Once Sarah emerged from the bathroom after she got ready, she noticed Jareth was done up more than usual. All Sarah had on was another casual skirt and a tank top adorned with stylish sandals, while Jareth was wearing black breeches and boots as usual, but he had on a black sequined jacket with hints of gold in it over a black, high collared ruffled shirt.

"Umm, is there a reason why you're so dressed up?" Sarah asked. "I thought we were just having dinner?"

Jareth turned to her as he was fixing the collar on his shirt, and smiled.

"Tonight's supper will be held outside of the castle. I imagined it would be nice if we got dressed up for the occasion, so I got you a dress to wear."

Sarah raised her brows, and looked surprised. "You did?"

"Yes," Jareth answered. He walked over to his closet and pulled out a long sleeve, sleek, black gown and handed it to Sarah.

She took the dress from Jareth and tilted her head, giving him a skeptical look. "This must be a fancy dinner. Any particular reason why?" Sarah asked inquisitively.

"Isn't that what you do on Valentine's Day?" Jareth said rhetorically as he kissed Sarah's nose. "Go get dressed, then we shall be on our way."

Sarah smirked and went back to the bathroom to change. She couldn't believe how perfect the dress fit her and how beautiful it was. It was a long sleeve dress, and the front of it was quite modest as it had a square neckline, but the sexiness came from the back- the dress dropped into a low plunge, hitting just above the beginning of her tail bone. A gold crescent emblem hung on the back, and Sarah absolutely loved it. She left her hair down naturally, and put on some nude lipstick and kept her makeup smokey from earlier. Satisfied with her appearance, she walked back out into Jareth's bedroom where he was patiently waiting for her. He looked at Sarah with approval; he always was good at making her feeling beautiful.

"Precious, you look stunning," he complimented.

Sarah did a twirl for Jareth. "You like?"

"I love you in anything," Jareth promised. He walked over to Sarah and hugged her as he kissed her forehead. "Let's end tonight with a bang, as you always put it."

Sarah giggled. "Let's," she agreed.

Jareth sifted them to the forest, and Sarah noticed that this area was different from what she saw earlier. She looked around her and took in their surroundings; although it was nearly dusk, this part of the forest was much darker and actually looked more magical in a sense. Sarah's eyes stopped scanning when she saw that there was a beautiful flower arch made entirely from white roses leading to a pathway. Jareth came up behind Sarah and whispered in her ear.

"We go through there, Precious."

He took Sarah's hand and led her through the pathway to the table he and her friends set up yesterday. As they were walking, Sarah couldn't believe what she was seeing; rose petals all over the ground, lanterns hanging from the tree branches, candles lit in vases everywhere, and there were even fireflies to add to the lighting. She also noticed that there was a beautiful waterfall ahead of them and what looked like a table for two. The setup was striking and Sarah could scarcely believe this was all prepared for her by the man she loved. They stopped walking and Sarah felt Jareth leave her side.

"You did all of this for me?" Sarah asked misty eyed.

Sarah turned around when Jareth didn't respond right away and what she saw had her completely dazed and shocked. There, kneeling on the ground, was the love of her life who was holding a ring in his hand.

"Sarah Elizabeth Williams. I love you. So much. You are the light of my life and I know I could never go another day without you beside me. Would you do me the great honor of being my wife? My queen?"

Sarah had tears pooling in her eyes now, and was trying so hard to keep it together. She bit her lip to stop the tears, and Jareth stared at her anxiously waiting for a response. She hadn't expected this in the slightest; when she hinted for jewelry she had no idea Jareth would propose. But now that he was, Sarah could hardly contain her excitement. Of course she wanted to marry him; she knew without a doubt that he was her everything shortly after they reconnected. Yes it was abrupt, but Sarah didn't care; she just wanted Jareth. She wiped her eyes and smiled at Jareth.

"Yes, of course! Of course I'll marry you!" Sarah exclaimed.

Jareth stood up and hugged Sarah as he twirled her around. He set her down and put the ring on her left finger and Sarah looked at it closely. The band was rose gold and had rose gold diamond leaves and vines around it, with a square cut diamond in the middle. It was absolutely gorgeous and Sarah had never seen a ring quite like it; it was unique, like them.

"Jareth, this is… stunning," Sarah remarked. "Thank you. I love it."

"I had it made especially for you by the Elves; they're incredible craftsmen," Jareth explained. He took a deep breath. "I know this may be rather sudden, and because of that, I do not expect anything to be rushed. I assume you'd like to finish school first and travel, and then there's your family. I can wait as long as you need, Sarah. I just want you to be mine forever."

The tears were streaming from Sarah's eyes now, and she wiped them and laughed at herself for being such a cliché. "You're amazing, you know that? This is the most incredible gift, Jareth. You're the most incredible gift. I love you."

Sarah and Jareth kissed each other for several minutes, and Jareth was the first to break away.

"Happy Valentine's Day, Precious."

"Happy Valentine's Day, Babe."


THE END :) Sarah ends up giving Jareth his gifts too. If anyone is curious as to what Sarah got Jareth, I had just planned for it to be a customized frame with a picture of the two of them, and then a snowglobe with a castle in it, signifying where their love had originated.

Thank you to KBates, SarahlouiseDodge, and Sazzle76 for their reviews on this story. I hope anyone who didn't review but read this story liked it. I know it's a little fluffy but hey, it's Valentine's Day so why not? I'll be celebrating tonight by going to Taco Tuesday and playing bingo with one of my friends, as the boyfriend is on a work trip but I hope you couples out there have/had a splendid day!

Also, if you want to see what the dress Sarah wore looked like to a degree, type in Jennifer Connelly Donna Karan on google, and it's the first picture that shows up :)
