Shirrel and Adol

"She was wearing.WHAT!?!?!?!?!" Jareth and Adol were now in the throne room talking about Jareth's disaster of an apology. And Jareth just got to the part about what she was wearing when she answered the bedroom door. Adol could hardly believe it.

"You got to see her wear.nevermind." Adol trailed off deciding not to continue upon seeing the look Jareth was giving him. After a moment Adol slipped his casual mask over his face propping his feet on Jareth's desk before Jareth knocked them off lightly with one graceful movement.

Adol cleared his throat slightly "So.I assume Lady Shirrel will be joining us for dinner?" He looked at Jareth through his casual mask that gave everything away to Jareth including his hopefulness.

Jareth smirked slightly "Yes, I should think so.would YOU like to make sure yourself.." Adol had barely opened his mouth before Jareth continued "That's what I thought, she's in the main guest room on this floor.well" Adol looked at him blankly and Jareth sighed "Really Adol, you've no hope if your going to be this dense.go check on her to make sure she will be attending dinner!" Adol snapped into action quickly "You think she'll still be wearing.nevermind." And with the he walked swiftly down the hall.

Shirrel has just finished changing into one of the gowns Jareth had teleported to his castle for her. It was her favorite one because she knew she looked best in it. It was a rich red with a pattern of green thorned vines seeming to grow all over the dress with roses of a slightly deeper red spouting out of them here and there.

Her gown ruffled a bit as she turned to look at the door when she heard the knocking. She moved to the door and hesitated with her hand on the doorknob. She leaned forward a bit and called softly to the other side "Who is it?"

A voice on the other side of the door replied "It's the love of your life of course!" She opened the door and saw Adol, "Oh, it's you" she said with a wry smile. "Oh really, thats not what you said last time I saw you-" she interupted him still smiling "That was a long time ago, and I believe the last time I saw you I was ending our courtship" she smiles overly sweetly at him as he replies "Oooh, could we keep it above the belt please? Yes, it is true you were ending the courtship, but there's no accounting for taste!"

Shirrel rolled her eyes at him a moment "Is there a reason you knocked on my door or what?" He looked at her blankly for a moment then nodded quickly "Oh yes, Jareth and I wish to know if you will be dining with us tonight." She laughs softly at his sudden properness "Yes Adol, I shall."

He let himself smilke braodly then slipped his useless mask over his face again, "Good, His Majesty will be very pleased to hear it" She looked at hiim a moment "Only His Majesty?" He cleared his throat almost nervously and bowed to her "I shall see you at dinner then" With that he walked away and Shirrel closed the door with a shake of her head and a smile.
