Chapter 7: Is this goodbye my love?
Jareth slowly makes his way from the bed to Sarah."Ohh, yes, Sarah. You see I wanted to bring you somewhere that you cannot run from me."
Sarah side steps him. Backing up, trying to get away from him. The back of her legs hit the bed. Before she can move away from it, Jareth is in front of her. "What do you want from me?"
Looking her up and down Jareth smiles."What do you think I want Sarah?"
Looking down at herself she sees that she only has on a black slip that comes down to her knees. Looking him over.' He's doesn't have a shirt on. Ohh god'
"I'm not going to sleep with you Jareth"
Smiling to himself and to her. He takes the last steep to her." Why do you think that I have that in mind?"
With the bed behind her, and him so close to her. She can feel his body next to hers. She does the only thing that she can. Climbing over the bed to get away from him, but before she could get to the other side he is on top of her. He is sitting on her with a leg on each side.
She tries to push him off, but he takes both of her hands in one of his. Pinning them to the bed above her head he looks in to her eyes.
He smiles." I only want to talk Sarah. I'm not going to take anything that you don't want to give."
Trying not to let him see her fear."Then why are we in bed room, and why are you on top of me?"
Shaking his head as his smile fades." My sweet, this is the only place that no one will bother me., and I'm on top of you because you won't stand still long enough for us to talk."
Looking away from his face." Jareth please let me up?"
Touching the side of her face with his free hand. He looks into her eyes." Sarah, my sweet. I'm not going to hurt you. You have my word. I would never do and thing to harm you."
Closing her eyes, trying not to look in to his."What are you going to do with me?"
"Sarah if I want to take you I would have this mooring in your room, but I'm not like that. If that happens I want it to be because you want it too. All I want is for us to get to know each other. Is that too much to ask?"
Opening her eyes. She looks in to his." Why me? You could have any one that you want. So, why me?"
Letting go of her hands he moves to the other side of the bed."Because you're you. You took my breath away the first time I laid my eyes on you in the park, and you still do."
Laying next to her he rest his head on his hand."Every day since then I could not stop thinking of you. You rule my thoughts Sarah. No one else. Why would I want any one when I can have you? Hmm."
Not knowing what to say. She sits up. "How could you have felt that way about me then? I was a stupid little girl who had to have everything her way."
Pulling her next to him so she would look him in the eye." You are not, nor were you ever stupid. You have to have things your way, so do I. You are lonely, and so am I. I know who I want, and I want you Sarah."
Pulling away from him. She gets off of the bed. "I don' know what to say, I don't know what to think. This is just a dream."
Turning around she sees the look of hurt all over his face.
Pulling himself off of the bed he goes to her. Pulling her to him. He forces her to look him in the face." Yes, this, right now is a dream Sarah, but that's does not mean that what I am telling you is not true."
Looking into his eyes. Trying to hold back her tears."I don't know that Jareth. I only dream of you. Nothing else. I want what you're saying to be true, but when I wake up you won't be there. I will not go through life only feeling love when I am a sleep. I want it all the time. "
Closing his eyes. He takes a deep breath. "Sarah my sweet, It does not have to be like that. You could be here with me forever. I want you to be with me. Don't you want that to?"
Sarah tries to pull away from him, but he won't let her. "I can't believe you just asked me that. We hardly know each other, and you want me to leave everything up there for you. My friends, my family..."
"You have no family Sarah. Remember when your father died that woman took your brother, and left you. Without looking back. Is that family Sarah,...Is it??"
Hearing the anger in his voice. She pulled herself from him. Crying she turns her back so not to see his face. "That was low Goblin King. Even for you. I want you to stay out of my dreams Goblin King, and stay away from me."
Feeling really bad for what he said. He tries to holder, but she pulls away from him." I'm sorry Sarah, Please forgive me my sweet. I only meant to make my point."
Turning back around to face him. "You made your point Goblin King. I know I have no family left. I know that no one will ever want me, but that is no reason for you to pull this. I really thought you were different, but you're the same person you all ways have been. What did you really want from me. Hmm."
Trying his best not to lose his temper."Sarah everything I said was true. I do want you. I need you..."
"What you want is get back at me for wining at your game" After hearing that Jareth's face went to stone, and his eyes colder then she had ever seen them. Before she knew what happened. He was in front of her and her back was to the wall.
"Fine I will give you what you want. Never again can you call on me. Well you can, but I will never answer. Never again will you be able to see your friends from my Labyrinth. You have no more ties to this place. Is that want you want?"
She wanted to say something anything, but she could not find her voice. She tried to grab on to him. To pull him to her, but he pushed her hand away.
He was trying to keep it together. He didn't want her to know that she had torn his heart out. He turned to walk away, when she grabbed him.
"I'm sorry Jareth I..."
In the blink of her eye he had her up a gents the wall." Never say my name. You have no right to say it." With that said he walked away. Leaving her to her tears.

Waking up Sarah cried out in pain. it felt as if somebody had taken her sole, her hart, and her life. She curled into a ball, and cried like she had never cried before.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Goblin King got out of bed, and falls to the floor in such pain. He yelled out. Two goblins came running to his side. One name left his lips before he passed out "Sarah..."
