Jareth couldn't help it any longer it was killing him having her close but her not knowing how he felt. His lips were on her and his arms were around her waist. Sarah was startled and the she had a feeling like she was emerging to the surface after swimming underwater for a time names, places and events suddenly being released in her head. She gasped for air trying to take it all in. She remembered everything Jareth loved her truly loved her

"Jareth"

Ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss

"What, What is it? Are you ok?"

"I remember. Oh Jareth I'm so sorry I've put you through hell for the last few days. I'm so sorry please forgive me for what I've done I…."

Jareth placed a finger to Sarah's lips instantly silencing her.

"Now if you are quite finished, will you let me speak?"

Sarah just nodded.

"I love you, you hear L..O..V..E.. I'd forgive you almost anything. You have done nothing wrong, apart from being suspicious of me which under the circumstances I fully understand. You have returned to me, which I am forever thankful for even if you don't love me as of yet. As I said we have all the time in the world and I plan to use it."

Jareth claimed her lips again in a very passionate kiss filled with all of his unspoken emotions. Returning the kiss with all with an equal volume of passion Sarah let herself go fully. They only broke to finally come up for air.

"WOW, my dear if your kisses are like that now and your not in love with me I seriously cant wait to feel them when you are, that was amazing."

Sarah was blushing now and being all shy. "I do love you." She whispered.

"Did I just hear you right? Say it again!"

"I love you." she said a lot louder this time her confidence building.

"Oh my darling you have made me the happiest man in the whole world. Worlds if you count the aboveground. You wont regret this I promise you, I will make you happy everything you could ever want I'll give you. We have to get back though, I need to organise a new ball the court still want to meet you, you have made quite the impression on them."

"I'm sorry Jareth I was being stubborn and I was afraid. I ruined it for everyone didn't I?"

"Sarah what have I told you about apologising? There is no need, the perfectly understand why you tried to run. Although they were quite surprised how I handled things. Apparently I've not been acting myself when I'm around you. You've made me soft my dear."

"Good I'm glad you've gone soft although not too soft I love you just the way you are, but I do feel sorry for the poor individuals that get in your way when your angry. I've been there and have first hand experience." Sarah said smirking slightly.

"I wouldn't have let anything harm you, you know that don't you?"

"With hind sight yes, but at the time no. You were very intimidating you know?"

"I was trying to be, that's what you wanted my dear, a villain pure and simple. You needed a baddy and I was him, the evil man that took away your brother so that you could be the heroine and save the day, which you did and in very good time I add."

"I know now you were only living up to my silly expectations, but I don't want to lose that side of Jareth forever I don't think I could deal with a soft Jareth for the rest of my life."

"Oh, is that so? Well my dear I'm sure that can be arranged" Jareth's smirk had taken its well-known place on his face as he pulled Sarah closer to him.

"Oh no what have I done? I must get away." Sarah giggled.

"Sarah you will not defy me again you will be happy I'll make sure of that."

"Oooohhh a life of bliss and fantasy, or a normal mundane everyday life? Hmm tough call."

"Welllll?"

"I'm thinking" Sarah giggled.

Jareth growled. "You have no choice my dear you will be happy."

"Oh, I suppose I can let you win this time."

"I hope that you will come to learn I always win in the end."

"Oh is that right?"

"Yes, come we have to go."

"What if I don't want to?"

"Sorry no choice, your still bound to me so where I go you go."

"Oh alright, lead the way handsome."

"Sure thing my love."

They vanished back to the castle leaving glitter in their trail.
