A/N- Thanks for the reviews! I appreciate it very much. :3

Double Date

Even though she agreed to be Jareth's girlfriend for one night, Sarah wished that it could last forever. Her family seemed happy that she was finally in a relationship; they were getting worried that she may never find someone. Everyone even seemed to take an instant liking to Jareth and his charming personality. Karen kept gushing about them all night and Toby wasn't surprised at all. He always thought that they were secretly a couple.

By time they got home, Sarah was half awake and half asleep. Jareth helped her get into bed. "Night Jareth." Sarah said groggily as she pulled up the covers. "Night precious." Jareth replied as he lightly kissed her forehead before turning off the lights and poofing away in a cloud of glitter.


"I'm just so…so nervous!" Macy said on the other line. Sarah held the phone between her cheek and shoulder while she looked through some magazines and sat on the couch. She had been meaning to read some of them and now seemed like a good time. "Don't be, you've known him for some time now. It's not like it's a blind date." Sarah advised as she found a fashion magazine and leaned back in her seat.

"I know but still…" Macy sighed. "Just be cool about it. Be yourself and you'll be fine." Sarah flipped through some pages. "That's easy for you to say because you don't even like him. Besides, it was easy for me to be myself at the coffee shop because you were there…hey, I just thought of something…" Macy said thoughtfully. Sarah stopped flipping through the magazine and quickly realized what her friend was getting at. "Oh, no, I don't think that's…"

"We can make it a double date!" Macy squealed as she cut off Sarah. "Think about it", she continued, "You can bring Jerry and I would have Dylan. I'll be more comfortable if you were there and what better way than a double date!"

"Okay, first off, it's Jareth", Sarah said, "and second, I don't think it's a good idea. Dylan wants to go out with you; not you, me, and Jareth…"

"Please? Pretty please?" Macy whined. "Besides, you owe me." Sarah thought about it. Back in junior year she was bullied by a boy. She remembered the name calling and one time when she missed class because she couldn't take it anymore. She couldn't find it in herself to tell her parents but Macy got it out of her. Not long after that, Macy gave that boy a broken nose. From that moment on that boy was forever known as 'the guy that got beat up by a girl' and had to move because of the teasing.

Sarah remembered her telling Macy that she owed her and she supposed that now was the time. Sarah sighed. "Okay fine", she answered, "where and when?" Macy excitedly clapped her hands and jumped up and down on the other end. "Yay! We're going to that little French café that's next to the theater. I'm meeting Dylan at twelve." "Okay, I'll call Jareth and see if he wants to go." Sarah said as Jareth heard his name and poofed next to her on the couch. "Thanks Sarah! See you in a bit!" Macy said as she hung up the phone.

"Now where are we going?" Jareth asked. Sarah tossed the phone onto the table that was in front of the couch. "We have a double date with Macy and Dylan at twelve." Jareth raised an eyebrow. "Double date? Does this mean…?"

"That I have to hurry? Yes. It's almost eleven and we still have to get to town. I'll be real quick, okay?" Sarah said flustered as she hurried off to get ready.


Dylan and Macy met each other outside of the restaurant just minutes before Sarah and Jareth came up to them arm in arm; bundled together against the cold, winter wind. "Sarah!" Macy said happily as she hugged her friend. "This must be…"

"Jareth, my boyfriend. Jareth, this is Macy." Sarah quickly interrupted as she introduced the two. Jareth was surprised how natural Sarah sounded when she said boyfriend; he even noticed a genuine smile on her face. Meanwhile, Sarah felt completely relaxed. She was going to lunch with two of her best friends and Jareth…her boyfriend? Sarah mentally gave a shrug at the thought of them as a couple while her heart yelled "About damn time!" After an awkward hello between Dylan and Jareth, the group went inside.

They were seated near the window and quickly ordered lunch. "Well, this is nice." Macy said after their waiter left; trying to start the conversation. "I haven't been here in a long time." Sarah added as she looked around. "The previous owners sold it a few years ago. They completely remodeled it", Dylan educated, "This paint use to be cream but now it's white." The group nodded as they thought of something to say.

"So how did you two meet?" Macy asked as she looked at Sarah and Jareth sitting together across the table. "Uh, well…" Sarah started; what was she suppose to say? That he kidnapped her baby brother long ago and after she defeated the labyrinth they started to become good friends?

"Art show." Jareth quickly said as he remembered Sarah's love for drawing. Macy nodded her head. "Aww, that's sweet. Sarah just loves to paint and everything." "I remember her drawing masterpieces in class all the time." Dylan added. "You also drew those creatures…what were they again…?" Macy asked Sarah as she tried to remember. "Goblins?" Sarah said as she noticed Jareth giving her a raised eyebrow.

Macy snapped her fingers. "Yeah, that's it! There was also this other character that you drew sometimes though. He had these tight pants and a cape and this huge spiky hair…" Macy put her hands up to the side of her head to show how big the hair was. "Yeah I remember that guy." Dylan said as the memory came to him. "Really? That sounds like a rather interesting character, doesn't it?" Jareth mused as he turned to Sarah. She could feel her cheeks blush as Jareth gave her a mischievous smile.

"What did she call him again?" Dylan turned to Macy. "Greg the king or something like that?" Macy wondered out loud. Jareth gave a lighthearted laugh. "Greg the king?" Dylan nodded. "I just remember that there were the initials GK." Sarah could really feel her cheeks burn now with embarrassment.

"Here you go. Your food is comin' right up." said the waitress as she set some glasses of water on the table and then left. "Anyway, that was back in high school." Sarah concluded as she took a sip of her water. Macy turned to Jareth. "And where did you go to school?"

Jareth put down his glass. "Actually I was homeschooled." "That's interesting." Dylan said as he stirred the water in his glass with a straw. "And where were you homeschooled? I mean, where did you live?" Macy asked. Sarah was curious to see what lie Jareth would come up with this time.

"England." he simply replied. Dylan and Macy seemed impressed. "You lived in England? That's really cool. What's it like there?" Dylan asked with interest. Jareth smiled. "Well it snows around this time of year…"

The waitress came back with their orders just as Jareth was going to give them more tidbits of information about England. The group was famished and ate their lunch quickly. While they waited for the check they talked about their plans for Christmas and old holiday traditions that their families do. After splitting the check, the group walked back out into the cold; Dylan and Macy were arm in arm while Jareth and Sarah did the same.

"Well that was fun; we should all get together again soon!" Macy said they were saying goodbye. "Yeah, so where are you guys going now?" Sarah asked. Dylan smiled and placed his arm around Macy. "We're actually going to the movies." Macy looked surprised. "Really?! I mean, ahem, yeah, we're going to the movies." Sarah smiled; at least Dylan was over her and finally moved on. "And what about you two?" Dylan asked.

"Just hanging out. I think today's game night." Jareth said. Sarah nodded. "Yeah, I think Toby's coming over." Macy hugged Sarah. "You guys have fun", she turned to Jareth, "and take care of Sarah, okay?" Jareth chuckled. "Don't worry about it." The group said their goodbyes as Jareth and Sarah watched their friends walk off arm in arm.

A cold breeze made Sarah shiver as it hit her face. "We should get inside." Jareth said as he took her hand. "Good idea. I'll make the hot cocoa when we get home." Sarah agreed as they walked back to the apartment hand in hand.

A/N- And that's it between Dylan and Macy. Hope I tied up their ending okay. The last two chapters should be focused on Jareth and Sarah again. Find out what happens tomorrow and please review! :)
