"You forgot to tell me your new girlfriend was staying over! If I knew I would have come by another day." Lando hung his coat on the rack and slipped his shoes off. "This wasn't planned, and she isn't my girlfriend!" Lando said in hushed voice. "Yet," he could hear Flo mumble. He shook the comment off, even if he knew Mila for a short amount of time, he could picture them being in a relationship. " Stop it okay, we are going on a date yes, but we are nowhere near a relationship yet so please, just calm down alright?" Flo nodded and watched her brother as he put his stuff away.
"She isn't a big fan of talking is she?" Flo asked after a while. Lando shook his head, "Mila was involved in a big accident a couple of years ago. It made her go mute, so she can't talk, even she wanted to." Flo's mouth fell agape, "Really? That is so cool!" She stated, which made Lando roll his eyes. "It's not cool Flo, it was traumatic for her. Please don't embarrass me." Flo put her hands up in defence, "I will be on my best behaviour, don't worry."
The siblings walked into the kitchen and were met with a delicious smell. Mila started cooking and it smelled great. Her heart started beating very loudly when she heard multiple voices in the hallway. She wasn't ready for meeting Lando's family, they just started dating. She never had a boyfriend while being mute so this situation made her anxious.
"Well, I'm glad you're here. Now I know I will get a decent meal in my stomach. I was afraid I had to cook tonight!" They laughed at Flo's comment as Mila started to cut some onions. "I'm going to change into some sweats real quick, I will be right back" Mila and Flo nodded as Lando walked up to his room. Silence filled the kitchen as Flo set the table and Mila was cooking.
"It smells great Mila, what are you making?" Mila turned around to look at Flo, she grabbed her white board. "I'm making risotto with chicken, one of my favorite meals." Flo nodded, "I've never had risotto before but it looks delicious. You know, it has been a while since I have seen my brother smile so bright." Mila blushed "I have done nothing special, if anyone has done something special it's Lando. He has been really taking care of me." Flo grabbed a knive and started on the chicken.
"So Lando told me that you used to speak" Flo spoke, Mila stirred the rice, becoming a bit nervous about the topic. Flo noticed how Mila became more closed off. "I'm sorry if I'm crossing a line, if you don't want to talk about it that's fine, forget I said anything." Mila shook her head, indicating she didn't mind talking about it. "I was in a car accident with my parents. They were both killed on impact. It left me with PTSD, which resulted in me being mute." Flo put down the knife and sat down on the counter. "That must have been really hard for you. Your a strong woman Mila, for going on with your life." Mila smiled at Flo, a blush covering her cheeks.
Footsteps made the two girls turn around. "It smells amazing in here," Lando said as he stepped into the kitchen. "Dinner is ready so sit down and I will bring the food into the dining room." Flo carried their drinks while Mila struggled with the heavy pan. Mila and Lando sat across from each other while Flo sat next to Mila.
Flo observed Mila and her brother, the two were exchanging looks like they were having a conversation with just their eyes. Flo was intrigued, her brother was blushing as Mila put food on everyone's plate. "So where is Sacha?" Flo asked as she put a bite of the risotto in her mouth. Lando wiped his mouth and moaned, "wow Mils, this is really good! Sacha is staying over at his girlfriends house, he will be back tomorrow morning." Flo nodded and shoved bite after bite into her mouth. "You have to come by at our house and make this dish Mila! I'm sure everyone will love it." Mila felt het cheeks redden, she got shy thinking about meeting the rest of Lando's family.
After dinner, the three sat down in the backyard eating some ice cream. It was a lovely night and the weather was still warm. Flo stood up and gathered the dishes, Mila put her hand on Flo's arm and grabbed the bowls from her. She motioned towards the char Flo was previously sitting on, telling her to sit down. Flo warmly smiled and sat back down while Mila put the bowls in the dishwasher.
Lando and Flo could see Mila through the window while she was putting the clean dishes away. " I like her, she's a keeper. You better not screw this up Lan." Lando chuckled, " I will try my best. I really want to give this a shot." Flo stood up and grabbed her bag. "I think I'm going to head out. This was lovely Lan." Lando stretched his arms out above his head and stood up, walking his sister towards the door.
Mila came out of the kitchen as Flo put on her jacket. Flo gave Lando a hug, and Mila wanted to shake Flo's hand but she had other plans. Flo pulled Mila in for a bear hug, "I don't know what you see in my brother, but I hope you stick around," Flo whispered into Mila's ear. Mila laughed and gave Flo a kiss on her cheek.
Lando's heart grew as he saw his sister and the girl he fancied, get along so well. The two girl released each other and Flo walked towards her car. Mila waved as she drove off and Lando closed the door behind them. "How about a movie?" Lando suggested and Mila nodded. They settled on the couch, a significant space between them. Lando was hesitant to sit closer to Mila, not wanting to make her feel uncomfortable or make her feel rushed.
Halfway through the movie Mila could feel herself shiver, "Are you cold?" Lando asked her. Mila just shrugged, but Lando took this as an opportunity to sit closer to Mila. Lando scooted closer and wrapped his arm around Mila, who leaned her head on his shoulder. Lando wasn't the really paying attention to the movie anymore, instead he was distracted by Mila's breathing. He could hear her breathing become more heavy and realised she had fallen asleep. Lando couldn't help himself but take a deep breath, he could smell her perfume, flowery and sweet, it suited her.
When the movie ended, Lando felt his arm become numb. He carefully scoopted Mila up and carried her towards his room. Mila stirred when Lando tried to tuck her in, "Mhh.." Lando's heart raced as Mila opened her eyes. "Hey sleepy head, go back to sleep." When Lando tried to walk out of the room, Mila grabbed his hand. "Do you have some sweats and a shirt? I don't feel like sleeping in my clothes." Lando nodded and rumaged through his closet. He threw some clothes to Mila and left the room so she could change.
Lando had grabbed a blanket and made himself comfortable on the couch. He took of his shirt and laid it down on a chair, laying down after. Lando stared at the ceiling, he couldn't help but think about Mila who was sleeping in his bed right now. He secretly wanted to climb into bed with her and cuddle, but he didn't want to rush her into anything.
Lando just couldnt find a comfortable position to sleep in. He was tossing and turning, and when he looked at the time it on his phone, he found out it was already three in the morning. Lando put his phone down on the coffee table and closed his eyes. He pulled the blanket up to his chin and closed his eyes, forcing himself to try and catch some sleep.
Lando got startled when he heard a scream coming from his room. He rushed to his bedroom and saw Mila sitting up, her chest was heaving and he could see the sweat forming on her forehead. "Hey, you're alright. What happened?" Lando sat down next to Mila on the bed. Mila grabbed the whiteboard from the nightstand, her hand was shaking as she tried to write. "I had a nightmare. I was reliving the accident with my parents, but this time it was you with me in the car." Lando grabbed Mila's hand, "It's alright, we are both fine, you are not getting rid of me that easily," Lando joked which made Mila let out a small smile.
"Try to get some sleep alright?" Mila nodded and laid back down. Something inside of Mila sparked confidence and she grabbed Lando's hand as he was walking out of his bedroom. Lando turned around with a questioning look on his face. "Can you stay?" Lando's heart pounded but he nodded his head anyway. Of course he wanted to sleep next to Mila. Mila scooted over and made room so Lando could lay down beside her. Lando laid down under the covers and Mila laid her head on his chest. Lando wrapped his arm around Mila as she laid one arm over Lando's stomach. "Goodnight Mils," Lando said as he could feel sleep finally taking over.
