Rating: T (M)

Sarah sat, weeping in darkness. "Why did he do it!" She wept. She felt something run across her leg. She squealed and inched back terrified. She continued to cry alone. She was contemplating "Is this any way to show love? How is any of this love?" She continued to weep.

Jareth woke in a cold sweat. "Why? Why does she torment me? Why is this silly girl always on my mind!" He got out of his bed and tried to shake off his nightmares. He went to his window and took in the cool breeze of morning. He stepped back and on the shards of glass from the crystal he shattered. He saw Sarah crying and fell to his knees.

He picked the pieces up in his hands. He looked at Sarah's terrified face in the darkness. He had a unfamiliar shot of emotion strike through his. Remorse? He had never felt any consequences before, why did he feel them now. He tried to talk himself out of the emotion. "She's getting what she deserves for breaking my heart." He said trying to ignore the sounds of her crying. He stood up making himself look strong.

He grabbed his cloak and ran down to the cellars to see Sarah.
