Cruel To Be Kind - Peaky Blinders Fanfiction

Part 25 - Safer Not To Know

Another chapter for you all. I do hope you enjoy this chapter.

I'm not sure if you know that I've edited all the other chapters. I was trying to get them all edited before continuing with the story and seeing as that's done I finally wrote this chapter.

There are new scenes added to previous chapters. In the third chapter, there is a scene between Arthur and Elsie that I wanted to write but forgot the first time and managed to edit it into the second version. Please re-read it if you wish.

There is also a scene between Ada and Elsie in chapter fourteen - I do recommend that you read that one.

Most of the changes I have made were done for plot reasons so I do recommend you take another look at the story.

I managed to squeeze this chapter out - I have only just finished it and I feel like the last section is a bit naff.

I hope I still have readers and I hope you all enjoy this chapter. It's not much, but it's leading up to the big plot involving Graves and this chapter has certainly got some important information regarding Tommy and Elsie.

I hope you all enjoy it and I am once again sorry.

I'm not going to take up any more of your time, but I am going to say that I can't promise to be regular on updates as I don't want to make any promises I can't keep.

Thank you for your time xx Comet96 xx

"Are you sure it's okay for us to leave?" I asked Tommy as he walked around our new bedroom, packing his clothes into his suitcase. This trip to London wasn't unexpected, but it was surprising considering Arthur's state.

It had been four days since Arthur had tried to take his life, and Tommy still wanted us to travel down to London. Not only was I tired from working all day, but I wasn't happy about getting on the Friday evening train to London where my Grandmother would be waiting to disapprove of my marriage to Tommy.

"Aye, Arthur will be fine," Tommy replied, tucking a gun under one of his shirts as he glanced up at me. I was eyeing his gun but let my eyes lock with his. I knew he'd be taking a gun with him, he always had one strapped under his jacket, but why did he need another one? What was he planning on doing in London?

"Is it safe for us to be going?" I asked, nodding to his gun in his suitcase. If it was only going to bring violence to us then shouldn't we stay here?
