Disclaimer: I own nothing dealing with Labyrinth and all that jazz!

A/N: Well, first off I would like to say I am so sorry for taking so long in writing this chapter. I have been very busy and also my laptop is being a jerk so I had to completely rewrite this chapter on my home computer. Second of all, I would like to thank all those of you who have reviewed this story thus far. I really appreciate it a lot. Thank you so much. Hope you like this chapter.

It seemed as if the time just flew by. And it wasn't long before Sarah's birthday came. Sarah woke up that morning, feeling very excited because she knew Bryan was planning something special/ She could tell by the way he was tip-toeing around her all week long, and for the whispered conversations he would have on the phone line.

She smiled as she thought of her fiancée. He was probably planning something grand, even though she had told him time and time again she didn't want him to do anything too big. Getting up, she quickly got ready for her day, wondering all the while what Bryan could possibly be setting up for her.

Ooooooooooo

At work, Sarah smiled when she saw a huge bouquet of roses on her desk. Once again, Bryan was always thinking of her. She suddenly did not care that he had not seen her all that much during the week. But as she opened the card, she felt somewhat disappointed. The roses weren't from Bryan, but from Jareth. Sure, she was happy that Jareth had remembered her on her birthday, but she was also disappointed that Bryan hadn't been so considerate to do the same thing.

'Sarah,

'Well, I hope that you find these flowers pleasing. You'll get something else later on tonight. Jareth'

Sarah smiled. Well, they may not have been from Bryan, but at least they were from a close friend. Shaking her head slowly and chuckling, she set aside the card, sniffed one of the roses, and then began her usual work day.

Ooooooooooo

Jareth looked into his crystal ball, and liked what he saw. The smile which could be seen on Sarah's face was now reflected upon his own. He congratulated himself on a job well done, even though he had not even giver her the present yet.

"It looks like Sarah really enjoyed your gift, sire," said Hoggle, suddenly appearing beside Jareth. This caused the Goblin King to jump a little. He had been so intent on watching Sarah that he had not even heard Hoggle walk through the door of his throne room.

"Don't scare me like that, Hoggle," he huffed. Hoggle just rolled his eyes.

"Yes, sire," he said. "Anyway, I just wanted to congratulate you on the flowers. That was good thinking."

"Of course it was," said Jareth, banishing the orb. "That was because it was my idea." Hoggle smiled. He knew Jareth hadn't come up with the idea on his own, but it was him, Hoggle, who had subtly, but very effectively, planted the idea in Jareth's head. He had so cleverly walked by Jareth and said, "Doesn't Sarah love roses?" and kept walking.

"Let us hope that nothing goes wrong with the next gift," sighed Hoggle.

"We can only hope," replied Jareth.

Ooooooooooo

Sarah walked wearily up the steps of her house, tired and a bit flustered. She was more than a bit angry that she had not heard from Bryan all day. It was her birthday and she felt that Bryan should find some time in his busy schedule to give his fiancé a call on her birthday. He didn't even have to get her a gift, just as long as he thought to call her. It would have meant so much to her to just hear his voice, but she had not.

"She placed her key in the lock, turned it, walked in, and turned on the lights. What happened next gave her the shock of her life.

"Surprise!" Sarah jumped back when she saw many people from her work yell out loud. "Happy birthday, Sarah!" they cried in unison. She smiled and laughed when she saw them standing there, music now playing loudly.

"Oh my gosh," she laughed. "Thank you so much!" Bryan appeared right behind her and, twirling her around, gave her a huge hug.

"Happy birthday, my love," he whispered into her ear. He pulled back and kissed her on the lips.

"Thank you so much, Bryan," she replied when they parted. "I can't believe this. How did you pull this off?"

"I tell you, it wasn't easy," he replied. Sarah rolled her eyes and went to the stairs.

"I'll be right back, everybody. I just need to put some things in my room and I'll be back down." With that, she hurried up the stairs and into her bedroom. She pushed open the door and started when she saw a man standing in the center of her room, staring at her television set.

"I don't know much about mortal contraptions, but I suppose this would be considered as pretty impressive, isn't it?" Sarah chuckled.

"Jareth, what are you doing here?" she asked.

"I'm here for the party, of course," Jareth replied, looking up at her and smiling.

"That was not what I meant and you know it," Sarah said.

"Oh, in your room? I just wanted to see what all the fuss is about." Jareth looked back at the television set. "I still don't know what all the fuss is about. But, hey, if you like it, then you like it." He smiled and walked over to Sarah, handing her a small gift. "I have something for you, and I wanted to give it to you, away from everyone else." Sarah smiled, took the gift, and then knit her brow.

"Why couldn't it be shown in front of the others?" she asked. "It's not going to pop up at me and then turn into a snake, is it?" Jareth laughed.

"No, it won't," he promised. "I just don't think anyone would understand its significance." Sarah unwrapped it, wondering what it could possibly be. Her jaw dropped when she saw a small music box with a little feminine figure in a pink dress dancing around to music. It was the same one she had when she was fourteen, and when she had faced the labyrinth. Everything was exactly the same, right down to the song it was playing.

"Oh, I thought I had lost this so long ago," she said. "I was devastated when I lot it. Wherever did you find it?"

"I found it in that dump you fell into after the haze I put you in. I supposed you just dropped it, and wanted to give it to you, yet I never found the time to do it. I even added a little something extra. See this button on the bottom? Press it." Sarah pressed the red button and smiled when the glass shimmered and Hoggle appeared.

"Hello, Sarah," he smiled. "Happy birthday!"

"Thank you, Hoggle," she replied, a huge grin on her face. "Wow, this is so great."

"Don't thank me, thank Jareth. I'll talk to you later." With that, his face disappeared. Sarah looked up at Jareth.

"Thank you so much," she said. "This means a lot to me." Jareth smiled.

"You're welcome, Sarah. Well, I suppose we should be getting down to the others." With a nod, they walked down the stairs, Sarah making sure that she left her gift from Jareth on her drawer.

A/N2: Well, not sure when the next update will be, but I will try. This is the only fic I am working on at the moment, so hopefully the updates will come quicker. Well, if I can get the inspiration for this one and not any others, that is. LOL! Always Hopeful
