To All my loyal readers. Thank you for everything. This is for you. And please, please do read my new story The Asylum. It's all my own creation. Please let me know everything. Not for the faint hearted.[LittlEm]
Jareth and Sarah looked at each other with shock and horror. Jareth slid of Sarah pulling all of his stuff together and scrambling about as Sarah grabbed a dressing gown and flung it around her body.
What the hell were they doing home already? Had time really gone that fast? It really just couldn't. How could she possibly be losing Jareth already? Sarah's mind buzzed with so many thoughts and questions as she darted around trying to figure out what to do. She had only just touched his marble skin, felt his perfect touch- she could not lose him.
Jareth was flustered and angry and confused as to what the hell was going on. He was worried about what Sarah would do. Whether she would just stay here and tell him to go and leave her- Jareth thought he would be about ready to die if she did that. Or would she take his hand and go with him? Jareth twiddled his thumbs and Sarah stormed about, his eyes still watching how her body moved.
They both moved together and stood in front of the door
" I promise you I didn't think that they would be home so soon Jareth…"
" It's alright Sarah darling, don't fret… too much. But what are we going to do?"
His hand slipped to hers and they both stood in silence glancing at their hands, just savouring this as she heard her dad shout up to her.
"I'm fine dad! Honest… Just go straight to bed, I am!"
The lie came out of her mouth easy as both of their hearts pounded in their chest. They turned to one another and held each other suddenly as the doors to the rooms started to shut. The muffled sounds of Sarah's father and stepmother filled the room- the slowly lowering sound of Toby, as he was soothed into a slumber.
Sarah was so confused as to what she was going to do. She wanted to go with Jareth and to just be with him. She had such intense feelings for him. Yet was worried all the way through her body. Would Jareth want her to come with him? Did he feel like she did? … Oh what would her dad say? How could they possibly cope without her? Poor little Toby.
Oh god. Did Sarah feel as intense as he did? Would she want to come with him? Oh good god, why would she want to come with him. He was so worried about everything that was occurring. Oh Sarah, his perfect little Sarah… What would he do without her?
They looked into each other's eye, answering the questions that needed to be answered…
They nodded their heads, closed their eyes…leaving what they knew behind for good.
