Authors Note: Sorry about all the incorrect spelling in the story. Whenever
I write it just flows and I don't stop so a lot of words are spelt
wrong.
I went up to my wing of the castle. I had decided to make one of my rooms into a playroom. With costumes and mirrors and have one of the walls made into a huge dressing table so I can put on make-up and things.
As soon as I said that to one of the goblins he ran down to Jareth and within minutes the room magically filled with all the things I would want in it. But I couldn't play around now. I had to get ready for the ball.
I took a shower and did my hair and put on the clothes the goblins brought up for me. In the end I had on a long velvet red dress. The straps were actually many little straps that crossed over in the back. The dress started out a deep red and went deeper and deeper until it hit the bottom, which is when it turned black. I had black velvet gloves on and my hair up in a French twist, which was held up by bobby pins. I had never been so dressed up before.
I went down stairs and came to two doors that led into the ballroom. A goblin wearing a tuxedo was waiting outside the doors and would open them for people as they came. When I came to the doors his eyes got very big.
"Your names is…?" he asked.
"Grace." I answered.
"Oh! It's you!" he said with his eyes growing bigger by the second. "Will you hold on a minute please ma'am?" I nodded.
He cleared his voice then opened the doors and stepped out right in the doorway.
"Ladies and Gentlemen! I give you your new queen, Grace!" he said in a loud voice.
The crowd of masked creatures stared as I walked into the room. As soon as I took one step into the room I felt uncomfortable. Everyone was wearing black and white. I stood out very extremely. I walked through the crowd, which was till silent, and my face was getting to be the color of my dress.
"If you don't calm down then I'll turn you into a goblin." I heard a voice say across the room. The voice sent chills up my spine, so of coarse, I knew who it was.
I turned around just as the crowd parted. I saw across the room standing in a crowd of women was Jareth. He was wearing something different from everyone else just like I was. He had on black pants and a deep red shirt, the same red my dress was colored.
He walked towards me with the usual teasing smile on. Music seemed to magically start playing as he took my hand and danced with me. The crowd was still silent as they watched us move across the floor.
"Why is everyone staring at us?" I asked.
"There jealous." He said, seeming to be oblivious that anyone else was in the room.
"Well what should we do?"
"Just let them stare." He said looking deep into my eyes.
The song ended. The crowd seemed to have ended their trance and talked among themselves. Ever so often I would see people looking at me, but as soon as I looked at them they quickly turned away.
"Let's get out of here. I'm bored." He said looking around him. He led me to a bowcany that seemed to be deserted. The view was beautiful. The tiny lights that were on in Goblin City seemed to light up the sky. I ran over to the rail and leaned over. Jareth walked slowly to the rail beside me.
"The reason I took you away from all them was because I wanted to give you this." He said as he waved his hand and a peach appeared.
"A peach?" I said taking it from him.
"Yes. But it's not a regular peach. It helps you see dreams."
"Dreams?" I said looking over the peach.
"Yes. My dreams. And maybe if you're lucky…" he leaned over and kissed me softly on the cheek. "I'll let you live them."
His smile was still teasing me. I felt like the luckiest person on Earth. How could a man like me? Me? A silly 14 year old girl that lives off of her dreams and hopes?
I took a bite of the peach. As soon as I did, everything went hazy. The last thing I remember is seeing Jareth smiling……

Hmmmmmm……I wonder what will happen…..Well guess what. I'm not going to update if you don't review. It would be a pity to not know what will happen to Grace…….
