(Mrs. Lovetts POV)

The three of us sat at the table of my shop with three glasses of gin in our hands.

Mr.Todd downed it in one gulp, I took my time with mine. And Johanna just stared down at her glass unsure if she should drink it or not.

With a sigh, I finally spoke up.

"Now..we've got a body molding it's way upstairs..what do you intend we should do about that then?"

"What if..we find a palce to bury his body? Somwhere no one would think to look" said Johanna.

"Or we could throw the body in the harbor' said Sweeney.

"Yeah...suppose we could do either one. Johanna love, You've had a long day. Why dont you get some sleep?"

With a yawn, Johanna agreed and gave both sweeney and me a kiss on the cheek.

"Sleep well my beautiful Lamb" sweeney said making Johanna blush.

Once she was gone he turned back to me with a serious look.

"I know you too well pet, what are you really planning?' he asked making me smirk.

"Well you know me love, ideas just pop into me head and I cant help but think...it seems a down right shame.'

"Seems like you have everything planned out pet. And to make sure we leave no trace behind, I will dump any remains into the harbor.'

I smiled and took his cold hands into mine.

"Thank you Mr. Todd, I couldnt ask for a better partner.'

"...Yeah..same here' he said while blushing.

"Just promise me one thing."

"What?" he asked.

"Please keep this between us, and don't let anyone take our children away.'

"No way in hell id ever let that happen. I give you my word."

Reaching up, I quickly kissed the man of my dreams and put a hand to his cheek.

"Goodnight love, see you in the morning.'

With that said, I walked into my room and changed into a night gown.

Just as I was about to lay down in bed, my bedroom door opened...
