We found a few day old kitten so I will be busier than normal, not that I have a regular update anyway. Also, this chapter contains concepts that may not coincide with your opinion.

Jareth's POV
I school my features into an impassive mask and turn towards the man behind me.
"What is your purpose of entering my castle? "
"My, Jareth, a year later and that's all I get, not even a hello?"
I mentally face palm and look into his face. Last time I did this, he was in distress. He was crying. He was begging me. Begging me to take him back. I almost did that night. I did love him, in the shallower way that Fae are capable of, but I loved Sarah more, and I couldn't live with deceiving him.
"Why are you here, Daranell, I thought I had made it clear that it wouldn't work out."
He looked at me oddly before speaking.
"I've come to take back what was mine. "
I felt confused, I had given back everything of his. A hand encircled my upper arm and I realised what was happening, so I struggled.
I could feel us disappearing, traveling to a new location. Out of the corner of my eye I saw Sarah enter the room, felt her grasp the edge of my shirt.

Sarah's POV
I stalled at the door of the study, building up my courage. All hesitation disappeared when I heard the struggle behind the door. I burst through and saw Jareth and another man slowly becoming transparent. I lunged forward and snagged the edge of Jareth's shirt, holding on tight. Surprisingly, there was no rushing force to contend with, we just... appeared. I looked to the two men, Jareth glaring at the stranger.
"Look what you have done, you've dragged Sarah into this," talking slowly, there was no mistaking the malice in his words.
"So you weren't going to tell her? My, Jareth, it's not being honest, is it? It defines you," the stranger stated.
I was thoroughly confused, "Who is he, and what don't I know?"
Jareth grabbed my hand, running his thumb over the knuckles.
"Who he is isn't the most important thing, the more important thing is that.... I am bisexual."
I look at him, I had guessed, but wasn't sure. He looked at me.
"I hope this doesn't change anything, and if it is any consolation, a lot of Fae are..."
I pecked him on the lips before he started rambling. "So, who is he?" I asked the question.
Jareth froze a bit, "His name is Daranell, and he is my ex boyfriend."

2017 editing me again. The kitten unfortunately passed early this year due to a car and suspected eyesight problems for him. And please ignore my Homestuck obsession as seen above.
