"Russian Roulette" 

Marjorie had to chuckle as she took the gun. "That's kinda cliche, don't you think?" Ezra only raised his shoulders in a shrug. "You can't be serious!" John threw in the room in disbelief. Thomas slowly made his way out of his office, the comotion outside catching his attention, just to see Marjorie and a man he didn't know sitting across from each other.

His eyebrows furrowed as he watched Marjorie load a single bullet in the cylinder. "What the fuck is going on here." his voice boomed through the room, just to make Marjorie smile a bit. "Ignore him, he's just the boss here." she chuckled. Thomas stood behind the chair she sat on, his hands grasping her shoulders as he bent down to whisper into her ear. "Come with me for a second." he demanded, she was quick to sigh and nod her head. "One second, asshole." Ezra was quick to grunt in response.

Marjorie followed Thomas in his office. "Don't chicken out, Marj." she laughed, holding her middle finger out for him. "In your dreams." "Close the door." he demanded. She closed the door and stood in the room awkwardly. "So?" she tried, the silence making this situation even weirder. 

Suddenly he slammed his hand on the table, startling Marjorie "Jesus!" She yelled, putting a hand on her chest, simply to calm her pulse. "What the fuck is wrong with you?" Marjorie cursed, not expecting Tom to slap his fucking hand on the table "What's wrong with me? I'm not the one playing fucking russian roulette in someone elses betting shop." Tom spoke, every word laced with venom. He was angry and by the seems of it, very very angry.

"What the fuck do you think you're doing? You can't be serious with playing russian roulette out there." Thomas locked his gaze with her, his eyes betrayed him. A small smile made its way on her face as she watched the distressed man. He worried about her, it was clear as day. "Look at that, are you maybe worried about me?" he sighed and shook his head. Of course he would deny it, who would Thomas Shelby be otherwise. "For fucks sake." he sat down and pointed for her to take the chair across from him.

"You promised to find my son, you can't do that if you're dead. Now, can you?" she had to let a small laugh out, he really tried to cover his desperate look "Of course it's only about finding your son." she raised her eyebrows, obviously it wasn't only about his son "Nothing else?" he only raised an eyebrow at her. He wasn't up to any more teasing or stupid words that could leave her mouth. "If i have to have someone wipe your brains, i'll kill you." he threatened and she nodded. "Rodger that." she smiled before getting up and finishing what she started.

"Come on, ladies first." Marjorie spoke with a smile on her face, she was ready fuck this bitch up. Ezra gave her a nasty look as he shook his head, he was refusing. "I'm not going first." she sighed and ripped the gun from his grip. "Hun, don't" Polly tried to take the gun from Marjories grasp but she shook her head at the kind woman. "It's alright, Polly."

 "You know, that's exactly what angers me so much." She placed the gun on her temple and pulled the trigger, nothing. The people around her sighed in relief as the corners of her mouth raised in a small smile.

She than pulled the hammer back and placed the gun to her temple once again. "All of you are such cowards." she pulled the trigger again, nothing. She once again cocked the hammer back. "How dare you challenge me to such a game" she placed the gun under her chin. Thomas almost ripped the gun from her hand before she pulled the trigger once again. "To a game you're going to lose." She almost yelled as she placed the gun on his forhead and pulled the trigger, a bullet speeding through his head. 

"Nothing but an insult, really." Marjorie got up and pushed the gun into Tommys chest. "You weren't going to wipe my brains off the floor either way." She patted his shoulder with a sinster smile on her lips.

"I don't lose, ever."
