From the P.O.V. of Sarah.
Maybe I did the wrong thing. I'll never know if he loved me or not. It could have all been a strategy to get my brother, but at the same time he did things that made me question him. Question myself. Do I love him? No. Just because he's constantly on my mind now doesn't mean I miss him, either. I think.
I need to get my homework together and head to school. I couldn't have stayed there! I have school. And there's no way they could have sent my homework to me down there. Where was 'there' anyway? For all I know the Underground could have been a codename for hell, and Jareth the devil himself. It wouldn't surprise me. The Bible says that sin will look attractive…
No. Have to stay away from him. I don't care about him or the Underground. I still see my friends on occasion and that's all that matters. Just yesterday Hoggle stopped by. I asked him how Jareth was doing and he said he was fine. Didn't come out of his room much, but he was still alive. Why did that make me worry so much? Maybe Jareth doesn't leave his room when there's no one down there to throw into the Labyrinth.
Oh! I just found Mike's note. He's a sweetheart. We've been in the same classes for the past two years and I'm just now noticing him. He looks nothing like Jareth. Black short hair, just past five foot, and is into manly things like wrestling and football. He's nice and all, but we just don't connect. My friends always ask if we're going to go on a date soon and I can never answer. I need to stay away from thoughts about Jareth, but every time I look at Mike I think of the love I may have walked away from.
Will I ever forget my time there? Hopefully not. I don't want to forget his face, because he helped make me who I am now. I know I'm stronger than I previously thought; strong enough to make it through the pain of losing him.
Pain? Is that what I feel every time I think of him? Yes, it is. I…I miss him. I want to go back. I want him. I…love him.
