I've Gone Mad For Loving You. (Mad Hatter X F. Reader)

Chapter 10 - Not Everyone Is Crazy

~~~~~ Y/n's Pov ~~~~~

I was back in the garden looking for the hat, I wanted to give it back before I forget

I asked the creature I set free from before and it managed to point me in the direction of it

"Thank you."

I then proceeded to wipe off the dirt that was on top of it

After I managed sneaking my way upstairs of the castle, I finally found the room he was in

"Been looking for this?"

I slyly put it on top of his head and hug him, I looked around and noticed all the hats he made

"They're wonderful hatter, You must let me try one on."

I smiled as he twisted a handle, him smiling as well

"It is good to be working at my trade again."

I frown,

"It's just a pity you have to make them for her."

He stops what he's doing and looks around in front of him as if he's looking for something

"What is the hatter with me? Hatter."

He begins hitting and smashing everything around him, breaking anything in sight

"Hatter."

I scurry over to him and hold my hands on his face while looking into his eyes as he quietly speaks to me,

"Have you any idea why a raven is like a writing desk?"

He looks at me in hopes that I would know, that I would give him an answer of some sort but I just stay silent,

"I'm frightened, Y/n. I don't like it in here. It's terribly crowded. Have I gone mad?"

I carefully move my right hand to his forehead and made a shocked face while placing my hand back on his cheek

I respond,

"I'm afraid so. You're entirely bonkers. But I'll tell you a secret. All the best people are."

I smile which causes him to smile back, my heart leaps once more making me remove my hands off his cheek

"Here."

I pick up his hat and place it back onto his head

"That's better. You look yourself again."

I take a step closer and put my left hand back on his cheek while inching closer to his face, flickering between his eyes and his lips for he was doing the same

"Hat man! Where is my hat man?"

'Oh dear, not the Red Queen.'

I quickly release my hand from his face and back away not wanting to get caught and look toward the door

'It was probably for the best anyways, he probably dosen't even like me in that way.'

I get snapped out of thought as Hatter speaks to me in a hurried manner,

"I'm told she keeps the Vorpal sword hidden in the castle. The rabbit will help you. Find it, Y/n. Take it to the White Queen."

I shake my head,

"We'll go to the White Queen together, Hatter."

He smiles at me,

"Why is it you're always too small or too tall?"

I than smile back and make my way towards the hallway in hopes of finding the sword

I make a right turn and run into the tweedles, and asked them where the rabbit was but they just rambled

"Where's the rabbit?!"

They then pointed two different directions, which wasn't a big help to me at all but I ended up following them

We found the rabbit running towards us from the direction we were heading,

"What is it?"

"I know where the sword is."
