Hi Guys. I'm sorry to say that this is the last chapter. I always intended for it to be short, oh well, short and sweet :) I hope that this ending is satisfying for you. Please R&R, d/s: I own nothing but my own creations, Jim Henson owns Labyrinth (May he R.I.P) and David Bowie owns this song (May he rock on in hotness forever)! :)

Chapter Four: Realisation

Sarah slammed her bedroom door hard as she came into her room, once again with angry tears running down her face. She glanced down at the tacky, plastic bracelet around her wrist and pulled it off, sending 2cent beads flying across her floor and then she threw what remained of the bracelet out her window. "Sam!" she screamed "You Bastard!"

She fell down on her bed and shut her eyes, then smiled. "Jareth!" she called.

When she opened her eyes he was there, just as she knew he would be but he looked nervous and agitated as though he had something to tell her.

She got up and with a wide smile walked towards him, "alright, let's go."

"Wait Sarah" Jareth held out his hand to her motioning her to stop coming towards him. He glanced down at the ground sorrowfully, trying to maintain a firm look upon his face and then looked back up at her.

"Sarah, this can't go on forever. You have a choice to make. Either you come with me to the Labyrinth permanently or you stay here and never return to it."

Sarah got a look a pure fury on her face "You Bastard! How could you force me to make that choice?!"

This outburst awoke Jareth's anger as well. After all, he could only cope with so much "Sarah, I will no longer cope with being a reserve! I will no longer sit around waiting for you to break up with your boyfriends and then call on me only to bring you back again! I am not just there for when you want me! No More Sarah, do you hear me! Make your choice!"

"Fine!" she screamed in reply, "If you would make me make that choice then I want nothing more to do with you, understand, leave me alone!"

Those last words hung on the air for a moment and then with a look of fury piercing his mismatched eyes and a swirl of his black cloak, Jareth disappeared in a cloud of glitter.

For a few seconds, Sarah just stood there in silence and disbelief. She'd really done it now. Now, she would never be able to go back there again. Her anger had lost her that world. She broke down into tears and collapsed on her bedroom floor.

Two days later, Sarah's stepmother Irene entered Sarah's room. Sarah was nothing but a ball, curled up in the corner of her bed, staring into space.

Irene plonked a tray of food onto the end of the bed. "Come on Sarah, you haven't eaten anything for two days and you haven't slept. It's time to grow up!" she sighed, "at least let's talk about what's wrong Sarah." Sarah said nothing, she just continued to stare into space as though Irene wasn't there, so with another sigh, Irene stood up and left the room.

Suddenly Sarah's eyes came into focus as though she had been thinking on a difficult problem and had finally found the answer. She now knew was she had to do.

There's such a sad love, deep in your eyes

A kind of pale jewel, opened and closed

Within your eyes, I'll place the sky, within your eyes…

She walked down the stairs as if in dream, staring into space but with a smile that said it was a happy dream.

Upon seeing their daughter finally emerged and looking happy after two days, Irene and Sarah's Father rushed over to her, Irene holding the baby Toby in her arms.

"Sarah! Thank goodness you're better again…" her father's words travelled off as he saw her staring at the door, "Uh Sarah, where are you going?" he glanced worryingly at her.

Sarah looked at her father but one could tell that she did not see him. She knelt down and kissed Toby on his tiny forehead, he gurgled in response. "I'm going to him Toby," she whispered to him. Then she lifted her head and looked at the door once more "Goodbye" and proceeded to walk towards it.

There's such a fooled heart, beating so fast

In search of new dreams, a love that will last

Within your heart, I'll place the moon, within your heart…

She didn't look back, her father ran after her as far as the front doorstep and then stopped, as though realising that he had to let her go.

She walked all the way to the park. She still looked as though she was in a happy trance and people stopped to stare at her as she walked past.

As the pain sweeps through makes so sense for you

Every thrill is gone, wasn't too much fun at all…

The children playing in the park watched this girl as she walked over to a strange looking man in a cape that seemed to have appeared out of nowhere.

But I'll be there for you, as the world falls down…

The girl held out both of her hands to the man. They were both smiling and gazing at each other. Their palms touched and then the girl's clothes changed into a big, white ball gown and her hair became laced with ribbons.

It's falling, it's falling down…

Then they linked arms and walked away in the opposite direction, still smiling at each other. They seemed to be fading, disappearing as all this glitter floated around them.

Falling in love…
