Chapter 5 ~ Reuniting The Brides

Alice

I looked at Jinx as I felt his intense stare. Looking up at his blue eyes he let loose a sigh.

“We need to make a plan.” he said, rather tiredly.

I nod, “Sounds like a good plan.”

But first, both of us stood in the middle of the room, I eyed the couch, wanting Jinx to have the bed. It was the polite thing to do. But Jinx looked like he was ready to sprint to the couch so I’d have to take the bed. We stared each other down, both matched in our stubbornness until Jinx surprised me by hugging me.

I squeak and blush until I realized what he was doing when he picked me up.

“Jinx! Let me down! I’m taking the couch!” I flail in his arms that were surprisingly strong around me.

“Nope, it’s mine.” he says laughing at my struggle.

“Jinx!” I hissed though he dumped me on the bed and darted to the couch, his long legs and my bit to regain my control had its advantages and he lay across the couch.

I growl and narrow my eyes at him as he just smiled at me, his hands behind his head as he looked like he was lounging.

“You’re such a child.” I say.

He pouted, faking being offended. “Oh that hurt!”

I smile a bit. “I will sit on you; I’m not sleeping on this bed! If you won’t let me on that couch, I’ll sleep on the floor!”

“Fine then, do it.” Jinx said teasingly.

I did so, standing up and walking over, sitting on his stomach, he didn’t even groan. Was I really that light?

“Now, as for the plan. How are we going to jog their memories without getting killed?” I ask.

“Well, we haven’t been to the Kingdom of Hearts or the White Kingdom yet.” I offer. “Andy is the Mad Hatter, here he’s the mafia leader. Jake is the March Hare, the mafia leader’s right hand man. Ashley is the leader of the Amusement Park and the Cheshire Cat. I’m guessing CC is the leader of the Red Queen’s knights. She needed one of those.”

Jinx nodded trying to piece this together, I felt bad. He didn’t know a thing about Wonderland other than the book and the movies. All untrue, Wonderland had been altered, twisted majorly to where it was more advanced but still rather mad. New realms added and more beasties to look out for.

“Wait, you said that there was a White Kingdom… Who’s there?” he asked.

I thought a moment, “I guessed CC wasn’t in the White Kingdom because he isn’t you know… tame and regal like they would be. I… don’t know who it would be.”

Jinx looked utterly lost as I looked down at him but the look in his baby blue eyes said he was trying his best to get a grip on this.

“Are you sure this isn’t just a dream? It might just be really bad, freak dream? I just fell asleep before the show…” Jinx said.

“Oh no Jinx, don’t do this. Don’t be in denial now, it gets you nowhere, trust me!” I say worried.

“It could be, this is all mad! Magic doesn’t exist. Neither does Wonderland! My brothers would never forget me. Or kill without thinking!” Jinx says.

“J-Jinx… calm down. This isn’t a dream. It’s one real nightmare. You’re in it. Pinch yourself if you don’t believe me.” I reply.

He did so and apparently did it too hard as he winced. “It’s really not? They forgot me? And we’re stuck here?”

I sadly nod, “I will try my best to get us back, but we must survive and deal with Wonderland while we’re here.”

Wonderland was cruel and mean. Usually I just stayed for a day or two. Invited to a few tea parties, hung out with the Cheshire at the park, had fun times! It was more fun when I was just a girl, now it was horrible as all my friends were gone thanks to that wicked Red Queen. She had always been after everyone, including me. But I never thought she’d kill all the people I held dear. I missed the original Blood, original Cheshire…

“So… what are we going to do?” Jinx asked sadly.

“We’re going to the White Kingdom tomorrow afternoon. Unless you want to stay here and ride rides and stuff?” I ask a little shyly.

Jinx shrugged, “White kingdom, we need to see who’s running it.”

I nodded “Now… go sleep on the bed!” I pointed at the neat queen bed in the corner.

“Nope, I’m staying right here.” He says stubbornly.

I growl, “I’m on the floor then!”

“Fine.” He says as I huff and stand up, going to lie down on the tiled floor.

“Goodnight sweetheart.” He says, I could sense the smirk in his voice.

“Night.” I growl and soon drift asleep on the cold floor.

I waited and waited until finally Alice fell asleep. But I was thankful when her eyes finally shut and I heard light snoring, it sounded more like murmuring but either way I thought it was cute.

Of course I wouldn’t let her sleep on the floor! How ungentleman like. Nobody should have to sleep on the floor when they have another option.

I got up quietly, unsure what kind of sleeper she was when I picked her up off the floor. Alice was a stick, she seemingly weighed nothing! I easily picked her up bridal style and walked quietly over to the bed, tossing the covers back so I could lay her in the silky sheets.

As I covered her up again her long white-blonde hair fell across her face. I couldn’t help it and gently brushed it away and behind her ear. I looked at her angelic face a few moments. Her fairly pale skin and how her face held no blemishes. She really was stunning.

My heart pounded as I thought about her, her wonderful personality and how cute she was when she was being stubborn. I tore myself away as the pounding turned to painful throbbing. I couldn’t love this quickly again. I couldn’t put my tattered heart through that again.

I walked back over to my couch and lay down again, huddled in a ball. I tried to block out the worlds and my thoughts, going numb and silently letting tears fall until I passed out until morning.
