Masterlist | 1.5k Celebration
Wild Horses.
You were sat outside the office block, waiting for Tommy to appear, he'd told you fifteen minutes ago he was on his way. He was impossible always working, you only needed him for the afternoon.
He'd promised you he'd been done by the time you arrived to get him, you'd somehow managed to keep a secret from him, with a lot of hushed phone calls to the family and late night emails.
You knew he was avoiding coming down to the car, he hated surprises, picking up your phone you dialled his number.
"I'm coming darling, I'm coming" he voice drawled down the line, you rolled your eyes hanging up without a word.
'Is he on his way down? x' you text your brother in-law for some support, 'putting him in the lift as we speak x' Arthur's response flew back.
You flicked the end of your cigarette out of the window, Tommy was leaving his office, you'd told him to take a change of clothes, be in something more casual, but, no here he was in his full suit slipping into the passenger seat of your car.
He lent across the centre console, pressing a kiss to your cheek "hello darling" he smiled.
You turned your head to catch his lips, letting yourself get carried away, as your phone buzzed.
You grabbed it quickly so he wouldn't see, turning to start the engine "I hate not knowing, you know that" he grumbled, throwing himself back into the seat like a spoilt child.
You laughed lightly "I promise it's a nice thing. just close your eyes and don't cheat!" you squeezed his knee, pulling out of the parking space.

You somehow convinced Tommy to put on the blindfold, one you'd whipped out of the box kept in the wardrobe, he'd never let you use it on him before.
"Don't think we'll do this in the bedroom again, it's not that nice is it?" he groaned, you bit at your lips holding in the small giggle "I don't know Tom, I enjoy it" you admitted.
You could sense the smirk on his lips, keeping your eyes on the road "then we will continue" he laughed.
You made the familiar turning into Charlie's Yard, he'd helped you plan almost all of this surprise, you checked the text on your phone from him.
'All sorted, third stable, set up. Curly out of the way he can't keep a secret'
You got out of the car, making your way round to the passenger side, helping Tommy out, guiding him across the cobbles to the large gates.
"Why are we at Charlies Yard?" he asked, you stopped trying to see where he had managed to sneak a peak from the blindford.
"The smell, its the smell of Charlie's Yard I haven't looked" he confirmed, you huffed of course he knew this place by just the smell, he'd spent nearly all his life here.
-
You stood behind him, standing on tiptoes to unknot the blindfold "Keep your eyes closed, Thomas" you giggled, making your way back round to his side.
Linking your fingers through his "Open" you whispered, so giddy with excitement.
You watched him as his eyes finally fell on the majestic black horse, he turned to you mouth agape with shock "You didn't?" he asked, stepping forward slowly towards the horse.
Tommy was always dreaming about owning a horse again, he'd grown up riding but moving into the City to launch the business meant he left his horses in Curly's care.
He turned to you, a beaming smile on his face, you moved towards him watching as he spoke softly to the horse, "She's called Gypsy Eve" you handed him the paperwork.
Tommy nodded his free arm wrapped round your waist pulling you into his side, "have you ever been on a horse?" he asked, you looked up at the towering animal "never, they frighten me" you admitted.
Tommy smiled at you, pressing a kiss to your cheek "We can ride together"
You gave him a look, "don't start you little tease" he hummed with an amused smirk, "I do like riding sometimes" you quipped as he pressed his fingers to your side, making you squirm at the sensation.
"Lets go for a ride" he declared, shrugging off his suit jacket, "what kind?" you asked, he shook his head walking to the side of the horse, patting her on the back.
"later for the other kind of ride, eh?" he cupped at your jaw letting his lips slide across yours momentarily.
"Is that a promise?" you asked, fingers dancing in the shaved side of his hair "Of course, when have I ever let you down"

Masterlist.
Hurt
Tommy couldn't even comprehend the feelings rippling through him, you were in the other room probably sound asleep now after the events of the evening.
He couldn't believe he'd been so stupid to bring you along, to put you in harms way, he always just thought he'd be able to protect you.
Tonight he didn't get the chance, Kimber's men had surrounded him you were on your way back from the bathroom of the club, all he could do was watch as they held the gun to your head.
They'd ushered you from the premises and then beat him before he even had a chance.
Arthur and John had been quick to find you to bring you back to Arrow House, you were shaken, bruised and the blood that stained the hem of your dress made his heart break.
Polly had cleaned you up as he clung to your hand, whispering how sorry he was in your ear, peppering the lightest kisses to your cheek, vowing to make those men pay.

You stirred in the bed, it was empty without him beside you, without his fingers caressing your skin as you both drifted to sleep.
You hadn't spent a night apart since you'd found each other, you'd stumbled into the garrison trying to escape a man who had no business treating you the way he did.
Ada an old friend had spotted you and you hadn't looked back. Tommys men dealing with your old lover and promising you no one would ever touch you in such a way again, promising you he'd only touch you with love and security.
The door creaked, you know instantly it was him.
"Tom?" You spoke voice cracking with hope.
"It's me, I couldn't sleep away from you, but I'll go if you need me too" he was stood in the doorway.
"No, please I can't sleep without you here" you shuffled in the bed winching at the discomfort.
He was across the room in seconds, lifting the covers snuggling close, would you even us the word snuggle in a sentence about Tommy? but that's exactly what he was doing, sneaking into your bed to snuggle.
"Fuck, I'm just so sorry y/n" he spoke after a few minutes of silence, of you both taking in the feeling of being next to each other.
"Tommy, please its fine you didn't know" You were curled against his side.
"I should fucking protect you, y/n" he was watching you intently "you can leave, you deserbe so much better than me" he spoke softly.
You sat up, not even bothered by the pain ripping through your thigh "Better than you? better than a man who makes sure i have everything I don't deserve, makes sure I'm safe ever-" you shook your head as he went to disagree.
"What do I deserve then Tom? because what I had before you was killing me and not having you would be just as worse" you could feel the tears pressing at your eyes.
"I should have kept you safe" he sighed out, you shook your head "it was one time, and if I know the man I fell in love with I know that they will regret every moment of listening to Kimber"
Your hand was cupping his cheek "but he needs to sleep before that happens and just know I'm here for you, no matter what I love everything about you Thomas Shelby"
Tommy couldn't speak, could even believe his luck that he had found you and managed to get you to fall in love with him and all his demons.
"Jesus Christ I love you so fucking much, y/n" his lips were inches from yours.
You smiled arms snaking around his neck "and I love you just as much" you sighed pressing your lips with his.
That was enough to settle Tommy's buzzing mind, to slip benearth the covers with you tight to him, his body slowing from the adrenaline of the evening.
"Aunt Pol, would be so mad at us right now" you giggled, the words of Polly ringing in your head, the way she had demanded you sleep apart for rest and recovery.
"She should know I need my rest to kill those men in the morning" he stated, you rolled your eyes pressing a kiss to his chest.
"Good night Thomas"
