~Descendants of Love and Hate ~ Chapter 7: To be Free or To be Not Free~ Normal POV~

"1 week, 3 days, 10 hours, 13 minutes and 30 seconds until the day of the affair sir." The servant said as the young boy asked for his service.

"Why are you always so exact Mr. Williams? I reasonably don't want to be reminded of the matter. I'm worrying a sufficient amount already." Double D was franticly running back and forth the room wondering what the party was going to be like. Was the blue haired demon going to make the whole night a living nightmare or was his friends going to be men, stand up for themselves, and hang around him?

…Wow… He shouldn't be talking.

"It's one of the reasons that I'm still part of this family for 50 years." The old man looked at the boy and grabbed him by the shoulders. "You need to relax sir. There is nothing to be concerned about." He fixed the boy's clothes so he could be prepared for school.

"I hope you're right, Mr. Williams." The Ed boy said with a sigh. Mr. Williams frowned.

"There is nothing to be afraid of," He fixed the boy's collar. "Maybe you'll get to see that girl again." The old man grinned while teasing the young master.

Eddward felt a little blood rushing to his cheeks. He turned around and tried to fix his tie. Why must everyone make him so uncomfortable? The old man immediately smirked; he thought it was adorable in a way.

"W-what makes you think t-that I w-was with a female?" He stuttered, oh, he hoped the servant didn't notice.

"The way you are presenting yourself says it all." The servant said as he looked around the room to see if anything was out of place. The sockhead sighed once more; he should learn how to keep a straight face like his father. No one ever knew what he was thinking.

"So who's the lucky gal? She certainly wasn't Ms. Kanker that's for sure, or you would have been crying all the way home. Anyway, did she take a liking to you?"

"Um, she was a bit hostile towards me, which was odd because I was polite as can be." Then he remembered at the beginning of the encounter. "Well, for the most part nonetheless." Eddward looked out the window, it was cloudy, yet the sun was demanding to break through the clouds.

"Hostile?" Mr. Williams said as he was all ears. "Who would've guessed?" He smiled to himself. "So what's her name?"

"Oh," He was silent for a moment. "Her name is B-"

"Master, breakfast is ready!" The young man soon rushed downstairs. "Bye, Mr. Williams!"

"Bye!" The old man bellowed. "Darn it, I was so close to finding out good information." He muttered to himself. "Well, there's always tomorrow." He chuckled.

"Good morning, everyone!" Double D articulated as he ran into the kitchen happily.

"Good morning!" The servants chimed together in harmony. His mother drank her morning coffee and glanced at her son with a questioning stare. She raised an eyebrow, and looked at him.

"And why, pray tell, are you so happy, Edward?" She glared at him. "I hope it's not because of what you did to past curfew the previous night!"

He looked at his mother when he stopped. "Of course not, mother." He grinned afterward. He ran towards his mother and gave her a big hug. "It's because I'm aware that you LOVE me." Double D put her in a loving death grip. The older woman started to blush madly. "W-what in the world?" She said as she started to mutter. "E-e-eddward!" She tried to shriek, but he was still in a happy-go-lucky mood.

The servants watched as they started to chuckle a bit. "How embarrassing for the Madame," The maids giggled.

"E-E-EDDWARD!" She screamed. The boy stopped for a second. "Yes, mother," He replied. "Why is your face so red?"

The servants nearly died of laugher. They couldn't help themselves.

"It's nothing." Oh, how she wanted to run away and hide. "Just… Go to school to bother your teachers…" She muttered softly towards the end. "Okay." He grabbed his book bag and looked into the mirror, he looked fine.

"Wait," She stated as she continued. "Aren't you going to eat your breakfast?"

"Indeed, mother." He dropped his stuff on the couch of the living room. "I have some time to spear." As he sat down, he received a plate of French toast, sunny side up eggs and sausages from the chef.

"Thanks." He beamed as he let his fork stab his eggs and direct it to his mouth. His mother watched closely, she hadn't seen him so content before. It was refreshing, but why he was so happy, she couldn't help but wonder.

