AN: I do Not own the labyrinth or any of its characters. BEEP, BEEP, BEEP! The alarm clock screamed rhythmically. Sarah reached out and turned it off quickly while mumbling incoherently. She rolled out of bed as her brother, Toby, who was now 4-years old, knocked on her door. "Sarah! C'mon! We're going to be late for school! You're supposed to drive today remember?" he reminded as he continued knocking in a consistant and annoying rhythm. "I'm up, I'll be out in a few minutes and then we can go." She said as she brushed out her long hair and quickly threw it up into a messy knot in which she fastened with a butterfly shaped clip. She Got dressed quickly dressing herself in a pair of jeans, a tank top and a blouse that hung loosely over it. She observed herself in the mirror before running out the door, dashing back in a few moments later for her backpack. "Ready to go Toby?" she asked as she descended the stairs and grabbed a banana from the fruit bowl. Toby nodded, and they were on their way. Sarah sighed as she sat in the lecture hall as the professor went on about Shakespearean literature. She knew all the plays by heart from her pleasure reading in high school. As she absent-mindedly listened she was drawing a familiar image from what she thought was a dream, a very vivid dream from her teens. The arrogant eyes stared back at her from the page topped with untamed hair. The professor dismissed the class as she finished and she left without a moment to waste. She placed her new assignment on top of her binder as she put her books on the passenger seat. Turning on the radio, she groaned as she heard a very familiar tune, the lyrics singing, "I'll be there for you, as the world falls down." It was the song Jareth sang to her, but she was convinced after years of therapy, that it was all a very vivid dream. Yet the same argument always fought back saying but it was so real! "Oh God how I wish it was real so I could have a chance at him again." She wished aloud. It was one of those wishes that she had never said aloud until no. However as she said it she seemed to feel better. She pulled the vehicle out of the parking lot and drove home. Toby had some activity or the other after school so her father would pick him up after work. Which helped, seeing as she had a new project to get started on and two others to make sure were ready to hand in, but still it left a lot to wonder when she'd go to sleep at. Moments later she pulled into her driveway. She gathered her books up and went inside. Merlin barked happily as she entered. She let him out into the back yard. She grabbed her books and went to her room, opening the door to her room she absent-mindedly went to her desk as if it was the only thing that existed. "Hello Sarah." came a cool voice from behind her. She froze as she immediately recognized the voice. She slowly turned and saw the Goblin King in all his glory standing before her. His wild hair framing his face and his eyes which were much clearer and brighter than memory served. She simply sat in her chair speechless about what to make of the situation. He smirked arrogantly, "Well? You wished me here, now what?" he asked his voice still cool and calm. "I-I What?" She asked, "I didn't wish - oh... maybe I kinda did dint I?" She replied nervously to her own question. "But there is no way this can be real! The Labyrinth was all a dream and I must have fallen asleep in class another vivid dream caused by an overload of stress and lack of sleep." She ranted. He chuckled, "You can't tell me that you actually believe that." he teased. She shrugged, "I guess... I mean... OH! I don't know!" She groaned fighting her emotions from coming in. He crept in closer, "Then allow me to clear that up for you." he whispered as he came in closer to her face and pressed his lips against her's, his tongue tracing the space to her lips until her lips yielded and invited him in. His tongue explored the cavern as she explored about his. Oh God! How she wanted him, Grabbing his hair she brought him in closer. He was intoxicating and she began to wonder, was it all really real? Her eyes shot open and sprang back. "Holy Shit! Either I died and went to heaven or this is real!" She exclaimed. He smirked, " So what do you wish of me?" Jareth asked, "I answered your call as I always have. I hope however you don't misuse the power of a simple wish just to destroy me." he warned with a slight tone of resentment edging his voice. Sarah's mind was still processing all the events playing before her. Jareth, The goblin King was real, and now from a simple wish spoken aloud he was standing un her room willing to be her's. "The question is what do you want from me? There was always a catch to your wish granting if I'm not mistaken." she asked thoughtfully. "It's always been the same Sarah. Remember the last thing I said to you the last time we were in the same place together?" He asked. "Love me, fear me do as I say and I will be your slave." she recalled softly. "You want me to... you wanted me to stay with you then didn't you?" She asked slowly realizing what she was too young then to even comprehend back then. "I see you're not as foolish as you once were, but you're right, and you a foolish child back then, just wanted to be the hero. How does being the hero feel like after all these years?" He challenged. "I feel nothing to tell you the truth. Lonely, kinda happy, but all in all empty." she answered as she looked to the sketch on her desk. "I guess I took a lot more things for granted, including the weight of my words." she added shamefully. "She only finally learns when she's grown." he said to himself, "I still stand by my offer, I loved you only to have you destroy everything with six words, and yet for some reason I forgive you." he said as he pulled her into his chest. She felt safe for the first time in a while, "I lied that day Jareth." she said softly. "beg your pardon?" he asked. "I said the words to get my brother back and to be the heroine of the play i was reading." she explained. "oh Sarah... why do you think somehow I still aid in your wishes, don't think I didn't know, I knew you liked me and cared from how you were in the Crystal Ballroom. Taking the memory of your quest showed me your heart, but I needed you to choose me despite all else, but I can't fault you for family loyalty." he explained. Sarah looked up at him, "where do we go from here? What if I was to go with you? Will my family grieve, will they be planted with a false memory,or will i not exist in their eyes?" she asked. "It would be as if you simply disappeared. They would worry but eventually be forced to move on. he explained calmly. "so I'd have to make up an excuse for me being gone. I will do what I must, you gave me everything and I have yet to repay you for that. In a sense you are the one who has the power over me in which you haven't chosen to exercise... why?" she asked. He nodded, "I wanted you to chose me so that you wouldn't hate me for taking you from all you knew and loved. So I waited until you came to your senses and made the decision yourself."
