"Jack! It's been a while!" Alice ran to Jack Heart, son of the Queen of Hearts, her old boyfriend.
"Two months!" I threw my arms up in the air. "It's been two months! Jack, we were a bit busy! What is it you want?"
"There's a problem in Wonderland," Jack said, solemnly.
"Of course there is. Lovely. What's the problem?" I felt miserable. Why did I even bother thinking Alice and I were going to live semi-normal, happy lives?
"Well, the Dodo stole the Stone of Wonderland and is now reeking havoc throughout Wonderland."
"And no one can stop him?" Alice inquired.
"No."
"Not even the Suits?" I asked.
"No, not even the Suits."
I scratched my head, thought for a moment and finally said, "Well, you're screwed. Come on, Alice. We can't help Jack or Wonderland."
I turned around to go, but Alice cut in front of me and smacked me. "We are going to help in anyway we possibly can. Got it?" She threatened.
"Yeah, okay, owww…" I managed to stammer.
"So where's the Looking Glass now?" She asked Jack, turning away from me.
"Back at some hotel, I didn't catch the name," he answered, as if it was part of any old conversation.
"Yeah, you probably didn't 'cuz you're such a dolt," I muttered to myself, regaining my composure.
"Well, come on, let's get going," Jack took the lead and walked through the park.
Alice bounded along next to him. She didn't still have feelings for him…. Did she?
I dragged myself along behind them.
Jack made small talk with Alice on the way there. "I still have romantic feelings for you, Alice," he commented, and surprised Alice and me, both.
Alright, it wasn't small talk as much as it was please-come-back-to-me-I-love-you talk.
I ran up in front of the stalled Alice and Jack. "Oh yeah? Well, guess what! Alice and I are dating, and are very serious, so back off!" I yelled. If they couldn't figure out I was the jealous type, they were very, very stupid.
Innocent bystanders stopped to stare at Jack, Alice and me.
"Dating? Well, now, I wouldn't want to interfere on that, would I?" Not the response I was expecting from Jack. He somehow managed to keep his cool.
"Calm down, Hatter. People are staring. And it isn't like I would go back to him. No offense, Jack." Alice attempted to calm me down.
"Prove it," I pouted, keeping up my baby-ish temper-tantrum.
"Okay…" She stood up and snogged me. Which I wasn't expecting. "Are you happy yet?"
"I guess," I whined.
"Well, we had better get going before Dodo can shut down the Looking Glass." Jack pointed to a near-by skyscraper, indicating where he had evidentially come back to Earth.
