"Sarah?" Jareth brushed her arm with his hand "wake up." She muttered something and turned over. He let out a low chuckle and tapped her on the shoulder. "Wake up or," he paused she wasn't even listening. He moved so that his face was centimeters from hers. "Sarah?" he whispered. She opened her eyes and rolled off the bed, taking the comforter with her.

"Did you have to do that?" she moaned.

"Well you wouldn't wake up," he grinned looking over the side "are you okay?" She clambered out of the pile of blankets and gave a slight sigh.

"Yeah," she said. "You scared me."

"I wish I could say I was sorry," he laughed "but I'm not." She tossed a pillow at him and he ducked. "Get ready," he said "we're going to go in about an hour, alright?" Sarah got back on top of the bed and curled up under the blankets. "Sarah," he growled but she just giggled. He grabbed her, using the blanket like a sack and started for the bathroom, with her desperately trying to get out.

"HEY!" he laughed "let go!"

"Your not sleeping," he smirked swinging the match made sack around "get up, get up, get-"

"Alright!" she agreed "I'll get up!"

"Swear?" he asked, and stopped swinging her around.

"Yeah," she grumbled.

"Sarah?" he asked, his tone was testing.

"I swear!" she laughed and he set the blanket down. It unfolded and she untangled herself. "I'm gonna kill you."

"Not now your not," he smirked "go get ready!"

"I said I would get up," she said "I didn't say I'd get ready."

"Oh," he gave a nod "perhaps you'd like me to help you get ready then?" Sarah's eyes went wide and she scrambled into the bathroom and locked the door. "I'll take that as a no then."

"And no crystals!" she snapped through the door. Sarah quickly got ready, washing her face, brushing her teeth, brushing her hair. It seemed as if anything she needed Jareth had provided. For once she was glad for this. She got out of the bathroom and paused a moment. "What the heck am I supposed to wear?"

"Oh," Jareth paused a moment "yes, it seemed as if I've forgotten that, haven't I?" He paused. "Well," he thought a moment "how's this?" Sarah looked at herself, she was wearing what she'd worn the last time she was in the labyrinth.

"Oh, thank you," she said, though she felt slightly uncomfortable with Jareth changing her clothes.

"Are you ready now?" he asked, slightly amused and she nodded. "Alright," he said and offered his hand. She paused a moment, almost not trusting herself but she took his hand nonetheless. And she realized, she wasn't Aboveground anymore. "There," he gave a light sigh. "Now I've got some work to do," he said "so you may explore the castle, the garden, but don't go into the labyrinth. If you need me, call." He vanished before she could even say anything and let out a sigh.

"Alright," she said looking around "come on feet, lets take a look at this castle."
