Sarah's mind was going at a million miles a minute as she stood before Jareth. She knew that someone had said her name after asking the question. Did she? Could she? Dare she say yes? Yes… dared she say yes to Jareth? The one man who had stolen her heart, stolen her brother Toby, let her traverse the Labyrinth and fall into the oubliette, tricked and tortured her body and soul. Manipulated her in every way he could in those hours she spent Underground…
"I do…"
Because despite everything she loved him and there was warmth buried deep inside him and a loving nature which she had to find. There was darkness and light and power, presence love and devotion. Sarah knew that and she was willing to sacrifice everything to see him turn.
Jareth was on edge, tense and fiercely desperate for Sarah's answer and when she said the words 'I do' he felt his body suddenly loosen and he felt as though he was about faint at that very moment. Why had she paused for s long? Did she really have to think this hard to make his decision? Was she fighting with inner demons, with torment?
" You may now kiss the bride…"
Jareth lifted the veil off of Sarah's face and gazed down into her eyes before lowering his face down to hers as Sarah pulled herself upwards towards him. Their eyes closing as there lips embraced- all of the guests cheered and whooped and whistled as they kissed. Sarah's arms wrapped slowly around Jareth's neck as his arms then wound slowly around her waist.
Sarah could hear Didymus cheering for her and wishing her well. She could hear Ludo's cries of joys and heard the boulders outside rolling. Hoggle cheering for them both. She was locked in a kiss of pure passion. She could barely hear a thing; she was so in a world where all things didn't apply. Where rules, the worlds rules, nothing applied to her whilst she was in this kiss.Jareth completely lost himself in this kiss with Sarah. He was finally hers; Sarah was finally his wife, his Queen. Sarah, his life, his everything was finally married to him. Jareth pulled Sarah closer and yanked her up and into his arms, holding her across his arms as he carried her down the aisle. Jareth could feel a big smile that had spread all the way across his face. Sarah had the same smile across her face and it made Jareth tingle and feel warm inside. He felt handsome, and she looked more beautiful than she ever had.
They departed the hall and the guest's followed- they all disappeared into the dining area that had been organised to feed all the guests. But Jareth and Sarah did not follow; they slowly slipped onto their room. Their chamber, which they would share for the foreseeable future. Their fingers entwined as they stood before one another- eyes locked in an intense loving stare…
"I love you Sarah… I want you to be happy, and I want you to be happy with me…"
"Jareth…Jareth please don't let what happened fool you. I do love you, you do make me happy…I promise you"
Sarah closed her eyes and leant against his chest as her fingers stroked against the silk shirt he wore, her fingers playing with the material as her thoughts crept back to the thoughts of her family… The family she had left behind.
