~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Sitting in silence, you know you should get used to being alone.  Deep
down you know you always have been, but there still was that slight
glimmer of hope.  Then your senses kick in and you find yourself wondering
if there is anyone out there who will see past your facade. 

Taking a deep breath, you clear your mind of such silly nonsense, already
sure that your destiny includes loneliness.  You can feel the warmth of
your tears as they silently trickle down your cheeks, but pay them no
heed.  At least your tears are real, tangible, and there when you need
them.

Wrapping your arms around yourself, you find solace in pain and solitude.
Thinking nothing can ever touch you again, your mood lightens a bit and
relief sets in.  No more having to worry if you fit in, or if by some
miracle you might find love.  You have yourself and that is all that
matters.

A soft touch on your shoulder causes you to jump.  Turning around, you
catch his gaze and can see the concern written across his features.
Turning away from him, not wishing to hear him, you hum softly to
yourself, afraid of what he'll say.  When no words come, you glance at him
to see him staring back silently.

"I know what you are going to say," you whisper softly.

"Do you?" he replies, his eyes twinkling mysteriously.

You don't reply.  Though the silence brought you a new awareness, you are
glad he's there.  Perhaps all you needed was someone to take the time to
notice your despair.  For the first time, in a long while, a smile touches
your lips. 

"That's better," he states softly.  "You shouldn't do this to yourself."

"Do what?" you inquire, feeling the dreadful feeling leave your tired
mind.  So many times had you wished that you wouldn't have to think
anymore, just because it would be so much easier.

"Wallow in self pity," he answered bluntly.

Shocked, you look at him, knowing he is right whether you agree or not.
Unsure of what would happen, you take a step closer.  Wrapping your arms
around him, you lean against him in comfort not wanting to be alone any
longer. 

"There now," he whispers softly, his breath brushing past your ear.
"Everything will be fine, you'll see."

"I want to believe that," you reply, your voice barely noticeable.

"Then do," he states. 

Feeling his arms encircle you, a contented sigh escapes your lips.
Leaning against his warmth, you feel calm and at peace.  All you needed
was a little bit of caring and here was the Goblin King showing it to you.
Your mind whirls as your emotions pour forth releasing all your pent up
tension you have been holding.

Your tears, hot and full of sorrow, now flow freely down your cheeks
ignoring your stubbornness.  Not wanting to cry in front of him, you push
him away and quickly wipe the tears away.  Looking up at him, you see him
looking back at you, his eyes full of tenderness and compassion. 

He takes a step closer to brush your hair out of your face.  You know he
can see you've been crying, your eyes feel hot and puffy.  This isn't your
idea of loveliness, but somewhere in the back of your mind you know that
it doesn't matter.  He doesn't care. 

"Jareth, I-" you begin softly, not sure what you want to say.

"Shh..." he tells you, placing a long finger to your lips.  With a warm
smile, he leans forward to lightly brush your forehead with his lips.

An electric shock fills you as his lips send a fire down through your body
at the slightest touch.  You feel your knees weaken when his moist lips
reach yours, kissing you deeply with a passion that not many people
possess.  His arm slides around your back, pulling you closer and your
mind screams out in pleasure.  You never once thought that something as
simple as a mere kiss could effect you so. 

His hands now work their diligence on the buttons of your shirt, though
you can't seem to think them fast enough.  His fingers trail across your
skin, pushing your shirt slowly from your shoulders, his hands slipping
down your arms making you shudder.  You look up into his face as his hands
find the clasp on your bra, releasing your bosom to his sensual caresses.

As his fingers work their magic, you give yourself to pleasure and thank
the heavens above for just one night of happiness.  No matter what happens
after tonight, you know deep in your soul that you are never going to be
alone again. 

Your breath catches in your throat as his mouth latches onto your breast.
Swirling his tongue expertly, he brings so many feelings to the surface as
you wrap your fingers in his long blonde mane.  Soaking up every ounce of
love he puts forth, you find a new awareness that you had kept hidden deep
inside yourself that bursts free and into the light of knowing. 

You drop your lips to gently kiss the mass of golden hair that adorns his
head, feeling his hands sliding down your body.  Gently pulling at the
shirt that covers his chest, it raises up to finally come free leaving you
access to his bare skin.  Feeling his skin against your skin is almost
enough to drive you insane but still you want more.

Forgetting the long since feeling of sadness and grief, you give in to the
lust that consumes your soul, running your hands across his bare chest.
Pulling his face to yours, you kiss him deeply, wanting to feel the
pleasure that was just out of reach.  You have longed for so long to have
him for just one night, and here he was now, ready to give you what you so
desired with no strings attached.  Just a little love and nothing in
return.  Overwhelmed by the whole idea, you don't stop.  Instead, you find
yourself pushing forward to take what you want.  You want him and will not
stop until he is yours.

Your hands grip the band of his tights as you push them downward slowly to
reveal his manhood already enlarged and much bigger than you imagined.
Looking up into his incredible eyes, all your fears are silenced as you
finish what you began.  Tossing his tights gingerly to a nearby chair, you
smile as you run your hand up the inside of his thigh and can sense him
quivering beneath your touch. 

