《Lombardi - Finn Shelby》I'm A Shelby
Advertisement
I got out of Arthur's car steadily following Linda into the house. Apparently something happened in Artillery Square.
I grimaced intensely as Arthur shook out snow from the small blue glass. Once I caught Finn doing it and I ran away for a day. I hate it, it ruins you. I tried to get Finn to stop, it worked for a while but I'm not sure if he still does it. He knows how I feel about it.
He sniffed it up and I looked away, I felt I could throw up at any minute. I wanted to just steal Finn's drink but Eva told me if I drank whilst pregnant my baby will be ugly. I didn't really care but she seemed really passionate in it as she made up the lie.
She's been a real pain in the arse, ever since I told her I was pregnant she hasn't left me alone. She literally only became a midwife because she wanted to deliver my baby. Great.
"You're a fucking idiot Tom." Arthur said still sniffing. I went to grab Finn's drink but he stopped me. I desperately needed it. He took my hand and intertwined our hands together.
He took the arm that was beside me and put it around my waist rubbing my barely there stomach reminding me I was pregnant. Yes thank you I totally forgot.
"Look I didn't get Luca, but I got three, Alright. That's it, that's what happened." Tommy announces as Charlie came in. Tommy picked him up and I wanted to cry again.
I felt my heart swell by the cuteness, the tears finally fell out and I squeezed Finn's hand.
"Well I'll drink to you Tommy, you mad bastard." Charlie said and all the guys laughed. Finn finished his drink and Polly put her's down.
I watched them all leave, me and Finn leaving after them.

It was finally time for the fight and I stayed around with Polly and the girls. We walked down the stairs in our fancy attire showing off. I defiantly went over board with my dress.
We strutted past the men who were staring and we went to sit down. I instantly felt bored so I left to the lavatory. Soon after the girls one by one followed.
"So what did Tommy say when you told him?" Polly asked.
"He said I'd get a weekly allowance." she responded and I rolled my eyes.
"Good for you, I get nothing." I told her putting my hand on my tummy.
"That's because all you do is sleep Rose." Lizzie said copying my rolling eye actions.
"Aye that ain't true." I said dramatically. It was true.
"Of coarse as company treasurer." Polly said walking out of the stall. "I shall be questioning that expense." Polly finished.
"He said something like 'we've had enough death, let's have some life'." she said placing a cigarette in her mouth.
"Oh lovely." I mumbled leaning against the wall.
"Pol," Ada said coming in. "This fight is fixed, isn't it? Poor gypsy boy is getting battered out the. Right you said you had some news?" She questioned sitting on the counter.
"Lizzie has some news." Polly said and Lizzie turned around quickly.
"Oh Ada do you like my bump?" I asked her trying to make it show.
"Lovely Rose." she replied and I smiled gratefully.
"Polly," Lizzie said putting her cigarette out.
"Well tell her. Now! Whilst the men are screaming for blood." she passed Ada the bottle of alcohol telling her she would need it.

"I'm up the duff." Lizzie said whilst Ada took a swig. "And it's Tommy's." That's when Ada looked mortified.
"How far long are you?" Ada asked passing the bottle back.
"If I were going to London I'd be in Coventry."
"Are you carrying on past Coventry?"
"All the way to fucking Piccadilly Circus." she returned to Ada's question.
"You found whether they're having a boy or girl Pol?"
"No." Pol responded.
"Well go on then." Ada said getting excited.
"Oh, I don't want to know Pol, I'll wait until I'm dying in pain at birth." I said watching Polly.
"Okay Rose but if it's a girl you better name her after me," Polly instructed and I rolled my eyes.
"It's a girl." Polly said touching Lizzie's breast. "Call her Ruby." Poly said looking at Lizzie's stomach mesmerised by the life inside her. "Ruby Shelby." she repeated.
"Sounds lovely." I said to Lizzie.
