Sweeney Todd: Happely Ever After? Chapter 2

Mrs Lovett POV

"Are you alright mom?" Toby asked with a small voice. "I'm fine dear, just now Mister Todd is gone, how can I ever make pies again?" I said. It wasn't about the pies really but I couldn't tell Toby I loved Sweeney right? "Mom I don't think that's the problem. You miss mister T, don't you. Mom I know it might be hard but try to forget him. He's not comming back, and we have a lovely business right? We can be really happy Mom." Toby said. With every word he was speaking less loud, still I heard everything clear. "Toby It's not that easy. You know I love you dear but I mean, mister T was the guy I wanted to spend my life with. And I honestly wouldn't know how to make the pies without him, he got the meat and All."

"But mom is there anything I can do for you?" Toby asked. The boy was such a sweety. "Yes dear could you please go to the market and look for the price of meat. Quality one." "Sure mom"

Mister Todd's pov

Lucy almost didn't speak for the past few days and Anthony and Johanna are the best couple ever I think. I was so happy but still I felt so empty. How would Mrs Lovett be? I don't know why but for the past few days she's been running over my mind a lot. How does she make pies now? I kinda miss that red curly hair and them beautiful beautiful eyes. SWEENEY what are you thinking? You have a wife now and a child! This is what you wanted!

Lucy came into the room "Benjamin I think we need to talk... Look I love you , you know that, and we've been a fine couple but we're 15 years later, we can't repead the past to much happened, and I think, we might better,... Break up?" She was stuggeling and I actually took it quite alright I've been expecting worse "well... Yea maybe you're right... We can't..." I didn't know what to feel. For the past few weeks, I've been so happy but Lucy isn't the same, I wanted to remember her like she was before. "Oh Benjamin you know I love you but we both changed too much. I won't live forever either, I've been in the street for too long, My health is going backwards. I'm so sorry Benjamin I-..." "No Lucy you're right. Please forgive me but I want to go back to London, Let's tell Johanna and Anthony right away"

"Johanna, Anthony I have some... We have something to tell you, We're getting a divorce. It's better for everyone that I also go back to London. I'm sorry, I love you all, Know that but I just can't.... Too mich happened! I'm very very sorry!" I spoke fast, faster than normal. Everything I did lately was fast. Nothing felt really real. "But Dad... Mom I just found you guys You can't leave me I need you!" Johanna protested. It was hard for her, still it felt like doing the right thing. "Johanna, believe me, You don't need me. Lucy will stay here and beside Anthony is an amazing fella. If you wanted to marry, you've got my promision boy... It's just... Lately I feel like I left something important behind in London... Mrs Lovett" Lucy looked kinda shoked.

"So you're gonna leave mum, me and Anthony but dad I..." "Johanna you don't need me believe me love, I need mrs Lovett, I just I don't know sweet it's just well yea" I said fast. "I understand my friend but it'll be hard, We'll miss you" Anthony said. I heard in his voice that I would change my mind. But I wouldn't. "I better leave now, not making this any harder. Johanna I want you to know that I'll stay your father. Please write me time to time, you'll always be my little girl. And Anthony you mate, better look after my girls! Lucy for you, I don't know what to say. We can't repeat the past but oh I wish we could. We might could have a life together. Not like you hoped and not like I remembered but we could. But I guess it's not our time. Please forgive me" I gave them a hug and left. I heard Lucy sobbing in silence and Johanna was just kinda looking into empty space. Anthony tried to make Lucy feel better but I left and I probably never saw them again.
