Thomas Shelby imagines-a new chapter

100.Hundered years of life

"I'm turning hundred today....and till this day..I remember him clear as day"she whispered staring at the dried rose in her hand

Her daughter who was now grown and having kids of her own sat at the ground near her mothers feet..listening to another tale about her father

"How did he look?Tell me that again"she said softly to her mother.Y/n stared down at her lap smiling to herself a little feeling the warm feeling of love settle in her stomach again

"Oh he....he was the most dangerous man in town.."she chuckled weakly

"I remember that day very well when we first saw each other"

She rushed in the muddy street with the rose bouquet in her hand.She laughed whole heartedly in excitement to adorn her own garden with those flowers

"Whoops excuse me!"she shouted dodging people around her and rushing through between them.She could see her house and it made her smile as she ran faster

But what she didn't notice in that thrill was the road with a car approaching on full speed

"How does it feel coming back home eh Tommy?"Arthur smiled smugly staring at his brother look out the window with boring eyes smoking a cigarette quietly

"It's been you an year since you came,ain't it?"he tried to engage Tommy in a conversation

"Yeah I-"he was about to speak before Arthur pulled the breaks to the car loudly making a screech noise stop all sounds around him

Tommy's hand held at the front for holding his balance before his eyes snapped up to the diversion.He looked up to see roses falling down from the sky In a slow yet swift motion

"Ah fuck"Arthur groaned.Tommy opened the door to the car in an instance and got out walking to the person who got hit by the car

But his feet stopped as soon as he closed the car door.His eyes fixated on this beautiful woman dusting her skirt off and tapping the mud away from her boots

Her eyebrows furrowed with anger and irritation,eyes burning with fire like that of a goddess.Golden hair flowing in the air and roses falling around her,petals falling in between the puzzling tangles of her hair

"Are you alright?"he asked because he realised he was staring for too long

"Huh..no I'm not alright sir!"she scolded in anger getting back up and picking up the roses from the ground

"I'll help you with that alright?"he came forward leaning down to pick a rose up.

"I don't need help.All I request is for you to ask your-driver"she said looking at Arthur coming out of the car fuming in irritation

"To be more careful.He was very close to hitting me"she complained and for a minute it shocked Tommy that she was going on and on and had no idea who was standing in front of her

"You!Be more careful!"she shouted at Arthur and turned around with her muddy roses to leave at once.Arthur growled while Tommy could do nothing but stare

At the emptiness where he could smell her scent.His head was clouded with her words,her face,and that rose that lingered with her scent that was in his hand

And he did not realise

That a thorn had sliced through his skin there

making its mark on him

"He was cold,dangerous and dark...but his features...well all women were ready to give their lives for him"y/n continued

"Yeah all except you?"her daughter chuckled a little
