Chapter 14 (A chapter to follow thirteen…)

Sarah was in Dralking mode.

"That's weird." She said. "I thought Dralking only happened when you were asleep. I'm not asleep I'm only…" She remembered what she'd been doing. "Asleep. On a bed. With the Goblin King."

Sarah began banging her head against the desk, but this time it wasn't as effective, because you can't get hurt in dreams.

"What are you doing that for?" A familiar voice asked

"It's all your fault." She replied, without stopping. In fact, she began to hit harder and faster.

"I hardly think that's true. Really dear girl, you're the one refused to leave." Jareth said nonchalantly. Sarah stopped and stood up angrily

"I refused to leave?" She said angrily. Jareth smirked. "You're the one who said 'Sharah! Shtay with me!' You big baby. Now let me go, I'll probably be late to class."

"Me? A baby? You're the one who sent her baby brother into a labyrinth filled with goblins and horrible creatures…"
"And horrible goblin Kings!" Sarah interrupted. "You're the one who made me run the Labyrinth. Do you know how many times I almost died while in there?"

"Don't you understand?! You can't die while running the Labyrinth, no matter what; you will always make it home. And if you'd made it far enough, Toby probably would have gone with you."

"But I made it. I made it all the way. Past your goblins, horrible creatures, and I defeated you. I beat you." Sarah smirked. "That's it. That's why you've come back to haunt me. You were defeated by me, a mere human, and you can't stand it."

"You're not human, and that's not why I'm here!" Jareth yelled.

"What?" Sarah asked, surprised.

"I said…"

Sadly, they were interrupted by Dumbledore, who suddenly appeared next in a corner of the room.

"Why hello Professor Sidhe, Miss Williams. I thought you were sleeping, I just wanted to make sure you were…"

"GO AWAY!" Jareth and Sarah yelled.

"My word!" Dumbledore cried, taken aback by their 'sudden' outrage.

Suddenly, in another corner of the room appeared Snape.

"Professor Dumbledore, what on earth is going on here?" He cried.

"Why, it's professor Snape! What are you doing here?" Dumbledore said happily

"Well I was just teaching the fifth year Gryffindor students when I noticed our exchange student wasn't in class. I asked the students why she had not appeared yet, and they said she was taking care of Professor Sidhe. Well I came into the Dark Arts classroom and found his third year class waiting for him, and when I entered his quarters I found him and Miss Williams in bed together!" Sarah blushed

"Well, technically we were on a bed together, I'm pretty sure the covers weren't pulled up."

"Yeah, they kinda were. I woke up and I was cold, so I pulled the covers up…" Jareth said shyly.

"Idiot." Sarah muttered.

"I don't think you should be talking to your professor like that!" Dumbledore said, playfully wagging a finger at Sarah.

"I don't think she should be in bed with a professor, but that apparently isn't the issue here." Snape said sarcastically.

"Ok then, what is the issue here then?" Sarah asked.

"Ummm" Snape said, trying to find a way to get Sarah into the most trouble… 'Damn Gryffindors' he thought

"Ummm…" Dumbledore said, twirling the skirts of his robes.

Jareth said nothing. He'd conjured some crystals awhile back and had been entertaining himself with them ever since.

"Ok then, no problem here. Let's just forget the whole thing never happened, and never speak of it again." Sarah said.

"OK!" Dumbledore said, spinning around. "Bye!" He said happily, waggling his fingers and disappearing.

"This won't be the last you see of me." Snape said, disappearing.

"Well obviously, you are my potions teacher." Sarah said to the spot he'd just been standing in. "So, how do I get out of here?" she asked

"Just say, wake up Jeff." Jareth replied, still busy with his crystals.

"Wake up Jeff." Sarah said quickly.

"No you gotta say it louder, so he can here."

"WAKE UP JEFF!!!!!!!" Sarah yelled. "Wait a minute, I'm not Jeff!" She said. "How do I really get out of here?"

"Just sayteljesen éber

"This better be right." Sarah said, before saying the words.

Sarah opened her eyes, and realised that she was lying next to something warm, hard, and breathing.

She squealed and rolled off the bed.

Numair began to stretch out on the bed, his front paws and head peeking over the side to look at Sarah. Another familiar face appeared as well.

"Good morning." He said tiredly.

"It's not morning!" Sarah said. "It's almost the afternoon!"

"But still morning!" he protested

"Oh my god, I am so late! Come on Numy we gotta go!"

"Well, technically you don't have to…"

"SHUT UP!" She yelled. "Oh my god, Snape is going to kill me."

"Ok then, bye" He said yawning and flapping his hand.

"What is wrong with you?" Sarah asked, whirling around. It was then that she remembered the circumstances that had brought her into his bedroom. "Oh right, that whole 'you were drunk on the job' thing. Any other principal and you'd be kicked right out."

"Well maybe I don't want to be here." He said, sitting up and crossing his legs Indian style

"What do you mean?" Sarah asked, reaching out to pick Numy up from where he stood on the bed.

"Dumbledore tricked me into the job, I don't even get to make people run Labyrinths for entertainment!" he whined

Sarah rolled her eyes.

"Hogwarts is cool! It has to be better than being stuck in a castle full of goblins."

"True, he said." He said. Sarah raised an eyebrow.

"Yeah, ok then… I have to go to class now, at least attend one lesson today."
"Wait! What do I do?" he asked sadly.

"Well, seeing as how you're still half drunk, maybe you should go to your class and give them some reading or something. Pretend you're still half sane."

"Righto captain!" He said, saluting, then falling back onto the bed.

"Maybe I'll just find them something to do…" Sarah said, walking out and locking the door behind her. She left Numair in the room with him, as the puppy, still being a puppy, was fast asleep.

When Sarah was back in the DA classroom, she took a book from a student at the front of the room.

"Professor Sidhe is… unwell, so he asked me to give you something to do. Ummm" she said, flicking through the textbook. "Write an essay on the werewolf, and how to recognise one."

She rifled through the desk until she found textbooks for the other grades. She wrote instructions on the bored for the next classes and then continued on to Divination.

It's Monday… but it's over, so that makes it better!

Listening to As The World Falls Down on repeat is a lot of fun… I do it… all the time…

Is that sad?

I hope you enjoy this chapter! I haven't read any reviews, but I'll just say thanks in advance!

I hope you like all the SJ stuff I put in! I thought it was pretty funny myself… don't know about you.

As you Queen, I command you to have a nice day!
