A Day in the Life of a Child and His Caretaker

by Stomei97

At a young age, Lovino went through something horrifying. He has no idea where his brothers are. He has no idea what to do, with his whole family dead or missing. That is, until he is put into the hands of his new caretaker, Antonio Fernandez Carriedo. Rated T for language. Warnings inside. A story with of parents and children.

1. Chapter 1: Enter the Child

A/N: Hello, guys! Welcome to A Day in the Life of a Child and His Caretaker.

I guess…warnings first, huh?

WARNINGS:

This is partially from the POV of a child. Keeping this in mind, he's a small child.

This will have minimal to NO pairings. Spamano will, there for, not be in this. I love these two, but I do not like shota. That's a bit much for me.

Cliffhangers will happen.

Bad narration as a child.

Maybe gore?

THIS IS PART OF A SERIES. THE OFFICIAL FIRST ONE IS A DAY IN THE LIFE ON ANTONIO AND THE CAT. IF YOU DO NOT READ THESE OTHER STORIES YOU WILL BE VERY CONFUSED. PROCEED ON WITH WARNING. I CANNOT EMPHASIS ENOUGH THAT OTHER PARTS OF THE PREVIOUS STORIES CAN AND WILL REAPPEAR. THIS INCLUDES INFORMATION ON DEMONS, MORGAN, DEMENSIONS AND THE HALL OF MIRRORS. REPEATING THIS AGAIN. GO. READ. PREVIOUS. STORIES.

With that out of the way, I also plan on this having Lovino aging throughout the story. This will alter mostly between Antonio and Lovino, (mostly) and the POV of Feliciano who is still in the dimension of a Teen Struggling to be Normal. And a few minor characters here and there.

Anyway, enjoy the story and the first chapter~!

Lovino's POV

"Mamma! Mamma!" I run around the back yard, looking for Mamma. Where is she?

"Mamma! You won't win!" A giggle bubbles up from Feli. Little Marcello is sitting on his blanket

Suddenly, I feel myself lifted up high from the ground. "Uwah!" Papa lifts me up and sets me up on his shoulders. "Feli! Look! I'm in the sky!"

Feli looks up at me, tears welling up in his eyes. "I wanna be in the sky like fratello too!"

Nonno steps up behind Feli and lifts him up onto his shoulders. I giggle. "Now Feli is in the sky too!"

Feli laughs happily. Mamma comes up between Papa and Nonno. "And here's Marcello." She grins.

Papa laughs. "There's the little guy! Guess what Papa went to get you kids?"

Feli gasps. "A puppy? Please tell me it's a puppy!"

Papa laughs. "No. Not yet. But I got the next best thing!"

"Gelato?" I ask him, gripping his head.

"Well, maybe we should go inside to see, right?" Nonno asks.

"Yeah!" Feli screams in glee.

OoOoOoOoO

Papa sets me down on the counter. "You wait right here, Lovi."

Nonno sets Feli right next to me. "We'll be back, bambinos. With your present, too!"

Feli turns to me. "I wonder what it could be? Maybe it is a puppy!"

I shake my head. "Nooooo, you dummy. It's gelato."

Mamma laughs a bit. "You two have to be a bit patient." There's a loud crash from the living room. Mamma looks towards the door, shocked. "Watch Marcello." She rushes out of the room to see what happened.

I glance at Feli. "Watch Marcello. I'll be back." I hop off of the counter and start walking to the door.

"Fratello! Wait!"

"Watch Marcello, Feli!" I turn and glare at my brother. "Mamma didn't say not to follow. She just said watch Marcello. And if you're here, you can watch him."

Feli's eyes suddenly widen. "Fratello! Get away from the door!"

I stick my tongue out at him. "Nothing bad is gonna happen, you dork."

Hands go around my waist and I'm lifted up into the air. Instead of being placed on Papa's shoulders, a man holds me just under his arm. I start to kick. "Let me go! Put me down!" I look up. "Feli! Take Marcello and run!" I scream at him in Italian.

"But fratello-"

I scream at him. "Just. RUN!"

Feli looks at me a split second before jumping off the counter and picking Marcello up off of the floor. Marcello holds his hand out to me. "F…fwatewo…"

"Hey! Wait!" The man screams to Feli.

I glare up at him before starting to squirm even more. "You leave them alone!"

The guy holds me with both hands now. "You. Knock it. The fuck. Off."

I spit in his face, something Papa told me to do only if I feel threatened. "Make me."

The man suddenly growls at me. "You little shit…" He sticks me under his arm again. "Whatever. Those two brats won't get very far."

The man leaves the kitchen and takes me outside. Before long, I find myself tossed into the back of a large vehicle. Not long afterwards the doors are slammed shut.

I hold my legs to my chest. "What..what's going on? Mamma…Papa…where are you guys?" I start sobbing. This is stupid. Only babies sob. And I am not a baby! I'm…I'm four! Mamma says that I'm a big boy now!

