Underground (Jareth X Reader)

11

The next day you didn't go out of your room. Jareth scared you enough, you didn't want to make him madder than he already was. Throughout the entire time you stayed in your room, the flowers stayed gray. A few hours after waking up, there was a knock at the door. "It's open." You said in a glum tone. Jareth walked in very carefully. Your back was facing him. He sat on your bed and started.

"Love...I'm sorry. I didn't mean to yell at you. I was just very stressed and I get very sensitive when talking about her. Please forgive me!" You didn't respond. "...You know, to answer your question, her name was Sarah. She had these big gorgeous eyes and this bright smile. She was so mature and so adventurous. I haven't been more in love. As I said, I gave her everything....but she didn't love me back...Oh, Y/N. I love you so much...Please, PLEASE forgive me!" A tear slowly ran down your cheek. The flowers slowly turned blue. You heard Jareth sniff. Is he crying? He then chuckled. "I regretted kicking you out of my room. I was so lonely...and all I could think about was you." You clenched up, trying not to cry out. "I couldn't sleep at all. Because I didn't have you to hold. I didn't have you to kiss...I didn't have you to wake up next. I didn't wake up to see your precious smile. I didn't have you to talk to first thing in the morning. Forgiveness is all I ask for. Please forgive me Y/N." You still didn't respond. He sniffed again. It was clear now that Jareth was crying. "Oh, Y/N! Please forgive me!" He said, choking on tears. You then felt Jareth laid down next to you. He wrapped his arm around you and you grabbed his arm. "Please...Forgive me. I love you so much, it will hurt to see you go." He whispered.

You sniffed. You slowly turned around to face Jareth. He was crying so much. You never saw Jareth cry before. You placed your hands over your mouth. Jareth's tears only made you cry harder. You hugged him, he immediately hugged you back. "I'm so sorry." He said. "If you don't forgive me, I understand but please know that I love you so much."

"I forgive you, Jareth. I love you too much to hate you." You whispered. " I couldn't sleep either. I missed you." You both just laid there and hugged each other for a few minutes. You let go of the hug but kept close. Jareth wiped the tears still coming down your face.

"Now, stop crying. I hate that look on you." He said in a low tone.

"No, I have a better idea. You stop crying." He laughed at your reply. He then kissed you and you kissed back. "I love you so much." You giggled.

"I know, you said it like 5 times." You both laughed.

"Now, can we please restart this day? Like we just woke up?"

"Of course...Hi!"

"Hello!"

"I could stare into your eyes all day!" Jareth smiled.

"Silly girl." You both laughed. Everything was forgiven, Everything was well.

2 Underground Days Ago....

"It's been a week since the disappearance of Y/N Y/L/N. There still no sighting of her. If you see her, please contact this number immediately." Said the newscaster on the TV. Your mother sat on the couch crying over you. Ever since you left, she hasn't been the same. She couldn't work, she couldn't sleep, and she couldn't think.

"Please god! Please bring my baby back to me!" She cried. Your mother turned off the TV and headed upstairs. She hasn't been in your room since. She couldn't bear to see it. Tonight, she finally stepped into your room, hoping you were sleeping there. You weren't there. She cried some more until she saw a note on your bed. She walked towards the note and picked it up. It read "I wish the goblin king would come and take me away, right now." Her mouth dropped slowly open. 

Then, the door shut. Your mother jumped and turned around. She took a few steps forward. The window flew open, the moon was the only source of light. Your mother grasped the note. It was silent. A shadow slowly grew on the floor. She stared at the shadow. Her breathing went heavy. She straightened her back once the shadow stopped growing. She slowly and carefully turned around. Her eyes went wind.

"Hello, Sarah. We have a lot of catching up to do..."
