Created by the devil

Next life.

As they both sit next to each other on their way to Banbury all they've been hearing is Arthur's groining. Gia suggested to rest at her office because there is no way he will make it to Birmingham without doing more damage. Once they arrived in front of the big buildings they didn't waste their time and directly stepped out of the car.

The height of the building they entered is impressionable. Gia leads the two brothers through security and through the mase that is the building. At first, they got weird looks, but once the workers saw who the intruders were they jumped up to help them. Tommy hears Gia suddenly yell "Voi, listen the fuck up. I need this man to be taken care of as if he's the fucking king. Capisce?" The first man who held Arthur over his arm responded "e 'inteso, don."

Gia straightens her back and sighs as Arthur is being lifted away. Two men walk up to her. They must be important, Tommy thinks because when he came closer to her she held his arm, and looked the way his brother went. He starts walking down the hallway and when he turns around to look once again at her, she's already leading the men into a different room.

She opens the doors that lead to her bureau and sits down in her chair. "Right, what did Angel have to say?" She asks the narrators. One man takes his fedora off and looks at the other man stressed. Carmelo, one of the men and her cousin clears his voice "Gia, you've got to understand he had to choose between his two siblings-" She cut him short "Cut the bullshit."

"He's in New York. He arrived yesterday, before the incident. I'm sorry." He tells her. "Don't be. Now, Carmelo, the choice is up to you. Are you going back to New York or are you staying?" She questions him as she repositions herself on her chair. "We all know you are the brains behind the operation. Me, and I know other men, will too always follow your words." He explains.

"Good man. I'll need you to go back to New York though but first tell me what you know." Gia finishes her deal while Tommy's on the other side of the building with a cigarette in his mouth. Once her cousin knows what to do and stands to leave, she voices "Oh Carmelo, betray me, and I'll cut your throat myself." He looks at her and nods like he understands the stress that's pending on her shoulders, before leaving.

She finally has a moment to herself when she hears knocking on her door. "Yes?" She sighs as she massages the side of her head. A head peaks through the door, shwoing the face of the docter. "Ah Mr Pattinson, come in." She voices with a fake voice as she stands up. flattening the wrinkles on her dress she waits till the doctor stands in front of her. "Tell me, how's your patient?" She asks as she shakes his hand and sits back down.

The doctor takes place on the chair in front of her and starts explaining "He's the worst case I've seen on getting a beating." He tells her truthfully. "Who told you he's been beaten?" She asks "No one, I just assumed." He answers slightly stressed. "Well, don't." She tells him off. "Right, well might I ask what happened then?" He questions her this time. "You might not." She answers shortly with raised eyebrow.

"I would advice for him to go to a hospital." He explains to her. Gia sighs loudly and remarks, "Mr Pattinson if we could go to a hospital do you think we would've called you?" He shakes his head no as an answer. "Now that we're on the same page. The only thing I have to know is if he's stable enough to go to Birmingham?" She makes the questions easier as if she's a mother trying to explain an easy subject to a confused todler.

"Not if he isn't under medical observation." He answers shortly. "Then you'll need to go with us, Mr Pattinson." She orders. "I can't, I have other patients." He states while backing up slightly. "You'll get paid double." She offers him with yet another sigh. He stands up and takes out his hand for her to shake, after a moment of reflecting on her offer. 

He turns around to leave her bureau, but is stopped by her. "Could you send in the man who's waiting outside? Grazie."

A soldier of her almost directly comes inside. "Ah Gino, sit down will ya." The man sits down in front of her. "So I heard you wanted to tell me something." She puts her hands on each other as she looks over the man. "Gia, you're my cousin, and I hold you dear, but I don't fucking agree with the Shelby's." He get's straight to the point.

"Why don't you?" She asks. "You don't know? Tommy made a deal yesterday with the fucking Jews. We've been at war with them for months, and now he's going to help them." He explains while using his hands. "I did know." She lies " But that's Angel's problem, not ours. You shouldn't worry." She explains to her cousing as if it's nothing. "I got some other things to get to." She stands up and leaves the bureau.

She walks straight to the room Tommy got led to. Gia isn't mad, but she questions why he wouldn't have told her. She slowly opens the door to see Tommy read the paper. He looks over his page, until he sees her standing in the door frame and folds the paper in two.

She slowly walks over to him and sits down next to him. Tommy observs every move she makes and shamelessly let's his eyes rake over her body. She looks at Arthur who is being taken care of by the doctor in a bed. "Once you take some rest we will leave for Birmingham." She announces while looking back at him who followed her eyesight and is now also fixated on his brother. 

"I'll rest in my next life." He tells her just over a whisper. "You might leave." She says out loud which makes him suddenly look at her. She turns her head at the doctor who nods and leaves the room.

"You met Mr Solomons." She starts. "I did." He confirms. "Why didn't you tell me?" She questions him slightly hurt. "Some things are better left unspoken." He recalls as he looks her in the eye. "You are a stubborn man I hope you know that." A small smile warms her lips. "It keeps me up at night." He answers makin her smile a bit harder. And even though his brother is laying next to him in pain he can't help himself but to slightly smile.

In the early morning, they arrived in Birmingham. Arthur has woken up during the travel and is already standing which the doctor said was a miracle. Because it is so early in the morning nobody is to be found in the betting den. Tommy decides to take advantage of the situation and show Gia around. They walk into the room and he starts putting on some candles. She undoes her vest and places it on a chair.

"We've got a new place, but everyone still comes here." He explains proudlyand opens the door to his office to get a drink. She leans against his bureau and watches him come closer with whiskey in his hand. She asks herself how things ever could've come down to this moment.

"I've got a surprise for you." he tells her as he looks down at her. He palces his whiskey next to her and puts his hands on her hips. Her hands place themselves on his underarms and she raisesher eyebrows. "You do?" She questions surprised. "Mhm." He kisses her. "A big one." He kisses her again. "But" He kisses her again. "It's." He kisses her again with a smile on his face as she starts laughing. "For." He kisses her. "later." He kisses her passionately, unlike the soft pecks before.

He has her and doesn't want to let her go. Tommy lifst her up on the surface. Her hands go to his necktie and loosen  it. He lays her down on her back which makes his glass fall and them laugh. They look each other in the eye with the biggest smile on their face. "Beautiful." He mumbles amazed.

He kisses her mouth then lowers to her neck. From her neck, he leaves small but strong kisses on her chest. While he kisses her his hands undresher. With her head tilted backwards and eyes shut she's feeling her body react to his every touch. In a matter of seconds, she only had underwear on and he's on his knees kissing right above it. He looks at her and says, "You're the only woman who has me on my knees"

With one quick move, he removes her panties. The warmth of his lips match the warmth of her thighs. Her moans fill the whole office and outside corridor. His hand snake up to her breast which makes her enjoy him even more. He leaves a trail of kisses up to her mouth and kisses her.

He alignes himself with her entrance and makes eye contact before slowly pushing himself inside of her. She puts herself on her elbows and kisses him slowlt to savour their combined taste. After the kiss, they both put their slightly sweaty heads against each other.

Some minutes later she feels a nod in her lower stomach form right before he does. He pushes two more times into her before she finds her release, while he found his release just after. Still, out of breath he kisses her forehead and pulls himself out of her.

In that very moment they had all they needed.
