Few days passed after your wet encounter with Tommy, and somehow he couldn't leave your mind. It was Friday and after work you agreed to meet up tonight at the Garrison with your sister Sarah as it was her 27th birthday. She was very happy and so were you, it had been ages since you met up with her. Sarah was your sister but always your bestfriend. She was the beauty of the family, with gorgeous auburn locks of hair, perfect body and beautiful green eyes, you could hardly compare. Sometimes you would feel a bit left out when talking to boys because all of them would have their attention on her full lips letting out flirty phrases, but nevertheless you never saw her as competition. She was the one who always made you feel beautiful in your skin. Also, you were the brains so it wasn't all so bad. You got to go to university, and because of that you have a good paying job and are privledged to provide for yourself and help her and your parents out if they need it.
You went to Sarah's apartment and she greeted you with a smile from ear to ear and a hug.
„ (Y/N)!!" she shouted in your ear as she was hugging you.
„ Happy birthday sis! Got you a little something..." you said as you gave her a little blue box containing a silver necklace that belonged to your grandma. She thanked you and put the necklace on. She looked stunning in a black dress that accentuated her every curve, her lips a deep red that made her million dollar smile come to everyone's attention, and hair perfectly made in a low bun. You looked at her and sighed. At that point it's like she read your mind and said to try on one of her beautiful burgundy dresses. You tried it on and decided to go out in it as an attempt to catch Tommy's eye, if he doesn't see your sister first. When you entered the Garrison everyone stopped what they were doing when they saw you two. You felt yourself blushing but you could see your sister thriving in the attention and strutting to the private table where the Shelby boys sat. All you could do now was follow her cause there was no stopping her.
„ Hello boys. Would any of you care to buy a drink for the birthday girl?" Sarah said fluttering her eyelashes as she sat in between John and Arthur. Arthur almost instantly signalized Grace to come bring whiskey to the table as you stood in awe at the power she had with men.
„ You can sit too if you'd like, (Y/N)? From the looks of it, this is your sister?" You heard Tommy say to you, gesturing for you to sit on the free seat beside him.
„ Yes, Tommy. This is Sarah, maybe you remember her from school, too? Even tho she wasn't there much..." You laughed a little and looked towards your sister but she was preoccupied flirting with Arthur and John to hear you were talking about her. You took out a cigarette and Tommy lighted it faster than you could even ask for a match. He had his eyes on you the whole night, pouring you a drink after drink.

„Here's to Sarah! Happy birthday!" Tommy raised the glass and cheered. Sarah bowed her head as a thanks. The night was long and you were sincerely happy as you could see your sister was too. She left the bar with Arthur and John and you were left alone with Tommy. Well, not really alone as Grace kept coming in the room to collect glasses and bottles just as an excuse to check up on Tommy.
„ Tommy, I think I should go too, it's getting late..." You said while preparing to leave.
„ Why all of a sudden? We still haven't caught up properly, I want to know more about you." Tommy said while looking you up and down like you're a meal. His gesture made you second guess your decision to leave as you looked at his full lips that you wanted to kiss since you were a kid.
„ You could walk me home?" you said in a sweet voice and compromised. He got up and as you walked out of the Garrison you could feel Grace's eyes piercing a hole in the back of your head, but you were too drunk to even care at this point. He put his coat around your shoulders as he saw you were shivering and you smiled sweetly to give thanks.
„ So, when can I see you soaking wet again, not that this edition of you is any less dashing." Tommy asked without hesitation and with a little smirk.
You laughed at his choice of question and playfully slapped him a little. He took your hand and tried to stop you from slapping him.
„ Is that how it's gonna be?" Tommy said in a playful voice looking you straight in the eyes. It made you come closer to him, your hands now around his neck. The moment seemed to last an eternity. You felt your stomach turn as you saw Grace a few meters behind Tommy.
„ Tommy!", Grace shouted, breaking your little moment there. She walked over to you as you let your arms fall to your sides from Tommy's shoulders. „ We haven't got to meet yet. I'm Grace." Grace said as she gave you her hand. „ (Y/N)." You said as you shook it feeling nervous and looking at your feet. „ Just wanted to say I got the dress for the races Tommy, red like you said." She said with a sweet smile and then looked at you to see you were wearing a similar dress to what she bought. Her face turned to a slight frown but her eyes swiftly shifted back to Tommy's.
„ Alright. You locked up?" Tommy asked while ignoring the new information she told him.
„ Yes." She replied while Tommy was looking at the floor. Tommy nodded and she took that as a goodbye as she slowly left you two and said her goodbyes.

You felt angry and embarrassed to be put into a situation like that, as you never dreamed of coming in between Tommy and Grace. You blushed once again and turned around away from Tommy.
„ I'm so sorry, I didn't want to –" you said before you were cut off by Tommy: „ Why are you apologizing? Eh?"

„ Well yes nothing happened but –" you were cut off again and it started to bother you.

„ And nothing will." Tommy said in a serious voice,turned around and left. You were only a few steps from your home and were asconfused as ever. Do you really not read moments as well as you thought? His remark made you feel even more embarrassed than before so all you could think of is running up the stairs and hiding under the bed covers. As you took off your heels you realized on your shoulder was still Tommy's coat. You frowned upon realizing because that meant you have to see him again to return it. You couldn't understand why Tommy behaved like that after a great night of laughing and drinking. As if Grace's appearance was a reality check for Tommy. All those questions roamed around in your head untill you finally fell asleep.
