Sounds to me like you had an opportunity to be the hero.
Trad: Hey, listen, I can't wait to go to this fair. Spending time with you is like, the best thing I can imagine!
Priority: Oh Trad! You are so dreamy!
Trad: Yeah, I know. This guy wanted me to play at this other thing, and I was all like "no way, my lady comes first, GUY."
Priority: What? OMGz! That's a huge gig! So sweet... but this might be a bigger opportunity than you thought... are you sure you don't want to take it?
Trad: Baby, you so much more important to me than hundreds and hundreds of dollars. I mean, at least then I could hold my head up high and actually BUY you a gift...
Priority: Oh... I don't get a gift if you don't go? I have a headache anyways, plus I hate fairs now.
Trad: As long as the headache clears up when I get home and we can play hide the sausage, it's all good.
Priority: Hide the what?
*foomp!*
