Sofia // Peaky Blinders

37

Sofia walked side by side with Luca as they slowly walked down the cobbled streets of small heath. Her hair slowly danced with the wind. She looked up at her husband to see him smiling.

In his eyes, he had won in his own eyes and his men eyes. In reality it was Tommy who won. Lucas hand slowly made its way down the small of Sofias back. He pushed her forwards slightly, telling her to go first.

She clenched her lips together and rolled her eyes. She opened the doors and slowly walked down the rickety stairs. Her heels making loud proding sounds.

Tommy stood there, his eyebrow raised as he saw Soifa walking down first. He shook his head thinking how much a pig Luca really was. Sofia gave Tommy a small smile before moving out the way.

Luca smiled and raised his hands up. "Tommy Shelby". He muttered. He looked around the room and smiled. "After a little sign of a piece of paper, this will all be mine". He muttered.

He turned to look at Tommy. "I told you I was going to win. See how easy it is. An eye for an eye they say. I mean you've lost two brother now why don't I just make it three". He pulled out his gun and pointed it towards Finn.

Sofia frowned and raised her hand. She gently pressed it on his arm and shook her head. "Non Luca hai già vinto. (Don't Luca you've already won)". She softly whispered. She looked over at Tommy and then back to her husband. She grabbed his gun and placed it on the ground.

He looked back at Tommy and smirked. His arm tightly wrapped around Sofia's waist. "How does it feel to know that you've been lied to?" Tommy asked.

Luca frowned. "Scusami (excuse me)"

Tommy smirked and walked forwards. "There are no papers to sign. I wasn't going to hand over everything to you. I've sent Michael, remember the one you got shot and nearly killed. Well I've sent him to America". Luca stood there seething, his arm getting tighter around Sofia's waist.

"He has told the mafiosos that your dead. That you died in a vendetta. And when I do kill you I will send them your body". Luca pushed Sofia from his side and attacked Tommy.

All around Sofia men where fighting. The Blinders vs the Mafiosos. She watched as Tommy had the upper hand. Luca was now all bloody.

He stood there defeatless. "Sofia". He croaked. She looked at him a single tear slowly falling down her cheek. As a reflect she walked towards him, but was stopped as someone grabbed her arm.

She turned her head to see Arthur walking down the stairs. She could see in that moment Luca knew he was done for.

"Cosa stai facendo? Aiutami ora. (What are you doing? Help me now)". He shouted towards his wife. She stood there and shook her head.

She watched as Arthur walked towards him. He raised his arm, his gun placed firmly in his hands. Tommy muttered out loud. "We will use his death to win this war". Sofia jumped at the sound of Arthur's gun.

She watched as the limp body of her husband fell to the ground.

"Leave. All of ya". Arthur muttered to Lucas men. The men started to leave. One man stood beside Sofia waiting for her to follow. Her eyes where still trained on her husbands body. She shook her head slightly and felt them move away from her.

"Tell your boss what you saw here today. And tell him, you don't fuck with the Peaky Blinders". He finally muttered.

Sofia walked towards her father's dead body. The Shelby's eyes where all trained on her as she knelt beside him. "Tu eri l'amore della mia vita. L'uomo con cui volevo passare il resto della mia vita, avere figli, ma finalmente mi hai mostrato chi sei veramente dove. Per questo non ti perdono. Spero che tu marcisca all'inferno. (You were the love of my life. The man I wanted to spend the rest of my life with, to have children with but you finally showed me who you really where. For that I don't forgive you. I hope you rot in hell). She softly muttered.

She stood up and brushed down her dress. She stood there with her back to the family.

"Thank you for your services". She muttered. She turned around and pulled a pair of silk gloves from her purse. She pulled them on and muttered. "For that I am deeply thankful. If you need help with your business in America you know where I am". She smiled at the family and started to walk of.

"Where are you going?" Finn asked.

Sofia smiled sadly and turned to him. "Because of what I have done. The crimes I have committed against my husband I have to stay low until I get back to America. There will be people that are still loyal to Luca. That's why I advise you to be careful. He may of had plenty of enemies but he had a handful of friends to". She smiled at the family and said. "It was lovely meeting you all. Maybe one day in the future we will meet again, in better circumstances".

Polly smiled sadly at the girl and asked. "If you see Michael at all tell him I miss him". Sofia smiled and answered. "Of course". She looked at the dead body of her husband once again and sighed.

"Thank you". She whispered as she looked at Arthur. He nodded his head and walked towards her. He pulled her into a tight hug and whispered. "It was lovely meeting you Sofia". She smiled up at him and nodded. She made one last look at the family before walking up the stairs.

Outside she was met with Tony. "All your cases are in the back". He muttered. She smiled and nodded. They both sat in the car in silence for a moment. "Are you okay?" He asked. She looked at him and nodded. "Of course. I just can't wait to get home". She rested her head on the window and sighed as she left the streets of Birmingham.
