Alfie- Love At First Sight Pt2

From the moment I met Alfie Solomons, I wasn't able to get him out of my mind. I've heard woman talk about love at first sight, but until now I never believed in such a thing. Ada always told me I just hadn't found the one. So what does this mean? that Alfie Solomons is the one I'm meant to be with? no surly not. I knock on the doors to the 'bakery'. I couldn't be standing there for longer than 10 seconds when the door opens revealing the man who's been haunting my dreams
"Mr Solomons" I greet the man as he lets me
"Alfie, call me Alfie. It's good to see you YN"
"Right well Alfie, Tom sent me to help" I smile at Alfie who smiles back to me
"Follow me" Alfie turns around and leads me to his office "Ollie mate get the woman a chair"
"Of course" Ollie says dragging a chair next to Alfie's
"Right. Next" Alfie shouts and in walks a man "name"
"Abbey Heath"
"Profession?"
"Baker"
"Good lad, fill it out and fuck off. Next lad" Alfie shouts once again "name"
"Buddy Halls"
"Buddy Halls. Right, profession?"
"Baker"
"Good lad, fill it out and fuck off!"
"You sure have a way with words Alfie" I chuckle at how rude the man is being
"I'll try to be nicer. Next lad. Name"
"Billy Kitchen" a man I know Tommy has sent to make sure this alliance goes to plan
"Occupation?"
"Head baker" Alfie looks at me then back to Billy
"Fill it out"
"See wasn't so hard now was it?" I raise an eyebrow
"Never give power to the big man, what did I tell you?" Alfie turns to Ollie "that Tommy Shelby" he sakes his head.

Eventually Alfie has finished vetting people and it's my turn to talk to them all. Alfie has them stood in the distillery waiting for me to arrive. When I do I hear many scoffs
"What's a woman doing down here?" one asks
"No place for a woman"
"You'd do well at..."
"No it's ok Alfie. They don't know me yet. But they will" I walk in front of Alfie smiling "I assume many of you will know of my brothers, specifically Tommy Shelby" theirs a few mutters "now, you've all been enrolled as bakers in the Aerated Bread Company of Camden Town. If anyone asks, that's what you do. You're bakers. The coppers in Camden Town are on our side, but north or south, you show them that piece of paper. Tell them you've come down from the north to find work, to break strikes. Tell them
you're fascists if you have to. I don't fucking care. We're finding lodgings for you but, for now, you'll sleep here in the bakery. But don't touch any of the bread, it'll most likely explode. Any questions?"
"Why isn't Mr Shelby here himself? why send a whore?" one man asks. I chuckle shaking my head and walk over to him
"A whore? your funny"
"Well it's obvious isn't it? the one of the Shelby sisters fucking Mr Solomons for money"
"Alfie" I then to look at Alfie who's arms are crossed. He walks over to the man who called me a whore while I take a step back. Using his cane Alfie then hits the man who's stood next to the lad who called me a whore
"He'll wake up. Granted he won't have any teeth left but he will be a wiser man for it. And the last thing he will remember is your funny little joke. Won't he? Right!" watching Alfie take control just does something for me. Defending my honour to start with had me swooning. He continues to talk to the men telling them what is expected of them and what would happen if the fucked anything up  "now" he starts "before you all fuck off. Miss Shelby here will have respect. If I hear wind of any of you, yeah, calling her a fucking whore or anything, right, you will be dealing with her and her brothers. He" Alfie points to the man on the floor "got off lucky yeah. Don't let there be a next time" Alfie crosses his arms and the room is silent "now fuck off all of you!" he shouts before walking over to me "this is going to be a fucking mess"
"Let's hope for yours and Tommys sake it won't" I tell Alfie before walking out of the distillery.

Later on after some supper Alfie takes me to a spare room at his home as I will be staying her over the weekend
"YN I hope you find this room comfortable, yeah. Ask Ollie if you need anything"  Alfie says opening up the a bedroom door for me and I walk in
"Thank you Alfie" I give him a smile as he closes the door behind him. I go into the bathroom and get myself ready for bed. The images of Alfie from earlier on plague my mind. Fuck how the hell am I going to stay here with Alfie for the weekend?
