Easy Come, Hard to Go

AN: You know the drill... He’s tied in my shower now... *smiles*

Chapter 4

“What kind of surprise, m’lord?” Didymus asked quietly.

“One you are sure to appreciate. I have brought the Lady Sarah back to the
Underground.”

“Sarah, friend.” Ludo said loudly.

“May we sees her m’lord?” Hoggle asked hurriedly.

Jareth’s erection flared up again as he thought of the occurrence that he had just left
from. “No, I am afraid she is still... well...”

“If anythings ‘appened to her Jareth, I swear,”

“You swear what, Hogwart? She if fine. But, the magic had drained her energy. She will
need time to heal. She is not used to her surroundings yet and,”

“Shes didn’t come by herself did shes, Jareth?”

Jareth waited a moment, deciding whether or not to lie. “No, Hoggle, she didn’t.” Jareth snapped back.

“You bastard.”

In a flash the unforgiving king had Hoggle by his throat. “She is MINE Hoggle. I had
every right to fetch her.”

Hoggle kicked and pulled at the hands around his throat. “You can say shes yours all
yous wants, but until I hear it from her mouth, I’s wont believe you.”

“Please, calm down my friends,” Didymus called from the side, “As long as the lady is
alright, we can part happy.”

“Yeah... Sarah ok?” Ludo asked.

Letting Hoggle fall to the ground Jareth shook his head. “She is fine Ludo. Now, I have
some... matters to attend to. I will call for you when she awakens.”

And with a wave of his hand, the three disappeared.

“Insolent fools, they have the indecency to even question MY actions.?”

A loud crash pushed through the kings monologue. Jareth turned to find a goblin
scuttling down the stairs.

“M’lord. The lady, she’s awake.” The goblin looked scared shitless and scream ripped
past his trembling body.

*Shit.* Jareth thought, and with that he appeared outside the door.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

“M’lord, word from the Goblin Kingdom scout. He says your brother has a very upset
lady in the house. Apparently, she is mortal.”

“A mortal? Fetch me my falcon and some parchment.”

*A mortal? What a pity.*

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Jareth stretched a hand towards the wooden door. With a deep breath he pushed open
the door and stepped through. He braced himself for the worse or at least he thought
he had. Swearing loudly as the chunk of wood hit his arm, he looked up in the direction
the foreign object flew from.

“YOU ARROGANT PIG! WHERE THE FUCK AM I? WHAT THE FUCK AM I DOING
HERE? TELL ME NOW OR SO HELP ME, I WILL CASTRATE YOU RIGHT NOW!”

Jareth slowly took in the sight before him. There stood his beloved Sarah in her make
shift toga, red from yelling and she was pissed. He looked at the arm chair in pieces on
the floor and matched the leg that had been thrown at him to the shattered pieces on
the floor.

“Sarah, calm down.”

Quick as lightning, Sarah was beside him. With all her might she hauled back and
slapped him for all she was worth. “You bastard!” *Slap* “WHY.AM.I.HERE?”

Jareth rubbed his now red and close to bleeding cheek. Sarah lifted her hand to smack
him again, but before she even hauled back all the way, Jareth had her pinned to the
wall.

“My lovely Sarah,” he whispered barely touching her lips, “why would you call me such
names?”

Sarah’s stomach lurched as his warm lips brushed up against hers. Her mind lost its
train of thought for a moment, but quickly recovered.

“Because, you jackass, who do you think you are? Coming into MY house and taking
me away from my family?”

“I,” Jareth replied snapping her hands into shackles that she hadn’t noticed on the
wall,”am the Goblin King. I can do whatever I please.” He turned sharply and looked at
her. She was struggling to keep her toga on. “Who do you think you are questioning
me?”

Sarah thought for a moment. *His pride, take it out* A sadistic smile played across her
lips. “I, you ungrateful asshole, am the mere mortal who KICKED YOUR LABYRINTH’S
ASS and then turned you down when you offered me what you THOUGHT were my
dreams. Pah, like I could really ever want anything you had to offer.”

Before she could blink, Jareth was on her like STD’s on a prostitute.

“Tsk tsk tsk... you speak so harshly towards me? And yet I see no fear in your eyes. Do
I not frighten you?”

“HA! You frighten me? The only thing I’m frightened of is your pants getting any
tighter.”

Jareth blushed a little but closed the gap between them. He slowly ran his tongue along
the lower lip of her mouth. “You, my dear, are one of a kind.”

“Why Jareth? Was that a compliment?” she asked quietly, her sanity slowly slipping
from her clutches as her sensual side began clawing its way up.

“Mmm...” Jareth smiled against her mouth, “I do not give out compliments.”

He moved his head in and bit at Sarah’s lips playfully. Sarah felt herself slowly opening
her mouth to moan.

“No... stop...” she only half meant.

“Are you sure?” he asked in her ear, lightly licking the inside.

Sarah try to swallow the moan as the last of her sane side was buried under her sultry
side.