But I can't stop sobbing. I'm scared. I don't know what's happening.

At some point, I must have fallen asleep. The only way I know this is because the bad guy threw open the door and pulled me out after I had only been in there for a short time it seems. There's this big warehouse that the bad guy takes me into.

It's not long before I start to hear people talking in Italian. It doesn't take that long before I recognize Mamma and Papa and Nonno's voices. "M-Mamma! Papa! Nonno!" I scream.

It doesn't take too long before I hear gasps. "Lovi…Lovino?!" Mamma says. I try to look up but no avail.

Suddenly, I find myself tossed into a dog cage. "H…hey! You…You can't do that! That's ab…aga…against the law!"

The guy starts shaking the cage. "Shut up you brat!"

"Leave him alone! He's just a child!" I hear Papa shout from the other end of the room. I finally find him, and Mamma and Nonno. All three of them are in chairs with their hands behind them. Why are they not getting up?

A man walks into the room with a black blanket. He walks over towards the cage. His eyes are filled with almost pity. "I'm sorry, little boy. We have to ask your family some serious questions." He tosses the blanket over the cage. "You might want to cover your ears."

A voice floats through the room. "Sir?"

A sigh. "My boy isn't much older than him. I can't bring myself to let that kid see what is going to happen."

"But-"

"And, while this family is my rival, I will not torment them with the thought that one of their children will see this." A laugh, buy it wasn't happy. "I may be a crook, but I am honorable."

There is a noise, suddenly. Like a cage door opening. But it wasn't mine. Then, I hear Mamma say something in a language I have never heard before. She suddenly screams.

"Mamma!" I cry out.

I suddenly hear Papa talk. "L-Lovino! Don't listen! Cover your ears! Please!"

"Y…Yes, Papa…" I whisper. I crawl over to the corner farthest away from Mamma and Papa and Nonno and place my hands over my ears. I bring my knees to my chest. I can feel tears wanting to come out. Which is stupid, because only babies cry. But I can't help it.

Please, God. Save us. Save us from the horrible nightmare. Or send an angel. Just help. Please.

OoOoOoOoO

I don't know how long I sat like that, but then, I see light. I squint my eyes and look at who took off the blanket. The man that had taken me glares down at me. "You know, you little brat, my boss wanted me to let you go. He said that I shouldn't have taken such a small kid. But you know what I think? I think you should die. And he should too. He's gotten weak, since he had kids. Your parents are over there." He motions to the chairs before leaving.

I turn and look at where Mamma and Papa and Nonno are at. My eyes widen when as I crawl over towards the other side of the cage. "M..Mamma? Papa? Nonno? Wha…Why…why are you sleeping? Hey…hey open your eyes! Please!"

I hear laughing from the other end of the room. "They're dead, kid. And they screamed, and screamed and screamed. It was amazing to listen too."

"N..no. No! You're wrong! No!"

"Believe it, you brat." The door slams shut.

"Mamma! Open your eyes. He's wrong right? Open your eyes! Please!"

There is red water everywhere. And there is a gaping hole in Mamma's stomach. And…and Nonno is missing his arm and I can see straight through his chest because if the hole there. Papa has no legs…and a red line on his neck. I start screaming. And screaming. And screaming.

Wake up. Please. I'll behave. Wake up. Wake up. Wake up. Wake up. Wake up. Wake up wakeupwakeupwakeupwakeupwakeupwakeupWAKEUPWAKEUPWAKEUPWAKEUPPLEASEI'LLBEAGOODBOYPLEASEJUSTOPENYOUREYES.

OoOoOoOoO

The POV of a 'Random' Bystander…

After Feliciano, who I managed to find on the side of the road with his little brother, told me that his twin brother was taken by a bad man, I somehow managed to find a warehouse. Being a demon does have its pros, I guess. There had obviously been a lot of cars here; but they all have long since left.

I run inside, fearing that the worst had happened for the little boy. I open the door and see blood everywhere. Being a demon, I should be used to it. But…where was Lovino?

That's when I hear it; the broken sobs of a little boy. I find him cowering in a cage, shaking and rocking back and forth. His eyes are screwed shut and his hands are coving his ears. He's muttering something under his breath. I can barely catch it. He keeps chanting wake up, as though it will actually do some good in bringing back the dead.

I open the cage door and he immediately turns towards me. He sees me and his eyes widen, before he runs up to me, crying. "God sent you too late."

I scrunch my eyebrows in confusion. "How do you mean?"

"You're an angel right? I prayed to God like Mamma and Papa always told me to do when I'm scared. I prayed for an angel. And you came. But you didn't come fast enough to save Mamma and Papa and Nonno…" He throws his arms around me. "I don't kn…know who I can go to! I don't know where home is!"

I rub his back. "We'll find you a home. I promise."
