1 Month Later
A month had passed and Sarah and Jareth were still going strong dating. They both had admitted their un-denying love for one another, the sex was more than awesome, (it was like a religion doing it with Jareth), and they both hated being apart which unfortunately happened seeming both were living Underground and Aboveground still. Except Jareth visited Sarah more Aboveground seeming Sarah couldn't transport herself to the Underground having no magic. She still did visit there with Jareth but only in free time, and when Jareth asked her, which wasn't much.
Except things were now starting to get busier and hectic with Sarah's album about to be released, and Jareth was having some problems down Underground in his castle, with goblins getting rowdier by the minute when he was busy trying to find time with Sarah aboveground and with many balls and what not with other royals.
Infact things were starting to really annoy both sides, it seemed that whenever a goblin had a complaint about something, or a child wished away, Jareth had to rush back underground. When Jareth had time to spare, Sarah was called off to another interview, press release or whatever Jasmine believed was vital to attend, but it wasn't as many times as Jareth for he had a whole kingdom to run and his kingly ship to uphold.
Sarah knew that there would be only one way to solve this eventually, for either her to move or him, but how would he? He was King and couldn't just de-nounce his position, it would have to be her, but she was now living her dream-career, and he had said he didn't want to live in a position where his loved one was to always keep traveling aboveground and underground (meaning if she had become his wife) and he hadn't mentioned anything about getting married so Sarah just left it at that.
Many of the balls Jareth had to attend, and Sarah would come along but couldn't stand it with all the fae girls swooning over her beloved. Yeah sure Sarah had many male admirers, but Jareth was a King, and with that amount of power basically every woman underground fell at his feet, especially one particular fae, who Sarah found out all about from Jasmine. What was worse Jareth had to be nice to them all, especially one in particular.
"So….do you remember a fae woman from the Underground, Lily, blonde haired, blue eyed, big boobs…slut…?" Sarah had asked Jasmine in between a photographic shoot for Rolling Stones.
"Oh that bitch yeah, always hanging around Jareth like a bad smell" Jaz had replied with annoyance in her voice. She never got along with Lily herself Underground. "If Jareth wont get rid of her already I swear bag him, you can always have Mr Bowie" Jaz had replied with a sly grin, she didn't hate Jareth herself but given her past with the Goblin rulers, she was abit iffy. As for David, well he was still oblivious to the fact Jareth wasn't gay, he thought the media stuff was just typical paparazzi rumours and had a thing for Sarah.
With Lily though, the last ball Sarah had to attend with Jareth Underground, Lily was there and wouldn't give up the flirting crap. Sarah had just put up with it and was really jealous despite previously asking Jareth about her. He told her Lily wasn't anything to him, just acquaintances, and had to respect her because of her royal parents.
Sarah however hated the bitch, and knew Lily was insanely jealous over her from the daggers Lily always gave her, or winks she would give Sarah when she had been alone with Jareth, hanging onto his arm ever so close if Sarah would be getting a drink or dancing with another.
Unfortunately tonight was another ball, and she had to contend with another Lily.
"Oh where the hell is he" Sarah said walking around her apartment. "I mean is it that hard to show up on time for once, and this is his function?" It was Valentines Day and Jareth had a huge ball in Jareths Castle planned that was customary in the Underground.
"humph…yeah Valentines Day and I haven't even gotten any present yet from him"
Sarah was now pacing madly in her beautiful aboveground ball gown, Versace, that was a flowy peachy pink coloured number that had the feel of butter, strapless that dipped down at her cleavage, and a pair of Dolce&Gabbana strappy heels. Her hair had been done up amazingly that had diamonds strewn through and she wore diamond earrings that were too expensive for words with a matching diamond necklace. She looked like heaven on earth, or Underground seeming that's where she was heading…If her date would show up already.
"And on Valentines day" She screamed sitting down on the couch huffily.
She was in such a rush today with interviews and what not, Jareth told her he would come aboveground to pick her up at 7pm, well it was now 7:45pm.
"Its not fair, I am always early for him and he is never early for me…" Sarah was right, thinking of the numerous restaurants and other dates aboveground that Jareth constantly was running late for.
She stood up and walked angrily to the kitchen but was stopped halfway as he poofed infront of her.
"ARGHH" She said nearly tripping backwards and she gave him the evil eye.
Jareth of course, knew she was pissed at him running late.
"Uh uh uh before you go biting my head off here…" Jareth gave her a sly smile, holding his fingers to her lips again, looking her up and down, gods she was gorgeous tonight, he held out a bunch of roses that was behind his back to her. Honestly they were beautiful, the darkest and deepest red she had ever seen, and Sarah couldn't help but lighten her mood and smiled.
"They're beautiful Jareth" She said as she grabbed them and took inhaled their pretty scent, she looked up at him and he pulled her into a passionate kiss.
"Not as beautiful as you my dear…" He said as he pulled her closer in by her waist, moving his hand over her breast which made her jump but then kiss him deeply.
