Wow! Powerful words, twister! I was really hoping that Sarah would be spared the agony of date-rape. That somehow a hero (Michael perhaps?) would come along and save her from herself and Brian. He’s even more loathsome than Jareth at this point. But maybe your version is more realistic in a way. There are not that many heroes out there in the real world and Sarah’s experience is probably a far too common one. It’s just sad that she will look back upon her “first time” with regretful, painful and bitter memories rather than sweet and loving ones. But the story is not over, right? I look forward to reading more.
