You took a deep breath as you looked up at the massive house that belonged to your twin brother, Thomas. You shook your head at the sad memories that slowly crept into your mind and stepped inside. "Hello, Miss (Y/N). May I take your coat?" You gave the maid a small smile. "Thank you." She helped you out of it and draped it over her arm. "Mr. Shelby is expecting you in his office, but he has asked that you wait in the parlor with your brothers." You gave her a small smile and walked to the parlor. "Hello, lads." You said as you saw John and Arthur were already waiting. "Lovely as always, (Y/N)." Arthur said as he stood up. He placed a kiss on your cheek and you patted his cheek. "Late as always." John muttered from his chair. You punched his arm as you took a seat beside him. "Ow." He rubbed his arm and you rolled your eyes. "Do you know what this is about?" You asked. "No idea. We thought you would know." You were about to respond when the office door opened. "Come in." You heard Tommy say. You, Arthur, and John shared a look before standing up and walking in. John walked in first; Arthur, who was in front of you, froze in the doorway. "What the fuck." He said. You placed a hand on his shoulder. "What?" You asked softly. "Arthur! Arthur!" You froze when you heard that voice. You peered around him and saw exactly who you thought it would be- Allie Solomons. You frowned and pushed Arthur out of the way. "(Y/N), love! You look absolutely-" Before he could finish, you smacked him across the face. "Beautiful." He said before lookin at you. "That was for what you did to Arthur." You smacked him again. "That was for what you did to my family." You raised your hand again, but he caught it. "Ah ah ah sweetheart." You used your other hand and smacked him. "And that was for what you did to me." You could see he was fighting with a number of emotions. "Fair enough." He said. You pulled your hand out of his grip and turned your wrath to Tommy. "Thomas Michael Shelby. How dare you." He kept his face blank. "(Y/N), calm down." You shook your head. "You have some serious explaining to do." You looked back at Alfie. "Both of you." "Right, Well Alfie here wants to apologize to Arthur for what he did to you." Arthur was beyond uncomfortable right now. "Arthur, I want to formally say how sorry I am for what I did to you." Arthur gave you a look. "I accept your apology." Alfie smiled. "Good! Now give me a hug." Arthur gave you a pleading look. "No." "Come on." "No!" "Arthur, give him a hug." You could hear John chuckling behind you; you turned and hit him. He gave you a look, which you returned, before turning around and seeing Alfie and Arthur hugging. "Right. Now, (Y/N)." You froze. "Right. (Y/N), love..." He looked you in the eyes and you crossed your arms. "I was a right prick treating you as I did. You deserve better and I am sorry." You could see he meant it and you sighed. "I forgive you." You grumbled and gave Tommy a glare. "Now give me a hug, love." "Touch me and I will feed you your own balls." He chuckled and held his hands up. "Good. Now let's talk business." Tommy said as he walked around his desk and sat down.

You were the first one to leave the office after the discussions. You could hear your brothers and Alfie calling your name but you kept walking. You grabbed your coat and struggled to get it on as you walked outside; you were upset that your brother hadn't warned you about Alfie being there. But you were even more upset that every time you looked at Alfie, you just felt the pain he had caused. Someone grabbed your shoulder and turned your around. You looked up and was greeted by Alfie. "What." "Darling, please." "No! You don't get to call me that." "Listen to me, please." You frowned but kept your mouth closed. "What I did to your brothers was just business. But I never meant to hurt you." He brushed a piece of hair away from your face. "But you did, Alfie." You said softly and you hated how weak you sounded. "I know. And I will spend the rest of my life making up for it. Please." You sighed and placed your hand on your forehead, hoping it would help the minor headache you had at this point. "You get one more chance." He smiled and kissed your cheek. "I mean it! One chance!" "I believe me darling, that's all I need." He whispered before kissing your cheek again. You turned away and walked to your car.
