Previously...
So Alice walked him to her chambers, sat them down with a cup of tea each and told her side of the separation to him. He listened at some points with a scowl on his face at the mention of the many suitors and rude men talking to her as if she were dirt and a grin when she would have a certain dream remembering their friends.
"As soon as I remembered you, I remembered everything else." She stated. He nodded and smiled kindly at her. It was so good to have her back. Brimming with muchness, he pulled her into his arms in a hug.
Only he didn't stop and his face leaned in towards Alice's. He made eye contact with a wink and stroked her cheek with a thimble-covered finger. The cool metal of the thimble on her skin made her shiver and she leaned towards him as well, almost self-consciously.
They were nose to nose and she sighed. He trailed his finger until it slid off her cheek and held her face in his hands. Then he got even closer (if it was possible) and…
...he touched his forehead to her and sighed heavily. Was this right? - why did he feel like there was some invisable barrier around them? Would it eat them if he proceeded? Did he honestly want to continue? The moment was ruined as soon as Alice looked up; disapointment writen all over her face. He'd buggered it up - big time. There was no way that she would feel this way towards him.
He was a hatter and her best friend - not love, just friend. It was amazing how quickly he hated the word. Friend, no ring to it at all.
Alice opened her mouth to speak but was interupted by a clearing of throats. They turned to see McTwisp there with a worried look on his face.
"Alice, Tarrant - come quickly. Her Majesty has...fallen ill. It's even showing outside!" he exclaimed. They gasped and turned to the windows. It was pouring with rain.
"Let's go!" Alice said, and lifted up her dress so she could run down the corridor towards the Queen's chambers. The hatter put a worried expression on but deep down he felt sorrow of the darkest kind.
Queen of Underland, Mirana was sitting on her sofa in her bedroom beside the fire as she watched the downpour outside. Her fault, she thought. It was her fault she had made it cry - she was feeling it deep within her.
The sadness, the lonelyness of her on her alone to herself - was all too much. Tarrant Hightopp had become the possible suitor to her Champion and yet she was still lonely. The guilty feeling of jealously and pain stroke through her and she started sobbing harder and harder into her hands.
Why was she on her own? Why couldn't she find the one she loved or meant to be with? Why? She had lost the only man she had ever loved to her sister and now she was convinced that she would now forever be lonely. I hate being alone - I need someone to look after me, to hold me and love me and have children - to make a new royal family to Underland so her sister would never rule again.
"Mirana?" came Alice's soft voice as she walked into the room without knocking. Mirana continued crying and somehwere inside it she mumbled hello but not even her could understand through her violent sobbing and shaking of her form.
Alice had never seen the Queen this vunrable. It made her scared. She went over to the Queen and patted her on the back.
"Tell me what's wrong Mirana." she ordered and Mirana didn't disobey.
