The crackle of the fireplace is loud in his ears as he ponders his feelings about all the events that had happened that day. He, Sweeney Todd, is not really sure what he feels; it all happened so fast. One moment him and Mrs. Lovett were having a drink, the next moment they were all over each other. As to why this happened, he also had no idea. He decides to ponder this more later as he feels Mrs. Lovett stir from under his arm.

"Mr. T?" Mrs. Lovett says sleepily.

"Yes, Mrs. Lovett?" He says sighing, not sure why the woman must interrupt his thoughts.

"I love you." The baker says this as she shifts around to wrap her arms around his waist, so she can cuddle into his chest.

The barber stays silent for a moment, thinking, then nods his head in acknowledgement. He then looks at her cuddled into him and smirks, closing his eyes and sighing contently.

She can have this moment, but only this one. Not one more.

He thinks this to himself as he happily drifts off to sleep, the baker wrapped in his arms and unspoken feelings going unstated furthermore between the two.
