Diagnosis of The Heart
CHAPTER TWO
Something that Sarah hadn't even thought of fearing until the second it happened, happened… Nothing at all.
In front of Sarah was no Goblin King, no gust of glitter stinging her eyes, no conceited smirk turning her stomach, and no fiery eyes boring into her own. Instead, there was a hallway… an all of a sudden too empty hallway.
She stood there, dumbfounded, 'Nothing happened… nothing.' Her cheeks burned as the truth that went along with this empty hallway struck her, 'He didn't show up… I called him and he didn't show.' This not only shocked her, it made her blood boil! 'Fine. Fine!'
"He must be busy with something…" she kept clenching and unclenching her fists, "or maybe you're too good to deal with me now?" she growled, voice raised a bit too high for the time of night.
She couldn't prevent the anger that burned in her though, she was hurt. She would never admit this, but it stung, not seeing the Goblin King. He didn't come when he beckoned her. For reasons unknown to Sarah, when she though of him, a tidal wave of emotion came crashing down upon her heart, leaving her feeling thoroughly drowned. She was about to throw a bit of a tantrum before she caught herself. All these thoughts of Jareth were beginning to make her feel as though she were the same fifteen year old girl that he had had running around his maze many years ago.
This feeling was far from welcomed by Sarah, "I'm acting like a child! What is wrong with me? Why am I- wait…." A thought was beginning to nag at the back of Sarah's mind, "Child…" looking down mass of fake tufts of fur in her hand she started, "Oh gosh, Toby!" glancing at the hall clock she took off towards her brother's room. "Twenty minutes? Really? I am such a bad big sister!"
Reaching the bedroom, Sarah knocked lightly on the door, when no reply is given, slowly, and quietly she creeps the door to her brother's room open, "Toby, Toby?" stepping into the room on tip-toe she creeps towards her brother's bedside, kneeling down and resting an apologetic hand on his messy hair, "I'm sorry I took so long buddy, I got a little distracted…" no response, "hey, Tobes? You asleep or mad?"
"The earlier, he's been out for a few minutes as a matter of fact."
Jumping to her feet as her heart leapt to her throat, Sarah whipped around, eyes landing on the mismatched ones opposite to her. When their eyes met she could only think to the extent of uttering one thing in response, "…Jareth."
"Hello, Precious."
END CHAPTER TWO
