Underground (Jareth X Reader)

23

When I say I got writers block after writing last chapter...like I know what to do but I need a filler chapter to connect them.

Thankfully, miss @Brianna_Chance2 came to my rescue once again to help me write it! She's always there for me, y'all. She deserves the proper credit for this one.

Jareth's POV

I swear that Y/N is almost as stubborn as her mother. But gosh I wish I never let her go when I had the chance. Then maybe I wouldn't be in this mess, and Y/N wouldn't be mad at me. I shouldn't have made Sarah pick between making her stay and letting Y/N go, and well vice versa. But I am a, how do you say, an evil, cruel king.

Your precious heart, can't watch it break. So I close my eyes while you walk away. Can I have a second chance, can I have another dance, can I start another life with you? These thoughts have been running through my head ever since I looked into Y/N's eyes, and truly saw her. Not just her facial expression, no she looked brave.

But when I looked into her eyes, I could see the hurt, and fear in them. I would never actually drop her off a cliff. Obviously if my grip slipped, then I would reverse time to a point where we weren't near the cliff. I hate having feelings, they disgust me. Maybe I should check on Y/N's daughter, you know, to see if she is still suffering.

I started walking to where the little brat is kept. "Ugh, what do you want now?" she said, rolling her eyes. I ought to snap my fingers to drop her into the bog of eternal stench just to teach this young lady some manners.

"Keep up with this attitude, and I will teach you a lesson Agatha."

"I'm not scared of you. I know my mother is here to save me because she loves me. Oh I'm sorry, you don't know what love is." What is it with the women in my life telling me I don't know what love is? "Hmm, how unusual."

"What is?" I asked wondering what she was talking about.

"Something happened when you left, and it left you pondering about something. Maybe a past choice, or maybe you saw how close my mother is getting to the castle. It scared you because that means she'll win and, you'll lose." This girl is too smart for her own good. "Just like Sarah defeated you, my mother will too."

"Listen, just because your grandmother defeated me doesn't mean your mother can."

"Wait, Sarah is my grandmother?" Agatha said with shock in her voice.

"How did you not-...Oh I can't stand you right now." I said as I left her to be alone again.

I decided to sit in my throne room to think of ways on how to torture Y/N:

- Use the fireys (they worked to annoy Sarah, so it should work on Y/N)

- Show Y/N that her daughter is enjoying her time in my castle.

What else could I do? Maybe I should walk around the castle to clear my mind.

I found myself strolling for hours, getting lost in my castle. I haven't been in this part of the castle in years.
