This is my first fanfiction (ducks out of view). Reviews and input are greatly appreciated. I know it's like putting a lamb up for slaughter but please don't kill me with cruel reviews(criticism is ok though). I'll quite talking now and let you read so here you go! :D

Chapter 1
I laid in my bed in my newly purchased apartment gazing at the ceiling as I found myself doing more often after a agonizing night of dreadful sleep. I had the same dream or better called a nightmare about the only man I ever loved. They really weren't dreams more like memories except I was more aware of the pain in Jareth's eyes every time. When I broke his trance of the magical ballroom, that I had come to realize over the years he had done just for me, not to waste my time. When I uttered the line I knew I would regret for the rest of my life "You have no power over me." How was it I was just now seeing that it literally killed part of him to hear me utter those stupid words? I will forever hate myself for the pain that I inflicted upon that beautiful, love filled man! How I could destroy his heart and soul like that will forever be unknown to me. I uttered the single phrase that summed everything up... "What have I done?!"
I realized I had been crying for about three hours as I looked at my clock and it read 4 am. Still after long crying myself out I couldn't find it in myself to stifle my sobs. I felt the pain I was inflicting upon my heart was minuscule compared to the pain I have caused Jareth, just the thought of Jareth being in pain physical or emotional was enough to keep me upset. I wished on many occasions to return to the castle beyond the Goblin City to beg for forgiveness at the feet of the Goblin King, this situation was no different. (If only Sarah knew she were asking the wrong question to summon him.

In the throne room of the Goblin castle sitting sideways in his very roomy, luxurious throne... I sat regretting every moment since she left even ten years ago it was still painful. Suddenly I was overcome with a immensely crushing amount of grief. There was only one person who could elicit such an amount of pain on my heart, even though Sarah was Aboveground she was only a whisper away and it killed me knowing she was in such pain and all she had to say was "I wish you could be here with me Jareth please come to me."
I had only slept when she slept, dreamed when she dreamed and yearned when she yearned for ten years since her departure from the Labyrinth. I knew Sarah dreamt of me because I dreamt of her. Even though she didn't realize at the time I was haunted by the longing in her eyes as we twirled gracefully to me singing in my conjured ballroom. Longing for me yet torn between me and her brother, knowing Sarah wouldn't choose me caused a great deal of emotional distress for me still to this day. Knowing in the end that she would choose Toby never made the ending easier to swallow.
Oh all I want is for her to summon me and I would graciously oblige. (Unbeknownst he was just about to get his wish.)
