Edith Densly has been the neighbour of the Shelby family all her life when she is finally recognised by Thomas Shelby and falls in love dramatic events happen
Edith had been walking to work she had gotten used to her new job and could even say she enjoyed it so when her walk was disrupted by a certain Irish inspector.Edith had been pulled into a empty alleyway roughly causing the side of her face to be scratched by the brick wall she pulled out of his grip and gave him the most intimidating glare she could ever muster.
"Miss Densly" he greeted tilting his hat at her "inspector, is there somethings out need from me" she asked he nodded "there is indeed,it's a known fact that you live beside the Shelby's" Edith nodded she never tried to hide who she lived beside but at that very moment she wished she did
"And do speak to the Shelby's very often?" Ediths hand betrayed her as it touched the side of her face she looked down at her fingers and noticed the blood that sat on it "you made me scratch my face" she huffed "so do you speak to the Shelby's often"he ignored her complaints "Why?" She did not have time to waste "I would like you to consider keeping an eye on the Shelby's for me" he knew it was not a question it was a demand and he would be sure she would follow it "do you take me for a snitch is that why your speaking to me" "No but miss Densly I do take you for a smart woman who will make the right choice" she crossed her arms "well sorry to inform you but I have no information for you"

"Very well" he left down the streets ready to terrorise someone else
Edith let out a breath she did not realise she was holding and walked to the betting den "what happens to your face" Lizzie asked Edith shrugged "nothing just need to put a plaster on it and it will be fine" Esme put a cup of tea in front of Edith and smiled "Tommy's here he wants you" Edith put her pen down and got up
She did not bother to knowing and just walked in she stood and waited for him to speak but he did not he just stared at her "I had a visit from the new inspector" she cleared her throat "what did he want?" He finally spoke back "he did this to me" she pointed at the plaster she had stuck on her face "He wanted me to keep an eye on you,give information but I don't have any so I said no" She lit a cigarette offering him one wich he took

"I want to take you to the races" he interrupted "the ones with the horses" she tilted her head he nodded "yeah the ones with the horses,so will you come to the races" she nodded "here some money for the dress" he handed her money but she shook her head "but I already have dresses" He blew out a cloud of smoke "and make sure the dress is red,so it matches" he put out his cigarette "matches what?" "I don't know the cut on your face, I don't care as long as it's red" she nodded before leaving.
