Alfie Solomons Imagines

A Year

You waited nervously for the right moment. See that your brothers were all distracted you grabbed Ada's arm and hurried down the corridor as you called for Polly to follow.

"Why are we here?" Ada asked as you shooed her and Polly into a side room.

"Because I'm throwing a party. To celebrate that... Alfie and I have been together for a year." You said gently. Polly raised her eyebrows and shook her head while Ada crossed her arms.

"How did you manage to date him for a whole year without any of us noticing?" She asked in a condescending tone as she cocked her head to the side and looked you up and down.

"Well... A bit of help from Finn and a few secrets here and there." You admitted slyly. She shook her head and looked at Polly who sighed.

"Well if they're dating at least he won't be in a rush to kill any of us." She pointed out to Ada who groaned as she reluctantly agreed to break the news to your brothers.

"You've been dating my sister." Tommy said as he finally broke the awkward silence that had filled his office since Alfie had arrived and been invited to one side to speak with Tommy.

"I have. She didn't want anyone else to know. For a while at least." Alfie muttered out and fiddled with his glasses.

"I... how did you manage to keep her safe?" Tommy asked, surprised that you'd managed to sneak around. You'd never had a habit of deception, in fact, Polly could tell you were lying by looking at you.

"We had a meeting place. Never met here or in London. Only one driver knew about us and I trust his with my life." Alfie explained cautiously. He still wasn't sure what your brothers reactions to the two of you would be.

"You... you've both been careful. I can't tell her what to do anymore she's an adult. But if you hurt her..." They both shared a serious look and laughed. They both knew what Tommy would do if Alfie hurt you, they didn't need to say a thing.

The gathering was small. Ada helped keep everyone in line and for the most part it went well. Tommy and Alfie were avoiding each other but Michael and Finn were happy to help Isaiah lighten the mood with teasing taunts and jokes.
