A/N: Helloo people
I really wanted to bring you guys a new chapter today. I think I'm just excited because there's finally a teaser of Gangs of London season 2. Although we don't idea if Joe Cole will return for his role as Sean, I'm looking forward the next season.
Also as it's a fanfic I follow the plot of the TV Show, but you'll se sometimes I change the words or try to include something new just for the reading don't get too boring (it's kind of boring, right? reading and rereading same lines on fanfics and tv shows!)
Well. I hope you guys enjoy the reading and have a nice day!

When the church service ended, the Wallaces returned home. Sean practically dragged Lexi into the car, she just didn't know if it was with the intention of avoiding people giving their condolences or because he wanted to make sure she didn't disappear from his sight.
They waited in silence inside the vehicle. From the beginning of the funeral, Sean and Lexi had been holding each other's hands. She had the slight feeling that people were talking when they saw the two of them leaving the church together.
None of them seemed to dare to break the silence. But both, of course, were lost in their own minds. Lexi knew that Sean was more than motivated to find Finn's killer, even if he had to burn down London.
"Why my mother is taking so long?" Sean grumbled as he looked through the glass for Marian's signal.
"We should have stayed." Lexi said in a low tone.
"No. I can't stand people giving me condolences instead of anwers anymore." Sean snapped.
"You need to get your head on straight first" Lexi whispered, looking at him for the first time. "They won't trust you if they feel your decisions are based on rash desires and attitudes."
"I don't need to be trusted. I don't give a fuck."
"So you want to see the business disappear?"
"I want to find my father's killer, Alexandra! Is it so hard to understand?!
He didn't scream, but there was frustration in Sean's voice and Lexi felt uncomfortable at the way he said her name. She glared at him.
"You want to find Finn's killer. Fine! We already understood it. But no one is going to want to help you find shit if you keep acting like a spoiled brat. So get your shit together and stop fighting with the only persons who still believes in you and who is on your side!

As soon as they got home, brunch was served. But luckily it passed quickly, because Sean wasn't in the mood to eat or talk to people, especially after having had an argument with Alexandra.
He couldn't explain it, but he was pissed at the girl. Certainly resentful of the way she had spoken to him, however, it wasn't quite that simple. Every time Sean thought about Lexi, he also thought about the promise he'd made to Dmitri and hadn't kept. He thought of the Sunday morning he'd woken up and found she'd left without saying goodbye. He thought about the emails and calls that never got back.
He drank whiskey to forget a little about Alexandra Dragomirov.
He heard a knock on his father's study door and invited the person inside.
"Everything is okay there?" Alex asked.
"Define okay," Sean said playing with his whiskey glass.
