Thomas Shelby Imagines

Who do you work for?

Tommy watched you carefully from across the bar. People had spoken of a woman from Camden Town, naturally Tommy had to find out what was going on, assuming your lack of attention was due to you working for Alfie.

"Haven't seen you around before." Tommy greeted as he joined you at the bar.

"Ain't been here long." You sighed nonchalantly, finding yourself a cigarette.

"Well then let me buy you a welcoming drink." Tommy motioned for the bartender but you hopped down from your stool and grabbed your bag.

"Just coz I'm on my own, don't mean that I can't pay for my drink." You tossed some money to the bartender and left, knowing that Tommy was watching you leave.

"A lady came to see you, she's sat in the office." Someone told Tommy as soon as he stepped inside.

"Who?" He asked quickly, following the direction the man pointed in.

"We tried to get her to come back, wouldn't leave until you spoke to her." He explained, glancing your way as Tommy hurried over to you.

"You the Thomas Shelby that's set men on me?" You snapped as soon as he opened his office door.

"I'm currently dealing with people from London, you don't think it's a bit odd that you turn up now?" he asked, crossing his hands behind him as you shook you head.

"You think I'm stupid enough to get involved with them, I wanted to get away from people like you, live peacefully and undisturbed." You huffed which made him chuckle.

"Came to the wrong city for that." You glared at his words and shot to your feet.

"Mr Shelby, remove your men or I will find a way to get them removed." You threatened.

"How would you plan on doing that if you don't have anything to do with my... dealings in London?" He watched you think for a moment.

"Police?" you offered hopefully.

"On my pay roll, you could move but they'll follow you." He didn't flinch when you slammed his office door and stormed from the building in frustration.
