Chapter 7
From her place at the tree, Sarah saw that the sun was starting to set beyond the mountains in the distance.
"Well might as well find my way back." She said to herself.
Sarah got up and started making her way through the Labyrinth. As she walked further and further, she finally realized, she had no idea where she was in comparison with the castle. She looked around scared. The Labyrinth had a whole new side to it at night. She could hear every movement anything inside of it made. She started walking back down the way she was heading, picking up her speed as she went.
From behind her, she heard a loud crash. She jumped and started running faster, hoping to get far away from whatever made that sound. All around her things were creaking, and breaking and making odd noises.
Finally she gave up her courage that she was holding onto and let out a loud sob. She was so scared now and she had no clue on how to get back to the castle. "Why did she run from the only person who could take her back." She thought.
Sarah curled into a ball in the corner, hoping that nothing around her could see her. She sat there for what seemed like entirety, but what was only about 2 minutes, before she felt a hand on her shoulder.
She jumped and screamed.
"Shh it's me. Calm down." Jareth said.
Sarah had never been so happy to see him before.
"Come on, this way." He said, walking back down the way she had come from.
Sarah followed Jareth back to the castle.
"Well I guess you should be getting to bed now." Jareth said, as he walked down the hall towards his own chambers.
"Thank You." Sarah said in a low voice.
Jareth sighed. "Your Welcome." He said before he walked into his bedroom.
Sarah walked into her room and changed for bed. In an instant she was sound asleep.
Jareth walked into his bedroom and closed the door behind him. He changed for bed and sat in his corner chair and stared out the window to the clear sky with the huge moon hanging like a crystal ball from the ceiling.
Jareth sat there and thought about finding Sarah in the dark ends of the Labyrinth and how scared she looked.
Feelings inside him coursed through his body. Feelings he had never experienced before. A feeling of protection. When Jareth had found Sarah in the Labyrinth, his heart almost broke at the sight of her scared form.
These new feelings for Sarah startled him. He realized that his plan to make Sarah love him had done a complete U-turn. He knew from before that he had some sort of feelings towards Sarah, but at the time wasn't so sure. Finally he convinced himself that these feelings were that of a king, realizing that this was the perfect person to be queen. So after that he had never thought about any other reasons for them. Until now. Jareth realized at this moment, that he was indeed in Love with Sarah, and would do everything in his power to make her realize that, and to make her love him back.
