Buttercup's POV

I did wonder what was up with Brianna, she was pretty quiet...and had this strange look on her face. I couldn't tell her that I met that same guy from before...My face felt hot just thinking about him...he had nice eyes...they were almost like mine, maybe a little darker...People say that I have the eyes of emeralds, what ever the hell that means...It's normally my fists they need to worry about.

He didn't seem half bad, but I'll never tell anyone that...especially Blossom or Bubbles who always tried to drag me to dances. I sighed again...my face feeling hotter when I thought how no matter how fast I walked he just wouldn't let me go...I didn't mind that...in fact...I kind of enjoyed it...I never had a man going after me just to know my name...and not put his hands on me...Lord Daniel...just the thought of that jack ass...was so lucky he came along because I was ready to pound him...even though that would be exactly what he wanted...Oh hell who was I kidding...I was in trouble...but that guy...he saved me.

I shook my head, I don't have time for this, the guy did me a favor but that's it...I have a family to take kind of, and I have to cook...I hate cooking...Hate...Hate...Hate it. I don't know how Belle can enjoy cooking but she's good at it. That's when I realized I barely went shopping...I guess well have to eat vegetables stew tonight (if I didn't burn it) and Oranges for dessert.

I park the carriage in front of Bubbles' place, the Morbucks' estate, it was huge...at least 20 windows...made of stone..ivy growing all over the walls as if holding it together...I was a cute place...too bad about the owners..well except Bubbles...I don't know how in the hell she was related to them, she didn't even have those star shaped eyes. Bubbles got out and so did Brianna.

"Damn...have to get back to work now...for the *looks around and whispers* the damn Morbucks...no offense Bubbles but all they ever talk about is marrying the Crown Prince Butch or what Lady so and so wore...or how much this dress cost...Damn...if I could find a permanent spell to change them into the toads they are I would." Brianna sighs.

I laughed, "Well when you do, please tell me..I wouldn't mind seeing that...and do that to Lord Daniel for me as well. I have to get home, got some cooking to do." I sighed.

"Oh...oh joy for your family," Brianna rolled her eyes.

I whispered to her through my teeth, "Shut the hell up, or I'll send you some."

"No thanks...not even a straving old man would that shit." She whispered back, and Bubbles had to separate us, so we won't have another fight, but then we just both laughed out loud...Brianna could be just as much as a tomboy as me...I meant she was rough...and scared the boys away...with a fist...and sometimes a wand. None of the tenants ever told on her when she played her nasty pranks on the Morbucks, even one time with that donkey spell, the Morbucks even offered 20 gold coins but no one said a thing.

Everyone knew...first you never tell or angry a witch, because they can curse you...Second: With the Morbucks' taxes, those coins would have gone back to them and three: anyone who could put the Morbucks' in their place was well worth keeping. Thinking of the Morbucks, once again, reminded me of mom...she worked for them.

I drove the cart back home and the twins woke up, both of them hugging me, both of them crying. I had every intention of straggling them, but I just hugged them back.

"You were gone BB! Don't disappear on us...don't leave us like Mommy, don't leave us too!" Sam shouted, and Sammie was crying as she just nodded. Sammie...use to talk...she said her first word at just six months...six months..Dad said all his kids were geniuses, we all said our first word at six months. But when Mom died, Sammie just stop talking...but Sam knew what she said...somehow and he would always stick up for her.

"C'mon you rascals...we've gotta wash up." I held Fang in my arms, as those two were splashing around in the medium size barrel...I hid behind the wall...I covered my mouth and tears rolled down my cheeks...I had to muffled the crying...wiping away tears just for them to be replaced by more...I was stirring at the pot...

They thought I disappeared like Mom.

Flashback

"Now Buttercup, what am I going to do with you." My mom laughed, wiping my face...I was about 12 years old...covered in mud the twins were now one year old, "You were wrestling with Dave again?"

"I beat him."

My Dad laughed as Dave came in covered head to toe in mud, "That's my girl...pretty like her mother but got your old man's moves, huh?" My dad picked me up and spun me around, he patted Dave on the head, and sat back down, "Maybe next time, champ."

"There isn't gonna be a next time, she might break my arm."

I hissed at him, "Shut it."

"Buttercup?" My mom looked at me, I knew there was no way I could hide it any longer from her, I just lifted the chair that Dad was sitting on above my head with both hands.

"Hah...honey look at that!" My dad laughed as I placed him back down, he hugged both me and Dave, "We have some special kids."

"Buttercup...why didn't you tell me? Oh dear, you inherited a lot more fairy blood than I realized...only my Grandmother had such strength, oh dear oh dear, if you grow wings..." Mom started coughing heavily, she sat down, looking pale.

My dad went over and touched her forehead, "My dear, you're burning up again...you must laid down...I'll get Marian (Blossom's mom, I don't know her real name either)."

End of Flashback

I wiped my tears away...I had to get out of here...Mom said Fairies love outsides...and go crazy if they stay indoors too long...Dave came in.

"The Twins are in the bath barrel and dinner is cooking...here's your damn fish..." I torn the apron off and gave him his bag of fish, "I gotta get out of here."

Dave looked at me, "Were you crying?"

"Shut up! I need air," I opened the door, and there was Lord Morbucks with several of his men...standing at our door, but not even he could keep me inside, Dad was just coming in, "Dad, I'm going out!" I yelled, and no sooner did I step outside, that I was calm again...I wasn't so sad...the sun was still pretty much up...not sunset for a couple of hours at least...just enough time...for a ride and my favorite place.

Normal POV

Buttercup's Dad nodded to Dave, who went back into the fields, dumping the fish into his rice paddy field...he also place a scarecrow around the rice paddy to keep the Heroins away.

"BB! We're done!" Sam yelled.

"Excuse me, my Lord, I need to get the twins out, please sit and make yourself at home." He disappeared into the bathroom, Lord Morbucks examined the house a bit, shocked to see how clean it was...not a speck of dust anywhere... Suddenly two green haired kids with matching X' scars on opposite cheeks soon ran out. They jumped onto their father's lap as he sat down in front of Lord Morbucks.

"My, my, what a cozy place you have here." Lord Morbucks started, but the father's smile soon disappeared.

"We already paid our monthly taxes." The Dad said, the kids were surprised by the coldness in his voice.

"Oh, I'm not here for that...But I must admit, this is quite a clean and nice house."

"Well...my 'wife' always believed a clean home is a happy healthy home...and good hygiene as well...bathing everyday...that way...we don't become slime."

Morbucks ignored the insult, "Well...I'll get straight to the point...we need a new maid...and I heard you have a daughter."
