The sun was shining. It was a beautiful day .Sarah awoke to the sounds of the birds outside singing their usual tunes but today was different no longer would Sarah wake up to the same birds she'd heard every morning since she was little no these were different .Although the same tune they had always been Sarah knew never would she wake up the same way again.

She felt the sweet morning air as the covers were pulled back and replaced by a soft hand which began to stroke her arm . She felt complete relaxation as the heat from the hand began to radiate her skin . The hand began to stroke her arm up and down.

"Morning Love. How were your dreams?"

Rolling over

"Um not as good as last night," she reached up locking her arms around his as they kissed.

Taking her in his arms shielding her naked body from the cold morning air

Pulling away as the kiss ended "I love you so much Sarah."

"I love you to… which is exactly why you should stay."

"Love you no I would if I could . I want nothing more than to stay with you"

"Ya I know but its not fair."

Smiling "Is work ever fair."

"I suppose not." she said as they began to kiss again.

They continued what they had the previous night.

6 hours later.

Driving up to her house Sarah couldn't help but smile for the first time in her life everything was perfect . She had the perfect job ,perfect home , when she graduated college her dad gave her the house so that way he her stepmother and Toby could move closer to their work, then last but not least she had the perfect man . She never had to be afraid when she meet Ben she new that he would never let anything happen to her. The first time they meet was when she was on her daily routine getting coffee on the way to work when a man with a gun came and began to shoot. She new he was the one when he jumped in front of her and later at the hospital told her she could make it up at dinner. Aside from being extremely brave he was also very charming caring and sensitive growing up with five older sisters he was able to see how different things affected them in different ways and he learned from it making him a true gentlemen. Unlike other men Sarah had been involved with Ben was (unlike his personality) on the darker side with velvet black hair perfectly tanned skin and amazingly muscular body he had easily blown out almost all of her previous relationships .

As Sarah parked her car she saw in the corner of her eye a white owl sitting on the mailbox. She turned her head swiftly but saw nothing was on it . Your just getting paranoid nothings was there and nothing ever was. She thought to her self as she got out and began to walk to the door .

When she opened the door the house was filled with roses .It was all Sarah could see smell and touch in every direction . As Sarah admired the deep red roses she thought Awe how sweet of him! I love him So much! This is a good start for making up for missing valentines day with me. She smiled as she made her way up the satires .

The house smelled so sweet and the roses were beautiful everything was perfect except Ben wasn't there but he promised he would call her between seven and nine so Sarah made sure that all of the phones were visible in the sea of roses. After she was done with her daily chores she sat down and began to eat her dinner unknowingly with a pair of eyes never leaving her from the shadows .

8:45

The phone began to ring. Sarah jumped up from her seat at the table and ran to the counter searching for the phone which had somehow disappeared in the sea of roses.

Ring … Ring ….Ring

It continued to go off until finally 27 scratches later she found it. Grabbing it desperately knowing that she didn't want to miss Ben she answered it.

"Hello !" she answered trying to find a way to hold the phone while not being smothered in roses.

"Hello Sarah? What's wrong you sound flustered." Ben asked

Giggling " Its kinda hard not to." she said looking around at the flowers everywhere

"I take it you got my gift ?"

"O ya I got it and I love it but honestly babe don't you think it's a bit much?"

"Nothing is ever enough for my girl."

Amused "That's not fair I haven't gotten you anything this big in retune. What am I gona do?"

"O I have an idea of how you can …."

"O ya care to tell me what it is ?"

"Well I wasn't planning on doing this over the phone but my boss has extended my trip so I won't be back for a week so I guess this will have to do since I have my heart set on doing this on Valentines day and I know I'm not strong enough to wait another year,"

"Babe what is it ?"

"Marry me Sarah make me the happiest man that ever lived."

"O my god Ben!!!!"

Sarah's heart was racing .As she was about to answer when the lights began to flicker. Thunder and light began to go off all around her. The house began to shake and roses were flying everywhere .Then the double doors to her backyard flew open flowed by a gust of light that blinded Sarah . The next thing she new her world began to spin then all of the sudden she began to lose her balance and the next thing she new on the floor. Peddles flying every began to rest on her . She was losing consciousness everything began to darken . Then it was like the world had froze for everything stopped. Then from forth the shadows he stepped forth. She new instantly why he was here and she had seen this day coming but never fully accepted it to happen. He was right above her now towering above he had not changed a bit more fiercely handsome than ever he knelt beside her.

"Hello Sarah. Did you miss me?" he said with an arrogant smirk

Sarah just glared at him from under the peddles. There was a long pause that they spend just gazing into each others eyes then finally Sarah could no longer stand it.

"Well get on with it are you going to kill me or not"

Shock and amusement took over his face as he reached out and stroked her cheek

"I would never dream of it my precious thing." Jareth answered

The last thing she saw was Jareth with the same smirky smile on his face then it all went dark…
