Author's Notes: I'm sorry if the last chapter confused you. Let me explain, Demetria sent the dream to Sarah, and in the dream Demetria was the owl who was flying towards her, so Sarah would wake up. David Bowie was another one of Demetria's reminders of Jareth. So, it's all part of Demetria's plan. Savvy?
Disclaimer: Aw, shucks. Do I have to?
Jareth was sitting with his leg propped on the side of the throne, once
again, lightly tapping his riding crop on the side of his boot. "Sing us a
song!" The goblins screeched. Jareth glared daggers at all of them. " What
babe?" The stupid goblin asked. All of the others tackled him and slapped
duct tape over his mouth. Jareth sighed tiredly. "Jareth....." He heard. That
sweet voice that sounded of a thousand breezes. God, that voice, it made
him shudder. "Where'd she learn to do that?" Jareth asked himself huskily.
He quickly shook himself and jumped up, stalking off towards her bedroom
hurriedly. He carefully opened the door to see Sarah inside tossing and
jerking. He ran over to her and pushed down on her shoulders, repeatedly
yelling her name. Sarah woke up with a start, breathing heavily and sweating.
"Love, it's all right, it was just a nightmare." Jareth soothed Sarah, rubbing
her back. He climbed on the bed and wiped her forehead with a hanky, she
was still a bit frightened. "You sick son of a bitch." She hissed, glaring at
him. "What?" Jareth asked. " You were spying on me in my dreams! How
could you, they are mine and it's my right to have my own privacy!" Sarah
accused, pushing him. "Sarah. Calm down." He warned. She kicked at him
and his eyes burned with anger. He swiftly rolled on top of her and pinned
her arms down at her sides. "Get off of me!" she yelled. "Sarah!" Jareth
snapped. She fell silent and looked at him silently. "I suggest that you calm
down before you try my temper too much." Jareth warned, an inch from her
face. "You had no right." Sarah said softly. "I didn't do anything." Jareth
told her with a look of amusement in his eyes. "But," Sarah began. "I've
warned you. I go by my word and I said I have done nothing. Don't piss me
off, or the consequences will be severe." He told her menacingly, putting on
a blank mask with no emotion showing through. It scared her a bit. How
does he hide his emotions like a mannequin, blank and distant? She
shuddered. "Sarah, do not assume that I am the cause of everything strange
or evil in your life. I won't tolerate it." Jareth finished, staring at her for a
response, which none came. She gave him a look of question. "Why do you
even care for me? I'm just human, a mortal girl, and you torment me. I
wanted to live a normal life, with Toby and my friends. I wanted to have time
to do everything that I wanted, but you've stolen all of my chances away.
Why?" She asked him, her eyes watery. Jareth frowned and looked into her
eyes. "Sarah, I had offered you your dreams. You could've had anything that
you wanted, done everything you desired, and I would've loved you. They
don't except you up there. I've been watching, they treat you like a rag doll,
playing with your emotions and laughing when you break. I cannot
understand why you yearn to go back to a place you don't belong." He said,
looking at her with sorrow and some hidden emotions. "It's not that simple,
Goblin King. When you are born in a place and raised there, you become
used to the stuff that happens, and you just absorb the pain and hurt, and
you cry, scream, and choke day after day and it gets rid of the pain. The
truth hurts like hell, but you get used to the burning anger inside you, and it's
just a part of you. You where raised as royalty and are used to the ways of
the Underground, having everything you want, doing whatever you please,
and ruling over everything in your kingdom. You have everything that you
want, but I have to work for it, just like every other human does. Don't get
me wrong, it would be great to have everything that I want, but then what
would be left to dream about, to look forward to, to wonder if you will ever
be able to have it? I would have nothing to live for, because everything that I
strived to get to would already be there." Sarah said, letting a single tear slip
from her emerald eye. "Your wrong." Jareth said, looking deeper into her
eyes. "I do not have everything that I want.." Jareth continued. Sarah looked
at him confusedly. "I...I don't have you." he finished, looking at her with
sorrow.
