Chapter Nine: Back to the... ... Library!
Sitting on Sarah's bed after Sarah's and Jareth's dinner, the two girls were discusing a few things.
"So...? How'd it go?" Dawn asked. She could tell Sarah was mad.
"Okay, I guess..." She told her.
"What happened? You look upset."
"I'm mad at myself. I let myself forget that I was mad at him and we had a conversation, just as if we'd been friends our whole lives!"
"So...? What's so bad about that?"
"He'll think that I got over it! That I'm not mad at him anymore!"
"Okay... Well let him think what he wants... But what do you think?" She asked curiously.
Sarah didn't understand. "What?"
"Do you want to be friends with him?"
"NO! No way! Never in my past, present or future!" She objected.
"Okay... If you feel so strongly about it."
"I do..."
"Okay... So... What'd you talk about?"
"Uh... The people I've met and how I like it here..."
"How do you like it here?" She asked solemnly.
"I like it here. A lot. Despite me only having been here for a few days so far. It feels like there's something calling to me here. Willing me to not fight. To want to stay."
"You have been a lot more calm than Jareth had told us you'd be about things...No offense." She concluded.
"I just don't know anymore. It feels like I'm looking at all of this through a veil. Like it's not me who's seeing this all. It feels like a dream."
"It probably just seems that way because you're adjusting to a new atmosphere. A new place. It probably feels all wierd right now."
"Yeah." Sarah agreed.
"So...? What do you want to do?"
"I don't know."
"Let's go to the library or something... I don't have anything to do but attend to you for the rest of this week."
"Oh. Alright."
So, Sarah grabbed a notebook and a mechanical pencil (incase she need to write something down, like a book tittle or some info. she found in a book.) and they left.
Sarah hoped that Aidan wouldn't show up like he did last time. Sarah liked him and all, but it would be kind of awkward if Dawn was there too.
"Oh!" Just as Dawn opened the door, with Sarah standing behind her, Mai was standing infront of it, ready to knock.
"Hi..." Sarah said.
"Hello Sarah.
"Hey, Mai. We were just leaving. "
"Yeah... I noticed. Where are you going?"
"The library. Wanna come with?"
"Sure."' She said and turned around and walked the dirrection she had just come from.
"So... Why were you coming to my room?"
"Oh... I just had a question for you. It's really rather silly..."
"What...?"
"Well, Jareth wants to know whether or not you like the colors, view, decorations, and area, of your room... I guess I've been nominated as messenger for the day."
"Well, I'm pretty sure I like my oom just fine how it is... but I haven't really checked out the veiw yet." Sarah said.
"Oh! You should! I used to have that room as one of my own..." Mai said. "I had, well have, many of them. The veiw is marvelous."
"I'll check that out when we get back." Sarah said, as they arrived at the library door and Mai opened it for them. It was actually an odd picture. Mai, as short as she was, opening the door for everyone else. It just looked funny to Sarah.
"Thanks" Sarah and Dawn said together.
"So... What're you two here for?"
"To ease our boredness." Dawn told her.
"Oh..."
They walked to a section labled, 'The Underground' And walked down that aisle of bookshelves. There were a lot of books. Dawn figured that maybe Sarah would be interested in something and she would want to read up on it.
"Hey! I met some of them!" Sarah exclaimed as she saw a book on Fireys.
"Yup... They're pretty odd creatures."
"Pretty dangerous if you ask me."
"Yeah... That too."
"And I met the junk lady! They even have a book on her! And Ludo too...! Oh!!! And Hoggle!!!"
"You miss them, don't you?" Dawn asked.
"Yes... I do..."
"We'll have it arranged for you to visit them..."
"Really? You'd do that? For me?"
"Of course Sarah!" Mai said.
"We're your friends! Are we not?"
"Yes you are... Your, the both of you, my friends." She sighed. She had more friends here then she had really ever had at home. Almost all of the friends she'd ever made, were here.
"Thank you. You guys..." Sarah sighed again.
They spent the rest of the night in the library. It was very late when they had finaly left. They had lost track of time, and were having a lot of fun together, talking and just making fun of odd titled books. When they finaly went back to Sarah's room, they all three collapsed onto her bed and fell asleep instanly.
Sarah wasn't mad because of the small amount of space she had on the bed. She was glad that there were other people there with her for once.
