Promise Me (Photo Story)

Walter drops by Deirdre’s place unannounced. He’s upset because he's called numerous times, but all of his calls have gone unanswered.

Walter! This is a surprise. (Deirdre)

Where have you been all day? Why didn’t you answer your phone? (Walter)

I went to help Robyn at the club, and I didn’t have my phone with me. I left it at home by mistake. (Deirdre)

What, there’s no phone at the club? Or were you too busy with your friends to check in? (Walter)

Wait a minute… I admit that I forgot to call. And I’m really sorry, but I don’t like how you’re treating me like some teenager who has to call home. (Deirdre)

You're right. I apologize for my tone. It’s just that I was worried sick about you. (Walter)

Oh, baby I didn’t realize I made you worry. I’m so sorry. It won’t happen again. (Deirdre)

Promise me. (Walter)

Hmm? (Deirdre)

Promise me that it won’t ever happen again. (Walter)

Alright, I promise. (Deirdre)

So, who else was at the club? (Walter)

What do you mean? (Deirdre)

I mean who, besides you and Robyn was there? (Walter)

Just a few of the employees prepping for an event. (Deirdre)

Males? Females? Names? (Walter)

The only guys were the bartender and the DJ. There were a couple of waitresses, too but nobody I remember by name. (Deirdre)

Walter goes to retrieve the bag he left in the car. Meanwhile, Deirdre realizes that he's feeling some kind of way...probably jealous and thinks it’s kind of cute.

 Well, now that I know you’re okay I have a surprise for you. (Walter)

Deirdre opens it and finds sexy lingerie. She smirks and raises an eyebrow.

Is this gift for me or for you? (Deirdre)

Both. Keep digging, there’s more. (Walter)

She takes out the negligee and uncovers a box from Hari’s Jewels. She opens it and gasps when she removes the stunning diamond necklace inside.

Walter, it’s beyond beautiful. I’m speechless. (Deirdre)

It’s just some silk and a trinket. I can and will give you so much more as long as you promise me that you will be mine…all mine. Can you promise me that? (Walter)

Deirdre laughs in her mind because only a man like Walter O’Dair could drop this kind of dough on a diamond necklace and call it a trinket.

Aren’t you going to try it on? (Walter)

Which one? (Deirdre)

Both. (Walter)

While Deirdre goes in the back to change, Walter sneaks a peek at her cell phone. 


She returns wearing both gifts, and Walter takes in the sight of her.

So...? (Deirdre)

 You’re right, the necklace is beautiful, but it’s nowhere near as beautiful as you are. The negligee is sexy, too but no amount of silk or lace could be as sexy as you......You can take it off now. (Walter)

Which one? (Deirdre)

Not the necklace. (Walter)