Without warning, he pulls you to him once again, holding you in a loving
embrace.  His hands roaming freely across your shoulders, your back until
finally they rest upon your hips.  The roughness of his bulge rubs against
you as he pulls your hips closer to him, showing you what is to come.

As your pants are freed, they slip slowly down your legs followed by a
pair of nimble hands.  The intoxication you feel at the closeness of him
is amazing.  You never imagined that you would ever feel this way.  The
last shred of cloth standing between you and him is removed swiftly
without a second thought.  A hand sends shivers coursing through your body
as it strokes your secret treasure that has been buried away from
predators.  For he is no predator; not tonight.  Tonight, he is love.

He gathers you up in his arms in one swift move, capturing your lips with
his in a searing kiss.  The fluttering in your stomach increases with each
step he takes until finally he places you gently upon the bed bringing
himself down beside you.  His inviting smile warms you and makes you feel
at ease. 

"Jareth," you say, your voice full of anxiety.

"Shh.  No need for words.  This is a time for love," he replies, slinking
down the length of your body.  His hands on your knees, he gently pushes
your legs apart bringing a gasp from your lips. 

Glancing at him you see him smile, his eyes twinkling mischievously just
before he drops from your sight.  All at once you feel his mouth encircle
your womanhood and cry out in rapture.  His hands on your hips hold you
immobile as he bombards you with such sweet torture.  His tongue laps
insatiably at your core, as his lips bear down to add suction to your
blissful torment.  Nipping at your nether lips, he continues his assault,
filling you with a flaming desire that reaches beyond anything you could
possibly imagine until finally ever cell in your body seems to explode all
at once sending bolts of electricity shooting off through every inch,
every nerve in your body.  Quaking from the uncontrollable desire that he
has induced, your body shakes involuntarily, a feeling of ecstasy invading
your soul.

As you slowly return to serene existence, your mind is filled with the
simplest of thoughts.  You aren't alone, and someone out there loves you
without any hesitation.  Smiling, your eyes focus on the face of the man
that has brought such peace into your world.  Gently touching his cheek,
you realize you aren't dreaming.  A smile touches his lips as he leans
down to kiss you once again, ready to show you the extent of his many
years of knowledge. 

Sensing his rod prodding your femininity, you intake sharply fully aware
of what he intended to do.  Feeling his tip slide in, you close your eyes
waiting for what lies ahead.  Breathing in deep, his rod fills your core
leaving no vacant space.  You are at the mercy of his will, and at this
moment you can't think of anywhere you would rather be.

He moves slowly within you, his strokes even and deliberate.  Finally
looking at him, you see his smile that seems to radiate from the
connection between you.  His lips find yours once again as he keeps his
leisurely pace, intent on showing you the ultimate pleasure that is just
waiting out of reach. 

Arching your back you take him deeper, loving the feel of him inside you;
rubbing, throbbing, pulsing as he takes his time to make you delirious
with rapture.  He seems to know just what buttons to push as he moves
within your depths, touching every nerve deep inside you.  You feel as
though you are on fire, his strokes only adding to the blaze that emerges
deep within you that grows with each passing moment. 

His steady breathing falls on your ears as you moan softly from blissful
movements of him deep inside you.  Your mind screams out as your body
gives in to him, matching his rhythm.  He begins to move faster, his hands
ravaging your body.  Knowing you won't be able to stand much more, you
feel a sudden urge to wrap yourself around him and let him run his course.
Your hands fall to his posterior squeezing tightly as the muscles deep
within you seem to spark to life with a will of their own. 

Jareth groans as he pushes himself deeper and harder than before, wanting
to reach his breaking point and give you what you so desire.  His breath,
now ragged, falls on your ears but you pay it no heed.  All you know is
that you're about to burst from the inside out with no control over it,
but anxious for it to come.   

Suddenly you feel a tightness as your muscles clench and seize his organ,
squeezing with such pressure that you hear him cry out in elation.  As the
muscles work him, pumping him for all he's worth, you feel him slide out
briefly before plunging himself deeply into you one finally time setting
off a chain reaction that makes you scream in delight. 

The blazing white light that fills your eyes, only adds to the bliss that
fills you as you soar higher than you dreamed imaginable.  His hot seed
flows into you, filling you up with warmth as his will breaks and he joins
you in your flight of ecstasy. 

Jareth slips from you, his energy spent, and pulls your sweaty body close
to his.  His scent fills your senses, and you breathe deep.  You hear him
humming softly as your eyes slip shut.  A smile on your lips, you're
content and happy for you know that loneliness is not an option in your
life.  As long as you have doubts, you know you're living and that simple
fact is what will drive you to persue your dreams; and simply knowing that
you have your friends and Jareth, you will never be  alone.  His soft
melody relaxes your mind as you slowly drift off to sleep in his arms, not
afraid to face tomorrow; unafraid of the future.
