I DO NOT OWN SWEENEY TODD.

~Chapter 3.

Downstairs I went, remembering Mr. Todd's cold glare two minutes ago. I sat down rubbing my hands to warm them against the burning fire. What was Mr. Todd's deal? I only asked him a simple question and he gets all demon-like. Gritting my teeth, I walked outside, noticing there was no one to be in sight. My legs felt as if they were hard to pick up and let go inside the hard ground. Darkness invaded Fleet street, no face appeared to come out of the icy windows, not even one sound came out from anyones mouth. I was alone and a chill of danger went up my spine. I looked up to see Mr. Todd's window lighten up and I noticed a man walked in front of me with a generous smile. He had emerald colored eyes and dark chocolate brown pulled back.

'' Hello Miss , I came here to get a shave.'' His voice sounded soft but yet rough.

'' Oh! Let me take you to Mr. Todd then.'' I opened the door and lead the man up the stairs and then up to Mr. Todd's room. I knocked twice. Mr. Todd came out suddenly . He met my eyes and then tried to smile. He looked over to the man.

'' Mr. Todd this gentlemen wants to have shave'' I smiled softly

Mr. Todd looked at me and nodded.

'' Come here now'' He lead the man to his room and let him sat on the seat.

'' Do you want me to stay Mr. Todd?'' I asked.

'' If you like.'' He got his razor and looked at it. I sat down near them.

He swiftly shave the man's neck and chin, meeting my eyes every single second. He concentrated , he looked at the man's features closely removing every hair off it's place. He looked handsome when he did his work. His face looked less stressed and angry. He smirked when his work was done and I was sitting there in awe. The man gave him the money and walked out the room with a simple goodbye.

'' Well now...'' Mr. Todd murmured.

I looked up at him; he had his hands folded and stared down at me with a painful, strange look.

'' I apologize for...kicking you out..'' His voice seemed soft and his eyes shined in the moonlight.

'' It's alright, I knew you didn't mean it Mr. Todd'' I looked the other way.

'' Call me Sweeney dear'' His voice ringed into me ears.

'' Sweeney?'' I asked.

'' What? Is it a problem to you?''

'' No..it's just a strange name. I like it'' I smiled shyly and got up from my seat.

'' Well then...Sweeney.. good night'' I walked towards the door and waved goodbye to him,leaving Sweeney with a smile spread across his face.

~Sweeney's POV~

'' She's nothing like my Lucy'' He gritted his teeth and glared outside of the window.

'' Not even close..'' He whispered and walked towards his bed to sat down on it.

'' She does have character..her personality is very innocent..she's clever..and sweet.''

''Emily...'' His tongue rolled when he said it and a tingling feeling was felt inside his black heart.

Emily...Emily..Emily..

He lay down repeating her name inside his mind and out of his mouth. He liked the feeling inside his body but he regret it. He will always love his lost love ,Lucy, no one and nothing will never take it away from him. But still there was Emily, who he thinks she has become more comfortable towards him. Lucy was his first love,his one and only no other girl will make him feel that way again. He fell into a distinct sleep,repeating the names.

Lucy....Emily...Lucy...Emily..
