This is it. The final chapter! Thank you all for your support and fantastic reviews. I can assure you that they'll be more stories to come from me. Sit back and enjoy chapter 28!

The sun was brightly shining on the streets of London as fifteen-year-old William Todd made his way back home to Fleet Street, carrying groceries that he had bought from the market. He saw his mother preparing the Pie Shoppe for the evening rush. When she spotted him, she ran over happily to her son.

"Wot took ye so long, William? Ye had me worried!" The red-head smiled warmly at his mother.

"I was just visitin' Toby at his Butcher's Shoppe, mum." William handed her a big slab of meat, "He said to give this to ya, mum!" Eleanor smiled.

"You tried payin' for it, right?"

"Yeah, but 'e wouldn't accept it!" He said, laughing. Eleanor joined him.

"Tha's yer brother, always wantin' to do right for th' family." She placed her arm around William, "Come on, let's put this all away and get th' shop ready. Then ye can see if yer father needs ya." William smiled happily.

"I'd like that!" Eleanor smiled at her son. He may've had her fiery hair, but he had his father's eyes and his passion to be a barber.

"Let's hurry, then," She stated. The two of them began to put the groceries away.

Sweeney Todd heard a knock on his door, knowing who it was without looking. He smiled slightly.

"Come on in, William." His son entered happily.

"'Ello, dad! Did any customers come while I was off?"

"Only one. Don't worry, lad. The next customer that comes in, you can shave 'im." He handed his son one of his prized razors. William took it and examined it.

"This must've been expensive, dad…" He muttered as he examined it. Sweeney nodded gravely.

"Me own father got them for me as a gift." He turned and faced his son, "When the time comes, they'll be yours along with this shop." William's eyes lit up.

"Ye mean it?" He asked. Sweeney nodded with a smile. William beamed at his dad and turned to greet a customer who had just entered the shop. As his son shaved the customer, Sweeney looked out the large window of the shop, remembering the day he had returned to London. That day, he was bitter and cruel, hating the world around him. The barber never imagined that he would have a life such as the one he was living in now. At that time, he thought he'd be miserable forever. Sweeney smiled slightly to himself, very grateful that he was wrong.

"Come again," Were the words that brought Sweeney out of his thoughts. He turned to see his son, who looked proud at himself.

"I didn't knick 'im atoll!"

"That's good, lad. I told you that, with practice, you'll become a good barber." William smiled at his father. Sweeney smiled back, giving his son a pat on the back, "Come on. Let's help your mother." The two left the Barber Shoppe and headed down to the Pie Shoppe below.

Eleanor and Sweeney sat in the parlor by the fire, both exhausted by the day's work. William went to bed early, so they had time alone together.

"I'm not as active as I used to be," Eleanor muttered, stretching out slightly, "'Ow was work for you, today?" Sweeney shrugged.

"Usual. William, when he shaved his customer, didn't knick him. He was very pleased." Eleanor smiled proudly.

"Good for 'im."

"Eleanor?"

"Hm?" Sweeney moved in and kissed her soundly on the lips. She gave him a look when he pulled back.

"Wot was tha' for?" Eleanor asked him. Sweeney placed his arm around her, pulling her close to him.

"It was a thank you, my pet."

"Really? Wot did I do t' earn tha' thank you, Mr. Todd?" Eleanor asked seductively.

"You gave me a reason to keep on living a life, my love," He whispered. Eleanor smiled and cuddled close to Sweeney. The fire began to die, but the couple stayed together.

"Life is for th' alive, my dear," Eleanor whispered. Sweeney smiled and closed his eyes.

"So, let's keep living it."
