Sorry for such short chapters, it comes and goes so I publish what I get right away. I get way to excited!

The days flew by, and it seemed like it had been weeks since Mrs. Lovett had spoken to Mr. Todd. Toby was furious that Mrs. Lovett still let him live there, everyday he would remind her of what Mr. Todd tried to do to her, but she always insisted that they give him time and he would be back to his normal self, well his Sweeney Todd self, in no time. That is what she hoped for anyways, but she couldn't bring herself to believe that it would actually happen.
Mrs. Lovett ventured down to the baking room to fetch the last batch of pies she would make out of her latest meat supply. She sighed a deep sigh, wishing that Mr. Todd would talk to her again, or at least look at her. She casted her eyes on the oven that almost was her grave, and started to break down crying. She didn't know that Mr. Todd happened to be in the baking room with her.
Mr. Todd watched Mrs. Lovett from the dark corner of the room. He started to feel a pang of guilt for what he did to her. She always looked out for me, cleaned up after my messes, and kept me good company, even when I didn't need or want it. And now I am too ashamed to even talk to her... I wonder what she thinks of me, if she will ever be able to forgive me...
Another thought came to mind after he remember how she had lied to him. She lied, and told me that my beloved Lucy was dead. She was so selfish. Lucy was alive and she wanted her out of the way so she could have me. She can't even compare to my Lucy...
Todd got so angry at his last thoughts that he started throughing some pebbles across the floor, totally forgetting that Mrs. Lovett was there.
Mrs. Lovett heard the noise and jumped. Startled she called out into the darkness. "Who's there?"
Mr. Todd decided that it was time to settle some things. He stood up and walked into the light.
"Oh, Mr. T. You frightened me! Wot brings you down 'ere?" She had a frightened look in her eyes, but didn't want to show it so she glanced around the room, looking for something to focus on.
"I came down here to think, I didn't mean to startle you." He said, though not so honestly. He did come down to see her, but not with the intentions of being caught.
I have a mind blank... I'll update when I think of more!
