I gave a sigh and act normally in front of others the time they arrived for the tea party..

"Thackery, keep this a secret.."Hatter whispered.

Thackery slowly nods and act normally as well... But too normal...

"Hey Thackery, why do you seem so... Unusual.."Mally then stepped in front of Thackery who was sweating and shaking..

"What?! N..no I am not!"Hatter and I just gulped and tried to distract Mally..

"Mally, would you care for a cup of tea.. And sugar.. And.. Salt.. And-"I stopped Hatter while I laughed silently..

"What's wrong with you three.."Mally then raised an eyebrow.

The three of us chuckled and kept on eating...

The tea party ended up at Sun down... And everyone went home as well as Hatter and I.

"Now that we know who's the target of that feisty old man... I will now have the rights to protect you."Hatter stated.

"What?! No no.. Hatter I'm fine... You don't need to do that."I smiled and looked down.

"Well if it is for you, I would do anything..."Hatter hold both of my hands and smiled.

"Thank you... But.. Promise me you'll be safe too.."I looked at him straight in the eye as I said those words.

"I'll try"

"Promise me!"

"Okay fine... Promise.."

We both smiled and hugged each other so tight...

"Alice... Please don't leave Wonderland anymore... You could stay here forever..."Hatter then murmured.

"I'll try..."

"Thank you.."We then stopped hugging each other.."Hmm.. The Night sky is beautiful tonight.."

"Do you wanna go out for a walk?"I asked.

"But it's too dangerous."

"Didn't we promise each other we'll be safe?"I grinned and giggled.

"Fine, but just for a fewwww minutes."

He then gave me coat and we left the house and walk down the garden.

"I remember seeing the younger you Alice..."Hatter then looked at the stars above him.."You were so innocent... Yet so brave.."

"And because of that happening, Those memories haunt me down.. Good memories... Too good.."I whispered..

"I thought you'll never came back.."He continued.."But then there you are.. Back for the fourth time.."

"That's because I miss you Hatter.."I smiled and lie down by the grass..

"Just me...?"He whispered.

"Uh... By means of that even your friends.. And the Queen.."I continued.

"Hmm.."He smiled and look back at the sky..

"Hatter..."

"Yes?"

"Can we be friends.. Forever?.. I don't want us to part.."I whispered...

"That I cannot promise..."He replied.

"What do you mean?"

"You'll see.."He continued..

"Well if that would be bad,I don't wanna see it anymore.."I sat down and sighed.

"Don't worry, it won't be.."

I slowly closed my eyes and rested my head on Hatter's shoulder..."Then I'll wait for it.."

I then felt Hatter's arms wrapped around me.."Good... I promise you, you'll be surprised."

"Well I hope I won't cry..."

"Maybe a little, but with a smile.."He raised his eyebrows several times as I look at him.

"Okay.." I smiled back and closed my eyes..

"Maybe we should go back inside.."He smiled and hold my hand as we stood up...

We then walk back to Hatter's house and we both say our goodnight to each other..

I wonder what kind of thing that would surprise me...

Hmm...

I slowly closed my eyes as I slowly feel tired... And yet I am still happy because Hatter was beside me... And I know that he will never leave me.. Ever..

I then completely fell asleep as the clock strikes 8:00
