Okay, well, here's the newest chapter! Please review and I'll continue.
Chapter 14
Down by the sea…married nice and proper…
A couple weeks later, Sweeney Todd and Nellie Lovett were finally married, and they got married at a small church that was by the ocean, where Nellie had always dreamed to go. They didn't bring Toby, for they left him in the bake house, still.
Nellie had excitement going through every inch of her body at the fact that she was back with her one and only Sweeney. He was happy to be with her. She was his reason and his life now. And nothing could make the two happier than to be with each other.
They had a few more days to stay by the sea, and Nellie wanted Sweeney to go to the beach with her, he agreed as long as he didn't have to get wet or anything.
Nellie enjoyed the water, while Mr. Todd sat there on the beach. He just enjoyed watching her and how beautiful she was to him. She tried to get him to come in, but he refused every time she asked…
They soon found themselves back in the pie shop, beginning their new life together, Nellie took food down to Toby daily and of course apologized that he had to stay down there. Oh, if Mr. Todd could trust Toby more…
Sweeney came down to the lobby all the time now just to see Nellie. He was so delighted to have her for his own, as was she to have him.
"'Ello, love." Sweeney said, pressing his lips to Nellie's. He seemed so much more cheerful nowadays…
"'Ello, dear. 'Aven't 'ad many customers today. Wonder why." Nellie said as she folded her arms across her chest.
"Well, it could be tha' the shop's been closed a while. People may think its still closed. Business'll get better, my pet."
Nellie winked at him, Hehe…cute…She thought.
Then he glared out the window, "That Beadle needs to hurry up…" He mumbled under his breath.
"Wha', love?" Nellie turned to him.
"Huh?" He sighed, "Oh, nothing, nothing at all."
"All right."
He saw her pretty face and he blushed, Oh, psh! You need to stop being nervous when you look at her! She's your wife! You need not be nervous around her any more! Hey, man, you're blushing! Stop talking to me and talk to her! His conscious told him, it was if he had conversations with himself.
Then he noticed Nellie wasn't across the room, he looked down to see her staring up right at him, "Ah!" He said with shock ringing through his voice.
"Hehehe, did I scare you?" Nellie said in a subtle yet adorable tone, well, it was adorable to him anyway.
"Uh, no, no, I'm fine." He said with his face still highlighted pink.
"Here," She handed some money to him, "Can you do this for me?"
"…do what?"
"I want you to take this down the street, and take it to Mrs. Mooney." A smile went across her lips.
"Mrs. Mooney? Why her?"
"'Bout a month ago, I bought a pie from her and told 'er I'd pay 'er back, so I am."
"You bought a pie from your own rival?" Sweeney asked in amusement.
"Ha, yeah, strange, no? Well, please do wha' I ask, love, do it for me." She hugged him tightly and there he went blushing again.
Sweeney walked out the shop nonchalantly and slowly opened the door to Mrs. Mooney's Pie Shop. It wasn't as dusty as Lovett's at 186, in fact it was well kept. He walked over to a quiet lady at the counter who was jotting some things down on paper.
"Here, this is from Mrs. Lovett." He said while attempting a pathetic smile, Nellie was all that could make him smile. He handed her the money and she took it from him quickly. She didn't look up at his face. She kept on writing.
Sweeney nodded and walked away mysteriously and he disappeared from her shop…weird…he thought.
When he opened the door to Mrs. Lovett's, there stood the Beadle arguing with her. Fear was practically writing across her face. Her brown eyes where big and she was utmost nervous. "Wha's going on?!" Sweeney demanded.
Hehehe…another cliffy! LOL. Well, I hope you liked this chapter, how is Mrs. Mooney tied in with the Beadle coming over? Hehe…well, that's for me to know and you to find out…if you review…
