Lovina froze when she heard him call her name. "Merda!" She stood up and paced around nervously. "Merda, Merda, MERDA! He was supposed to be in bed! Mio Dio, he's going to kill me…" Elizaveta's eyes widened as she tried to calm the girl down. "Are you not supposed to be here?" Lovina shook her head guiltily. Feliciano popped his head in with a worried expression. "Lovi, you're boss is here..and he doesn't look very happy…"

They heard him yell again. "Oh god, Lovino, please tell me you're here…" He didn't sound angry this time. He sounded…scared. Lovina gave Elizaveta a puzzled look. Elizaveta rested her hands on Lovina's shoulders and sighed. "You made him worry so much. I told you he cares."

Downstairs, Antonio was panicking. What if something had happened to him?! Roderich burst out of the music room and glared at Antonio. "What on earth are you doing here, and why are you screaming like a madman?" Antonio grabbed Roderich by the shirt. "Please, is Lovino here?"

Lovina was standing at the top of the staircase when she cleared her throat. Both men looked up and she waved nervously. "H-hey Antonio…so you decided to visit Roderich after all…" Antonio released the Austrian and narrowed his eyes as he walked up the staircase.

"Don't play cute with me Lovino. What did I say?! I told you to stay home, and you disobeyed me! What were you thinking, huh? That you could waltz around and do whatever you wanted?!" He had reached her now and his face was only inches from hers. Roderich stared at the two, shocked.

Lovino tried to avoid eye contact. "Yeah…well…you're supposed to be in bed!" Antonio grabbed her by the arm and started to pull her downstairs. "Unlike you, I'm not obligated to follow orders." His grip on her tightened. When they reached the bottom of the stairs, Lovina could see red splotches on her his arm. She tugged on his sleeve. "Antonio, wait you're bleeding again." He ignored her and approached Roderich. "I am so sorry amigo; I hoped we have not caused too much trouble." Roderich shook his head and smirked. "No, but you certainly livened up my day." Antonio looked back down at his servant.

"Say goodbye to your hermano Lovino." Lovina frowned. "I know I was wrong, but you are here now, so if there's something you need to get done, please go ahead. I can wait." Antonio's eyes softened as he bent down closer to her. "Lovino, I need to get you home as soon as possible. I just want you to be safe. I was so afraid…I thought something had happened to you. So please, let's leave before it gets dark." Lovina's eyes widened as he spoke to her. She nodded, and her brother slowly crept toward her, keeping an eye on the Spaniard. Lovina hugged her brother.

"Until next time, fratello." Feliciano held her tight. "Bye Lovi!" He wailed. Lovina rolled her eyes and pulled away. "Don't be such a fifone.." Feliciano smiled as he wiped his eyes. "Right… scusa. I'll see you soon, sì?" Lovina smiled at her brother and nodded. "Sì."

Antonio and Lovina walked out of the house silently. They headed over to the stable where he left his horse. Lovina couldn't tell what he was thinking, and that frustrated her to no end. She finally spoke up. "Antonio…I'm sorry…" Antonio sighed as he mounted the horse. "We'll talk about this more when we get home." He extended his arm out to help her on. She tried not to look at Antonio as he pulled her up and set her in front of him.

Lovina thanked god he was behind her so he couldn't see how red her face was. She was practically sitting on his lap as one of his arms wrapped around her waist and held her steady while they pushed on. She could feel his heart racing against her back. He was so warm, and Lovina flinched every time he bumped against her.

They were about halfway there when they saw a man wielding a sword sitting on a horse in the middle of the road. He was smirking and wearing a mask. Antonio brought the horse to a stop and narrowed his eyes. "Maldita sea" Antonio muttered as he pulled out his own sword.. The strange man laughed and charged at them. He swiped but missed as Antonio steered the horse around the attacker. Lovina felt him hop off.

"Lovino, go back to the house right now. I want you to keep going and don't look back" Antonio ordered without turning around. Lovina frowned as her eyes filled with concern. "But what about-"

"¡Vete!" he yelled back at her. Lovina sped off. She had only been riding a couple seconds before she stopped. She quickly rummaged through the saddle bag. "Come on bastardo, tell me you've got something good in here…" She pulled out a dagger and decided she'd make do. Lovina turned the horse around and headed back for Antonio.

He was holding up against the attacker, but was clearly at a disadvantage. He jumped an dodged a swing for the third time when he heard Lovina galloping back. "Lovino, get out of here right now!" The masked man sneered and headed toward Lovina. He swung at her. She barely made it past him without losing her head. But she managed to plant the dagger in his arm, making the man cry out in pain.

Lovina headed straight for Antonio. "Dai! Hurry!" she cried as he got back on the horse. He took the reins from her and headed home. Neither of them said a word all the way back.

Shit just got real. Wonder what will happen next…stay tuned kiddies…
