Second Encounter Part 2

We just stared at each other, I never thought I missed him this much, the part of me that wanted to forget this was gone, and he was real. I wanted to run to him but I just stood there like an idiot and gawked. He opened his mouth to say something but I beat him to it.

"I missed you", it just came out and all my anger at him was gone.

"Alice", he said it strained, "why are you here, the mirror was locked", he finished, then rose.

"I wanted to see you and the mirror wasn't locked, it was as easy as last time. Aren't you excited to see me hatter", I said worried.

"Alice pay attention, I have to say I hate you, I never cared for you and just go home before you become my problem", he walked back to his desk and started working again. Why what's wrong with me, why are you doing this to me? A single tear slid down my cheek.

"Don't cry Alice this is harder for me then it is for you, now go away".

"WHY? Is this your big joke, do you really hate me", I screamed at him, I hadn't had a tantrum since I was six.

"JUST GO AWAY BEFORE I BLOW MY HAT, ALICE"

"ANSWER ME FIRST HATTER"

"NO"

"WHY"

He took a deep breath and looked at me, "I'm going to get in shit for this, I don't hate you, and I never did that's what Jack is making me say, now I have work to do."

"What do you mean Jack said"?

"He wants to make you to be his Queen, and that's why I am supposed to do, If anyone has seen you they have to bring you to him and I must make you believe that I feel nothing", he spoke as though the world was going to end.

"I want you Hatter that's why I came back at all, I'm falling fast, please hatter don't take me away and force me to be with someone I could never love", I spoke in a rush.

"But Alice, we can't be together, I want you but you are forbidden." Hatters spoke with sadness in his eyes, as he came up to me. Without thinking I kissed him, it was just a peck but to me it was a new life.

His eyes looked at me with emotions that I couldn't read, not that I was any good at reading people. Then I started to walk away. I needed air to think without him there, I needed, I needed what? What did I need? Then he grabbed me and pulled me in for a kiss, it was filled with longing and forbidden love, I never wanted it to end. He let go, then muttered something to soft for me to here.

Thanks to susan-black7 for my first review. Please review and I am sorry for not getting back to you sooner, with school and stuff it's been busy. Wish me luck today I'm dissecting an eyeball.
