This is a short scene between Jareth and Sarah after Sarah returns to the Labyrinth. Want to find out what occurred to lead up to this point? Please view the prequel chapters of this story :) This did start off as a one-shot. Thanks guys!

Sarah looked at the peculiar crystals she held in her hands and tears of anger trickled down her cheeks. She walked over to the window and reflected on her strange surroundings. She had always thought of the goblin city as being a dream-like illusion with its curious residents and the Labyrinth that was ever changing. It was a place that encouraged her adventurous side whilst also filling her with dread.

Then she saw something in the distance, or rather someone. It was the figure of Jareth, the Goblin King. Jareth was an arrogant monster with charming hair and gorgeous eyes.

Sarah gulped. She glanced at her own reflection. She was of slim build with brunette hair and rosy lips. Her friends saw her as a drama queen who always had her head in a book, learning lines. But to Jareth, she was everything and it worried her as she knew all too well what he was capable of.

But not even Sarah was prepared for what Jareth had in store today.

The moon shone over the Labyrinth making the whole thing look more menacing than when it was cast in the amber glow of the sun.

As Sarah stepped outside onto the balcony, Jareth appeared in front of her, she could see the wonderful glint in his eyes. Jareth glared with all the wrath he could conjure up against her. He said, in hushed tones, "I ask for so little and this is how you repay me?" he made a gesture towards the walls of the room, which were covered in paint scribbles which read 'I HATE YOU!'

Sarah looked back, even more irritable and still fingering the peculiar crystal balls as she tried to control her emotions. "Jareth, you have no power over me," she replied. They looked at each other with unstable feelings, the moment seemed to stretch on and on. Sarah studied Jareth's face and went to open her mouth but before any sound could escape from her mouth, he kissed her. The shock of his sudden movement stunned Sarah. Jareth took a step back and eventually, she took a deep breath. "I'm sorry," began Sarah in apologetic tones, "I love you but I just can't forgive you for what you did. And I don't think I ever will. I just…Jareth." Jareth looked exhausted, his emotions were raw.

Sarah could actually hear Jareth's emotions shatter into millions of pieces. Then his face flushed red with anger, apparently using up all of his energy he yelled in a hoarse voice "I moved the stars for you!"

That was when he jumped off the balcony. Sarah rushed to the edge, with a panic stricken face. Jareth in his owl form flew up into the night sky and vanished. But what retained Sarah's gaze was the view she saw in the sky. The stars had been truly moved. Moved to form the words;

"Forgive me?"
