Another day passes and you and Thomas go to visit May to see how the Filly is doing. She brings you to the Stables where Micky works to visit the horse. You all enter the stables

"Mick, this is Y/n L/n and Thomas Shelby. He's come to check up on there filly." May informs

"Yes. I've heard of them." He mumbles looking at you both as the horse is standing beside him

"Micky is the best horseman in England." May informs once again

"He likes to waste money, I know that. According to the reports you're spending two pound a month of worming powder." You state

"You want a horse with worms?" Micky argues

"Horses get worms from the water trough. If you put a goldfish in, they eat the worm eggs." You fireback

"That'll be a Gypsy thing, is it?" He questions

"No, it's an accounting thing. Goldfish cost a penny each." You correct

"Or you can win them at the fair. If you want, I'll dispense with the vet altogether. Excuse me." He grumbles leaving the stables as you look towards the horse

"You ever consider a career in diplomacy?" May teases as you smile slightly. Thomas walks of the horse, petting her.

"Hello, hello. How are you, eh?" He whispers to the horse

"Goldfish? Seriously?" She questions looking towards you

"Yep. You people have a lot to learn." You confirm as you pet the horse as she leans into your touch.

After checking in the filly, seeing she's in good health. You, May and Thomas leave the stables and start walking to the front of the house to get to Thomas's car. May walks in front of you both. Stopping you both in your tracks.

"They asked me if I wanted a fire in the guest bedroom. I said no, just one fire tonight." She hums as she looks towards you with a smile

"Bold and fearless, eh?" You mutter

"Yes. Though I'm not really fearless." She chuckles as you nod. Thomas glares at May then towards you but doesn't say anything as you get back indoors

"Drink?" You offer the both

"Yes." They both accept in union while eyeing each other

"Madam, there is a telephone call." A maid informs entering the room

"I'll take it in the drawing room." She waves off as you pass the both there drink as long with your own

"It's for Ms. L/n." She adds on as you look up with furrowed brows. The maid leads you to the phone. As the call ended you place the phone gently down as anger pulses through your veins. You storm out the room and grab your coat.

"Where are you going?" Thomas questions

"I need the key. You stay here. I'll be back." You order as you hold out your hand for the keys

"We're partners. Both in business and in relationship so we do this together." He argues

"No. Give me the fucking keys." You demand more urgently this time. Thomas looks at your form for a moment, clearly see visible anger and that'll be useless to argue with you.
