Chapter 13
After waiting a whole five minutes Jareth summoned another crystal to see what was happening in Sarah's room. After looking over the room he saw that Hoggle was gone and Sarah was still sleeping soundly. It was plain that Hoggle had decided against awakening her, he was probably scared of Jareth, and that the annoying dwarf had cleared out after seeing that Sarah was alright.
Sarah began to move about restlessly in her sleep and Jareth decided to go check on her.
He arrived in Sarah's room to see her tossing and turning as he had seen her so many other nights previous to her return to the Underground.
"No, please stop, go away..." Sarah was saying softly in her sleep.
"Sarah, love wake up, you're dreaming," Jareth said to her quietly.
Sarah awoke with a start and looked around her. She was a little surprised to see Jareth sitting beside her on the bed, but not altogether upset with him.
Jareth pulled her to him in a quick hug and when he let her go he looked at her questionly.
"Sarah, what were dreaming about?"
"It's nothing. It isn't important right now Jareth," she looked away from him as she answered.
"Sarah, you know you can tell me-"
"Look, right now, I don't want to talk about it. Maybe another time. Please," she looked up at him, her eyes pleading with him to agree.
"Alright Sarah, but if the dreams continue to occur, please talk to me. It might help you get rid of them if you face your fears."
"Sure Jareth, I'll tell you one day. But not now."
"You worry me you know that. I don't like to see you upset."
"Sorry," she looked at him again, "Jareth, can I get some food? I'm starving." Her stomach made itself known at that, as if to punctuate her statement.
Jareth smiled at her and shook his head, while Sarah sat there blushing.
"I will get Meg to bring you something, any preferences?"
"No, nothing really."
"Alright then, I'd best be going now anyway, your food shall arrive soon."
Jareth got up then turned back to Sarah, placing a light kiss on her lips before turning and walking out of the room.
Sarah sat on her bed stunned for a moment before she heard somebody knocking on her door.
"Lady Sarah, may I come in?" Meg's voice called from the other side of the door.
"Sure thing Meg," Sarah called back to her, coming out of her shocked state.
Meg entered the room with a tray of food for Sarah. Sarah smiled up at the other girl as she set down the tray on a small table beside Sarah's bed.
"Thankyou Meg. I'm starving."
"No problem milady."
Sarah gave Meg a stern look as she spoke, "Meg, what have I told you about calling me things like that?" Sarah's act was broken when she smiled at the other girl though.
"Sorry Sarah, just takes me a bit of getting used to," Meg told her as she smiled back.
Sarah gave Meg another friendly smile before she set to work on eating her meal.
A/N: I got lazy with updating. On holidays so I'm up all night and sleeping half the day, yet I still haven't had time to write. Well, when I'm home I do have time but I have no ideas. I didn't know where I wanted to go with this, in fact I still don't, probably never will. Well it's too hot to think right now, but I'll try and update if you want me to. Thanks to those who review and lemme know what you think of this chapter.
