Sarah opened the door. There stood Ethan with a bouquet of flowers. He had black spiky hair and gray eyes. He was dressed casually in a black t-shirt and jeans. A perfect boyfriend for a rock star right? All the tabloids thought so. And it didn't help that he was the bands lead guitarist.
"Hi Ethan." She said smiling at him.
"These are for you." He said handing her flowers.
"Thanks."
"I came over here to ask you something. But your beauty has stunned me into not remembering." He said walking towards the vanity.
'Oh brother.' She thought.
"I…" She heard a thump then Ethan mumbling obscenities. "What the hell is this thing?' he said picking the crystal up.
"A gift. From a friend." She said quickly.
"Who?" he asked.
"You don't know him."
"I thought you didn't have any guy friends."
"You're my friend and you're a guy." She retorted.
Ignoring her response he replied, "How'd you meet him?"
"He was the antagonist and I was the protagonist in a play I was in during high school." There that sounded convincing. Sort of.
"What's his name?"
She paused. "I told you, you don't know him."
"Try me."
She sighed. "His name is Jareth," she said quietly.
"Say that again? I couldn't hear you."
"Jareth!" she yelled at him. As the electricity in the air intensified she realized what she had done. 'Wonderful' she thought as a feeling of dread crept over her.
Jareth smiled as he watched Sarah avoiding saying his name in one of his crystals. He wondered what she thought would happen. That he would appear and take her away. It was ridiculous. When she finally said his name it surprised him as to the effect it had on him. He felt a pull to her and no doubt she probably felt something similar. He cursed silently and his grip on the crystal tightened so much it shattered in his hand doing him no harm. He sighed and walked over to his bed and threw himself upon it feeling a sudden weariness come over him. "Do you have any clue of what pain you cause me, my dear Sarah?" he whispered before falling asleep sprawled on his bed.
The electricity in the room was almost suffocating. Sarah's legs felt like gelatin and gave out from under her. Gasping for air she made her way over to the bed. Then as suddenly the atmosphere was back to normal allowing for Sarah to breathe normally.
"Sarah are you okay? What the heck just happened? One minute you're shouting at me then your coughing your lungs out. I thought you didn't have asthma."
"Didn't you feel that?" she replied.
"Feel what?"
"The atmosphere changed. It was like the air had been sucked from the room. How could you not feel that?"
"I don't know what you're talking about Sar, you've been acting kinda weird since after the show last night. Maybe you should see a doctor."
"No I'm fine really. I'm just tired. Jet lag you know." Which was a complete lie because they both knew that they hadn't even switched time zones yet.
"Okay, but you should get some rest." She gave up on trying to convince that she was fine upon seeing that he wasn't going to leave until she lied down.
About ten minutes after he left, Sarah found herself growing sleepy. Seeing as she hadn't gotten much sleep the night before because of the late night show, she figured a little nap before dinner couldn't hurt. Sighing into her pillow her last thought before falling into the land of dreams was of a certain King.
Wow it's done! Yay! Shorter than I wanted it to be but someone asked me to update. So this chapter is dedicated to Emi-chan3192. Thanks for getting my lazy butt in gear! R&R!
