"Jenna, Jenna , Jenna. The great baby Jenna!" Sarah said while hoisting the goblin baby up in the air. Jenna was no longer crying. In fact she was laughing. Sarah sat next to the fountain that was just outside of her room.

"What do you have there Sarah?"

Sarah quickly turned around. Hoggle was standing just a few feet behind her. "Hello Hoggle! This is Jenna." Sarah said while holding the baby for him to look at.

"And where did Jenna come from Sarah?"

"What do you mean where did she come from. She is the baby that was just recently wished away."

"I know that. I mean how did you manage to get a hold of her?"

"What? Amelia, the nurse, is letting me take care of her. Seems I am the only one who can keep her quite."

"You mean to tell me Amelia let one of her charges out of her sight?"

"Well yes. She needed to take care of the other children."

"Sarah do you realize what that means?"

She shook her head, "Sarah, that woman actually trusts you! She hardly lets anyone near the goblin children. If she does permit anyone they are constantly under her close watch."

"Why is that?"

"She doesn't want anyone to hurt the children. She figures they have been through enough. She gets upset if anyone so much as looks at them the wrong way."

"How do you know that?"

"I thought it was common knowledge. She treats those babies as if they were her own children."

Sarah knew Hoggle would never lead her astray. She knew Adele was wrong about Amelia.

"Well anyways I better get back to work. With Hester gone I now have to spray the whole Labyrinth by myself."

"Hester is gone? Where did she run off too?" Sarah asked.

"No idea actually. She just ran off. She's been mad at me a lot lately. I figure her running off has something to do with that."

"Aren't you going to search for her? Aren't you worried."

"No. she use to pulled things like this all the time when she was younger. She will be back soon. I guess she just needs time to cool down."

"I see. Well see you later Hoggle!"

"Bye Sarah!"

"Say bye-bye to Hoggle Jenna." Sarah said while moving the baby's wrist up and down.

"Bye-bye," Jenna forced out. Sarah looked down at Jenna in amazement.

"Did you hear that Hoggle? She said her first word!"

"Wow she must be a late bloomer. Usually they are speaking full sentences by now. C'ya," Hoggle then hurried off.

Hoggle was right. In a full 3 hours Jenna had learned to say 45 words. Sarah couldn't help but be proud. The last word Jenna learned was, "Hungry."

"Hungry? You can't be hungry it is only," Sarah looked at the clock which read 5 minutes till 12. "Oh no Jenna we are going to be late for lunch." Sarah got up and quickly walked to her room.

She placed Jenna on her bed and went over to her closet. "What do you think Jenna? Should I wear the white dress with the blue sash or the blue dress with the white sash?"

"White blue," She said.

"Yes I like this one too." A few minutes later Sarah was ready to go. She picked up Jenna and they were out the door. Sarah was surprised with the fact that she didn't need any help in getting to the dinning hall.

When she opened the two huge doors she was automatically surrounded by a huge bustling city. Cars were honking and people kept rushing by her. Sarah was so confused until she felt a familiar hand resting on her shoulder.

"This way," Jareth directed Sarah to a table outside a deli.

"What's with the city scene?" Sarah asked.

"I just needed to change things up a bit," Jareth said, "I sometimes just feel the need for the hustle and bustle of the city life, not very often though. Why? Do you not like it?"

"No it is fine. I just like being in the great out doors thats all. More space to think. But the city can be a wonderful place too."

"I see," Jareth said, "Looks like you have brought a little friend with you. Jenna isn't it?"

Sarah had almost completely forgotten about her there for a second. Jenna was rather frightened by all the noise but she didn't cry.

"Yeah Amelia asked me to look after her for a little while."

"I am in shock!" Jareth said.

"Why is that?"

"Amelia must have her hands full if she is asking for outside help. She must truly be stumped with this little one if the only way she can get her to be quite is by giving her to you. Perhaps you should stay a little longer then planned," Jareth said semi-jokingly, "Until this little one grows-up a little more I mean." Jareth looked at her as if he expected a true answer to his proposition.

"Uh…ummm well Jareth I think this little one will be over her fascination with me soon. I see no need for me to be more of a burden to you then I need to be."

"Sarah, Sarah, it's alright. I shouldn't be asking such things. And you should know that you are not a burden to me."

Just then a waiter came up to take their order.

"I will have a club with everything on it, a side of fries and water. What would you like Sarah?"

Sarah just noticed that there were actual people in this scene. Amazed she was unable to think of anything else to say except for, "the same."

"Would the baby like anything?"

"Milk," Jenna said, "Carrots."

The waiter then wrote down their order and walked off.

"Jareth are these people real?"

"Yes they are. I thought we went over this? I guess not. Well this is just a different part of the underground. You would be surprised how much some places resemble the aboveground. "

"Oh interesting."

"I guess. So how has little Jenna been?" Jareth asked the little baby who was playing with Sarah's hair.

"Happy! Hold me?" Jenna asked while holding her arms out to Jareth.

"Why certainly little one," He walked over and picked her up. He held her in his arms and then tossed her in the air causing her to laugh and in turn making him smile.

"So why do you cry so much little one? Do you not like Amelia?" Jareth asked.

"Amelia nice. Like mommy more. No like away from mommy," Jenna said.

"Wait Jareth! I thought she wouldn't remember her past life!"

Jareth didn't bother answering her question. He just simply asked Jenna, "Who is your mommy Jenna?"

Jenna then pointed to Sarah and asked Jareth, "Are you daddy?"

"In a sense little one, yes I am," this caused Jenna to laugh.

He then proceeded to play with the goblin child. Showing her magic tricks and such. Sarah just looked on in awe. The thought of the Jenna thinking she was her mother made her smile. The spectacle going on before her also warmed her heart.

When the waiter brought their food out he had another man bring in a high chair for Jenna, something Sarah didn't think about. She thanked the waiter and placed the child in the seat. Jenna happily sat their eating her carrots and drinking her milk. She paid little to no attention to Sarah and Jareth.

They sat for a little in silence while they ate. Sarah had not realized how hungry she was. After she finished her sandwich though she couldn't help saying, "You surprise me Jareth."

"Surprise you? How?"

"For so long I completely misunderstood your character. I truly thought you were this horrible monster but now I know that was wrong. You are not a monster at all."

"Well thank you Sarah for clarifying that for me," he said sarcastically.

"No Jareth I didn't mean it that way," Sarah then looked down at her plate, "What I guess I am trying to say is that I had you figured all wrong. Deep down you are all good. As much as I hate to admit it, I can't seem to stay mad at you any more. I rather enjoy spending time with you," She then paused as if waiting for an answer. Unable to look up or bare the silence she added, "Sorry if I made you feel uncomfortable. I just had to get that off my chest."

Jareth didn't saying anything. But then she felt him caress her hand. Sarah then looked up at him. He was smiling.

"After what was just said Sarah I hate to tell you this but I must leave. I fear I have taken to long of a lunch break," he then got up, "This should cover everything," he placed a crystal on the table which then transformed into some kind of currency, "There should also be enough money left for you to buy a nice toy for Jenna."

When he was about to leave Sarah stood up and said, "Wait a minute! You are not going to say anything to me about what I just said?"

Jareth looked her in the eyes, "What would you like me to say Sarah? That I feel the same way? That I wish you would stay with me? That I love you? For I fear that is not what you want to hear," with that said he vanished.


A/N:) Hehe! Hope you enjoyed that. I will try to post more by tomorrow. I am not promising anything though.
