Sofia // Peaky Blinders

62

Sofia got out of the car and raised an eyebrow as she watched a woman shout.

"We will not stand by and let this scum have free rein in our city ! Fascism must not be allowed to voice its creed of hatred". She shouted.

Sofia grabbed into Arthur's hand as they pushed there way through the crowd.

They made there way up to where Barney was going to be.

"Right Barney, this is Joe, he will be here with you in case anything goes wrong okay. He's your personal bodyguard okay". She said softly to Barney.

She turned to Joe and smiled at him. She gently straightened out his tie and smiled. "Once this is over, we will go back to America and you can do whatever you like okay". She said softly.

Joe smiled and nodded his head.

She moved away from him and nodded at Arthur.

She watched as Barney snorted a white powder. She turned her head and caught eyes with Tony.

She stuck her tongue out and winked at him.

"Now you know what you're doing don't yah?" Arthur asked.

"Tommy checks his pocket watch, I count ten, then I blow the other fellas head off". Barney answered.

"Yeah". Arthur said smiling.

Arthur slipped something into the top of Barney's jacket and stood up.

"See you later Arthur". He said.

"Oh soldier, you do that, you run like fuck. Don't stop". Arthur muttered.

Sofia looked at Joe. "Get him out of here safe and head back somewhere safe and remote okay". She said as she hugged him.

They all rushed off, down to the stage.

Sofia frowned when a door opened beside her. "Ahhh Sofia, mind joining me for a second". Mosley asked.

She looked at Arthur and nodded for him to go off.

She entered his room, her two hands clasped.

"You know, I don't really like women in trousers, but you my dear you pull it off wonderfully". He said, as he fixed his buttons on his shirt.

Sofia shrugged off her coat and placed it over a chair, her arms crossed. "You clearly didn't want to talk to me about my fashion choices Oswald, why am I really here?" She asked.

He looked up in the mirror, his eyes catching hers.

"That's funny, because I was going to ask the same question to you. Why are you here Sofia? Last time I checked you hated politics and only involved yourself into it so you could get dirty money". He said.

She raised her eyebrow. "Isn't that what politics is about? Dirty money? I'm here for protection, I'm here with the Shelby's". She said.

He nodded his head and turned to look at her. "And what are your dealings with the Shelby's?" He asked.

She rolled her eyes. "You already know. If they need any help, I'm here to help them. They're the ones who helped kill my husband". She answered.

"Ahh yes, Luca. Quite a shame actually, I did rather like the chap, it's a shame he died". He said.

Sofia leaned on a table, her arms still crossed.

"That's funny, because he didn't think very highly of you". She muttered.

He gave her a stern look and turned his head as the door opened.

"Full?" He asked.

Sofia's eyes locked with Jimmy McCavern as he walked in.

"To the fucking brim". He answered.

"Trouble?" Mosley asked.

"So far, a few communists. Bullers helped our boys clean them away". McCavern answered.

"Well, a few hecklers are a good thing. We can illustrate how we deal with opposition". Mosley muttered.

"There's a rumour that a group of Jews are coming from Digbeth, but there are no sign of them yet". McCavern said.

"Well let them come". Mosley said.

Sofia's head snapped up at the mention of the Peaky Blinders. She grew wary as McCavern walked to the door. She had no idea if he was on there side or Mosley's.

"Mr McCavern?" He asked.

His hand shot up in the air as he muttered. "Perish Judah".

Jimmy scoffed and opened the door.

"No joke, Mr McCavern". Mosley said.

"Perish Judah". Jimmy muttered as he left the room.

Sofia grabbed her coat and walked to the door.

"Sofia". He said.

She turned to look at Mosley. "Perish Judah". He said.

She opened the door. "Piss off". She muttered as she walked out, the door slamming shut behind her.