"She'll be a star on a Hollywood movie." Ada soon came over and hugged Lizzie.
"Do you have any names Rose?" Lizzie asked looking over to me.
"Yes actually for a girl: Elizabeth or Valerie and for a boy: John or Easton" I told them crying as I said the names.
Soon the door burst open and Holy Linda came storming through.
"Hello Linda, welcome to the extraordinary general meeting of the Shelby ladies club." Polly grinned and we all laughed.
"Is there spit on my back?" Linda asked ignoring Polly turning around to get a good angle in the mirror of her back. "There are men out there spitting. It's fucking disgusting." Linda swore.
"Linda swearing is a sin." I told her trying not to laugh.
"Fuck off." she replied.
"No there is no spit on your back." Polly told her. "Don't let us stop you doing what you came in to do." Polly said and I saw that Linda was taking snow.
"What?" Linda asked irritated. "It's helping me get through the fucking nightmare of being stuck in this city." she added.
"Well since you're here and you're almost family, Lizzie's got some news." Polly told her.
"I'm pregnant." Lizzie straight up told her.
"Oh another baby aye? And who's the father, have you managed to narrow it down?" Linda rudely said before snorting all the cocaine. What a bitch.
"Yes it's Tommy's." Lizzie sneered back.
"Congratulations. You've won the raffle at last." Linda congratulated.
"Yeah, she's a real Shelby now Linda. Just like you. Right ladies, lets rejoin our gentlemen." Polly ordered us.
"And remember Linda. If they spit, just spit back." Polly said leaving and I chuckled with Ada.
"Let's go." I said following her holding her hand.
I walked back with the girls to our seats.
"Come on Bonnie, prove your dad has a fucking wig on!" I cheered on. I would actually be sad though if he cuts his hair. I'm starting to like taking the piss.
I carried on watching the fight trying not to get too grossed out by all the blood. I watched Bonnie win and all the men behind me screamed.
Lizzie came over suddenly telling us that Arthur was dead. Wait! Shit! Where's Finn? I stood up abruptly searching around for Finn but I couldn't see him. I just turned back to Linda to comfort her.
Tommy's gun soon rang out and announced that Arthur was dead.
I couldn't believe it. Why? Why Arthur?

I went home with Finn but he was acting kinda different.
"What's wrong. I know you're upset Arthur is gone, but there's something else." I told him stopping us in front of our door.
"I blinded a man Rose," Finn told me and I stared at him shocked. "I did it for Arthur." I brought Finn into a big hug and rubbed the back of his head soothingly.
"It's okay Finn." I told him.
I broke from him and started to search his coat.
"Rose What are you doing?" He asked me and I finally found it. Snow.
"What did I tell you about this shit!" I snapped throwing away.
"What the fuck Rose that cost money."
"Does it look like I give a shit! Come on let's go to bed. Actually you can sleep on the couch, I ain't having you around me." I snapped at him.
I ain't having shit like that in my bloody house.

Today was Arthur's funeral. Me and Finn was still arguing but I put that aside.
I watched numbly as the carriage went by holding Arthur's body. I placed roses inside it and walked back next to Finn, I wanted desperately to hug him but I couldn't.
We were in the field John was burned at and that's where Arthur's was as well.
I watched in confusion as the fire burnt, I could see me great aunt walk over with a white cloth on a stick in surrender. Why was she here?
The funeral finished and Finn casually walked over.
"What do you want?" I asked crossing my arms.
"To apologise. I should of taken your feelings into consideration." he told me and I stared in shock.
"Finn do you even know what any of that meant?" I asked him with a hand on my chest.
—
I stood behind Tommy and Polly waiting for Luca. Finn was next to me and I could fell the pressure build up my back.
I was there because Tommy told me to. Probably because my dad was going to be there.
They walked through holding guns and we stood bravely. I watched as my parents stutter through and I temporarily faltered.
