(With Hatter)

Tarrant was in the garden near his house setting up. He had been planning a special tea party. He planned on proposing to Chessur. He smiled just thinking about the feline hybrid. Soon four female cheshires appeared. They all tackled the Hatter with a hug. He smiled as he hugged them all back.

"Good afternoon Azure, Chelsie, Sky, Callie." He greeted them.

"Tarrant." They all smirked at him.

"Thanks for coming over to help." He said.

"Of course." Azure said. "You're proposing to our brother."

"We want to help." Callie said.

"Now put us to work." Chelsie said.

"Will do." He said.

The five got to work. With the help it didn't take them long to finish setting up and getting all the food made. Soon Cheshire and the other guests arrived. Chessur was surprised to see his sisters there. He was happy to see them though. He was quick to greet them.

"Chessur!" They yelled when they saw him.

"Hey Azure, Chelsie." He greeted his older sisters before hugging his younger one. "Sky, Callie."

"We missed you." Callie said.

"I missed you all as well." He said.

"You better." Azure warned.

"I do." He laughed.

"Good."

Everyone sat down and began filling cups and plates. The party starts. Ches noticed something strange. All the foods on his plate were shaped like rings. Nobody else was shaped that way. He began to suspect what was going on. He really hoped he was correct.

He was still shocked that he and Hatter were dating. It wasn't just the fact that Tarrant loved Alice. It was due to what happened during Horunvendush Day. Hatter had blamed him for so long and truth be told he had blamed himself. He didn't know how to fight. He was scared so he used his powers to disappear. He never believed Hatter would forgive him and yet he did.

Chessur was distracted when Tarrant stood up. Everyone stopped eating and drinking to look at him. He smiled at all of them before looking at Ches with a softer, fonder smile.

"Thank you everyone for coming today. Only one of you has no idea why I planned this party." He said before kneeling down in front of Chessur. "This past year has been amazing. You helped me to heal and showed me how worthy I am of love. Will you do me the honor of marrying me?" He showed him the ring.

The ring was made from silver. The gem was a rainbow gem in the shape of a hat. It sparkled in the sunlight. Chessur loved it. He leaped at Hatter and kissed him.

"Is that a yes?" Mally asked.

"It's a yes." He answered when he finally stopped kissing Tarrant.

Everybody cheered and congratulated them. They all celebrated till it was dark out. They cleaned up for the couple before leaving.

(With Alice)

It was finally time for Adam to come back from his trip. Alice went around cleaning the house. She wanted to make sure there was no evidence of her one-time affair. She wasn't going to do it again. She was not her sister's husband. That man was a pig and she wasn't. She was better than that. She didn't want to hurt Adam so she didn't want him to ever find out.

"Alice! Alice, I'm home!" Adam yelled.

"Coming!" She went to greet her husband.

She ran down the stairs and jumped into his waiting arms. He laughed and spun her in the air. He stopped and kissed her. He had missed her dearly. He was very happy to see her again.

The two eventually separated. They ate dinner and Adam talked about his time in France. Alice lied about her time at home. The two soon went to bed.

Time went on. Alice started feeling sick. One day the two came home with news for the other. Alice was excited while Adam was depressed. Adam let Alice talk first.

"I'm pregnant. We're going to have a baby." She told him.

"You cheated on me?" He asked, looking shocked, hurt, and betrayed.

"W-what? Why would you ask that? Don't you want to have a baby?" She asked. 'How did he figure it out?'

"I want kids. I asked because I just came back from the doctor. I just received word that I'm sterile." He told her.

That made her blood run cold. Her one night mistake had gotten her pregnant. It wasn't her husband's. He couldn't have kids biologically. He knew she cheated on him. Her world was ending and it was all her fault.

"You cheated on me." He said with a shaky breath. "I can't believe it."

"Adam-"

"No!" He stood up and left.

Alice hunched over and cried. She had truly screwed up. Her mum was right. She was a horrible person. First she hurt someone that fell for her and called him many names. Now she hurt her husband. She had believed she was better than her sister's husband but in reality she was no better. She wouldn't blame her husband if he left her.
