As soon as the food and drinks were ordered, the six indulged in a conversation that introduced Florentine but mostly Bradley and it was nice to see him being taken back by the fact that Lando and George knew of his band. Brad would argue that him and his band had their prime a long time ago, but Lando was the one to admit that he used to listen to them when he was in school and that Can We Dance was still one of his favorite songs.
Knowing Bradley, the surprised look on his face showed how much he needed to hear those words and it warmed the French girl's heart. Despite enjoying a lot of things and even going as far as to fangirl about them sometimes, Bradley had a hard time talking himself into believing he was a well-known artist. He barely gives himself enough credit, so the evening was already a huge success in Florentine's book.
Carlos threw a few things into the conversation here and there, laughing along and asking the singer some questions of his own, but only when Carmen brought up the topic of the bakery, did he seem really interested in the conversation.
"I'm sure it will be incredibly popular as soon as you open back up", George claimed as he took a sip of his wine, his other arm wrapped around Carmen, who nodded along enthusiastically. Lando agreed, joking about how he will most definitely be the first customer.
Florentine smiled down at her lap at the praise, squeezing her hands together before she raised her head again, catching the eye of Carlos.
"I know everything about her plans, to the last detail. And since I know this one in and out, it will be bloody brilliant", Bradley praised the girl besides him who scoffed jokingly, waving him off.
"I'm surrounded by too many Brits", she said, mocking the boy for his excessive use of british slang and it didn't even take a second for both Lando and Brad to say the thing she was totally expecting, at the exact same time.
"You live in England!", the two immediately whipped their heads around to stare at each other with widened eyes as Lando started to choke up, Bradley followed and soon enough the whole table was laughing.
"See, that's what I mean. Oh, what have I done by introducing these two?", Florentine leant back in her chair, dramatically fanning herself as Carmen giggled. Brad playfully shoved the girl, not expecting her to almost fall off of her chair, luckily Carlos was seated close enough so that she fell back on him and simply rearranged her sitting position after muttering out a small apology.
"No worries", he spoke with an adoring grin on his face, one that neither Brad nor Carmen could ignore.
"Are you two sure you're not siblings?", he questioned as his eyes jumped from the girl to the singer and back. Bradley winced at the innocent question, glancing back at Florentine before he gifted Lando a small smile.
"As close as and while my mum would most likely love it, I'd not like this woodhead as my sister, thank you", Florentine let out a gasp as Lando burst out laughing in a high-pitched voice, George chuckling a long at the expression on the girl's face.
