Randi woke up to a very unhappy Goblin King. A towel was wrapped around his waist as he stalked through his room, items of clothing flying everywhere, a small goblin bowing and babbling on his 'sorry' and 'I didn't think'. Jareth turned to the goblin and promptly kicked the thing, it flying out the doorway. Rubbing his temples he sat himself down at the end of the bed, only to have a pillow flung at his head, hitting its target. He blinked, shocked, then slowly looked at Randi.

"Pet…"his voice was full of annoyance. ":Why exactly did you choose to throw a pillow at me, this morning?"

Randi glared at him, pulling the covers closer to herself. "You were being mean…."

Jareth's brow shot up in mock surprised. He turned himself fully and started 'crawling' towards the young girl in his bed. Mean? Mean?! Him! Ha.

"And how exactly, have I been mean?"

He was now hovering over Randi, arms on either side of her, making an escape inevitable. He saw a flicker of fear pass in her eyes. Good. He WAS getting somewhere after all. It would be a shame to have a defiant little prat all his life.

"Y-you kicked the goblin!"

"Pet…I kick many goblins…you're going to have to get used to it."

His tone was flat, as if it was a normal everyday thing. Goblins were…well….goblins! They were only his amusement to use at a whim. He could kick them if he surely wanted to. No little girl would tell him otherwise. Certainly not one who failed to complete his Labyrinth.

Randi looked away from him, her hand coming up to fiddle with her collar. Jareth spotted this and smirked. So she had already recognized this was staying apart of her for a very long time. Another 'good' in his book. He leaned down to give a brief kiss, if it was that, on his pets forehead before removing himself from the bed and went to go get dressed.

Randi glared off in his direction and once he was out of sight she yanked on the black leather collar around her neck. It wouldn't move an inch in any direction to allow her to get it off. It didn't even have a clasp to undo it! She gave up after fifteen minutes, deciding to wash up herself. At least she had that choice.

Throwing back the covers she wandered into the connecting bathroom, grinning slightly to herself. There, on the far wall in the room, was a mammoth bathtub. It could easily fit ten people. Her thoughts wandered to why the Goblin King had such a large tub, but decided since he was king, he would naturally have larger, bigger than life, things. Shrugging she turned on a faucet , letting the tub fill up. Soon it was full and bubbles magically appeared as soon as she entered it. She gasped softly, accompanied by a small chuckle. She looked to the doorway and saw Jareth leaning against its frame.

"I thought every lady liked bubbles…." he cooed, stepping towards her. "Although they do cover up most of a lovely view…"

Randi huffed and sunk lower into the tub, subconsciously pulling bubbles closer. Couldn't she go anywhere without him being right on top of her?

"Go away. I'm taking a bath."

Jareth grinned, eyes shining. He was up to something. She was sure of it.

"I can see that…perhaps I should join you. After all, what is the harm of taking two baths, now is there?"

He snapped his fingers and suddenly he was in the bathtub, next to Randi. She glowered at him and tried to scoot away, but he only wrapped an arm around her, pulling her close to him, nearly in his lap. She struggled against him but realized he was to strong at the moment, for her to get away. Bugger.

"Jareth…"

He arched an eyebrow at her.

"Goblin King?"

He gave her a 'keep going' look.

"…Master?"

He grinned, nodding his head. Oh hell no. She was NOT calling him Master. Not for any reason. A pinch on her bum made her snap back to his attention.

"Master Jareth if you please…no need to be so formal…"

She rolled her eyes. Fine. They would do this his way for now.

"Master Jareth," she said in a syrupy sweet tone. "May I please take my own bath, by myself. I promise to be a good pet if you do…Just this once…please?"

She batted her eyelashes at him, smiling sweetly. If it got her what she wanted then fine. Jareth was surprised at her sudden kindness, but dismissed it for the moment, her game playing in his mind. Two would play at this. He would have his way. Not hers.

"Very well pet…but I expect you to be down for breakfast in half an hour. We have important matters to discuss about your position." he reached over and fondled the collar around her throat, earning a scowl from Randi. He chuckled and pulled back, long elegant fingers brushing across her shoulder, sending shivers through the girl.

Another snap of fingers and he was gone.
