Yay, new chapter. That last one took me forever to figure out. I was like WHERE DO START LASNOWUVFOWURVFOWUV. But then realized Lovi would just bounce back like the badass she is and not give a shit. My spirit animal. Anyways, review, favorite, follow, blah blah blah. Enjoy
Antonio shifted uncomfortably as Roma Vargas glared at him. "I'm going to be honest, I don't like you" the older Italian said coldly. Antonio sighed and leaned back in his chair. "The feeling is mutual" he muttered in response. Roma leaned forward with his fore arms on the table between them.
"Let's get one thing straight, I'm only putting up with you for her" he hissed. Antonio narrowed his eyes and crossed his arms. "As am I."
Roma rubbed his chin and stared at the Spaniard. "How do I know you're not taking advantage of her? She's young, Carriedo. She doesn't know what she's doing." Antonio glanced over at Lovina, who was watching nervously. He gave her a small reassuring smile as she toyed with a glass on the bar in front of her.
"She knows exactly what she's doing" Antonio responded before turning back to Roma. "You don't give her enough credit. She's a smart young woman, not some airheaded girl. I wouldn't be with her if she was." Roma sighed and stared at the table.
"I want what's best for my Lovi. I know I haven't been there for her recently, but I still love her all the same. And I don't know if you're serious or not. I don't want her giving everything she has to a man who doesn't want to give everything back."
Antonio looked Roma dead in the eye. "Everything I do, I do for her. I want her for the rest of my life." He chuckled and ran his hand through his hair. "I even proposed" he added nervously.
"You did what?!" Roma clenched his fist angrily. Antonio sighed and looked away. "Calm down, she said no." Roma smirked and laughed at Antonio.
"That's my Lovi, the little heartbreaker." Antonio rolled his eyes and looked back at Lovina, who now had a glass of wine sitting in front of her.
"Lovi, one glass, ok?" he called to her. Lovina looked over and waved him off. "Don't tell me what to do, stronzo" she responded. Antonio chuckled and shook his head as he faced the still smirking Roma.
"I assume you've learned just how fiery my little Lovi is?" Roma asked. Antonio gave him a genuine smile and chuckled. "I wouldn't want her any other way" he responded before rising. Roma stood as well and sighed.
"I guess you could be worse, Carriedo" Roma mumbled. Antonio rolled his eyes. "I guess that's a compliment…" he responded as he started to walk over to Lovina. He was caught by Roma's hand grabbing onto his shoulder.
"Let's be clear; if you hurt my little girl, I'll cut off your cazzo with a spoon and feed it to you over a bed of pasta, got it?" Antonio's eyes widened as he nodded. Well, now he knew where Lovina got her colorful threats from. Roma gave him an overly warm smile before shoving him forward a bit. Antonio shuddered as he approached Lovina.
"You ready to say goodbye?" Lovina rolled her eyes and pointed to her half empty glass of wine. "Can I finish my drink, bastardo?" Antonio chuckled before grabbing the drink and downing the rest of it.
"Hey!-" she cried angrily as she hit his arm. Antonio chuckled and he cut her off with a kiss. Roma rolled his eyes and groaned while he watched the pair. "Lovi, I know you're adorable when you drink, but I'd rather get you drunk at home, si?" Roma glared at the back of Antonio's head as the Spaniard wrapped an arm around Lovina's waist.
They turned and faced Roma. "Ciao, bastardo" Lovina said softly. Roma smiled and he pulled her into a hug. "Ti amo my little Lovi."
"Yeah, yeah, whatever" she sighed as he slowly released her. As soon as she turned away, he glared at Antonio and made a chopping, then eating gesture to him. Antonio waved nervously before he quickly left with Lovina.
"What did he say?" she asked quietly. He sighed and grasped her hand. "He hates me. But it's to be expected. What I wanna know is what you said that made him act so surprised." Lovina thought for a moment then laughed.
"I told him about Feliciano and Gilbert's younger brother, Ludwig." Antonio gave her a quizzical stare as she smirked. "They're very close" she added. Antonio cocked an eyebrow.
"Very close?" he asked. Lovina nodded and chuckled. "Very close" she repeated. Antonio smiled and squeezed her hand.
"Well, good for Feli."

Lovina sighed as she walked home. It had been almost a month since her grandfather reappeared and he insisted on spending as much time with her and Feliciano as possible. Today, he showed them some of their old things he had found. It was mostly baby clothes and other things that were much too small for them now. Feliciano seemed really happy to be reconnecting with their nonno, so she went along with it.
She stared at the rattle in her hand. The bastard insisted they take something with them, so she just grabbed one of the smallest things she could find. Even Lovina had to admit it was kind of cute, and it did bring back a few good memories.
"Antonio?" she called as she walked through the door. She heard him say something from his study and slowly walked in. "I'll be with you in just a moment" he said as he continued to scribble something down. Lovina plopped down on the couch in the room and waited. She toyed with her old rattle, admiring the faded pastel colors and tiny bow wrapped around the handle.
"L-Lovina, why do you have a juguete del bebé?"
Lovina's head snapped up when she heard the uncertainty in his voice "I-It's just a toy from when I was young! C-calm down, geez!" Antonio nodded and sat next to her. He gave her a soft kiss and pulled her onto his lap. Lovina gently wrapped her legs around his waist and let her fingers weave into his hair. Antonio stared at her silently for a moment.
"Lovi, do you ever want to have a baby?"
His question almost sent her falling to the floor."Why are you asking me something like that?!" she squeaked. He chuckled and stroked the sides of her waist. "I just want to know mi amor."
Lovina looked away while her face turned red. "I-I, well…s-someday…I guess…" Lovina mentally kicked herself for her stupidity. She was basically saying, 'Hey! I want to bear your children!' her face felt hot as she tried to hide her embarrassment. How could she just assume-
"How many should we have Lovi?" Antonio chuckled. Lovina's eyes widened as she stared at him.
"W-We?"she replied softly. Antonio became flustered as he cleared his throat. "I um, lo siento Lovi. You don't…I don't…I know we're not-"
Lovina pressed her lips to his. He smiled as he knew he'd said something right. Antonio quickly pinned her under him and smirked. "So Lovi, shall we 'make a baby'?"
Lovina rolled her eyes and smacked the back of his head. "Shut up idiota" she said before letting him kiss her again.
Lovi would be the most badass mom ever. "Kid wouldn't get away with shit!" *giggles like an idiot as she quotes Baby Mama* well, until next time kiddies….
