The New Queen

Chapter Sixteen

Krysta was sitting in the chair in the throne room bored; she was watching the goblins play with each other. She watched them chase chickens; some were getting drunk and throwing food around. She sighed deeply out of boredom.

"Is this what a goblin queen does all the time, very boring if you ask me" a male voice said

Krysta lifted up her head and smiled wide she stood up running towards him, she grabbed his hands and held them in hers" oh Farley, I am so glad you could come, I was so bored"

Farley looked worried "you sent for me, so what is so important?"

Krysta smiled at him than got down on one knee in front of him "Farley we knew each other basically our whole lives, I love you, I think I have always loved you. I would like for you to marry me"

Farley laughed at her, Krysta frowned at him, he helped her to stand up "Krysta I am flattered..." she interrupted him "but you don't want to marry me" she lowered her head and pouted

He lifted her head up "I do want to marry you, but you did it wrong" he told her

She looked at him confused "huh"

Farley got down in front of her on one knee "Krysta I love you, I always have, and will you marry me"

Krysta looked down at him "are you making fun of me?

"No, my dear, I am being serious" he tells her waiting patiently for her answer

Krysta smiled and replied happily "yes, yes, I will marry you"

They hugged each other happily, Krysta let go of him and moved back nervously.

"Are you okay?" he asked concerned

"Yes, I'm fine, I am just nervous. I'm not sure how Jareth and Sarah will react" she tells him

Farley stares at her anxious "I forgot about your uncle, perhaps I should have asked his permission first"

"Yes, but you didn't plan to ask me did you?" she asked

He shook his head slowly "no, well not yet anyway"

Krysta smiled "maybe we should tell them together" they were ready to disappear her voice stopped them "they had some good new recently, let's let them enjoy their news, then we can tell them ours"

"Okay" he agreed

Farley grabbed Krysta and started kissing her.

Sarah woke up to hearing Jareth whisper against her stomach, she giggled from the tickling of his breath on her bare skin.

She looked down at him "what are you telling our child?"

Jareth kissed her stomach, then he put his chin gently on her stomach, so he could look up at her.

"Just telling it, how much we love it, and what a good mother you will be" he tells her

Sarah frowned at him "I don't know about that, my mother left when I was young. What happens if I decide that, I was not fit to be a mother, and I take off?"

His pouting face mirrored her own "rubbish you will be a great mom. I will see to it" he told her

Sarah smiled down at him her tears glistening her eyes "thank you"

He crawled up her body; he laid his head down on her chest. Sarah held him tightly to her and kissed his head.

Krysta and Farley chose that time to appear in their room.

Jareth growled frustrated he lifted his head up to look at them "why is it every time, Sarah and I are having a lovely moment. You chose to visit us?"

Krysta lowered her head bashful, then raised it back up to look at him "sorry uncle but this is important"

Jareth stood up facing them "fine, what is it?"

Krysta looked at Farley who wasn't saying anything just staring at Jareth, he looked sick, like he would vomit at any moment. Krysta hit him gently with her elbow on his arm, he looked over at Krysta. She smiled at him.

"Oh right" he said then he looked back at Jareth, he walked up to him.

"Sir, uh... king sir. I would like to ask for permission to have your nieces hand in marriage" he gushed out quickly

Sarah got out of bed and stood next to Jareth smiling adoringly and the happy couple.

"You want to marry my niece?" he asked making sure he understood

"Yes sire" he said shyly

Jareth was quiet for a moment that worried them, he looked deep in thought. Sarah was afraid that he would say no.

Jareth then looked at Krysta and Farley and smiled happily "you have my permission"

Sarah and Krysta cheered happily, Farley shook Jareth's hand, Krysta hugged him.

Sarah put her arm around Krysta "we have a wedding to plan"

Jareth and Farley looked confused at them.

"Jareth, why don't you and Farley get some breakfast, and find something to do, we are going to be a while" Sarah told him

"But this is my room" Jareth grumbled

Sarah chuckled at him "I know honey, please do this for me" she even batted her eye lashes at him

Jareth mumbled "I don't see why I have to leave my own room" he walked out of the room followed by Farley
