………………………………………………………………………………….
"That asshole" Sarah said slamming the door so hard it nearly fell off the hinges.
"I can't believe I actually let myself get upset over that….over THAT ROYAL PIG"
Sarah flung herself the edge of her bed in the huge bedroom suit that was decked out with everything that screamed dollar signs.
"Who does he think he is coming to me after all this time telling ME who I should be with when he is the male slut" she couldn't stop getting images out her head of these beautiful fae girls
She put a CD on that was to be one of the songs on her album, a song that she wrote and as much as she hated to admit, reminded her of her own feelings towards Jareth, oh god this whole song IS me and Jareth she thought as it started up
Wrong Impression
Callin out Callin out
Haven't wondered
Why I'm always alone when your in my dreams
……………………………………………………………………………..
"Nope I bet he hasn't wondered, for 10 FRIGGEN YEARS" Sarah screamed in between lyrics.
………………………………………………………………………………
Callin out callin out
Haven't wondered
Why your findin it hard just lookin at me
……………………………………………………………………………..
"Yeah he finds it hard looking at me because he knows he is being a jerk off and cant admit it, he is so full of it"
………………………………………………………………………………………
I want you but I want you to understand
I need you I love you
…………………………………………………………………………………
"Oh godddddddddd, I had to put those two words in the lyrics didn't I, need and love…..ok so maybe I feel for him……I DO NOT…….AM NOT …..GOING TO THINK I AM IN LOVE WITH……WITH HIM…..ARHHH …fucker" Sarah wailed hitting the bed post with her fist which backfired in pain "Owwwwww bitch!"
Didn't wanna leave you with the wrong impression
Didn't wanna leave you with my last confession
……………………………………………………………
"Yeah if I did that I wouldn't have Toby back and would probably end up being some Underground Whore for him and his possy"
………………………………………………………….
Yeah
Of love
Why you trying to pull me in the wrong direction
All I wanna do is try to make a connection yeah
Of love
Yeaahh
…………………………………………………………………………
Jareth looked at her from the door now. Sarah didn't hear him come in and he just stayed there watching her. He heard a song playing, and was almost in awe of the voice singing it. Sarah's back was facing him and she was, talking to herself? He didn't realize that it was also Sarah's voice singing.
………………………………………………………………………….
Fallin out fallin out
Have you ever wondered?
If it's ever more than a crazy idea
Fallin out
Fallin out
Have you ever wondered?
What we could have been
If you only let me in
………………………………………………
Sarah had the strange feeling she was being watched and whipped around and saw Jareth standing there looking at her, eyebrows raised.
'oh shit now he is really gong to think Im crazy…..but what do I care what he thinks'
…………………………………………………………..
I want you
But I want you to understand
I miss you I love you
…………………………………………………………………………………
'Great those words just had to come out right at this moment, when HE is staring at me' "What do you want?" Sarah snapped at him
………………………………………………………………………..
Didn't wanna leave you with the wrong impression
Didn't wanna leave you with my last confession
……………………………………………………………………..
Sarah angrily pushed stop on the remote and the song stopped mid-air.
"What was that?" Jareth asked quietly
"What was what?" Sarah shot back
"That music playing…"
Sarah looked at him reluctantly "It's going to be in my album, and possibly my next single"
"It was beautiful," Jareth was in awe at the fact Sarah had such a beautiful voice "Jasmine was right" Jareth pushed himself off the wall and walked over to where Sarah sat.
Sarah couldn't help feeling little butterflies in her stomach as he walked over to her, 'god why does he have to be so damn handsome' she thought to herself
"What….what is beautiful…what is Jaz right about" oh god did that have to come out so stupidly
"Your voice, Sarah" he said now sitting on the bed next to her. "It is beautiful, just like you"
She couldn't help but blush, 'Thank god he doesn't know they are my lyrics too' she thought to herself, as she felt the bed slightly rise when he sat next to her, and she pointedly moved further from him still angry about before.
Sarah then stood up and faced him sitting on the bed still, with her arms crossed
"Listen Jareth, I'm sorry I over-reacted before ok, but I don't understand why you are here now, I mean its been how many years???……… You haven't contacted me or anything….I mean you just show up here for like 2 hours now and have already started telling me who I should be dating, scolding me for not contacting my friends…..when you haven't even tried contacting me yourself…"
She turned to face the window looking at huge remarkable view of the city. "I have a life now, I thought I had escaped the fantasy world I once found myself in, and now I realize its still part of me…I mean Jasmine is a mermaid, I have a goblin King in my apartment….and I don't know what it is you want from me, coming to see me now…Im very confused"
'Oh god Sarah you know you have feelings for him, don't send him away now after all this time' she cringed at the thought in her head
Jareth stood up and walked towards her, taking in all that she said, he wasn't angry at her, he truly loved her, and didnt want to argue anymore, he could see her confusion.
"Sarah, do you remember when we first met?"
"Yes, you scared the shit out of me in my old house…" Well she wasn't really scared, infact she was a lil turned on and had a huge crush on him
"No Sarah, you are wrong there" Sarah looked up at him with confusion written all over her face again
"I am so not wrong, I wished that Toby…" she started but he cut her off
"Sarah, we first met in the park, I was an owl, you were reading to me the Labyrinth"
Sarah thought a moment and remembered slowly, she was young, running over the cobble stoned bridge, recited her lines in front of an….owl, Jareth.
"Yes…… I remember now" Sarah said slowly
"I fell in love with you," he left out the fact he still was
"Yeah I know, 'and what no one knew was that the King of the Goblins had Fallen in love with the girl'" she answered him "But what does that have to do with why you're here now?" Sarah looked at him eye brow raised
"Honestly, still naïve,…I should think that would be obvious Sarah" He said now feeling a little annoyed she wasn't catching on.
