Despite having only received five tickets for her family and friends to watch her graduate, the group there to clap for Sarah numbered more than a dozen. The chickens were denied entrance, else that number would have been higher. The large, hairy, orangish friend stood by the door, but somehow everybody else fit onto the bleacher seats, although not in the same section.
Representatives from the various story-telling entities who hoped to hire the soon-to-be-grad congregated on one side, with the contingent from Underground on the other, and family members in the middle. Hearing Sarah's triple major, summa cum laude, and 4.0 GPA announced, the cheer that arose from all around somehow wasn't deafening, just loud.
The second best present that Sarah received was from Jareth, who made sure that none of the attendees that came with him interacted in any memorable way with anybody at all, except for Toby. The best graduation present was from eight-year-old Toby himself, who hugged her, and announced to whoever cared to listen that "this is my sister, who tells the bestest stories, and I'm proud of her and really really love her."
Even the Goblin King got a little teary-eyed.
That evening, having received congratulations all afternoon at the reception, Sarah welcomed the quiet of her room. Having treated herself to a relaxing bubble bath, she was now cuddled up in comfy pajamas on her window seat. She held another crystal, the one that was waiting for her that evening.
Holding a sphere of smooth, cool glass and the face of a man who has always fascinated you isn't that difficult, until you try to understand how it actually works. Fortunately, Sarah skipped that step, and was already well past acceptance.
Jareth had already adjusted his seated posture so that he could more easily hold his lady.
Knowing that this was borrowed time, they rested their foreheads against each other, and let their met eyes hold conversation; Sarah was completely exhausted from all she had accomplished, and Jareth's strength was a little sapped from having kept so many goblins in check for so long.
After either two hours or thirty minutes, Jareth noticed a pair of drooping eyelids that were not his own. "Sarah-love, you must go back. I don't know what would happen if either of us fell asleep in this state. We might possibly get stuck forever in the crystal, and I have other plans."
In agreement, she sighed. "Jareth. If only you could come, too. I'd really like to cuddle onto your shoulder for a little bit."
Glad that this was the Champion of the Labyrinth, Jareth knew that such a wish was easily granted, but "Say your right words, and you can have your wish."
"I wish that Jareth would visit me in my room for awhile… RIGHT NOW."
Curled up on her window seat, Sarah slept on Jareth's shoulder, until he carried her to her bed. Kissing her softly on her forehead, he vanished with only the smallest amount of glitter.

CCSW 4
The evening had continued as such. Belle curled up in his lap against him, while he told her of trips he had taken and deals he had made. She listened in rapt astonishment as his words flowed, taking her on the adventures she had always longed for, and given up. Rumplestiltskin heard her breathing become more even and soft as she started to drift off in to dreams. He hoped they would be happy and appealing for her. His words continued to flow in stories until he knew she was truly gone. Then, taking her up into his arms he started for her rooms, feeling a smile tug at his lips as she snuggled herself into his chest. By the Gods she was going

Clarisse part 1
Constantine sighed, rubbing his tired, sea-green eyes. The older children grow, the more unbelievably outlandish their ideas and fancies become, he thought to himself, putting his quill down. There wasn't anything productive about trying to get his paperwork done with his mind wandering off to something else.
She could have picked anyone else — anyone, and it wouldn't have been difficult, considering her status nowadays— yet she managed to chose the one person Constantine would definitely not approve of. An accident of sorts; Mona happened to invite him to opening night of Clarisse's new project, and he just happened to run into her.

DISCLAIMER: If it's a character, setting, idea, scene, etc, from the Labyrinth, it's (c) Henson, Lucas, Froud, Lee, Bowie, Connelly, etc, and NOT MINE.
If it's too cute to be believed, the idea is mine, but the fault is sleep deprivation.
I know it's a short one, but chapter 5 is coming, is much longer, and finishes the story.
Please comment, give feedback, and help me find typos!!

:3 Oh, little Toby. All the fandom adores you... "my sister, who tells the bestest stories"- that was the sweetest thing of his whole little speech. As for cuddling on the GK's shoulder- oh my, yes. I suddenly got an image in my head of a request for cuddles when Jareth was wearing one of his fancier beaded jackets, and how he might just zap away the beads to allow for greater comfort. And how that would cause consternation to the royal tailor, if there is such a being. XD
