At that very moment, Sweeney Todd became a different person. He couldn't bear to stand at his landlady any longer, so he shot out of the pie shop and ran up the stairs like a bat out of hell.

"Mr. Todd?" Toby asked frantically, trying to cover up the walls with his tiny hands.

"WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED TO MY SHOP!?" Sweeney howled.

"Mum told me to paint it this color, sir." The walls were a bright shade of pink. The room reflected all the light that shone in it, making the color vibrant and very noticeable.

"GET OUT YOU DAMN BOY!" Sweeney shouted, pointing his finger at the door.

"Does this mean I'm not getting paid?"

"WHAT THE HELL DO YOU THINK!?" Sweeney pushed the boy out of the shop and slammed the door.

"Sweeney Todd what was that down there? You trying to give that poor woman a heart attack?! Making her give up her baby… I didn't even think you were that low…"

"SHUT UP THIS IS NONE OF YOUR BUISNESS!"

"Poor Nellie."

"Shut up."

"She was such a lovely girl."

"Shut up!"

"All she wanted was a family to call her own."

"SHUT UP!" Sweeney took the tea kettle from the counter and grabbed it.

"What are you gonna do with that? Hit me? Hah, Sweeney if you haven't realized already I AM YOU!"

"Just… stop."

"Well…you could say please."
"Don't push it."

"Sorry." He mumbled. "Now, what do you suppose were going to do about that then?"

"Later on when it's dark, I'll take her to some secret place and…"

"SWEENEY!"

"What?" He had a look on his face that would be a cross between innocence, devilish, and confusion all in one shot.

"Don't you even think about hurting her."

"Did I say I was going to hurt her?"

"No. But I know you were going to say that!"

"And how would you possibly know?"

"BECAUSE I-AM-YOU!"

"Right…" He didn't know what else to say. He had that same 'I feel like an idiot' face he had on earlier.

"If you lay one hand on that woman or the baby, I will never forgive you."

"Why would I care if you never forgave me?"

"Lucy would never forgive you."

"Lucy is dead; there is nothing I can do about that."

"But you can live again Sweeney. Live for her, live the life she couldn't live don't you understand!?"

"It's not the same."

"I know it isn't, but you could have a life you two, maybe not like she dreamed, maybe not like you remember but you could get by…"

"I don't want to get by."
"Do it for Lucy, Sweeney. Do it for Lucy." And with that, Benjamin Barker faded out of the head of Sweeney Todd.

"Mrs. Lovett!" Sweeney entered the pie shop once again, as she sat quietly in the same spot.

"Wot is it love?" She asked, trying to hide the tears that fell from her face.

"Why in God's name would you tell that boy to paint my shop pink?"

"Well…"

"That is my home Mrs. Lovett and you decided to girl it up without me knowing!?"

"I didn't…"

"You didn't what? Think?!" Mrs. Lovett just sat there, unable to move, while tears flooded down her face.

"I'm sorry Mr. T I'm really sorry!" She wailed, her head covered by her eyes against the table.

"Well do you know what I'm going to have to do now, Mrs. Lovett!?" He screamed, making practically all of London hear his growl. Nellie simply nodded her head.

"I'm…I'm" He got up his entire anger, making his extremely pale skin turn into a shade of red.

"I'm going to have to move, Mrs. Lovett. Move by the sea." At his statement, Nellie shot her head up, her teary eyes filled with confusion. "And I'm going to have to take you with me, considering you are in no shape to take care of yourself with that foot of yours."

"Re…really?" She sniffed, trying to wipe the tears from her face.

"Yes, Nellie, really." He walked over to her slowly and wiped the tears from her cheeks.

"Sweeney!" She screamed with joy, she sprang up from her chair and attached her arms around his neck, making Todd only able to smile as he threw his arms around her waist.

"Life is for the alive my dear." Sweeney whispered into Nellie's ear. She composed herself, stopping the tears of joy from flowing and stared into his eyes and kissed the lips of Sweeney Todd.

"I will never forget this day Nellie Lovett. Never, not in a million years, for today is the day that I fell in love, and lived again. So let's keep living it, really living it." Sweeney looked into her deep brown glittering eyes and kissed her lips again.
