Thomas Shelby imagines-a new chapter

78.In all gods name c.m

(Please bring this song back )

Soft piano music played behind in the fancy bar.Y/n was currently in Italy,she was living there for a few months for a business deal.

She quietly sipped on her wine while she watched the crowd.Something about this place was reminding her of an old lover

Cillian

She remembered how he used to respond when she always used to eat only Italian food and wanted to go to Italy

He used to say a simple sentence "Anything for you my love" and it was more than enough to give her butterflies and make her weak on the knees.It had been long since they broke up

But there was no denying that y/n still felt things for him.

Call it gods miracle!But she suddenly heard a very familiar voice right behind her.

"One whiskey on rocks"she heard that voice and she knew where it was from.Her heart dropped in her stomach and she didn't dare to turn around because she was afraid that it might be him

"Something for you ma'am?"the bartender asked.Oh shit she had to speak now

"Uh..no I'm fine"she replied in a low voice.Y/n could sense eyes behind her.There was an eery silence over them just when she heard him speak again

"Y/n?Y/n l/n?"y/n's eyes went wide and she turned around.Her heart stopped beating and butterflies rose in her stomach,goosebumps running up her spine.

She met his soft smile yet again and it brought back those feelings.It made her whole world turn upside down

"Cillian..oh my god it's been so long"she breathed out a breath that she didn't realise she was holding

"How have you been?"

Really bad

"Good good yeah"she shrugged

"What about you?"she asked

Miserable without you

"I've been good too yeah"he said putting his palm on his knee.For a minute there was a silence on them,just them observing each other's features again smiling

"You seem happy"she said

"Well That's because I saw you again"he said y/n chuckled feeling her cheeks blush in a warm pink colour,her stomach tingling more than anything now

"Well I can't complain with that"she patted her shoulder making him laugh.Oh his whole hearted warm laugh it made her melt

"So what do you do now?"Cillian asked.

"Well you remember my interest in cars right?"she asked and he nodded very well remembering how she always used to be behind him that she wanted to drive his car all around town

"Right"

"Well I have a few dealerships and showrooms  here and there and it's makin a good profit so far.And I don't need to ask about you sir Thomas Shelby"she said referring to his acting career and the show making him chuckle

"So you know"

"Who doesn't know you cillian?!You're everywhere....when we were teens you were so into music!Now it's acting?You're a creative man"she smiled.

For hours they talked there.She would remind him of old memories and it would make him laugh hard.

He would remind her of her stubborn behaviour back then and her silly mistakes and it would make her blush and laugh with embarrassment

Cillian's face would always soften hearing her laugh again.It was the most soulful thing in the world

Eventually the night had to end.A good part of it was just them looking at each other all the time.People around could sense it between them and they would smile a little at them

It would confuse them but they would just brush it off.In the end Cillian gave her his card and she gave him his own

Y/n got out of the club and by the window,she would look at Cillian smiling at her,she would smile back and wave at him finally walking away

She looked down at his card and blushed seeing his name written on it

It was the next morning and y/n felt like taking the day off from work,her mind was just too occupied so she decided to go at the park alone and take some fresh air

She was sitting on the bench,her fingers grazing the corner of his card with his number on it.

Y/n felt someone sit beside her,she turned her head and saw an old lady sit beside her.

"Good morning"she greeted

"Morning darling"the lady smiled.Y/n looked back at the card and went back into her thoughts.

"Hmmm...I remember feeling like that"the lady replied looking at the scenery at front.Y/n looked at her with furrowed eyebrows

"You did?"she asked

"Mm hmm....I once dated this boy,he was sweet,charming,handsome and got the most prettiest eyes.We went out separate ways once but then destiny brought him to me again.And i was right where you're at today...looking at his number and thinking"the lady smiled.Y/n huffed out a chuckle and nodded

"It's just......I was in love with him for so long.He was my first love ever...and for years we were together but then just one day good things came to an end and we separated.For 15 years we didn't see each other and now he's back in my life and I just....it's all coming back to me.I thought I stopped loving him but no.....it's still there"

She sighed.The lady smiled and looked at her with eyes that knew this feeling

"Well I say...you talk to him.What is your mind telling you right now?"

"That I should just let it be?...that I should give myself time?"she replied.The lady hummed and held y/n's hand and placed it on y/n's heart

"And what does your heart say?"

Y/n closed her eyes and felt the heartbeat drumming in her ears

"That I should listen to it"she replied.

"You should.Listen to your heart y/n....it never lies"the lady smiled.Y/n opened her eyes again

"Wait how did you know-

But when she turned her head....the lady was gone.The bench was empty with just her sitting there.Y/n looked around in search of the lady but she was no where to be seen

Only a white card lay on the bench

She picked it up with her fingers and opened it

"Listen to your heart
Your mind will follow"
