Title: Look
Pairing/Characters: Romano and Lovina, mentions of Antonio, Antonia, and OT4 childrens
Summary: Lovina has a lot of fucking family get togethers.


Romano hates it when it's his turn to go to one of Lovina's stupid family events. She has more than Antonio, Antonia, and him combined and she always complains about them more than even Romano can, so he has no idea why she always insists they go. He does have an idea, actually, an idea that it probably has something to do with the same reasons Romano always makes sure Nonno, Veneziano, and his mamma get at least one holiday a year with him, but at least he gets presents out of that. Lovina just gets annoying cousins, drunken, gossip-whore aunts, and stupid gran— Romano takes that back, Lovina's grandmother is the best part of her family get-togethers.

He sips at a glass of wine, free wine because all of Lovina's family events have an open bar. Romano would say it was because most of them were insane drunks, but he isn't going to complain (too much) while he's getting free food and drinks. His phone buzzes and he glances at it to see it's yet another text from Antonia— apparently Celio said a whole sentence, with real words! together! back to back! and Alejandro sold all the pastries at the café and wasn't Romano so proud?!

He is so proud, because he knew if he'd left the café to Antonio and Antonia for the weekend it would have gone to shit, so he's glad to know he definitely made the right decision by putting Alejandro in charge.

He is also so bored. Lovina ran off somewhere with her sister an hour ago and Romano hasn't been able to find her ever since. If he couldn't see her from the comfort of his chair, she was obviously lost somewhere he'd have no hopes of finding her at and she'd just have to find him lat— there she is. Romano looks up just in time to see Lovina walking toward him, her eyebrow raised and her lips turned up slightly to form a look that tells Romano they are definitely getting the hell out of here soon.

He gives her back a look that says he is going to finish his fucking wine first, you dragged me here you can wait until I'm damn good and ready to leave.

Lovina apparently thinks it means she can finish off the last of his glass and then drag him by his tie (his expensive silk tie that does not need to be manhandled by girlfriends with claws for nails) out of the hall her familyreunionweddingwhatever is being held in and upstairs to their (free, because Lovina's grandmother loves them) hotel room. Romano is okay with her misreading his look just this once.
