Sarah tipped the glass of juice up to her dry lips her emerald eyes never leaving the mismatched gaze of the goblin king.

Swallowing the rich taste of the juice she answered the question, "I did manage to sleep well thanks I guess , for asking I mean," she saw him smile in response to her nerves.

He could see that he affected her by the red blush of her cheeks yet how much he affected her he didn't know for certain.

He didn't say anything else as she kept on eating her morning meal. He was contempt just watching her the peace that was going on between the two was comforting in a sense.

Yet minutes later an abrupt pounding on the door made both pairs of eyes look up from their meals therefore breaking the silence between the two, "my sincerest apologies, but she insists on seeing you. "

Jareth stood up in outrage at whoever it was interrupting their morning fast, however all the anger died and his words died as well.

His mother, the High Queen of the Fae, made her grand entrance once again.

The High Queen entered kicking the small goblin by her feet away from her as if the goblin's presence alone was going to infect her, "my son, I had to come to meet the human who has captured your heart. " he could detect the lie as soon as she uttered it.

She wanted to see if he had used the love potion on Sarah as if he could. As if he would. If he did give in to her demands and Sarah somehow found out he used a potion on her any trust she had in him would be no longer and the goblin king didn't want to shatter the friendship he had made with her thus far.

"Mother, what are you doing here?!"

He questioned in anger.

His mismatched eyes went to Sarah. She stood up and bowed her head, "it's nice to meet you. "

The High Queen replied, "it's nice to meet you as well."

"It seems I've interrupted the morning fast so please don't stop on my account." She adds sweetly.

The two continue the morning fast - a servant brought out another plate and sat it in-front of the Queen.

The High Queen then added food to her plate. She paid mind to the two that sat with her their eyes downcast and lost.

She wiggled her sleeve up revealing a vile with glowing purple liquid as she grabbed ahold of the decanter that held the juice and quickly poured the contents of the vile into it.

"Sarah, it seems like your glass has run empty do you want me to refill it?"

Her head went up from her plate and smiled in reply holding her glass up as she waited for the High Queen to refill her glass.

While thinking, what is up with Jareth? His mother isn't at all bad.
