AN: So, my second fanfiction. I'm still doing my first one - 'Relocated to Morganville' and Bloodlines&The Morganville Vampires crossover - but I've become a little crazy for Alice in Wonderland lately. So, I hope you like this!:D

Chapter 1

I sat at home, reading. My husband stood over me.

"Haven't you made dinner, Alice?" he asked.

"I'm sorry, but I've been rather busy. My sister came over, and she only just left."

"That's no excuse!" He slapped me. It had become a habit of his. I was sick of it.

"Stop hitting me! I am tired of being treated like I'm your servant rather than your wife!" I stood up and walked out of the room.

"Alice? Where are you going?" I stopped on the stairs.

"I'm leaving!"

"Why?"

"Because I don't deserve this!" I packed up my stuff.

"Alice-"

"Save it. I don't want to hear excuses." I ran out the door.

I sat at the bus stop. I thought about how different my life would be if I had stayed in Wonderland all those years ago. I thought about the Mad Hatter. Even at 8 years old, I knew I would never love anybody like I loved the Hatter. I wished I could return, but I had made my decision. And I regretted it.

"Miss?" a voice called.

I turned to see a woman standing near the bus stop. She looked exactly like the White Queen... No, I only thought that because I'd been thinking about Wonderland.

"Yes?"

"Did you drop this?" she asked.

I stared at her. She was holding out a vial of Jabberwocky blood. The blood I'd used to get home. But there was none of that left.

She looked at me meaningfully. Trying to figure out what I remembered, I realised. It was the White Queen!

"Alice?"

"Yes!" I stood up and hugged her.

"You remember me?" she asked.

"Of course!" I was crying now. "I missed you all so much! My God! How is everything? How is the Hatter?"

"Not good since you left, my child. He has been asking me to order your return. I decided to offer you the chance to return to us."

"Really? Your timing couldn't be better!" I exclaimed. "I would love to return to Wonderland!"

"Then come with me."

I followed her for a while until she came to an empty field. She held out the Jabberwocky blood. "Drink and think of Wonderland." I did.

I was back.
