Hoggle walked away from the room he had just been talking to the Goblin
King in. His thoughts were everywhere and what Jareth had said was still
ringing in his head, but he couldn't help but not believe him. He HAD said
that he truly loved Sarah, but how could Hoggle be sure of this? The Goblin
King never lied directly. but he DID have a nasty habit of telling a half
truths or only saying enough to shut somebody up.
But love was a hard thing to tell a half truth about. Either you do, or you don't. Either you're lying or you're not. Still, Hoggle didn't trust Jareth.
@}~`~
Jareth still wasn't having any luck with his search.
@}~`~
"A contest?"
"Yup. An writing contest." Sarah had a look on her face that basically said Ooookkkkayyyyy, and Sami just smiled. "I figured you'd love the idea, so I signed you up!"
"WHAT?"
"And, if you win you'll get published."
Sarah didn't know what to say. There really wasn't anything she COULD say. It was a pretty nice gesture, but at the same time she didn't have any time to write a story in. She said something that resembled a "Thank you" and started to leave, folding up the green paper and sticking it into her pocked as she went.
"Hello Sarah" Jareth was standing outside the library, ready to great Sarah as she left.
"Hi. You need anything?" He looked different. She couldn't tell if it was that he wasn't dressed in his normal spandex and poofy shirt, or that the over abundance of make-up was missing, but he looked different. It was probably because he looked so much the same as everyone else.
"Nope." He followed her down the steps. "You going home?"
"Yea."
"Can I carry your bag for you?" She looked over at him suspiciously, but didn't see any harm in it and swung her book bag to him.
They walked a few minuets in silence, until Sarah stopped. "Alright Jareth. Nobody just comes over out of nowhere and offers to carry my books home for no reason. WHAT do you want?"
"I need a reason to do a favor for the girl I love?" Jareth asked, perfectly innocently. His face was saying 'What did I do?'. Sarah was trying to see through that, but she couldn't. He just made no sense.
"Ugh. Fine." They walked the rest of the way home in silence.
@}~`~
"Honey, who walked you home?" Sarah's father was looking out the window at the blondish figure walking away from the house.
"This guy I know." Sarah tried hard to make as little eye contact with her father as possible, hoping that he'd ask few questions.
"Is he in your school? He looks older."
"No. He is." She rummaged through the kitchen cabinet for something to snack on.
"How much older?" Sarah hated that concerned father tone. She was seventeen, and in her mind she didn't need the over protective father figure.
"Uhh. You know, college-ish I guess." 'Crap' Sarah thought. 'There goes my career as an actress.'
"Ish? You guess?" Sarah's father looked at her with a level of skepticism.
"Yea. Dad, don't worry about it. Okay?" Before her father had a chance to respond she grabbed her book bag and rushed up the stairs to her room. She dropped the bag on her floor by her door and jumped onto her bed.
Something shiny was on her floor. "Odd." Sarah got up and picked up a small key, looked at it for a few moments, put it on a chain and wore it as a necklace. "I'll ask Dad if it's his later." Then Sarah sat down at her desk and started her work.

Woo. Finally an update!! Well. Like I said, I've been studying for my midterms like woa, so I haven't gotten much written.but I want to take this time to mention my friend Alina. ^_^ Alina's been a good friend of mine since 5th grade or so.wow, that's almost seven years now.seven years is a really long time!! But anyway, I got her to watch Labyrinth a little while back because I wanted her to read my fic, and she's been reading it an all. Yay. Gotta love Alina. So, a few days ago on the bus ride home I showed her a maze that I drew in history class over the course of four days and told her that she had to start at the center and work her way out. She asked why and I told her it was because Jareth was smoking up. OMFG Alina almost fell off of the seat laughing, and I didn't even think it was that funny. But yea, she gets mentioned in my fanfic for that. 3 In other news, I hope all of you are enjoying my ficcy, review and I may post more often. ^_-, but after midterms end I should get back on the track of posting once a week or so.
