Sorry that's it's taken me a while to update, but I've been working on my research paper for school. Blah. But YAY!! I'm done!!!

Oh, by the way, I've gotten notice that the link for the water fall scene didn't show up on my last chapter, so when I get a chance, if anyone wants to see it, I will put it up as soon as possible.

Ok, well here is the next Chapter. Enjoy!

Chapter 8

Sarah awoke the next morning to the sounds of chirping from the window outside her room. She groaned and pulled the covers up over her head.

But even with that, the annoying sound kept on.

She finally accepted that she was being forced to get up. She threw the covers off of her and got up out of bed.

She walked over to her bathroom and did her business as usual.

This morning was very odd it seemed to her. "Where is Meeky? She usually wakes me up in the morning. Hm. Oh well." Sarah thought to herself.

Sarah walked over to her closet and pulled out a pair of gray sweatpants and a white tank top.

As she was beginning to take off her pajamas, a glimmer out of the corner of her eye caught her attention. She turned around and sitting in the chair in the corner of her room was Jareth holding a clear crystal in his hand.

"What are you doing here?" Sarah asked.

"I came to wake you up, but you looked so peaceful that I couldn't bring myself to do it." Jareth replied, trying not to sound like he had been watching her for the past two hours.

"Oh." Sarah replied, taking her clothes into the bathroom to change.

"I had the cook prepare us breakfast again. Would you like to join me?" Jareth asked, hopefully.

"Um, sure." Sarah said behind the closed door. "Why was he being so nice to her." She wondered to herself.

"Great. I will just wait here for you then." Jareth said, sitting on the edge of her bed.

Soon Sarah walked out of the bathroom dressed for the day.

Jareth looked at Sarah's choice of clothing. To him, it was a very odd fashion, since no one usually wore that in the underground. In fact, they never wore it. But seeing Sarah in it didn't make her any less beautiful then she already was.

Sarah realized that Jareth was staring at her. She looked down to see if there was something on her clothing, but nothing was there. When she looked back up, Jareth was walking towards the door.

"Well, you ready?" He asked.

"Yep." Sarah replied.

After breakfast, Jareth took Sarah to the Library. Knowing Sarah, she absolutely fell in love with it at first sight.

Jareth watched her as she looked at every shelf, every book, like she was dissecting it word by word.

"God, she is beautiful." Jareth thought to himself. He told himself, that he had to find the perfect time to tell her his feelings for her and in hope that she would return them.

Sarah walked into a little sitting area and took the first book she picked out of the basket that carried all the books she wanted.

She sat there for about five minutes before her mind wandered to Jareth. "Why is he being so nice to me all of a sudden?" She asked herself.

"Well duh! Because he likes you stupid." Her inner voice said.

"No he doesn't. He's probably being nice just so he can persuade me into that whole marriage idea again." She replied.

"Whatever. You just wait. You will see that I am right." Her inner voice replied.

"Sarah" Jareth said as he walked up to her.

"Huh. Oh Hi. What?" Sarah stumbled.

"I just received news that there is a dance tonight. It is to honor the new prince of the fairies. Would you like to accompany me?" Jareth asked.

"Sure." She replied. She had never been to a ball before, if that was indeed what it was.

"Great." Jareth said. "This will be the perfect time to let her know how I feel." Jareth thought to himself.

"What should I wear?" Sarah asked, breaking Jareth from his thoughts.

"There should be some nice ball gowns in your closet. You can pick one of them." He replied.

"Ok." Sarah replied.
