Chapter 11

Sarah paced back and forth in her room, she was so afraid that Peter was going to tell Jareth about her feelings for him. She needed to talk to someone, someone who would listen and not think she was crazy. She sat down on her bed , trying to think of someone she could talk to about Jareth. Then it hit her, Hoggle. She could call Hoggle, he would listen. Maybe he could hopefully give her some advice on what she should do. She walked over to her mirror, sat down in front of it, took a deep breath and called.

"Hoggle , I need you."

Hoggle appeared in her room a moment later.

"Hello Sarah, what can I do for you?"

"Oh Hoggle, I'm so glad you came. I need to talk to someone."

"Well , I'm here and I would be glad to listen to you."

"Thanks" she sighed , hugged her friend, and then started to talk.

"Well it all started after you guys helped me get home. I kinda started to wonder why I left, why I left you. It was then that I realized that I was ..." she paused for a second and swallowed before finishing her sentence. ".. in love with Jareth."

Hoggle's facial expression was that of shock. He couldn't believe that Sarah was in love with Jareth of all people.

"After I realized that I was in love with him, I just couldn't take living anymore, so I tried to kill myself."

As she finished Sarah started to cry hysterically , and Hoggle walked over to Sarah and hugged her, trying to comfort her.

"Awe, it's ok Sarah" He said trying to calm her down

"Oh Hoggle, I don't know what to do" She said in between sobs.

Jareth looked around his throne room and noticed that he and Peter had an audience. Not wanting the goblins to hear their conversation. He transported himself and Peter to his room.

"That's better" Jareth said "Continue.."

Peter just glared at Jareth and then proceeded to continue his story.

" What happened was she was having second thoughts about leaving the underground , leaving her friends, leaving you. She finally realized that she loved you. She was in so much pain because of you. So she tried to kill herself. She did it all for you!"

Jareth looked at Peter, he was in shock. He couldn't believe that Sarah truly loved him, as he truly loved her. He had to go see her and tell her that it was ok and he loved her too. Jareth got up and headed toward his window. Peter looked at him and asked.

"Where do you think you're going?"

"I am going to her, she needs me and I need her."

"Oh No you're not. She needs time to herself, if you show up then things might not go the way you want them to. Give me time to work on her, to help her heal. So that maybe I can help persuade her to tell you how she feels."

Jareth sighed and slowly backed away from the window. Peter was right, as much as he hated to admit it. Jareth looked at Peter and then produced a crystal.

"Go back then"

As Peter started to leave, he turned back and caught a glimpse of what looked like a tear in Jareth's eye.

Hoggle was trying to comfort Sarah, but it wasn't helping. She was crying uncontrollably and he didn't know how to make her stop.

"Oh Sarah it's ok, don't cry."

"Hoggle, I just wish I knew what to do" She said in between sobs.

"Maybe you should just tell him how you feel." a voice from behind said

Sarah looked back to see Peter standing in the doorway. She rubbed the tears from her eyes, only to start crying again. Peter moved toward Sarah and tried to help calm her down along with Hoggle. Peter glanced at Hoggle and mouthed.

"It's ok I'll work on her. You try and work on Jareth."

Hoggle was slightly confused , but did as he was told.

Jareth sat up on his bed and looked at himself in the mirror. His eyes were all red and puffy.

"Oh would you look at yourself Jareth! You're crying over a girl." he said to himself.

He got up and went into his private bath and splashed cold water on his face, which eventually returned his mismatched eyes back to normal. He walked back to his room and sat on his bed. , buried his head in his hands, and asked himself.

"Why don't I have the courage to tell Sarah that I love her?"

He looked up to see Hoggle standing in the doorway.

"How much did you hear?" he asked Hoggle.

Hoggle looked at Jareth hesitantly, and then looked down at the floor.

"That's what I was afraid of.." Jareth replied "Now the whole underground is going to know my secret!"
