DISCLAIMER: I don't own the Labyrinth, or its characters, only the
situation I'm putting them in now.
Sarah woke late that morning and slowly drove into university.
"Sarah! Honey, how was your weekend?" She looked up as she locked her car to see Tessa, another person bent on becoming a teacher, however her passion for teaching leant more towards science.
"It was. interesting. How was yours?"
Tessa smiled her bright red curls bouncing as the two of them walked toward the lecture theatre.
"Went to that party that was advertised around campus, it was alright. What do you mean by interesting?"
Sarah smiled and brushed her hair out of her face.
"Strange dreams."
Tessa tilted her head, her green eyes squinting at the sun.
"Oh yeah? Flying goats and all that?"
She burst out laughing, she doubted that Jareth would ever have flying goats as part of the dreams he created.
"No, they just included someone I haven't seen for a while, someone from the past."
Tessa looked at her seriously, whenever there was the hint of relationships, or ex-relationships coming into the conversation she was all business. Tessa the relationship expert out on call.
"An ex of your's?"
Sarah smiled and looked down.
"I guess you might say that, only it was kind of one sided."
She nodded as they climbed the steps of the building in which the English lecture theatre was housed.
"And now that you're remembering him?"
Sarah smiled and looked at Tessa.
"I'm remembering things I'd forgotten and finding new things."
The two of them walked down the steps to their usual seats.
"The forgotten man gets a new chance and new feeling? Have you talked to him recently?"
She nodded.
"Saw him on the weekend."
Tessa made another understanding nod.
"You going to make a move?"
Sarah frowned and though back to her dream. The heavy skirts, he wanted to be heard, she would have to agree to what he was offering before she could find out what he was hiding.
"I don't think so, things are very complicated, he wants something."
Tessa sat back and dug her notepad out.
"Money?"
Sarah shook her head, Money wouldn't have even entered Jareth's mind.
"No, but I know he wants something, I can feel it."
Tessa frowned and shrugged.
"Alright, quiet down. Now were going to address fantasy today. Fantasy works, mythology and so on."
Mrs Enery walked in getting straight to the point as per usual. What a coincidence, she though wryly as it began.
"I have a special surprise for you, some of you might think that fantasy works and mythology aren't important to your work or to that of your future students, but it is an area of intense interest, and here to discuss it some more is a guest speaker, a British mythology professor just recently come over from the UK."
Sarah looked up, guest speaker? Mythology? This class was going to be more interesting than she thought.
"May I introduce, Mr. Kyng."
She looked up and there he was. No longer was he garbed in his ruffled shirt, breeches and boots, but rather a refined black suit with his usually wild blonde hair tied back neatly behind him. Oh he was playing dress up, she though angrily.
"Thank you Mrs. Enery, I must say that having the opportunity to come and talk in an American university is quite astounding."
Sarah closed her eyes and looked away, she could feel his gaze on her, she could hear his voice as smooth and incising as ever, blast him!
"I believe I will start this class gently, I don't want you disliking it."
Sarah fumbled with her bag and quickly shoved her books into her bag.
"Sarah, what's wrong?"
Tessa looked at her friend, she was several shades paler, not normal for her usually joyful friend.
"I, I don't feel very well, I'll get notes off you later."
Tessa nodded and patted her hand.
She stood up quickly and began to walk out.
"Have you got something so important, Miss Williams that you must disturb the lecture?"
Mrs. Enery's voice cut through the lecture theatre.
"I'm sorry, I really don't feel well at all."
The female lecturer walked up close and surveyed her students face.
"You do look unusually pale, have you eaten anything today?"
The mothering side of her came out, she couldn't help but try to look after her students.
"No."
Mrs Enery nodded and gave her a small smile.
"Go home and rest up."
Sarah nodded wordlessly and almost fled from the room.
A/N: Hope you like it, I have been meaning to update for a while. Remember, reviewing makes me right faster, quicker, better and I update more often.