“Jareth, I...I” Sarah couldn’t take the pressure she was feeling. She didn’t like him. She
hated him. He just kidnapped her and had her shackled to wall. She didn’t like this did
she?

“Your being awfully quite.” He stated, pulling her out of the shackles and into his arms.
Sarah smiled slightly.

“Ahh, a smile,” he said pulling her closer,”Is that an invitation?”

Sarah wasn’t in her body anymore. She felt Jareth’s arms enclosing her slowly and
opened her mouth to object and call him another name, but found it already full. Jareth
was closer than she had anticipated and when she opened her mouth to object, Jareth
took the opportunity to glide his tongue in her mouth, kissing her with a driving force.

She let her tongue out and explored the king’s mouth, letting her emotions out. She felt
his sharp fae teeth, gliding her tongue over them slowly and a little tinge of pain as a
little slice was made in her tongue. Jareth tasted the metallic taste of Sarah’s blood and
it drove him deeper into her mouth. Sarah opened her eyes slightly and notice they
moved to the bed.

“Whoa, hold it there a second,” Sarah gasped as she pushed Jareth off her, “Just what
the hell do you think your doing?”

“Just what your dreams hold.” Jareth smiled.

Sarah bit her lip thinking about all the dreams she had had over the years. Could he
really know about those? Those were just childish fantasies. Sure she had a crush on
him WAY back then, but she had moved on, hadn’t she?

“Yes Sarah, those dreams.” He whispered climbing over her.

“What are you going to do to me?” she asked.

Jareth smiled.

“Jareth...”

Jareth ducked his head and nuzzled her neck. “Only what your dreams tell me to.”

“Jareth, please...”

He bit her neck playfully, “You know you want it.”

Sarah didn’t know what to do. *He just kidnapped you and now your all gun hoe about
him taking you right here, right now?* She swallowed. *But, I’ve wanted this so bad for
so long.* *HE JUST STOLE YOU FROM YOUR FAMILY!* Her logical self yelled at her.

“Jareth,” she breathed as he teased her breast through her toga,” please,” she
pleaded.

Jareth lifted his head and looked into Sarah’s eyes. Confusion, passion, worry, and was
that love he saw swirling along with them?

“Yes?”

“I...” she took a deep breath,” I love you.”

Jareth paused, a confused look dawning on his face, wondering if he heard her
correctly.

*Great, good job you fucking idiot. You tell him you love him and he looks at you like
your stupid. Did you actually think he could love you? He stole your brother and just
kidnapped you. Did you even think that maybe he was using you?*

A loud knock interrupted the session.

Jareth silently cursed the noise and got off the confused looking Sarah.

“What is it?” he yelled with a great tone of anger.

“A letter had just arrived, m’lord.”

Jareth’s anger toppled over. “That’s what you bothered me for? A letter?” Jareth
bellowed as he swung the door open.

A groveling goblin squeaked out,” It’s from Micheal.”

Without another look to Sarah he dashed out of the room.

“What the hell?” Sarah yelled.

“M’lady. News from another Kingdom.”

“URGH! I WANT SOME ANSWERS!” she yelled and hopped off the bed, the toga
completely falling off her.

“Oh my!” the goblin squeaked, “I will send in a servant with some dresses. I beg your
pardon, m’lady.”

Covering herself with a large pillow, she nodded as the little Goblin scuttled off.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Toby sat straight up in bed, yelling at the top of his lungs,”NO SARAH! Why did you tell
him? Why?”

Toby’s dad ran into the room and grabbed his sobbing son.

“Toby, what’s wrong?”

“Dad, Sarah, she’s not coming back! She told him, now he wont even think about letting
her go!”

“Toby enough with the bullshit. Stop making up this stuff.”

Toby gasped and pointed to the doll. Before their eyes, the mini Sarah’s clothes
changed from the regular jeans and T-shirt to an elegant gown.

“Toby, what is this?”

“She’s gone dad.”

“Where did you get this Toby?”

“Jareth left it.”

Toby’s dad looked at the doll and stood up.

“Toby, answer me truthfully. Where is Sarah?”

Toby looked directly into his dad’s eyes.

“Jareth’s got her. She’s in the Underground.”

“Toby, that’s just in the book.”

“No dad, its not. It’s real. I’ve been there. Sarah’s been there, I told you.”

Toby stared at his father for what seemed like forever. Slowly his dad’s emotions
changed.

“Where is that pendant, Toby?”

“On my nightstand. Why?”

“Go back to sleep Toby.” he said kissing him on the forehead.

Toby watched his dad grab the pendant and head downstairs.

*Can this be real?* He thought to himself, tracing his hand over the pendant. *Only one
way to be sure*

He walked to the kitchen and took down a phone book from the shelf. He paged
through the Yellow Pages until he found the Number he as looking for.

“Yes, hello, is this Fae Cove? Is Crystal there? This is Mr. Williams Crystal. Can you
come over to my house please? Your not going to believe this.”
