Sam laughed as the waitress brought her a drink. "Thanks!" Sam smiled.
"Oh, come on, you said it yourself, you would get rid of him if you could!" Danny said as he took a sip of his own drink.
"Yeah, but I would never tell him to leave, wasn't Ed mad?"
"No, more like relieved, he said something along the lines of, 'At least I won't have any more headaches!' and he's right, that pain in the ass is finally gone!" Danny smirked.
"I guess you're right, cheers to that!" Sam said raising her glass.
Danny smiled as they clinked their glasses together. The waitress returned with their food.
"So, what has Ed got you doing?"
"You know the usual..." Danny replied as he cut into his steak.
"Right, playing superman!" Sam said as she nibbled on her pasta.
"Ha ha, very funny!" Danny laughed.
Sam grinned as the waitress brought her a piece of paper.
"Sam, this is for you."
"Thanks Lisa!" Sam smiled as she opened the note.
"Who's it from?" Danny asked as Sam frowned at the letter.
"Oh, uh... no one. Don't worry about it!" Sam said and with that she placed the note in her pocket and resumed nibbling on her pasta.
"Thanks for lunch Danny!" Sam said.
"It was my pleasure!" Danny replied with a smile.
"So, what does my favourite lunch buddy have planned for later today?" Danny asked expectantly.
"I'm not really doing anything, well, other than looking after the high rollers in from Denver. So, we're already lunch buddies, huh?"
"Well..." he grinned, "There are high rollers here from Denver?" he asked suddenly.
"Shows how much you know!" Sam said with a smile.
"So, are you free for later on?"
"Maybe, why?" Sam inquired.
"Well, there's that new club by the Plaza and... I mean I was wondering if you wanna come check it out?" Danny finished.
"Oh yeah, I heard about that club, I'll ask Nessa and Mike if they're free, you know, I mean I'm sure that they would love to come too!"
"Uh yeah, I'm...sure Nessa and Mike would... uh... love to come!" Danny said trying to sound enthusiastic.
Sam simply smiled, "Great, so I'll see you later tonight!"
"Yeah, yeah sure!" Danny replied as Sam walked off to go and meet her high rollers. "Great!" he sighed.
"Hey Mike!" Danny called as he walked towards the front door.
"Hey buddy! What's up?"
"Huh? Yeah... not much! Um, did Sam talk to you about later tonight?"
"Oh yeah, she mentioned something about the new club by the Plaza, why?"
"Well, were you thinking of coming?"
"Yeah, got nothing else to do, besides I heard that that club was super hot! It'll be fun!"
"Yeah... look..."
"Hey, I got to go clear the drive way, Mary's organizing a beach bash and she's expecting me to make sure the guests get here on time and without any hiccups along the way!"
"Wait, do you know if Sam talked to Nessa?"
"No, but you can ask Nessa yourself, I saw her heading into the casino a few minutes ago!" Mike said as he headed towards the awaiting limos.
"Alright, thanks! I'll see you later!" Danny called as he headed back into the casino.