"Look at them." Luca said in Italian. They all laughed and I gave a sarcastic laugh as well.
"All that's left of the Peaky fucking Blinders." Luca laughed again.
"So funny." I replied putting my hand over my mouth to conceal the fake laugh.
"Roseline, why don't you come over with us away from the bastard you call your baby's father." my father said stepping forward.
"Fuck you." I responded going to lunge at them but Finn pulled me to stop me to stay. I saw my mother staring at us both and I looked away in disgust.
Luca clicked his finger and my father opened a bag taking paper out of it.
"Cover up every enterprise in your possession. Bars, restaurants, warehouses." he listed. "Every fucking thing that you've gathered all these years to gather together." he added. "You will sign them all over to my family, including Roseline if she chooses not to become a Shelby. I'm sure we have some suitors." he said making me scoff.
I saw Finn falter so I wrapped my arm around him. I have been with Finn for almost 3 years now. I am never going to give him up for some suitor, I love him too much.
"I would have buried you all, but my mother she, uh, she knows you. She said, it'll be worse for you if I let you live and take away everything you have. Search them." Luca instructed his guards.
He ripped Polly's blouse and one came over to search me. He patted me in private places so I slapped him across the face.
"Piss off." I shoved him away. I saw Finn give him a threatening look so I told him I was okay.
"Luca it seems you have a pervert on your side." I told him.
"Shoot him." Luca ordered in Italian and the guy went down making me flinch harshly.
"So..." Luca said holding up a pen. "Sign. Every fucking one of them," he said chucking the pen. "Sign then on your knees, on the floor." He said pushing the paper off the desk as well.
He then proceeded to throw the table on to its side. Wow! Explosive much.
"Get on your fucking knees and sign." he spat at Tommy. I looked away to my parents who were smiling at me, I gave them my special death stare that made them turn away. Apparently to Karl my stare is scary, bless.
"A friend of mine once said..." Tommy started going down to his knees. "Big fucks small, so I had to find someone bigger than you. Now you may know there are two families in Brooklyn, who want to take over our monopoly on the import of liquor into New York." Tommy said and Polly carried on.
"We also contacted a business man in Chicago, he's also interested in moving into the liquor business in New York." Polly ended.
"Mostly everyone in your family who you brought to New York is dead Mr Changretta." Tommy told him and then he told him that his guards weren't loyal:
"And you Matteo?" Luca asked and Matteo just looked down. "But not you Gabriele, Helen. Right?"
Luca asked.
"We're family so yes. Rose you're on our side not theirs." My mother said with pleading eyes but I shook my head at her.
I saw that Tommy and Luca started to fight. Finn made sure I was stood behind him.
Suddenly someone came through the door and I saw... Arthur? I heard Finn gasp in surprise and he stared at me gobsmacked.
I watched speechlessly as Arthur shot Luca. I looked away as he dropped. No I ain't gonna hurl.
"Leave, all of you," Arthur told them but my parents stayed put.
"Rose are you coming, we can get you away. Away from these Peaky bastards." My father spat.
"Sorry Gabriele but I'm a fucking Shelby, her out of my sight." I sneered at them.
They left glumly and I smiled with pride.
I'm a fucking Shelby.
—
I sat down with Finn behind me stood up, he passed Arthur a drink and kissed my head.
"Oi, listen up. Before we go eat, I'd like to say a few words, the last time we were all here it ended badly," Tommy said and Arthur replied to him
"And now, we're in a happier place. That's it I'd just like to raise a toast." Tommy explained. I lifted my water but Arthur stopped us all.
"Now as you know, Arthur Shelby is dead, 'cause of that, Tommy's offered me a way out." Arthur said walking around. "A new identity, start a while new like for myself, I've thought about it... I ain't fucking going no where." Arthur told us and we all laughed and he continued.
We all toasted to peace and I sipped my water. God I want alcohol.
Let's hope when the baby's born we will live in peace.
