Thanks again to my editors. Can you guys please review and also, take my pole weather Cassie should get a sibling or not

Cassie woke up in the middle of the night to use the restroom and went to see Dad.


"Daddy," she said as she rounded the corner of the Hattery. There were all sorts of hats and fabrics in the hattery. Cassie rembered the old hattery at home. She had visited it everyday since she could rember. Hatter smiled to himself. Cassie was small for her age but very cute, to him at least. She looked up to him her long red hair down her back and her beautiful white nightgown to her feet. "What can I do for you, Cassie?" he asked. Cassie went up to him and hugged him. 
It was good to have her dad safe. After a moment, she asked, "Why did you want them to chop off my head?" she asked. 
 "Hmm?" the Hatter said, as most parents would. "When did I say that?"

"At the tea party," Cassie said looking up at him.

"Oh," Hatter said, remembering. "I did not want your head chopped off. But if the Black Knight saw fear he would use it against me."

"Were you scared?" Cassie asked.

The hatter thought for a moment. "Yes, I was," he answered.

"But it was for Alice, you didn't notice me," Cassie pointed out, sounding hurt.

"Oh Cassie, honey, I'm sorry," he apologized. "The Frachious day is so exciting. I just got lost in the excitement of it all. I would never let them cut off your head. I love you more than you will ever know, for you are my daughter, my baby, and there is nothing more special than that." Hatter said, hugging her tightly.

"I'm scared for tomorrow," she said. "I don't want to leave you."

"I know, sweet pea, but remember, you can make friends with any animal, even the bandersnatch." he said, smiling at her.

"It's been so long--what if Bandit the bandersnach doesn't remember me? What if the Red Queen finds out who I am?" she asked anxiously.

"Pray." Hatter said simply. Cassie did just that.
