A/N: I would like to dedicate this chapter to goblingurl, who has been with me from the

beginning. Thank you! You've keep me going!!!

Anyway, on to the story!

******************************************************************************

"One, two, Three." Staring at Jareth from across the table Sarah bit into the piece of

peach that she had been given, trusting it since Jareth too had taken a large bite. Closing her eyes,

Sarah savored the burst of flavor in her mouth from the first bite of peach she had in five years.

After the Labyrinth she had been so scared of what might happen if she ate a peach that just to

think about it made her sick. Then after a while it had become habit.

"Enjoying yourself my dear?" Jareth's voice cut into the silence, forcing Sarah to open her

eyes and stared defiantly into his mismatch ones.

"Sarah, are ya' okay? He didn' do anythin' to it, did he?" the nearly forgotten Hoggle

asked, concern in his voice.

"No Hog bowl, I didn't do anything to it. It is a normal peach. As normal as any other

peach from the Underground. Now, go. You are no longer needed." Jareth said with anger plain

in his voice as the dwarf turned to go back to where he had come from.. He didn't appreciate

being accused of trying to kill Sarah.

Glaring at Jareth for being so rude to Hoggle, Sarah stood.

"If you don't mind, I'd like to go home now." She said, looking at the King of Goblins

with hate in her eyes.

"As you wish my dear." Jareth said standing as well. Then walking over to where Sarah

stood, he leaned down and before she was able to move, kissed her soundly. Startled, Sarah had

no time to react except on instinct. And her instincts told her to kiss back, so she did.

Pulling back Jareth smiled to see her still in shock. Taking advantage of the situation, he

quickly transported Sarah back to her apartment before she had a chance to kill him..

Sarah growled in frustration when she opened her eyes and realized that she was back in

the kitchen of her apartment. ~I'll kill that arrogant jerk when I get my hands on him. I can't

believe his nerve! I will get him for this.~

Sighing she realized that there was nothing she could do at this time except for relax a bit.

Walking down the hallway to her bathroom, she decided a hot bubble bath would help sooth her

nerves, and help her think. She turned on the water and added the bubble liquid, letting the tub fill

with water and bubbles as she went back to her room and got the clothes she would wear when

she got out. Going back into the bathroom, she turned off the water, undressed, and slipped into

the scalding water. Closing her eyes she leaned back, feeling her muscles lose some of the tension

they had accumulate from a long day. Letting her mind slip back throughout the day, her mind

inevitable wandered to the kiss. With her eyes still closed she felt a phantom version of the kiss

on her lips, enjoying it as much as she had when she first felt it. Her mind then wandered on to

how it would have felt to have his hands caressing her back, or holding her tight.

Sitting up she was startled at where her mind had taken her. It was almost as if she had

enjoyed the kiss. ~But I can't have. That was Jareth who was kissing me. I mean he's not just

another college guy looking for some girl he can have a one night stand with. He's the king of the

GOBLINS for goodness sake! And don't forget he stole Toby.~

~Yes, but only because you wished him away. I never would have taken him if you hadn't

asked.~ Countered a small voice in her mind.

~I never expected for it to really work, other wise I never would have said it! I love Toby

too much to have him go forever. Now Karen on the other hand...~ Sarah laughed at the image

that entered her brain at that thought. ~Karen would never last a second in the Labyrinth. She

would give up as soon as a faerie bit her. She's to idealistic to even accept the possibility of

goblins let alone the king of them, which is really too bad. I would love to introduce her to him.~

Standing, she smiled to herself at the image of her step mother meeting the king of

goblins. Running the towel over her wet body, she quickly got dressed in a light blue sun dress

that doubled as a nightgown. Walking into her living room, she sat down in her chase lounge.

Seeing her copy of Labyrinth on the end table next to her, she picked it up, and continued to read

from where she had left off.

Okay, this is the real ending of this chapter. Sorry it took me so long to write. See, I was kinda

going through a time of writer's block *cringes at the memory*.

Second, the book of Laby that Sarah is reading isn't just a different from of her story. It's the

story of a goblin who gets turned into a human. Completely different from the plot of the movie.

If you all would like, I can write it for you after I get done with this and "Careless Whispers."

Vote by reviewing.

Speaking of C.W., I am planning on up putting an new chapter up for that soon.

If you would ever like to read any of my ff's, but can't go to ff.net for any reason, you can go to

my web sites, fantasyrules.tk I'll be putting them up soon.

Anyway, so ya'. I think that's it. Thanks for reading, and stay tuned!
