Field Trip of Amazeing Proportions Chapter 2: Are We There Yet?
Classes wound down on the last day of school. Some people were crying, others cheering as they counted down the seconds until school was over. Lindsey sat at her desk, nervously twiddling her thumbs as she waited. Ms. Williams had said that they would talk after school that day. Despite her calm exterior, inside she felt as if she had fireworks blasting in her stomach. It wasn't an uncomfortable feeling, just one she wanted to rectify as soon as possible. She was going to meet Jareth, Goblin King, and ruler of the Labyrinth!
Perhaps it was because she was so happy that she didn't notice that the bell had rung until all the students had rushed out of the room. Only then did she pack away her book and go to the front of the classroom. Ms. Williams was packing away some more of the bulletin board in a box. Lindsey joined her and with their joint effort, the room was completely packed in no time. Once all the boxes were taped up and stacked against the wall, Sarah turned her attention to the girl who had done so well these past weeks, all because of a promise.
"Are we going now? My parents know I won't be home for a few days, they think I'm going to a friends." Lindsey asked, basically jumping up and down in excitement.
"Calm down a moment." Sarah answered laughing. "Jareth wanted to meet you before you came to the Labyrinth."
Lindsey's jaw dropped and her eyes became as big as saucers. "The Gob- Goblin King wants-wants to meet me?" She stuttered and threw her hands over her mouth. "OH MY GOD!!!!!" She screamed and began to laugh and clap her hands. Sarah laughed watching the excitement of the girl before her.
"Shiesh Sarah, I didn't realize she'd be that excited my dear." Jareth whispered, as he appeared in the room behind Sarah.
"I didn't realize either." Sarah replied with a smile on her face.
Lindsey had just then realized that she and Sarah were no longer alone in the classroom. Behind Ms. Williams was the most stunningly (handsome doesn't fit.hot isn't quite right.hmm) lets just say he was the most stunning man that she had ever set her eyes on. How'd he get in here? She wondered silently. Then her hand went to her mouth and she heard the gears in her head ticking another problem away. It was HIM.
"It's-you're-oh my god!" Lindsey knew she was smiling stupidly, but she didn't care. One look at those legs wrapped in tight as anything pants, and any reasonable girl would be smiling stupidly. He looked just as the movie had portrayed him. Even better than the movie, because this was real!
"Lindsey, I would like you to meet Jareth, Goblin King, and master of the Labyrinth." Sarah said quite calmly considering her student's reaction to her husband. "Jareth, this is Lindsey, sports fanatic and dreamer extraordinare."
"It's a pleasure to meet you Lindsey." Jareth answered and bent to kiss the petrified one's hand. He winked at his wife.
"The honor is mine." Lindsey replied in a soft voice. When Jareth let go of her hand, she grabbed onto her wrist with the other and stared at it like it was some holy relic. She mouthed the words 'I'm never washing this hand again' and they both laughed.
"Sarah has been telling me of your wish to have permission to visit." Jareth began, circling her slowly as he tried to calculate just how much power he would need to transport all of them back to the Labyrinth.
"YES! It's one of my dearest wishes in the world." Lindsey replied standing still to his appraisal. Sarah had to smile. Jareth was being mean holding her in suspense like this.
"Then you know about the punishment for telling anyone about it?" Jareth asked. Sarah hid her smile behind her hand as she watched him play. He was having entirely too much fun although it was quite entertaining. She placed her hand on his shoulder causing him to turn in her direction. When he saw the look in her eyes, he stopped-at least for a little while.
"What punishment?" Lindsey asked, fear inching its way into her eyes.
"Your freedom will be forfeit of course- you'll become a goblin and you'll have to remain in my kingdom forever serving me." Jareth stood with his arms crossed in front of her, an imposing figure, despite the small smile tugging at a corner of his mouth.
"You'd do that?" Lindsey asked quietly. Jareth nodded and looked at her. "THEN I WANT TO TELL EVERYONE!!!!!!!!!!" Lindsey jumped at Jareth and hugged him tightly. That was it, it was too much, Sarah burst out laughing as she watched the Goblin King squirm in the teenager's arms.
"All right! LET GO!" Jareth bellowed and watched horrified as a fat woman entered the room.
"Sarah, I just wanted-oh, I didn't know you had visitors." The woman droned.
"No problem Mrs. Clide." Sarah quickly stepped up to the woman. "What do you need?"
"I was just coming to say have a good summer." Mrs. Clide answered. "Child, the buses have left twenty minutes ago, shouldn't you be down at the office?"
"It's all right Mrs. Clide." Lindsey replied. God how she hated that woman, too stuck in others business to bother with her own. "I'm getting a ride home with my big brother. Right Jeremy?" She looked over her shoulder at the Goblin King who nodded. "I was just checking up on the summer reading list that Ms. Williams gave me."
"Right." Mrs. Clide looked as if she suspected something and opened her mouth, but thought better of her rude comment on the attire of her 'brother'. She didn't feel like worrying about school code, when the year was already out. "Well, have a nice summer Sarah." The woman left and Jareth breathed a sigh of relief.
"Take us home Jareth before anything else happens." Sarah pleaded. Jareth nodded and the next thing Lindsey knew was that she was standing at the beginning of the Labyrinth.
"Welcome to my world Lindsey." Jareth said wrapping his arm around his wife's waist.
All right guys-this is the end of the next chapter. Thank you for all the reviews! I hope you like where I'm heading. I've been asked to explain how in the world Sarah and Jareth got together, and I will- I mean to at least- just how exactly is the question. I'll think of something. As before, please leave a message with the lipstick and cobblestone provided and I'll check often to make sure that the little gnome thingies don't steal them. What are those things anyway? The next chapter I'll upload when I have-13 reviews. Thanks again for those who reviewed even if they used sneaky tactics like "cute hamster eyes".
