Chapter 4: The Roommate
1992(the last time I use dates promise, I just use it to show the timeline, which is important) Sarah walked into her apartment closing the door behind her; she looked around noticing how quiet it is, "Hello, anyone home" she called out through the whole apartment "I'm in my room" the voice called back Sarah smiled and walked into her roommate's bedroom, she watched her friend with long blonde wavy hair falling down to the middle of her back, sitting at her vanity table looking in the mirror and applying makeup. "Desiree, are things not going good at the castle" Sarah guessed since Desiree only came here, when things at the castle were bad. "What makes you say that my dear" Desiree looked at Sarah through the mirror and started to apply dark red lipstick, with her light complexion it makes her look very pale. "Well you only stay here for long periods of time, when things at the castle stress you out" Sarah said smiling at her Desiree reached for her brush started brushing her hair while she was talking "my dad's fiancé is driving me crazy, always calling me a kid" she than noticed Sarah's reflection and how her head bent down sadly. Desiree paused in brushing her hair "I'm sorry Sarah, Maybe I shouldn't talk about this" she said sadly Sarah raised her head sharply and made eye contact with Desiree through the mirror. "No, its fine…I'm fine" Sarah said trying to be strong. But Desiree smiled sadly for her friend knowing that she was holding back tears. "Okay" Desiree said than stood up, looking at Sarah "how do I look" Desiree did a little twirl, than faced Sarah. Sarah smiled at her, she couldn't believe how grown up Desiree looked; they have been friends since she was eleven. "Your father is going to kill you" Desiree smiled at her "yes, but do I still look like a kid" Sarah looked at her for a while "no, you look like a very grown up sixteen year old" Desiree looked at the crystal in the palm of her hand and replied "good, I want to show my future step-monster, that I am not a kid" Sarah looked at her confused, because Desiree has never said anything mean about anyone before "I thought you liked her?" Desiree looked at her "that bitch no way, she makes your step-mother look like a saint" Sarah looked at her sadly never knowing that things were that bad between her and her future step-mother. "Karen isn't that bad" "I know I like Karen, always have" Desiree said back she hugged Sarah and disappeared Sarah turned around to go into the kitchen, when she felt a cold breeze behind her, she turned around slowly. She saw a woman with brown hair pulled up into a bun, wearing a beautiful brown gown, she had her hands on her hips smiling at Sarah. "Hello Arlene" Sarah greeted happily. She always gets people coming up here from the underground, everyone but Jareth, she hasn't seen him in 6 years. What would she say if he did come" Jareth, remember six years ago when I broke your heart, so sorry about that, can you ever forgive me" she thought than laughed to herself "yeah that would go over well, he'll probably have me bogged" "Sarah" Arlene greeted Sarah back; she saw her laugh to herself and wondered what it was about. Sarah looked at her knowing that she was probably looking for Desiree. "Desiree left already Arlene looked at Sarah than replied in a gentle voice "actually my dear, I came here to see you" Sarah was curious as to why the Queen of the underground wanted to see her "What about?" The queen studied Sarah who looked sad "I take it you heard about my son's upcoming wedding?" Sarah looked at the queen sadly and replied "yes I heard" Arlene looked at Sarah sadly "how do you feel about that my dear?" Sarah thought about it for a minute "if Jareth is happy, than I am happy for him" Arlene could tell that Sarah was trying to be brave, she was trying so hard to cover up her sadness and jealously, but the queen could see right through her mask. "He's not happy Sarah" the queen says looking at Sarah for her reaction. She looked at the queen "he's not, then why is he marrying her?' she asked the queen "I'm making him" Arlene replied smiling at Sarah only because she knows this is bothering her, and is hoping that Sarah will admit her true feelings, so her son wouldn't have to marry Bethany, who is only after the title, doesn't love Jareth or Desiree like she knows Sarah does. Arlene really loves Sarah like she was her own daughter, she has known Sarah for 5 years, and her granddaughter adores Sarah, they are more like sisters than best friends. "Why would you do that?" Sarah's voice cut through her thoughts. "Jareth needs a queen, Desiree needs a mother, and I would like more grandkids" Arlene said looking at Sarah. Than at her watch "oh Sarah I have to go dear" the queen said than quickly hugged Sarah and vanished. Sarah sat down on her couch thinking all she could hear in her head playing over and over again, that Jareth wasn't happy and it still gave her hope that maybe she could be with him. Arlene met Desiree in the hallway and they both walked into the ballroom together. "I am so glad my mother and daughter finally decided to grace me with their presences" Jareth smiled and teased them Bethany had long curly strawberry blonde hair; it goes down to her waist. She stood next to Jareth, acting more like he was a possession than going to be her husband. Always hanging all over him. Just the way she looked at Arlene and Desiree you know she hated them. She was what people might call a snob. "As you can see son, we are both fine" his mother reassured him "I just worry about Desiree going up there" Jareth said in a concerned voice he then looked at Desiree's face " what have I told you about wearing makeup" Jareth's voice took on that don't defy me tone, but not so evil more in a fatherly tone. "But Papa, it makes me feel pretty" Desiree whined to him Jareth smiled at her, he could never be mad at his little girl for too long. He put his hand under her chin to get a closer look at her face. "This is obviously Sarah's influence" Desiree smiled at him when he said that, he let go of her chin and walked back to stand next to Bethany. Desiree and her grandmother shared a secret smile. Bethany noticed Jareth looking sad after he mentioned Sarah, but quickly hid it away, since he always said emotions make you weak. Bethany caught it. "Who is Sarah, an old lover" she asked curiously Jareth looked at her calmly" no, she's no one darling" he then kissed her hand and they walked around the ballroom. Desiree rolled her eyes disgustingly, Arlene laughed at the gesture.While AFF and its agents attempt to remove all illegal works from the site as quickly and thoroughly as possible, there is always the possibility that some submissions may be overlooked or dismissed in error.
