Love is Just a Fantasy
Chapter 21
Sarah sat pacing the gardens trying to sort her thoughts out. She was failing miserably. All she could think about was that kiss. When he had grabbed her and kissed her like that, she thought she had been dreaming. He had kissed her… on his own free will. She sat down on a bench and decided to just talk it out. "OMG! He just asked me to marry him. I have less than one week to decide. What about my family? Ha! What family? All I have is Toby. What about Toby? Will I ever get to see him again? Will he remember me? Do I really want to marry Jareth?!?! Well…actually… I do want to marry him. The question is do I want to under these conditions? I love Toby. Do I really want to give him up if I have to? I guess I should probably go figure out the answers to my questions before I start jumping to conclusions." With that, Sarah got up and began to walk back to the hill where she and Jareth had been talking. As she drew closer, she couldn't help but notice how handsome Jareth was. The way the sun gently bathed his well toned body gave Sarah the chills.
When she got to the top of the hill, she was fully prepared to question Jareth. She had to know how this would affect her family, mainly Toby. She looked down at Jareth and saw he was asleep. She was just about to wake him when something made her stop. Instead of waking him, she just sat down by him. She looked at the sleeping king and just couldn't help but smile. He looked so peaceful sleeping like he was. Sarah reached out and began to play with his hair. As she sat there stroking his hair, she realized something: she was in love with him. She didn't know when it happened, and she really didn't care. She was honestly in love, not some kind of high school love, but the kind you only find in fairy tales.
Sarah suddenly got this overwhelming urge to lean over and kiss the sleeping king. "Where did this come from?" Sarah asked herself. She sat there slightly bewildered. "Should I do it? Is it right? He is asleep…that would be like taking advantage of him…wouldn't it?" She decided that she should probably wake him…how she went about that was entirely up to her…
Sarah leaned over Jareth and lightly kissed him on the forehead. Jareth began to move and then settled back into sleep. Sarah then kissed him on the cheek and watched his reaction. Jareth shook his head and sighed, but still didn't get up. Sarah got a sly look on her face. She leaned over and kissed him on the neck and then left a trail of kisses up to his lips, where she kissed him with as much passion as she could muster.
