Disclaimer: this is a work of fiction done solely for the purpose of fan fiction. Jareth and Sarah and any other Labyrinth characters belong to Jim Henson Company. I actually prefer it that way.

Author's Note: This was originally written for the "100 word drabble challenge from the J/DB Harem Group. Each Labyrinth drabble is inspired by/based on a David Bowie song." Around chapter 30 the song artist and choices change but the 100 part of the challenge still is in effect.


Can't Help Thinking


Golden Years


Sarah sat on the counter staring into Paul's warm grey eyes while he cradled her face between his hands. "I'm sorry Sierra; I don't think you're right for the role." He slowly leaned in and captured her lips in a chaste kiss then broke away. Paul turned from her and took his coat from where he had thrown it the night before. Sarah remained where she was while Paul put on his coat and shoes.

Paul searched his pockets for his car keys; he met her eyes briefly before turning away.

"I know you'll be a famous actress one day."


Last night they loved you, opening doors and pulling some strings, angel
Come get up my baby

In walked luck and you looked in time
Never look back, walk tall, act fine
Come get up my baby

I'll stick with you baby for a thousand years
Nothing's gonna touch you in these golden years, gold
Golden years, gold whop whop whop
Come get up my baby
