Are you lot ready for some shocking changes in this chapter because i thought about it and i'm going there haha :) (Although they may not be shocking but i wanted to add this into the book for such a long time)


Thomas's POV

"Right Michael nobody else knows what we're going to do so you gotta keep quiet about it" my eyes stared at the younger boy

"Right" he murmured while puffing out smoke from his cigarette "How do you know where to find him?"

"I'm Thomas Shelby i know everything" i laughed as i jump up and grab my coat making my towards the door with Michael hot on my heels.

Ell's POV

 Loud knocks on my door rose me from my sleep. "Hang on" i groan while dragging my tired body towards the olden door.

"Morning Ell, ready to come home" The devil himself stood outside my door acting as if he was an angel.

"I've told you George i'm not going"

"Tough luck kiddo you've got to you're not an adult yet so you have to come with me" he said while dragging my arm out of the door

"Hang on let me get my things, if i'm never coming back at least let me grab my clothes" i say while shoving him away. Slowly, i took my time climbing the stairs hoping praying that somebody would come and kill him before he could take me away but sadly that dream didn't become a reality as i dragged my bags down the stairs and out of the door locking it drinking in the olden memory filled home. I turned around stumbling my way to the lovely car that awaited us. Gently placing my bags in the back of the car i hopped in the front.

"If i'll be living with you George i want to know where we'll be going." i deadpanned

"Manchester" He sighed "I've missed you Ell i know i seem like the bad guy here but when i found out you were here in Birmingham i couldn't pass the opportunity to see you again. I'm a changed man now Ell i promise. I have a beautiful wife at home with two gorgeous girls who have been dying to meet since i mentioned you"

"You have children?"

"Yes"

"And a wife"

"Yes"

"You've stopped with the drugs and alcohol?"

"Yes. Ronnie changed me Ell for good. It was two years i abandoned at the orphanage she found me and helped me" he sighed as he drove through the dirty streets of my once home. Before we go anywhere i have to make a quick stop Mr Shelby's orders" He mumbled as we pulled up outside of Polly's house and jumping out. He briskly jogged up to the front door handing over a key. The key to my old home and a envelope. He jogged back even quicker and got back into the car and sped off down the road before i even got the chance to wave Polly off.    

*7 months later* 

Still Ell's POV

Living with George was as bad as i thought it would be. He wasn't a changed man just like he had promised. Also Thomas often writes to me and George asking how me and the baby are doing. Did i forget to mention i am currently 8 months pregnant with Finn's baby. So far everything was running smoothly but let's not jinx anything. Both Tommy and Michael both know of my whereabouts but none of the other Shelby's know where i am or how i am doing. 

Every now and then Michael will ring to see how i am doing and ask about the baby but he usually just talks about Finn and how he has been miserable.

Manchester was a nice change of scenery although i dearly missed Birmingham, the constant squabbling due to the boys or Polly shouting at Michael for not doing something in the house. George was terrible company and even worse he got drunk which was becoming more frequent with each passing day. It all started when Ronnie had found out she was pregnant with their 3rd child which they couldn't afford and then to top it off i found out i was pregnant. Ronnie was over the moon when she found out she always joked about us giving birth at the same time and the babies being best friends while growing up. 

George didn't take the news lightly he drunk until he passed out most nights which caused Ronnie and her sons to leave so they could live with her parents. This meant now Ronnie wasn't in the house anymore he aimed all his anger at me. This had happened for many months now until now. 

"You little bitch you ruin everything no wonder why mum killed herself" he screamed as he shoved me out of the house with all my clothes packed in the same bag they arrived in. Slamming the door in my face. That was it i was homeless and pregnant with just a few pound in my pocket to get me home. But where was home when you are homeless?

And that's when it came to me. The letters Thomas had sent they have an address on them. I know where to go. I know where home is.

Sooo i thought i would be a good idea to make Ell pregnant because i thought maybe it was time and it spices it up a bit i think. Until next time - E :)
