'What am I doing? Who is taking over my body? This isn't me; I need to get out of here. This isn't fair!' Sarah thought to herself. She walked to the closet. 'I guess I will just have to play along for now. I will have to memorize halls that will help me escape and staircases. Get close to Jareth to think that I like him a lot and will put down his guard of watching me. Oh, this isn't fair. Where would I go? Oh drats.' Sarah picked out a cream colored blouse and blue jeans, and she walked to the bed and laid down on the soft sheets and fell asleep.
A few hours later…
"It's nice of you to join me. I heard that you denied the dress that was made for you." Jareth replied angrily. "Please tell me what was wrong with it."
"Nothing was wrong with it, I just didn't want it. Or to be in fact wear it." Sarah replied coldly. Jareth glared at her for awhile and looked down to his plate. 'I wonder what's going on in that little head of hers.' Jareth thought to himself as he grabbed one of the utensils to help with eating supper. An hour passed by. "The food was delicious Jareth." Sarah replied as she put the napkin to her face and back down to the table.
"I'm glad that you liked it. Will you meet me in my office at ten-o-clock?" Jareth asked cautiously. Sarah looked at him for awhile. 'Does he know what I'm planning already without any word spoken of it?'
"No Thank you." Sarah replied more sharp than she expected it to, which made Jareth give her a quizzical look.
"Let me rephrase that, you will meet me in my office at ten-o-clock." Jareth said as he got up. Sarah looked at him through hate filled eyes.
"That's not fair!" Sarah shouted to Jareth. Now Jareth knew for sure that something was wrong.
"You say that often, I wonder what your base of comparison is. So, tell me, are you going to wish that I the Goblin King return you back home to your room before you were kicked out of the house?" Jareth asked in an aggressive voice, which made Sarah jump and made her step back.
"What makes you think that, may I ask your majesty?" Sarah asked with shock filled into her voice with a huge amount of anger.
"Just the huge leap from yesterday's body language to today's. You are more back to your normal self than yesterday which means, you never really wanted me to take you and just thought it would be interesting to see if I'd answer the girl who had defeated my labyrinth only a year ago. Not only that, you had absolutely no home to go to along with being depressed. Now I took you in, I deserve respect and gratitude for what I did. I could of just left you out there in the street just like your stepmother. What is her name again? Oh yes Karen. Not to mention you cannot leave or wish yourself back." Jareth said knowingly of what the look in her eyes meant. She was trying to get away from him and a roof over her head, with food. She would have been just as good on the street with all the effort she was trying to get out of the castle. If it were not for him, she would of ended up raped within the week.
Sarah just stood there with defiance in her eyes, lifted up her chin, turned around, and stormed out of the room making sure to slam the great big doors behind her. Even though the doors did not really slam which pissed her off even more. She ran up the stairs as fast as she could, went into her room, plopped on the bed face down, and started crying. Everything was ripped away from her within a day, and she couldn't go back to her home where she belonged because Karen had told her that she was never to step back into that house ever again. Along with asking for the Goblin King to take her to his kingdom, and he did but she can't even visit up there for a short time. "He is so cruel, no he's a monster who just so happens to look like an angel. Darn him. It's not fair.' Sarah laid on that bed, fell asleep, and awoke a few hours later with really loud bangs on her door. She looked over at the clock, it said 10:53, Jareth probably pissed off as hell, and he probably was at the door, pounding like hell threatening to break down the door without using verbal threats. "Oh be patient, I'm coming." Sarah said starting to get really annoyed by the constant banging on her door. She unlocked the door, opened it, and left to go back to bed and to let his majesty in.
"Where were you? Don't tell me, you've been sleeping." Jareth said as he saw her get back into bed with her eyes closing rapidly. "Don't you dare go to sleep, you and I have a lot to talk about, especially about your treatment of me today."
"Oh shut up, I'm tired. Can't this argument wait until another time?" Sarah groaned while pulling a pillow over her head. This pissed Jareth off. He walked over to the bed, snatched the pillow, and threw it to the floor.
"Sarah I have been generous to you, maybe even overly generous. If you cannot give me some of your time. I'll make you go through the labyrinth before you can go to bed. Which will it be? Listen to me for maybe a few minutes or solving the labyrinth?" Jareth threatened, now at his boiling point even if she choose the first one, he would make her do the second just to show where she belongs.
" I choose the first one." Sarah grumbled, and sat up groggily in the bed. Looking Jareth square in the eye to show him that she was not afraid of his wrath or his power that he wields.
"For one, I did not appreciate you giving me attitude when I've given you what you wanted. Two, When I tell you to be somewhere at a certain time, you are supposed to be there at that time no later. Third, I do not appreciate you using me, and next time you do any of these things, you will be punished accordingly. Do I make myself clear?" Jareth asked angrily while his face was mere inches from hers with his hands on the bed next to her.
"Yes I understand your majesty." Sarah said looking away from her so that he could not see the pain in her eyes, along with the hate, and love even though she would never admit it to him that she felt that for him. She would not give him the satisfaction of knowing he had stolen her heart. A knock came to the door. Standing there was a little goblin.
"Your majesty, we have a problem." The little goblin said stepping back a few steps seeing that his majesty was really angry.
"I'll be seeing you tomorrow at the morning meal. You are to be there." Jareth said roughly. Leaning forward to land a kiss on her cheek, and got up and left.
