"How was the flight?" Lando asked Tala as she got into the backseat of the car. He also took the chance to shamelessly check out her cute travel outfit while she climbed in. In which she swatted the air in front of his eyes to stop him from looking at her like that.
She still couldn't believe she was in Italy right now. She also couldn't believe Lando had kept his word about paying for everything. She really expected him to ghost her two weeks ago but he proved her wrong in this instance. Maybe being a groupie was not so bad, she thought.
"Why did you put me in first class?" She buckled her seatbelt, sinking into the leather immediately. The car was filled with the smell of him. He smelled so fresh and manly.
"You cannot be complaining about something like that," He laughed as he signaled to his driver to pull out from the terminal and onto the main road.
"I'm not! I was just shocked," She admitted. She really was. When she got to her seat on the plane she couldn't help but think she wasn't supposed to be there but nonetheless she sat down anyway. And because the experience was new to her, she had sneakily taken pictures to send to Mika. She had almost started laughing in her seat when she saw the water was given in fancy cups. It was unbelievable to her that rich people get this luxury often.
"Oh, why would I not?" He tells her, taking short glances between her and his window. "You think I'm that shallow?"
She pressed her lips together, "Mmm, not anymore."
"Not anymore?!" He almost dropped his phone in his hand.
"I joke Lando," She giggled. "You are very generous and handsome." Her voice laced with sarcasm.
"Handsome...call me that more often." He liked how snarky the adjective came out from her mouth. She had a sharp tongue more recently when she talked to him, even in text, it brought a pleasant feeling in his chest every time. Even though the words that came from her were supposed to be harsh, he liked it because for Lando it meant she was taking a liking to him. You know the old-school way of thinking, if a girl or boy likes you they will be mean to you.
She scrunched up her nose at him, Lando immediately found that adorable, "Mmmm, you have a cool name, I'd rather continue calling you that."
"You think my name is cool?" He could feel his ego rising up his throat.
"Only because it reminds me of Star Wars." Tala was a bit of nerd when it came to sci-fi movies.
