1000 years
A/n: Hey. Its me and here's a new story that is based on the song 1000 years by Christina Perri. I don't know if this should be a one-shot or a multi-chapter story. You the audience will choose.
Disclaimer: I don't own anything.
'I shouldn't love you, but I will for even a 100 years, 1000 years until the end of time.' I thought to myself as I felt a single tear ran down my cheek.
I wiped it away furiously and got up from my bed as I thought of the love of my life, Sweeney Todd.
My mouth opened as I let out a sigh as I got dressed in my working dress. I finished and walked to the shop and made Mr. Todd's and Toby's breakfast.
I walked to Toby and got him to wake up and led the sleepy child to the table and watched him eat.
I wasn't hungry at all, my head was cloudy as I heard Sweeney's pacing feet go back and forth.
'Maybe I'll tell him how I feel about him today." I wondered to myself.
"Mum… are you alright, you seem out of it today?" The little lad asked quietly when he finished eating.
" I'm fine, just tired is all." I replied sorrowfully as I continued to fantasized about Sweeney and I having a life together.
As soon as Toby left the room I went to go take Mr. Todd his breakfast.
I put a smile on my face and walked into his shop and found him at his window polishing his razor. That bloody razor.
"Mr. T?" I asked trying to get his attention.
I was met with silence.
"Mr. T, are you listening?" I asked again.
And yet again I was met with silence.
I couldn't hold it anymore, I started singing to him to get his attention.
"Heartbeats fast
Colors and promises
How to be brave
How can I love when I'm afraid
To fall
But watching you stand alone
All of my doubt suddenly goes
Away somehow
One step closer"
"What's with this nonsense Mrs. Lovett?" Sweeney asked with disbelief and an annoyed tone.
I continued anyway.
"I have died everyday
Waiting for you
Darling don't be afraid I
Have loved you
For a thousand years
I love you for a thousand
More"
" Mrs. Lovett stop talking this nonsense" Mr. Todd spoke more agitated than before as he walked towards me. He tried to quiet my singing as his eyebrows furrowed.
Even though his harsh tone made me flinch slightly I continued again.
"Time stands still
Beauty in all she is
I will be brave
I will not let anything take away"
"Stop this blasted singing at once!" Mr. Todd spoke as he pinned me up against a wall with a razor to my bare throat. But alas, I continued as tears welled up in my eyes. I blinked them away and continued.
"What's standing in front of me
Every breath
Every hour has come to this
One step closer"
"Stop this already!" Mr. Todd finally blew up on me. I cringed at his loud scream like tone. " Your petty feelings for me are revolting. You will never have any of my love. That love has died with my Lucy. So GIVE up you stupid blasted woman and leave me!"
The next thing I knew, I wasn't pinned on the wall any more, I was on the floor with blood on the back of my head.
He left his shop and stomped off to the streets of London.
The tears I've been holding in for the better part of his yelling, started to fall freely. I put my hand up to the gash on my head.
My vision started getting blurry and I felt the urge to vomit. I still cried on the floor as the red rubies dripped on the floorboard.
The last thing I remember seeing were black polished shoes that belonged to none other than Sweeney. He had returned to kill me.
The last thing I remember thinking was 'At least I told him how I felt.' Then, I went into the world of unconsciousness.
A/N: Hope this didn't suck. And I hope you guys tell me if I should leave it as it is or do a multi-chap. R&R.