"Ill go put them in some water" Sarah said rushing to the kitchen
"I am a King and a genius one at that" Jareth smirked to himself, thinking about how easy it was for Sarah to forgive him for being late on Valentines Day.
Sarah however, whilst putting the flowers into the water she had filled in the sink, looked inside the bunch, there was a card. "Ohhhh he is sooo sweet!" she said holding the un-opened card to her heart. Then she read it…
To Jareth
Happy Valentines Day !!
Love all the courtiers from Seelie Court
xoxo
"Seelie Courtiers, GRRRRRR" Now Sarah was pissed, for one of those were Lily, and she would be seeing them in a matter of minutes. But she was even more pissed that Jareth gave her HIS valentines day present (in which every year he received thousands of anonymous gifts every year) but that wasn't the point.
Sure Sarah had received flowers and what not from fans and other people in the music industry today, but not from harems, or courtiers or anything like that, although she smirked at the fact David had sent her some flowers, but this was different JARETH GAVE HER ONE OF HIS VALENTINES GIFTS, AND FROM A BITCH SHE HATED NONE THE LESS.
"Are you coming dear, I am afraid if we don't leave now we will be….." he was cut off
Sarah stormed out the kitchen, anger written all over her face again
"I WAS READY AN HOUR AGO…" She puffed loudly clinging to him arm hard, seeming that was how they transported
God what have I done now, Jareth thought to himself, oblivious to the fact she had just found that little note.

What Can I Do- The Corrs

When they arrived at the ball Sarah whipped off her angry face and put on her happy fake face in front of the crowd before them. Jareth knew she was angry at him but let it go for now, and smiled at the passers by, nodding regally and shaking hands of other royal fae nobility.
Sarah thought her functions were packed but when it came to being the girlfriend of the King of the Goblins, you had the whole Underground Fae to contend with. She had to admit though that the place was beautiful, in Valentines Day colours, red and white, satin and silk everywhere, but of course, the hundreds of Fae Courtiers, including a Lily who straight away spotted them, sorry, spotted Jareth and swipped him away from Sarah, getting him to meet with some pretentious couple.
Sarah, not wanting to let this get to her moved to find one of the waiters carrying her ammunition she needed to get through the night, alcohol.
She saw Jareth with Lily all over him but acting like it was all innocent, as the crowd parted. Jareth laughed at something Lily whispered in his ear and seeing Jareth wasn't looking at Sarah, Lily pointedly looked over at her, knowing Sarah had been staring and winked.
"Bitch" Sarah thought as she skulled half of her drink. Then finally Jareth looked over to see Sarah, and mouthed 'come over here' with a hand gesture. Sarah tried to make her way through the crowd but unfortunately everytime she tried a bitchy courtier, or a royal prince would get in her way.
Jareth was looking annoyed and finally sick of it Sarah mouthed back at him…….
'I CANT DO THIS JARETH' she felt tears threatening and left the ballroom, to the gardens outside, she needed to breath where no one was. Luckily she was right as she looked into the lonely but beautiful garden.
"God Sarah don't cry…don't fucking cry" She said to herself holding onto a post that was joined to a beautiful white gazebo.
Then she heard voices and quickly hid behind a large rose bush. It was Jareth and Lily.
"So Jareth, have you talked to Sarah yet about it?" Lily said sickeningly sweetly.
"No, I haven't, she has been so busy I haven't had the time to talk to her how I must spend more time Under ground whilst the new gallery gets built, and with her moods going up and down, happy with me one minute, angry at me the other, its very confusing you know…" Ohhhh Sarah knew this wasn't going to get pretty
"Yes I noticed you two have been a bit rocky with each other in there…but then again she is a mortal Jareth like I told you before.." Lily replied with complete bitchiness.
Sarah had enough. She stepped out of her hiding spot right in front of them eyeing Jareth with tears on her face, not even looking at Lily and ran back into the castle.
"Shit" Jareth said running after her, and leaving an evilly happy Lily smirking and sipping her champagne.
………………………………………………………………………………………………
Jareth caught up with Sarah and grabbed her arm, "Let me GO" Sarah said pulling out of his grasp
"Don't do this here" Jareth answer was
"Don't do WHAT! YOU are the one confiding to that bitch behind my back, this whole friggen time"
"At least Lily listens to me, you wont give me a bloody chance" He puffed back
"I've had enough of this Jareth, I cant DO this anymore, you speak of living up to expectations, well I've LIVED UP AND BEYOND YOURS, I'm sick of seeing you with all those women who desperately want me gone"
"Oh really?" Jareth wouldn't let it show but his heart was breaking "WELL HAVE IT YOUR WAY"
"Take me home RIGHT now" Sarah said in between tears, and grabbed his arm again and like that she was home,
"And for the record Sarah, there has never been any other woman, or never will be, in my heart but you" He said quietly, tears threatening him too, and with that Jareth disappearing before she could say another word.
Sarah crumpled down on the floor and cried her heart out.
