Grace lay on the cold hard hospital bed, unconscious with 6 surgeons crowed round her, working tirelessly to save her life.
Whilst this was happening the whole Shelby family were in the waiting room, along with Harry the barman and most of the Peaky Blinders. Tommy wasn't sitting, he was pacing. Up and down up and down. He couldn't stop thinking about Grace, was she alive? Was this all his fault? What would he do without her?
"Tommy, you should sit down." Said aunt Poll. Tommy ignored her. He just kept on pacing and worrying.
It was getting late and Ada took Charles home, along with all the other kids, John and Esme went as well along with harry, Micheal, Arthur, Linda and most of the Peaky Blinders. But Tommy wasn't going anywhere. It was just him, Aunt poll and a few Peaky Blinders who stayed incase there was any more trouble.
It had been 6 hours since they got to the hospital, and Tommy was beginning to prepare for the worst, however horrid and sickening the worst will be. But just as Tommy was loosing hope, out through the operating room door comes a doctor.
"Mr Shelby?" Says the doctor. Tommy practically sprints to him.
"Yes that's me, is she okay? Is she alive?" Tommy says quickly.
"She's alive." Tommy was overcome with joy. She was alive. Grace was alive. Everything was going to be okay, as long as he had grace, he didn't need anyone else, not his business, not his brothers.
"Can I see her?" He pleaded.
"Yes, but she's on a lot of meds so she will be very out of it." Replies the doctor.
Tommy nods and races through the door. There lies Grace, helpless and wounded. Tommy's heart breaks a little seeing her like this, knowing it was his fault.
"Grace." Tommy has softly. Grace turns her head a little, but winces, another part of Tommy breaks, he can't stand to see her in pain.
"Hey Tommy, you know I think we should get one of these beds at home, they are SO comfy." Grace smiles weakly, looking into her loves eyes. She knew what he would be thinking, that it was all his fault, she wouldn't let him think.
"Tommy I don't want you to thi-" Tommy held up his hand, as walks closer to me.
"Don't say it grace, please don't say it. This was my fault. I push people to far and I almost go you killed." He looks down like he is ashamed, but walks right up to her all the same. He finally looks into her eyes, blue into blue, love stronger than either of them have felt before.
"Tommy it's ok." Grace says as she puts her hand on his face, stroking her thumb across his cheekbone, this seems to ease Tommy, as if he forgets where he is. But then he is snapped back into reality.
"None of this is okay Grace! Look at you. You are in a hospital bed recovering from a gunshot wound which is my fault! I should never of put you in danger like that. I wasn't on my guard. I should of known, I pushed the Changrettas to far and I should of known something like this would of happened. I'm so sorry Grace. I'm so so sorry. I understand if you want to leave, go back to a life without me and all this fucked up shit. Just as long as I know you are safe. I love you Grace." Grace was speechless as looked into the eyes of the only man she has ever truly loved and tried to imagine her like without him. But that's the thing, she just couldn't.
"Tommy, your a very smart guy, so I don't know how you could say something so stupid. I will never leave. I'm sorry Tommy but you mean to much to me. You and Charles are my whole like and I can't imagine like without you two. I love you Tommy and me and you stick together through anything. I admit this was pretty bad you it wasn't your fault and I don't want to hear you say that ever again. I'm here for long run, tommy, whether you like it or not." Grace smirks and tommy realise telling her to get away from him is a lost cause as well as trying to convince her this gunshot was his fault, even though tommy knew this was his fault. The whole fucking thing.
"Grace I love you, and I promise nothing like this will happen again." He cups her face in his hands and kisses her gently, savouring the sweetness of her lips and realising he nearly lost her. How he nearly never got to tell her that he loved her ever again. How he nearly never god to hold her small hands again. How he nearly never got to go on walks with her and Charles again. Tommy now realised he was angry. Angrier then he had ever been before. And vowed that he would get his revenge.
