Wind wooshed across the green empty fields far from the arrow house.Shelby family members all stood in a circle around the pit dug by Johnny dogs in between.

Black veil covered her face like a bride devoured from her beauty who now looked like a lifeless body on a shore.Her tall frame standing still near his grave with her hands in front of her holding his belonging

His cigarette case

"Oi!"Y/n walked inside the betting den mimicking Tommy's voice.Everyone stopped what they were doing and stared at y/n

"Are we getting the work done ere properly?"she said copying his thick accent.Everyone smiled and played along with her

Polly walked forward with a smirk on her face

"Oi Tommy!We're getting the work done ere alright.It's going in a smooth flow don't you worry!"polly chuckled.Y/n made his amusement face with her lips slightly pouted upwards and her head nodding in agreement

"Very well then carry on!Carry on!"y/n waved her hands in the air and walked to the platform with the black board.She was wearing Tommy's coat so she took out his cigarette packet and rubbed it on her lips like he did

"Ahem"she heard his voice.Y/n stiffened and turned around to see Tommy standing there with his lips perched in a thin line.

Y/n laughed awkwardly as he approached her.The cigarette was still between her teeth and Tommy loved the way she looked with it

He took out his match and lighted it.

"You look amazing with cigarettes"he kissed her neck making her chuckle and laugh because it tickled a little.

Y/n remembered that memory clear as day.She let out a shaky breath and looked down at the metal case in her hand.

He was gone

And he was never coming back

Y/n felt her life turn black dark and empty.His death touched them all so badly but it hurt y/n a lot more than expected.

"Mama"charlie babbled.Y/n was sitting on the floor with her back leaning against the sofa.She closed her eyes when she heard there son call her

It would never sound the same

Y/n put on a fake smile in her teary eyes and picked the child up.He fiddled with strands of her hair while she smiled and brushed his hair

Y/n closed her eyes again and let tears fall out from them.It was silent for a minute with Charlie babbling something under his breath.

"Dada?"he mumbled.Y/n opened her eyes and looked at her son.She didn't understand what he said

"Dada!"he smiled happily and continued to look towards a chair kept a little far from them.Y/n furrowed her eyebrows and looked at where he was looking.She saw that he was staring at the chair Tommy used to sit at and work in

The one near the fireplace with the desk in front

"What is it Charlie?"she nudged him a little and he looked back at his mother and pointed his little fingers there

"Dada!"y/n's heart stopped in her chest.She snapped her head at the direction and looked at it in disbelief

Y/n kept Charlie down on the floor while he played with the rug and she got up and took small steps to the chair

A tear slipped from her eye.A sob escaped her lips.She looked at his desk and picked up his coat kept on the chair taking a sniff from it and sobbing in the cloth

"I miss you Tommy"she breathed out as tears fell on the cloth.

She just hoped he heard her wherever he was.But little did she know that he was right in front of her

Tommy smiled at seeing her sniff his coat just like she used to before sleeping.Tommy walked closer to her and placed his hand on her cheek

Y/n felt a soft breeze on her cheek making goosebumps rise on her skin.She looked up and saw his smiling face looking at her.A blurry halo of white light surrounding him

"Tommy"y/n breathed out.He smiled at her softly and cupped both her cheeks.He leaned his forehead on hers and kissed her nose

Y/n sobbed and held his hands tightly

"Take good care of Charlie y/n"he whispered.Y/n nodded and promised she would never let there son feel his absence

"And I'll take good care of you"
