71.From orphan to woman

(Requested by @Abeer3xxx)

Tommy walked in the room with a cigarette in his mouth.Arthur say up straight slamming his whiskey glass on the table gulping the liquid at once

"Alright let's start with this"polly said.John had a toothpick in his mouth which he flicked away and sat down on the round table

"Yes...Today's meeting is to discuss and enquire for a new supplier for arms.Polly?Any suggestions?"tommy blew out smoke from his mouth

"Well we used to have billy boy before...but since we're going on a higher level of business I suggest someone from london...I heard of a woman supplying guns"

"A woman?"Arthur scrunched his face in confusion with a huff of a laugh

"Yes...you have a problem with that Arthur?"polly asked raising her eyebrow taking that as offensive to her.

"No...."he looked away

"Very well I'll tell some men to go there take the details...I'll get the address and we'll be leaving two days from now for london"Tommy said and left the room almost immediately to go for his business

"Might be a change...tired of seeing men in business...they only fuck it up"polly stood up.John looked at Arthur raising his eyebrows and Arthur sighed, stood up and left too

The men all created chaos together.A new shipping of weaponry was in at her supply dock.Boat bell rang loudly and another boat came in quickly

She walked in on her black boots,the mud and leaves crushing below her heels.A cigarette in between her fingers,her brown hair bouncing on her shoulders

She adjusted her hat checking the time on her gold watch while she walked towards the dock.

"Alright everyone!"she shouted clapping her hand together loudly.The men all gathered around her taking off their hats

"New shipping is coming in an hour again.I'm sending some more help...let's make it quick now got 15 more orders alright?!"she shouted

"Goin fast on business eh Miss l/n"the man smiled

"Yes Luke we're fast on business.Might as well give you all a raise if you move those hands faster!Alright leave fuck off!"she said putting her cigarette back in her mouth sending the men back to work

"Miss l/n..we got another order"her assistant walked up to her.Y/n sighed scratching her forehead with her thumb

"It's from Birmingham small Heath,..it's-"he paused looking around.Y/n furrowed her eyebrows

"It's the peaky blinders.The order was place from Thomas Shelby"

"I've heard that name before"she mumbled thinking where it was she heard it

"It was placed by Thomas Shelby and Polly Gray apparently"

Polly Gray.Now it clicked.Y/n stood still looking at the ground,her cigarette in between her lips.

Children's laughter.

Sunshine coming through the curtains

Her brown hair down on her shoulders,while she stared out the window.Lonely eyes....fucked up shit in her mind

Until she heard a voice of a woman beside her

"Why are you sitting alone love"a young woman with curled brown hair leaned down beside her chair.The young girl turned her face to the lady

"I want to"she replied innocently

"Why?"the lady asked politely.The girl turned her head outside the window again
