Jareth!

Chapter 6

Chapter 6, Peaches & Cream

Jareth's POV!

Jareth was furious. He gave his gold back. What more could he possibly do? He wanted nothing more then to win Sarah's heart. It was clear it could not be bought.

Her mother was going to have the ball later that night. And she was going to meet that awful King Torto. The other goblin king. Jareth was not about to lose his kingdom to have his queen go to him!

Besides he could not love Sarah the way Jareth did. He invested so much of his heart. His time. All to Sarah. She had to be his bride. She had been promised to him.

Now for what? He was jipped on it. He was going to make sure Sarah would have to wed him. Then he would make her love him. If only there was a spell to make someone love you.

But hearts could simply not be toyed with. It just was not allowed. Jareth sat in his chair and pouted. His heart was broken over Sarah. He had to do something about this. Once she laid eyes on Torto then well he might lose her.

The other king had much more to offer Sarah then he did. Torto promised if he got to wed Sarah, he planned on throwing Jareth in jail out of his site. They had once made a bet on who could win Sarah's pure heart.

Not it was not a game. Now he wanted her. Only her heart. It was not a game to him. He was losing time. And getting nothing out of it. It made him furious. One girl could make him lose it all. Everyone around him knew he was losing it. It all.

"Jareth a girl is here" mentions a goblin to him.

"A girl?" he mutters.

"Sarah?" another goblin says.

His heart skips a beat. Sarah had come to him? He feels his heart light up. His heart races.

"Let her in" orders Jareth. "she will be your queen one day" he points out.

Sarah wanders in finally looking like his pure true queen. All dressed up. He could not take his eyes off her beauty. He wanted her so badly. He waited upon her. She had a bag in her hands. The gold.

"I bring this to you. This was rightfully yours" she tells him. "I could not let mother keep it"

"I do not want it" he mutters.

"But you need it mother told me all about it. Are you in trouble Jareth?" she worries.

"Nothing I can't handle. We are fine" he lies.

His pride would not tell her a thing.

"You still can't trust me with the truth though everyone else has told me otherwise?" she scolds him.

"What do you want from me Sarah?" he challenges her.

They glare at one another.

"Stop being so stubborn. Take help. And take this back" she orders.

"You told me I only care about the money. So, I shall not take a dime of that money" he tells her. "Be gone shall you. Don't you have a party soon to attend?" he scolds back. "you shall be late princess"

"Jareth I am worried. Sincerely worried. Please take this and save this place" she begs as she places the bag of coins in his hands.

She had a very worried look in her pretty eyes. Making his heart ache. He feels so frustrated with it all. He had to prove it was not the money he wanted. She had to see.

It was her he wanted!

He grabs her then he was not sure what comes over him. Her eyes grow wider as they look up at him. He claims her kiss on his lips. Tenderly but roughly kissing her. She kisses him back. She had to feel everything in that kiss. Did she care? The kiss was pure. Tender. His heart was thrilled.

She backs away. "Jareth..." she stutters. "you are beyond help" she snaps.

He grows angered. He tosses the bag from her hands to the ground. The coins scatter.

"Take them back they have no use for me. I do not need them" he states.

"You stubborn man! I mean....goblin. Ugh! I am done with you" she argues.

She picks up the gold. Then heads rushing out of there. He felt so much more in that kiss. She was hiding her feelings in that kiss.

She cared deeper than he had hoped. Maybe she did love him. He felt so much in one kiss. His lips tingles from her gentle lips on his. He wanted to run after her. Declare his love. But he had much to prove first.

"What did you want Jareth? Sarah almost saw me come in" Hoggle asks him as he enters.

"Hogwart, I want you to give this to Sarah right before the party tonight" he orders Hoggle. He hands him a peach like the last time.

Hoggles eyes grow wide. He shakes his head. "No sir you tricked me the last time. I won't hurt Sarah"

"You still owe me Hogwart. If Sarah marries that other king we are all in danger. Sarah as well you know how dangerous that man is" warns Jareth. "this if for her own good"

"But I can't" argues Hoggle.

"You shall! Or into the swamp you go" orders Jareth. "eternal stink forever" he tells him a reminder.

"Fine. Fine I will do it" says Hoggle.

He takes the peach.

"But it is going to help Sarah?" asks Hoggle.

Jareth nods. "To get my queen here. We will win"

"Alright. I will do it" sighs Hoggle. "I hate this" he mutters then he hobbles away.

Jareth smiles. Sarah will be dancing in his arms again and to out of it to be around the other king. He would see to that.

And he would make that Queen see that Sarah was always his. She was perfect for him in every way. He was going to marry his princess. Things were taking time that was all. But time was a thing Jareth did not have to waist. He could not afford to waist time.
