Sarah was looking out her window when she felt someone sneak up behind her. "Jareth, what are you doing?" She turned around only to see that instead of a blonde haired pretty boy, there was a giant red goblin. "Ludo!" Sarah grabbed her friend and buried her face in his fur.

"Sawah!" He yelled back as he wrapped his arms around her in a giant bear hug.

"I'm so glad you're here! Has Hoggle filled you in on what happened?" Sarah watched as Ludo nodded sorrowfully. "Hey, don't look so sad. I'm okay. Say, what do think about taking a little walk?" He perked up at this and pulled her to the door.

The two ended up walking out to a courtyard filled with beautiful flowers. Sarah walked hand in hand with Ludo as she reminisced about the first time she met him and how her life was going now. Soon they came to the middle of the yard and sat down.

"This would be a beautiful place to practice my meditation."

"Huh?" Ludo cocked his head to the side, never hearing about this 'meditation' before.

"It's where you think about your inner peace and nothing else. It really calms you down and makes you a peaceful person. At least for a few minutes anyway." Sarah giggled as she crossed her legs and watched Ludo attempt the same. "Maybe meditation isn't right for you." She laughed as he fell over.

Sarah came back out to her newfound meditation area after dinner. She was all alone as she sat in the middle of the grassy area and crossed her legs, laying her hands on top. Closing her eyes, she focused on her breath.

"Having fun?" A voice came up behind her and made her jump.

"Jareth," she muttered under her breath. She didn't opened her eyes knowing his voice full well by now.

"Whatever are you doing?"

Sarah sighed as she cracked one eye opened and looked at him when he moved in front of her. "Meditation."

"Why? That looks so boring."

"Just try it and leave me alone." She snapped her eye shut. Eventually she heard him plop down in front of her and her eyes flew open in shock. "You mean...you're actually going to try it?"

"I have nothing better to do at the moment. I was planning on pestering you, but you look so peaceful and beautiful." He flashed a wicked smile. Sarah groaned and rolled her eyes.

"Just sit in this position, place your hands on your knees, and be very relaxed."

Jareth winced as he crossed his legs to copy her position. "I don't think a man is supposed to stretch this way."

"Then sit in the normal cross-legged position. Okay, now close your eyes and take deep breaths. What helps put me in the mood is to count to ten, then think about one thing that brings joy."

"What if it's violent?"

"...Well I suppose if it makes you happy..."

"I know! I'll just think about you." Jareth flashed another grin as she blushed slightly.

"Just keep your mouth shut. You're making my blood pressure rise."

"I can see that."

"Shut. Up."

"Yes love."

"Jareth!"

"If you would quit talking then I wouldn't feel the need to respond. Honestly, I thought you were smarter than that."

Silence.

"Well you're no fun," Jareth stuck his tongue out. She ignored him and continued meditating on causing him physical pain.

About five minutes later she heard him give a bored sigh. She continued ignoring him as he got up and stopped next to her. She felt him place a light kiss on her cheek.

"Well this was fun and all, but I think I'd rather watch a plant grow." He laughed as her faced turned red. "Did your blood pressure rise again dear?" He got up and left before she could hit him.
