Sarah woke up late that morning and looked over to see a breakfast tray awaiting her, it looked so inviting. Full of fresh fruits, breads, and there were even flowers waiting for her on the tray. She walked out onto her balcony and could smell the flowers from the garden below her. She just stared at the flowers and felt absorbed in their beauty; she did not hear the door open and a person walk in.
Jareth had hoped to come in while she was still sleeping so that he could leave the box on her dresser and have her seek him out about it later. It seemed to him the perfect excuse to be able to see her later that day; he had to do so much and would not be able to spend much time with her. He sighed and walked toward the balcony to approach Sarah from behind.
The touch on her shoulder frightened her and caused a gasp to come out as she spun around. Jareth smirked at the looked on her face and that seemed to irritate Sarah.
"Jareth, what are you doing here?"
"Why my dear Sarah, this is my castle, I can go where I please."
"I am not your property and I want my privacy. Though you gave me this room, that doesn't mean that you can come in when ever you like."
"Sarah, I merely lent you this room and I came to tell you a trip that we will be taking to my sisters."
"Why are we going to your sisters, and why do I have to tag along with you?"
"We are going to find out about the mirror and why you had my mother's ring."
"I thought that you said your sister gave it away?"
"She did, but your mother was meant to come back, not you."
"I am confused, what do you mean by that."
"That is why we are going to my sisters."
"You still haven't answered my question."
Jareth shot her a glare, he hated admitting weakness and she was forcing him to do just that. "I don't have an answer Sarah." He heisted a bit and then handed Sarah a silver box. "Here."
Sarah looked at the box a bit puzzled, "what is this?"
Jareth again was a bit annoyed by Sarah, was this not obviously a gift to be opened? How dense was she, "open it Sarah and you will have your answer." With that statement he turned around and walked off leaving a slightly dazed Sarah.
She looked down at the silver box in her hands that had been handed to her by Jareth. She was a little puzzled by his actions, as she had been by his actions since she arrived. The box was beautiful with an intricate design that surrounded it. She ran her fingers along the pattern, she knew that she should open it, but was slightly nervous, though not sure why. Sarah also wondered why he gave her this box, but mostly she wanted to know what was in it. He had told her that is contained her answer and she wondered what he had meant by that. Sarah just stood there holding the box; it was not long before she decided that it was indeed time to open the box.
