Chapter Fifteen

By Word of Mouth

There were bubbles everywhere, she signed the next day to Luther, though she made him double swear he wouldn't tell a soul. He was practically crying from laughing as Piper held Danielle on her lap. Jareth let her work with Luther and Fred that day, taking care of the kids.

"Pepper," the toddler giggled and she sighed.

"Piper," Freddy started "you think me and Luther should go hang around in your room, tomorrow? With Eeva too I mean."

"Like I've said," Piper shrugged "about two thousand times, whatever you want." Fred shifted a little and let out a sigh.

"I don't know," he murmured "I mean… Sonya-"

"What about me?" Sonya asked walking in with a basket full of clean clothes.

"Uh," the three looked at each other. "We we're just admiring your…"

Hair? Luther signed.

"Intelligence?" Piper lied.

"Your boobs," Fred said and both Piper and Luther stared at him blankly.

-

"Her boobs?" Piper asked once Sonya was gone "of all things you could mention, you HAD to point out her boobs?" Fred nodded. "Oh my god." Piper shook her head and laughed "Freddy you're insane."

"I know," he smirked "I try." Piper finished work, the day seemed to fly by fast and she found Jareth in the library.

"What entertainment shall I bestow upon you today, your highness?" she teased. He looked up at her from his book and nodded. He seemed engrossed with his book so she skimmed the library walls. A lot of old books, some in other languages, a few stories but she found one that interested her, Guide to the Underground. She skimmed the book, it had just about every creature in there. She smirked and looked for Goblins. She sat down on the floor and read the page:

Goblins seem to have a moral code of their own. Though they can be harmful, they can also be quiet beneficial in the right circumstances. Can appear as animals, usually owls, fox, toads or insects. Their King-

"What are you reading?" Jareth asked, leaning over Piper and she jumped.

"Nothing," she grinned a little and put the book back on the shelf.

"Ah," he eyed the book for a moment "I see. What PART where you reading?"

"Goblins," she shrugged and he smirked.

"Oh," he sighed "by the way, Sonya came to me with a complaint." Piper laughed because she already knew what she'd said. "She finds it disturbing that a gay guy is talking about her-"

"OK," Piper laughed "I know. We weren't though, Freddy just said that to freak her out."

"Well it worked," he muttered. Piper looked out the window, it started to rain and she sighed.

"Well, if your done," she mused and he nodded at her. Piper slipped into her room where Sarah was waiting.

Author's note: Sorry, Conner seems a little tired so I'm gonna get some sleep and so is he (he only sleeps when I do :shrugs:) anyways, sorry its so short and cruddy, but we sleepy, but I needed to get this outta my head. Next chapter will be that party on Friday, ok? And the next probably the ball, I'm not sure yet. Anyways, sleep time. Love you all.

P.S: ARGH! Sarah AGAIN? I love her and all but, in this story she's kinda a… (in the immortal words of Conner the muse) a prick.

Roots Theshadowcat: Don't know, ask my muse. Glad you liked.

Morrigana: I know, but I believe those free spirited types do not wish to be owned. I know I wouldn't, even if it WAS by Jareth… though it is very tempting.

Acantha Mardivey- I thought it twas very entertaining. :hugs back: I have a very good mind to curl up and take a nap instead of pay attention in Spanish… night night, and I'll talk to you on aim later hun.

Sightlessmuse- I know he was good taste in words. It amazes me because, he uses words in some things that I don't even know- I love Piper, and as you can see… well, this is turning out quite interesting.

Theshadowcat: Conner: Uh… I don't think my authoress would appreciate you rubbing against me. Even if you ARE a cat. Besides… cats scare me.

NuPreacher: Conner: uh… :hides again:

Good gods Conner. Whatcha afraid of? She's not gonna bite you!

Conner: you don't know that! Anyone that says wittle… that has 'I'm going to smother you to death' written all over it.

Your such a baby….

LadyAniviel: I thought it was funny, the soap thing. Bubbles… :laughs:gets evil glare from Jareth: uh… maybe I need to make him a little… less cute… before he kills me.

Jareth's PixiePrincess: Thank you. -

Conner: see that? Sweet. How come YOU never say anything nice to me?

I do. I just don't say the crap you want me to.

Conner: Better be nice to me. I made you laugh yesterday.

Ok, ok. :smirks: your sweet. Happy?

Conner: no, but it'll do.

Rilka: Thank you, I take it your laughing at the soap thing. :smirks:

Queen of the Damend- your so nice to lie about my writing like that :laughs: I know, Danielle kinda faded off into the background. But I figured that since Piper's been taking care of him for like… ever, that she'd want a few days away from him. And yes, PLEASE take Nick, he needs a home.

Hippie99: I know, I know, I love him too. I dislike Sonya I'm sorry but :growls: had to have a bad guy.
