DISCLAIMER: I don't own Pandora Hearts or any of its characters. All of it belongs to Jun Mochizuki.

Let's begin the show! *goes into the box*


IV. Revelation

When Alice opened her eyes, she found herself in bed in the Rainsworth mansion alone.

The moment she opened her eyes, the first thing she thought of was meat, but when she remembered the way Oz had treated her earlier, she suddenly felt sad.

Why… why did Oz answer me that way? She thought. Was it my fault for scolding him?

At that moment, Alice felt insignificant. Guilty and alone. Her thoughts were a bit jumbled.

She was suddenly distracted when she heard a creaking sound. Then the sound of something going shut. A door. Speak of the devil and he will appear.

She turned her head to see Oz coming in, probably to visit her. Or maybe apologize again. She had the time to blush slightly.

"What are you doing here?" Alice asked, with a hint of annoyance in her tone. Oz sat down at her bedside.

"I just wanted to see if you were fine. Are you okay?" Oz asked, suddenly holding her hand, concerned.

Alice held back her hand. "Do I look okay?" Alice asked. "No, wait, that's not it… Do I even feel okay?"

"D-Did I say something wrong?" Oz asked, feeling nervous.

"Great, now you're acting as though nothing happened," Alice said, getting a bit teary-eyed. "After answering me that way, do you think I'd be okay?"

"I… Look, Alice, I'm sorry. Really. I was just—"

"Oz." Alice said, as she looked at her manservant straight in the eye. "I'd want to accept your apology. But now you're making, no, about to make an excuse after an apology? Geez, you never learn."

"Alice, I'm really sorry. I just wanted to explain—"

"Explain what? Oh, so you're going to tell me you answered back at me simply because you're busy with your thoughts, huh? Was that it?"

"Alice," Oz continued, in a serious tone. "Would you let me explain?"

"You don't have anything to explain!" Alice shouted back. "No, wait… on second thought, you do have something to explain, manservant," Alice continued, straightening herself up.

"JUST WHAT THE HELL WERE YOU THINKING ABOUT EARLIER!" Alice shouted hysterically.

And finally, for some unknown reason, Oz's temper was slightly triggered.

"Fine then. You want to know? Do you really want to know, Alice?"

Alice was silenced by his words.

"Very well, then. I'll tell you what he said."

Alice was shocked at the emphasis on the word 'he'. "What? H-he?"

"Yes. And I'm referring to Jack." Now it was Oz's turn to straighten up.

"It's actually quite long, so since you seem to be in a hurry, I'll just start with this…"

TADA~! Finally! I updated! *goes out from the box*

Actually, the chapters I've written at home are more than enough for me to update almost daily, but since it's hard to type and stuff… you know the rest. XD

Anyways, thank you for continuously anticipating this fanfic! I totally appreciate it! And as always, here is my simple request: do not be afraid to give criticisms, people. I'm receiving a lot of it (in terms of drawing, though) so, I'm somewhat used to it. will always be waiting for one.

Reviews, please?

P.S. From now on, I will use double lines as a start and finish of each chapter. Single lines will be used only in the change of P.O.V.s.