"Hey don't get all shitty with me now…" She knew what he was getting at but this was sooo not the way to go about it
"Im Not 'shitty' with you, gods Sarah cant we just talk like two normal…beings"
"Fine, so state the obvious?" She was not about to ask if he loved her still, no way, if he was going to tell her then he could say it himself without help from her
"Well obviously first I want to apologize" He looked at Sarah who was frowning before but now she looked a bit more accepting
Perhaps Jasmine was right, to apologize
Sarah opened her mouth to say something and then he quickly moved up and put his fingers on her lips. "Please don't say anything just yet" and she looked pissed again but shut up
"I am sorry for how I acted before, it was wrong of me to upset you like I did, all I wanted to do was to come and see you again, and, well…"Oh god, he hated admitting he was jealous over that David Bowie character, he had to think of something else to say,
"I saw your music clip in a crystal underground with Hoggle, Sir Didymus and Ludo, before that we had been eating lunch together"
"Pardon me?" Sarah was shocked, were her friends 'friends' with Jareth? What was going on
"I was having lunch with your friends, they happen to be my friends too now Sarah." Sarah looked at him questioningly but let him continue
"After you defeated the Labyrinth I changed a lot in myself, and if you give me a chance you would see that…but first let me explain the rest" He led her over to a small couch that was near the large window to sit down and she did.
"So we were all sitting there after we had finished our meal, all thinking about you, and decided to look upon you, and for some reason my crystal showed me your video clip, the one that looks awfully like the ball we attended…"
Sarah looked stunned and then looked away, letting Jareth hear a muffled 'f..uck'.
'Shit shit shit, I never thought he would actually see this video clip, I mean god he lives in the underground, me and my damn ideas, I knew it was too risky' she thought to herself, now she was completely embarrassed
But she whipped her head around to face him finally
"Look, don't get all up yourself over this ok, its only familiar because I thought it would match my song, having a masquerade ball, which happens to be nothing….. about you…" she was a baaaaadddddd liar.
Jareth looked at her with one eyebrow thinking 'yeah…right'
"So…so if you're here because of that you will be very disappointed" Oh why was she saying this, damn, she wanted him to stay not go again, she knew why, her pride, groveling to him would mean that he would get the upper hand, something she wasn't ready to offer him
"Well Sarah, I am very disappointed, I thought perhaps maybe you remembered me and did not hate me anymore.." Ok that was definitely a shock, was he giving her the upper hand?
She looked into his eyes, ohhhhh I am sooo going down on this one he was staring back into hers, and he wasn't looking all angry and mean, not like she had expected
"Hate…..wel…hate is a harsh word, I never hated you Jareth" Now is the time when he will either make this or break this, her mind was telling her
"You don't?" Jareth now had the look of hope on his face and Sarah saw it, strange, almost as if he loved…..no he couldnt
"No Jareth, I never hated you, I was pissed at you yeah, very pissed, but I could never hate you," he was moving closer to her, oh ooo, pull yourself together Sarah, it's a man, ok maybe not a man, but he has a penis look at his tights- she looked down then shot her head back up again to face him, Jareth hid a grin as he saw her blush again
'oh god I did not just look at his penis did I??' she was really starting to piss herself off right now at her own actions
"No.." he stopped moving closer and looked at her " I don't hate you Jareth, but you are still leaving out why you are here?" phew, raging hormone situation under control, she noted as he pondered his answer
"I am here because after seeing your video clip, I sort of, well wasn't for sure if it meant you didn't hate me anymore, after all you portrayed something that was uniquely 'us' in it, the ballroom scene and the man who looked so much like me. Hoggle pointed out that you were perhaps trying to tell me something, and to go above ground to see what that was…" she looked down to her hands "So really I am here to maybe see….perhaps you could get to know me again but properly, and see who I really am now…:"
Sarah couldn't believe what she was hearing, the almighty Goblin King who once tried to petrify her was her to reconciliate with her? Not that she had always wanted him to come into her life and what not, she could give it a try….no but how could she be sure this would work out given their past
"Oh yeah…on what terms…" She had to ask, she wanted to say like date? But just couldn't bring herself to it
He just stared at her, moving his hands towards her cheek
"Look Jareth," Sarah said pushing his hand away, but unfortunately loving the feel of him
"You are always complaining about things I do" she shot at him
"I only offer constructive criticism" he said knowingly
"You throw people in the bog if they don't comply"
"I don't throw them in the actual bog, they can get out"
"You have plenty of fae chicks ready to bed you"
"Yes, but unfortunately for them, they are not who I want"
"Ok, well You steal baby brothers!" Sarah seemed to shout a bit louder than she thought
"Only if they are wished away and not wanted" Sarah was going to argue that but she did wish Toby away, she wasn't naïve to deny it now
"Well look at me then, I am way too out spoken when it comes to you" she figured was better re-buttle even if it was putting herself down
"You are just speaking your mind"
"I am best friends with your brothers ex fiance"
"They will get back together soon" Jareth looked at her as if he had an answer for everything
Sarah thought about the last thing to say
"You're the villain and I'm the heroine"
Jareth looked at her with a sly smile that would break hearts
"Well I have a little secret for you Sarah….. the villain is still in love with the heroine.."
She looked at him as he pulled her into an embrace
"But I am not the same girl I was 10 years ago……..I've changed, I am busy all the time with my album coming out soon, you are King of the Goblins, how would we ever find the time……..let alone get along"
"Sarah, we will"
And with that Jareth kissed her passionately and Sarah fully let loose kissing him back.
Well its not every day you find out the King of the Goblins is still in love with you after all these years. Maybe they could sort their differences out once and for all, and so what if things changed, they would get around them wouldn't they?
