I'm Your Friend Too, Mr. Todd

Away to France we go

"You'll be sleeping here." Oliver said as he showed them a small room that was filled with cobwebs and dust flying everywhere and some supplies scattered on the floor.

"Sorry about the mess but this is the only room available since all the others are taken" he added but both Sweeney and Mrs. Lovett couldn't stop staring at the small single bed. They would have to sleep together which considering their terms with each other right now, wasn't too good.

"Welp, I hope you join us for lunch later on. See you in a couple of hours" said the sailor and soon left shutting the door behind them.

The former partners in crime stood side by side for a couple of minutes until Nellie made the first move by stepping into the room and picking up some of the supplies from the floor and putting them on a desk. "Quite messy in here, these sailors aren't the best at keeping things clean, and it smells like fish in here" she held her nose and decided to open the small window but remembered the rain pouring outside so she kept the window closed and continued cleaning the mess the sailors left.

"I'll sleep on the floor" Todd muttered, not totally comfortable sharing a bed with the woman that lied and betrayed him, she still disgusted him. He rather sleep on the dirty floor than sleep with someone who was possibly a whore and carried a contagious disease and also telling him the false news of his wife.

Nellie said nothing to his response, understanding that they both silently agreed to stay far away from each other as possible, and she honestly agrees as she also doesn't trust him sleeping next to her fearing he might slit her throat in her sleep and dump her body in the ocean. The very thought of him doing that sent chills down her spine and made her visibly nervous.

Once the mess was finally cleaned up, Nellie declared she will be having lunch with the sailors but Sweeney being Sweeney said nothing and instead stared off into the distance pretending he doesn't exist, much to Nellie's dismay somewhat wishing he'll join her though perhaps it's for the best since he did say he doesn't like the sailors.

Nellie walked down the small hallway, she noticed a few pictures hung on the walls. Most of them being mythical images of the ocean or fish, quite strange. As she got closer to the main deck, she could hear laughter and talking and even music playing in the background making everything feel cheery and warm despite the storm going on outside.

"Howdy madam, care to join us?" Oliver asked the moment he saw her. The other sailors and women turned their heads to the baker as awkward silence spread the room.

Nellie only smiled and nodded at the young sailor and joined them. "I don't think we got your name, what should we call ya?" One of the sailors piped up.

Nellie thought for a while if she should say her name, would they know she's a runaway criminal? She decided not to chance it and to use a fake name. What should she call herself?

"My name is Elizabeth," she said rather quickly, praying they won't ask more information about her, though Elizabeth is a common name in Britain, so they shouldn't be suspicious about her, right?

"You're from London, correct? Your accent sounds very... how should I say it? The south part of England." Oliver queries and sips on what looks to be tea.

Nellie started to feel sweaty and her heart beating rapidly as she panics on how to answer his question but she quickly says:

"I was born in Lincoln but I moved to London when I was twelve years old," that was a lie, she's lived in London all her life but the sailors and women seemed to buy it.

"Well since you've told me about your life, let me introduce you to mine" Oliver moved his pointer finger to his sailor friends. "This handsome gentle with dark hair is my good o' pal Nathan along with his brother Evan who is quite tall for his age and finally Lucas," he finally pointed his finger to a man with red hair and carried on saying that they are all good friends and have planned on traveling the whole world once they get a better quality ship to sail on.
