Ok so this chapter is going to be in Alice's POV. It's time she got back with her daughter and her Hatter. But this chapter may take awhile. Today, I've been tending to go on and on and on about unimportant matters, tiny details and adding irrelevant somethings into everything. I think Alice in Wonderland is getting to me. I think I may be getting a bit of the Hatter's madness...oh dear...anyways, enjoy!


Alice

Alice looked at the item in her hands. It brought back all the memories of Underland and of...the Hatter. She remembered their last farewell.

"I'll be back before you know it!" she said.

"You won't remember me," the Hatter said, a look of hopelessness fulfilling his eyes

A tear fell from her eyes at this memory. It hit a soft spot in her heart and she knew that she had hurt the Hatter for making him wait this long. It's been 15 years in Aboveland, but God only knew how long that must've been in Underland. It could've been 1 day, 1 week, 1 month, 1 year, 1 decade, 1 century, etcetera. Alice put the vial, that's contents have long since been drank from it, in the small suitcase beside her. She started putting other items that she had gotten from China in the suitcase also and had just finished packing them when she heard a knock on her door.

"Come in!" She called over her shoulder, fastening the straps on the suitcase. The door opened only to reveal none other than Lowell.

"Ah hello, Lowell. What brings you here today?" Alice greeted, turning to face him.

"Hello Alice. I actually came to ask you something." He said, taking his hat off his head and holding it nervously.

"Well ask away! But make it quick. I've got to be somewhere soon." Alice told him.

"I was wondering if you could ever forgive me for what I did to Margaret. The guilt has been eating me alive since that day and it grows worse everyday." He admitted, his face turning shamelessly red.

Alice put her finger to her chin, thinking over what he was saying. "Well Lowell, to tell you the truth, you shouldn't be asking me for forgiveness. It wasn't me you hurt, you know."

"Yes, I know. But you're the only one who knows and you seemed quite mad." he said.

"Well, I can forgive since you seem so sincere about it. But you should tell Margaret and ask for her forgiveness. It'll make the guilt go away but I can't guarantee it will be a happy ending for you two. But you can try, I suppose." Alice told him.

"You're right, Alice. I'm sorry. I really am. I made a terrible mistake that day." He said.

"That you did. Well, I guess you should get going. I was just leaving when you arrived."

"Yes, I suppose I should. Oh and thanks so much for leaving the company to me. I won't let you, Lord Ascot or your dearly departed father down."

"I know you won't. You have good intentions. Well, goodbye Lowell." Alice told him.

"Goodbye Alice. Come visit us soon, okay?" he said, turning and walking out the door.

"I'll try!" she called after him. Alice turned her attention back to her suitcase and grabbed it. It was very light so she had no trouble with it. She walked out of her room, bid farewell to her mother and hopped into the carriage that would take her to Ascot Manor. When she arrived, she waited for the carriage to leave andsnuck into the garden out back. She looked for her rabbit hole and was overcome with joy and happiness when she found it. She lept into it and let out a delightful scream while she tumbled down to be reunited with her daughter and her Hatter.


Well I really hope you liked this chapter as much as I liked writing it. I really liked showing my point of view on Lowell. Although he was a cad he wasn't all bad and had to have some type of heart. Review and tell me what you think!

Love your faithful writer of this story
