A/N this is my first fanfic so tell me what you think it needs =]
Today was her 21st birthday. She reminisced in what had happened over the last six years as she stared into her vanity mirror she had brought from home. The first year after the Labyrinth she had called her friends almost everyday. As the years progressed she called them less and less. Now she only called her friends once or twice every other month.
She had finished high school 3 years ago and two years from finishing her bachelor's degree in theater. It was a Saturday afternoon and her so called "Friends" were taking her to her first bar as a birthday present. She didn't really want to go tonight but she didn't want to make her friends either.
All of a sudden her doorbell rang. "Just a minute," she grimaced at her reflection as she got up from her vanity to answer the door. "Hey Sharyn," said Sarah as she opened the door. "How come you're not ready yet?" "I don't really want to go tonight Sharyn" "Oh no you don't you're coming whether you want to or not." Sharyn playfully dragged Sarah to her bedroom. She looked over Sarah, grimacing at her choice of clothing. "You're sooo not wearing that tonight, are you?" "No because I don't want to go, but I see that I have no choice so why don't you help me." "I thought you would never ask," Sharyn said with a devious smile.
About an hour and forty-two outfits later, Sarah was finally ready. She looked over herself in her mirror and smiled. She hardly recognized herself and doubted anyone else would either. Sarah and Sharyn called their other friends and told them to meet at the bar Sharyn had chosen.
As soon as they got to the bar Sarah wished in her mind that she hadn't come. Sarah hadn't wished anything out loud in six years in fear and hope that He would come. The irrational desire to see him was one of the things scared her.
Over the six years away from the Labyrinth Sarah had thought about Jareth almost every day. She would remember certain things about him every time determined not to forget anything about him he still frightened her slightly. She would remember his wild, platinum blonde hair, or his exotic shaped eyes, or her favorite part of him, his soul piercing, dangerously mismatched eyes.
She shook the thoughts of him from her mind as she walked into the bar with Sharyn. She immediately saw her other friends sitting at the bar with a small cake that looked like it would be just enough to feed all five of them. An hour later they were all having a great time; Jamie, one of Sarah's other friends suddenly shook Sarah's shoulder. "Hey Sarah that guy over there is sooo checking you out. He hasn't stopped staring at you all night!" Sarah looked where her friend was pointing and her heart stopped. He was wearing black skinny jeans with a black leather jacket and a tight white t-shirt. His blonde hair was wild, going in every direction, falling in soft feather like wisps framing his face, but the thing that made her breath catch in throat was his eyes. They were staring at her with such passion and they were mismatched just like the Goblin King's were. Only he could have eyes like that, "Jareth" she barely breathed his name but she still saw him smile as she said his name.
