Arthur- Late

12:03am and Arthur still isn't home, he promised he would be home by 10 tonight but obviously something more important than our wedding anniversary came up. I sigh blowing out the candle that I had lit and throw away the food I had cooked for him. I already ate mine.
I walk upstairs and get into mine and Arthur's shared bedroom. I get changed and get under the covers. I seem to be lying there for a while not being able to sleep when I hear the front door open then shut.

I hear Arthur's footsteps walking up the stairs and into the bedroom. I pretend to be asleep
"I know your awake.. stop pretending" I sigh "ahh the silent treatment. Look I'm sorry. I'm sorry I'm late"
"2 hours late" I mumble
"I'm sorry I ruined our anniversary" I feel the bed dip and an arm around my waist
"If Peaky business doesn't kill you first it will kill our relationship. I don't know how much longer I can't do this Arthur. This is the 4th time this week that you've come home late" I sniffle
"I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Please can we talk about this?"
"I'm tired Arthur. We can talk tomorrow" I close my eyes. I feel Arthur kiss my shoulder and pull me closer to him
"I really am sorry"

The next morning I wake up to an empty cold bed. I sigh feeling rather deflated. I get up and open the bedroom door, but weirdly I can smell food. I frown not knowing what's going on, but once I get to the kitchen I see Arthur mumbling to himself running his hand under cold water. I chuckle to myself and go over to the stove turning it off and taking the bacon out of the pan and onto a plate
"Sorry. I burnt my hand. Was trying to make you breakfast in bed to say sorry about last night"
"I'm just scared that the business will always come before me. Or that your going to be drinking again" Arthur dries his hands on a tea towel and then places his hands on the sides of my face
"The business will never come before you. I promise. Last night, last night I was talking to Tommy and John about having a break. I wanted to take you away for a week, but before I left we had a problem. Some lads came in mouthing off about you Emse and Grace and we couldn't help but put them in their place. I really am sorry"
"So what did Tommy say?"
"About?" Arthur seems confused
"About us going away" I chuckle
"Yes. We go away next week"
"We do?" I ask excitedly
"We do" Arthur wraps me up in his arms "I really am sorry about last night"
"I know. Just please come home at a reasonable time and if Tommy isn't letting you I'll march down to his office and I'll give him a piece of my mind"
"I'm sure you will. Now I have today off. What would you like to do?"
"Hmmm I'm torn between a stay at home day or the pictures"
"How about we do both? stay at home for the day then tonight we can go to the pictures and watch whatever you'd like" Arthur kisses me on the lips making me smile
"I love you you Arthur Shelby"
"And I love you YN Shelby"
