AN: Here is the next chapter. Please r/r even if you don't like it.

Jareth got up the next morning, snapped, and was immediately dressed and bathed. He looked down at Sarah laying naked with nothing but a sheet to cover her.

"My, my Sarah. I know I took your innocence, but you don't know how many others I have taken also." he whispered under his breath. "You have no idea what you have gotten yourself into. You don't know I don't love you. But I know you love me." He laughed evilly under his breath, trying not to wake Sarah up. He looked at Sarah before he left.

As Sarah woke up 20 minutes after he left, she noticed a letter on the pillow Jareth was using. She read it to herself.

Sarah,
I had a great night last night, but sadly I have to tend to my kingly duties. I have a council meeting today. I will not be back tonight because it is too far for me to travel for one night.
With Love,
Jareth

Oddly, she never remembered him being a council. "Oh well," she figured, "I guess he is. How can I doubt the man who loves me." She sighed.

She had the best night of her life last night. She had lost her innocence to the man who she loves, as she would always. No matter what happened.

She got up, not wondering about anyone could walk through that door and see her in her full nakedness. She decided to go take a shower. She walked into the neighboring bath room.

After she had finished, she got dressed and decided to investigate the castle some more. She already seen one room. She decided to go and look around more. She walked around the halls until she found a room to her liking.

A library. There were an endless number of red books with gold plated letters on the binding. There were books written in many different languages. She did not have to open them to find that out. She could tell by the letters and symbols.

She looked around the library at the many books until she found some she remembered. She grabbed some of her favorite books. "Alice in Wonderland" "Through the Looking Glass" and many more.

They reminded her of her home. They reminded her of Toby. She used to sit up with him and read him fairy tales until their parents got home from their date on Fridays.
She shook off the feeling of home and realized she was with the person she loved. She found a table and read for what seemed to be hours. She got lost in her fairy tale world again for what seemed to be the hundredth time.

She read until she got hungry. Luckily she came across a kitchen on her way to find something to do and she decided to find her way back to it, hoping she remembered. She also hoped there might be some actually be some human food or at least not any peaches. She laughed at the thought. She started to feel less hungry and she started to feel lonely. She needed her lover. She missed Jareth.

"But" she realized, "he is gone. He will not be back until tomorrow morning, hopefully." She figured she could trust him when he was gone because they were in love and he would never cheat on someone he loved. "He wouldn't lie. Not to me."

As she quit worrying, she got hungry again. She decided to go back through the castle to try to find the kitchen. She wished she would have left something to help her find her way back. She laughed again. This was too much like her journey two nights ago. God, it seemed longer than two nights.

She wondered if her parents missed her. Probably not. She thought, of all the times they got in an argument or they were mean to her; they never apologized. They were probably out on a date again, no doubt, not thinking about her.

***
Karen and Michael woke up that morning to realize Sarah was gone. They didn't remember her ever going to spend the night at a friend's house. They decided to call all of her friends' parents to try and find out where she went. They were beginning to worry about her.

"Michael, do you remember Sarah going to a friend's house last night?"

"No. I don't remember her leaving. I'll go check in her room again," Michael said.

"This is not good, Michael. She knows not to leave without telling us where she is going. Yes. Go check in her room. She might have been somewhere else in the house when I went to wake her up for church."

They were starting to worry because Sarah didn't usually miss church. She loved to go to church. The only times she missed church was when she was sick. She regretted it even then.
