Lloyd glared at him and said "Yes me! Any reason why you sound so surprised?"
Raina giggled at the indignant look on Lloyd's face as the guy said "Oh, it's just that I thought you were her brother or friend. You just didn't seem like a couple who were going to get married to me!"
Raina laughed and said "Lloyd's in a huff because he doesn't like my bridesmaid. May I ask your name?"
He smiled and said "Jareth, and may I have a name to put to your lovely face?"
Raina smiled as Lloyd said "Oi mate, that's my fiancée remember!"
Raina rolled her eyes as Jareth raised his hands and said "Hey I meant no harm mate, I'm just a flirt. I mean no harm by it, I can't help myself."
Raina shook her head and said "Just ignore him, I'm Raina!"
He smiled and said "A lovely name, reminds me of nature. The rain falling making everything look so beautiful."
Raina smiled and said "Go back to sleep Lloyd, you were out at the pub late last night. We've still got a long way to go, nothing's going to happen!"
Lloyd frowned but closed his eyes and was soon snoring away.
Raina sneered and turned back to Jareth and said "He's dead to the world for a while now." Jareth smiled and said "It's alright."
Raina sighed and said "It's going to be a long week."
Jareth frowned and said "You seem to need to talk, who am I going to tell?"
Raina smield and said "It's a week before my wedding, everything's getting hectic. My bridesmaid is Lloyd's little sister, but they hate each other always have done even more so when….well.
Her family didn't want her and treated her awfully and eventually she was taken by social services, I managed to get my family to take her in. I used to babysit her when she was little, she's like the little sister that I never had.
She's seven now, she hated Lloyd because she remembers how he treated her. Lloyd hates her because I've always loved her more than him, so they'll be against each other and then with my doubts."
As she said this Lloyd murmured in his sleep, Raina glancing over at him sighed and said "Let's find some other seat, I don't want him to wake up and hear."
They got up and walked to the next place where the doors were. Raina sat down and Jareth sat opposite her, she sighed and said "Lloyd was never my first choice, I met him babysitting Blair.
He pestered me to go out with him until I finally caved and well here I am. But it's strange I keep dreaming about a faraway land with a labyrinth and a guy. I keep seeing him but then I blink and he's gone. It's why I zoned out when we first met, you look like him. I can't help thinking I've forgotten something, something important. Something that's been hidden deep in memory for so long, and now it's trying to break free."
They talked for ages, until they were basically there. Raina stood saying "Hey thanks for listening, I really need it. I should go wake up Lloyd."
Jareth frowned and standing up said "Raina, wait. You're right, there has been something locked in your memory. Me! It's me you can't remember!"
Raina frowned and said "That's not funny Jareth; you can't take advantage of the fact that I'm missing something to try and get with me. I'm marrying Lloyd remember!"
Jareth scowled and said "That idiot! You hated him; I thought you had no dreams including him. I'm in your dreams Raina, remember me!"
Raina shook her head and said "Leave me alone Jareth!" She made to walk away when he grabbed her hand and pulled her back against him.
Looking down into her glowing sapphire eyes, he smiled gently and said "Remember me, my darling queen," before dipping his head and claiming her lips with his. A rush of heat ran through Raina, it just felt right to be kissing Jareth, to be in his arms.
It had never felt this way with Lloyd, it had always been like something was wrong.
When they finally separated Raina touched her tingling lips and then pulling away from him shook her head and ran back to Lloyd. Jareth sighed and said "Why doesn't she remember me?"
