Authors Note: I got the idea for this listening to my immortal my evanescence. It's a different version of the finally, of Mrs. Lovett and Sweeney's scene. You should listen to it while reading, if you can, because it's easier to understand and it's sadder that way. Song lyrics are copyright its owner. Enjoy.
My Immortal Memories.
-Insert story of Sweeney Todd here-
"Kill me." Mr.T looked up at me with sad eyes, holding his Lucy close. I panicked. I couldn't kill him! I loved him! The tears fell over my eyes before I could stop them.
"Mr.T. I won't do it." I looked at him. He was too beautiful to be dead. If it weren't for that stupid wife of his, we could be living by the sea in a year. We would be happy, me, because I had him, and He, because the judge was gone, and his Johanna was with Anthony.
"Nellie. I SAID KILL ME." He Hissed at me. Looking up at me, he held out the razor to me. Nellie. He'd never called me Nellie, yet, he'd said it like that's what he always called me it. I couldn't help it. It was his request. I took the razor and turned, and gulped. I couldn't look as I pulled the razor across his throat.
"I Love you Benjamin, Sweeney."
"I love. You. Too. Not as much. Lucy. But. Love. You," Sweeney murmured between his last gulps of air. I looked at him, watched his life drain from I'm the form of his precious rubies.
"Sweeney..." I knelt down beside him, stroked his soft hair. I heard footsteps and Toby came up behind me. I stood up and hugged him close, tears falling down my face steadily.
~ THE NEXT DAY~
I never slept a wink that night, not without hearing Mr.T's boots thudding as he came down for Gin in the middle of the night. I even got the tray out to prepare breakfast! I went up to his shop to lock it up, and I burst out to sobs. I couldn't go on. Every time I turned, I beloved I saw his shadows on the walls, and his voice, talking to the judge, telling him he was Benjamin barker. The Gargling of his customers as they died. How a person could live with a loss like this, I'd never know. They say time heals it all, but how is that possible with all this grieving? I walked to Toby's room and poked my head in. He slept soundly. I walked back to my room and wrote a note:
"Toby,
I am committing suicide. I just want to be with Sweeney. I love you lots. N. Lovett"
I walked downstairs and sat down beside Sweeney's cold body. I pulled the razor close to me.
"I'll love you forever Benjamin."
I pulled the razor across my throat. The last thing I felt was the liquid seeping out of my skin.
I'm so tired of being here, suppressed by all my childish fears These wounds won't seem to heal, this pain is just too real When you cried, I'd wipe away all of your tears You used to captivate me by your resonating light These wounds won't seem to heal, this pain is just too real When you cried, I'd wipe away all of your tears I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone When you cried, I'd wipe away all of your tears
And if you have to leave, I wish that you would just leave
Your presence still lingers here and it won't leave me alone
There's just too much that time cannot erase
When you'd scream, I'd fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have all of me
Now, I'm bound by the life you left behind
Your face it haunts my once pleasant dreams
Your voice it chased away all the sanity in me
There's just too much that time cannot erase
When you'd scream, I'd fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have all of me
But though you're still with me, I've been alone all along
When you'd scream, I'd fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have all of me, me, me
