you know how expensive it is to buy flowers for every date?

Eden:
Oh my estimations of you have fallen so tragically.

S:
Yeah, I know, I'm a dog. Woof. Please?

Eden:
Fine. But I'm not dropping them off. I'll get someone else to. And I'll need somewhere to send an invoice to.

S:
I'll text you my work email.

S:

S:
That's her. Use your best judgement, make them pretty. I know you will, but make it look like I thought about it.

Eden:
Oh, those estimations have really hit rock bottom.

S:
I owe you one. Thanks Eden.

Eden:
Sure.

S:
Night Eden. Thank you again.
