Chapter 5

Sweeney watched as Nellie Lovett stormed out of the barber shop , trying to supress the tears that were threatening to fall down her cheeks.

He hated doing this. He hated treating her like that after all those good things she had done for him ,but he had no choice.

This woman tempted him. She was threatening to replace Lucy's place in his heart, and he couldn't allow this! He couldn't let her come into his life like that. He only cared about his Lucy ,not this silly baker after all, didn't he?

Lately , he found himself thinking about her more and more. Since the day he killed the judge they spent more time together and he came to the conclusion that he was actually enjoying her company. No! No he did not! He should not , he could not ! She was just his landlady and his partner in crime and that's all!

He turned to the window. It was a beautiful day indeed... He wasn't really in the mood of barbering today after all, if he could kill the customers it would be different, he never got tired of this, but just barbering...

Maybe a picnic wouldn't be that bad, would it?

He heard quiet sobs coming from downstairs. It was the baker ,no doubt... It broke his cold heart (or what was left from it) to hear her crying. It was even worse thinking that he was responsible for her misery. Should he go downstairs and apologise? Should he confort her as well? Would she still be in the mood for that picnic? Sweeney sighed.

"Bloody hell, what is this woman doing to me?" He asked himself and left his shop.

He quickly got down the stairs and entered the pie shop. He walked past Toby ignoring his attempts to stop him from entering Mrs Lovett's parlor. He went outside Mrs Lovett's bedroom and knocked on the door.

The door opened wide revealing a red-eyed Mrs Lovett glaring at him.

"Wot?" She harshly asked.

"I- I'm sorry " Sweeney said looking at his feet. He couldn't look her in the eye, a strange feeling flowed throught him every time he did.

"And ya think that I'm going to forgive you that easily?" Mrs Lovett said, anger and hurt were obvious in her voice.

"No , I don't expect you to. I wouldn't ..."Sweeney said still looking at his feet.

"Well then why did you bother coming down here?"She said trying to sound more angry than she actually was.

"I reconsidered your proposal, I could close the shop for a little while so that we could go to the park...If you still want to..."Sweeney lifted his head this time to look at her.

"I don't know Mr T..." Nellie said" I just don't know what to think about you , ya know. The one moment you're treating me like shit and the next you come to my bedroom and tell me you would like it if we went to the park? I'm confused..." She looked him right in the eye.

Suddenly , the strangest thing happened. Sweeney wrapped his arms around her and enveloped her in a tight hug.

"Wot is that for?" The baker asked even more confused.

"Consider it an apology." Sweeney replied with his usual, emotionless voice.

She hesitantly wrapped her arms around him as well and they just stood like that for a while. Sweeney was the first to pull away.

"So," He began "What about that picnic?" He asked.

Nellie looked to the ceiling for a while pretending to be thinking and then replied. "I think I'll pass." She said and closed her bedroom door.

Sweeney stood here mouth-agaped. "What ?!" He finally managed to say. "All this for nothing?!"

"That doesn't feel particulary good, does it?" She yelled from inside her room. He could tell she was enjoying this, she wanted him to taste his own medicine.

"Bloody woman!" He shouted and ran up to his shop.

Nellie was smirking behind the door. It felt good to have the upper hand for once...