"Eddward," She said. The boy nodded at her for her to carry on. "Why were you not home last night?" She stared right at him. Double D saw the sadness and concern clouding her eyes. "Mom, I-"

The older woman quickly looked towards the couch. "What have I told you about putting your stuff on the couch? Haven't I raised you better?"

"Mother," He bowed his head in defeat. When was she going to make up her mind? "I was in the woods with a girl-"

"Oh, come on. Do you see me as a fool? What were you really doing?" She got a bagel and dipped it into her coffee, it tasted like bliss. Once, her son said nothing, she knew it was true.

"Oh my god, Eddward… Please don't tell me that you… you know not to do the do in such an inapt place. I knew that your hormones would run wild one day, but at least you could've done it in a hotel or something." Double D should there in shock; he didn't know what to say. "I knew that Marie was a little wild for you, she must have made you nuts." She continued eating her bagel. "Well, I'll forgive you as long as you had protection."

He couldn't take it no more. His face was getting hotter the more she talked about it.

"WHAT!?" He yelled as he leapt out of his seat. He was beet red. "What type of boy do you think I am?!"

"Mother, it was not like that…" He said in a stern tone. "It was like I said, I was talking to a girl in the woods and then time flew by." He took a bite of his toast after it was drizzled in maple syrup. Honestly, his mother has a wild imagination, or maybe she was tipsy. She did always drink when she was worried.

"Whatever you say." She drank more of her coffee and looked at her phone for any messages. Double D chuckled at her sudden boredom, she was something else. He soon finished his food and kissed his mother repeatedly goodbye. She was still blushing. "Don't worry mom, I don't have a sex life, so stop worrying about being a grandmother."

She soon yelled turning red. "Who said I wanted to be one?!" The servants were smiling in the background with glee. He soon left for the door.

"Do you need a cold, wet towel to control the blood rushing to your face, Madame?" A maid chuckled.

"Shut up." She said after she ran after her son before he left in his car for school. "Don't forget, your father will be home before and during the affair as well, so be good."

He nodded in notification and entered his car. As he took it to school, he wondered if he was actually going to see her again. I doubt it though; it seems to be that she was in the school the whole time, just like I was there. But I've never seen her before… There isn't a likely chance to encounter her again.

~Leaving the Utonium Estate~

"I still don't get it." Bubbles said as she and her sisters began to be driven to school. "What don't you get?" Blossom asked.

"I just don't get how the professor let you off so easily." She started pout. "If I did something like that, he would have my head." Bubbles sighed.

"Now, that you mention it, it is a little odd." The pink leader stated. "What did you do last night anyway? Bubbles and I would like to know." She narrowed her eyes in suspicion at Buttercup.

Buttercup turned to the redhead and questioned her. "What?" She said as she tried to finish drinking her orange juice. "Didn't he tell you what happened this morning?" The blue powerpuff nodded soon after. "Yes. But all he said was that it was a minor complication. Whatever that means…"

"I was in the woods, avoiding Mitch. End of story." Buttercup drank the last sip of her juice and put it in the garbage. She didn't want to tell them more; they only needed to know the reason why.

Blossom opened her book bag and took out a book. "Yeah, but that's the uncanny thing about it." She said as she began reading a page in her Physics textbook. "If it was only because of Mitch, you would've been out of there the moment he left." Buttercup flinched; sometimes Blossom was too smart for her own good.

"So tell us Buttercup," Blossom's pink eyes moved towards her. "Yeah, tell us." Bubbles cooed after. "What was the real reason you stayed there?" They asked simultaneously.

Buttercup said nothing; in fact she didn't know what to say. "Was it a boy?" Bubbles asked; she was teasing her.

A hint of blush crept on her cheek as she denied the truth. "That's none of your business." Then when the car stopped; she walked into the school, leaving her sisters speechless in the car.

"Did you see that?" Bubbles asked Blossom.

"Yes," The pink powerpuff stated. "And I think I saw too much." They walked towards the front of the school.

Sorry for the long wait! How did you like it?
