"Come on then" You hurried your friend, a fellow midwife as you rode on your bikes. "Otherwise we will be late."

"I am going as fast as I can Y/N" She huffs as she pedals as fast as she could, getting to the same point as you.

"We have so much work to do before we can get to the party at the Garrison tonight" You bite down on your lip; wanting to see your love interest - Thomas Shelby.

"As do I, I want to see Arthur" She smiles in awe and you smirk to her; making her blush even more than she was.

"Well, then we better get on with it" You giggle and ride on to the next patient.

As you both arrive at the next patient, you knock at the door - sorting out your hat as you wait at the door for it to open. The piece of paper in your pocket to tell you the name of your patients, was needed all the time as you went from one patient to another - the next patient named Molly Brown.

"Molly!" You knocked on the door again, due to a moment of nobody answering.

"Hello?" Your friend called as she opened up the mail box to peer inside. "Should we go?"

"No, she hasn't been seen in ages." You frown, very concerned on her wellbeing. "She has missed her appointments for months, she needs to be seen."

"But if she is not going to answer then-" she begins but is cut off by the door slowly opening; peering a frightened young women in the crack of the door.

"Molly?" You ask and she opens the door more; hiding behind it as she let you both inside the house. Walking in, the house was so cold and completely dull. Shivering, you walked into the living room and she shortly came in; sitting down on the sofa.

"Can I get you a cup of tea?" The husband, Frank, asked as he walked into the room; making her jump slightly in fear.

"No, we are fine thank you" You answered and looked to the husband, frowning at him as you saw the reaction from Molly seeing him.

"What are you doing here?" He asks and you frown at him, thinking how idiotic he was being. Your friend however saved you from running your mouth in regret by talking to with him and explaining why you were in fact there.

"For a check up on your baby" She smiled and the husband pulled Molly into his side. "She has not been to the clinic for weeks and we were beginning to get concerned."

"Well, she is fight ain't she" He shakes his head, walking to the door to leave the living room. "I will be back in a few hours, don't be here too long."

With that, he slammed the front door as he left and making Molly cry out in fear as she watched him walk away and get into a car. She got very worked up, so you helped her to sit down on the chair in the room, your friend getting some water for her.

You both saw the bruises on her arms, collar bones and wrists. It made you very concerned.

"Molly, does he-" You begin to say but are cut off by your friend coming in and giving her a drink.

"Thank you" She sips on the drink and looks up to you both, a small bruise on her cheek as she trembles in fear.

You end up staying with her for hours, talking with her and gaining her trust as you check the baby that was born and the baby inside of her - of course the mother as well. All was well, apart from the well-being of the mother and the fear she went through.

"Would you like a cup of tea?" She asks you both, but you decline again - kindly of course.

"No thank you Molly, but would you like us to make you something to eat?" You kindly smile, making her smile back to you.

"I think he will be back soon, so I probably -" She begins but the sound of the door swing open makes you all jump back.

As you looked to see her husband come in, fury was on his face and it made your whole body tense up. Molly stood up and started to tremble again in fear.

"Why are you still here?" He yells and your friend jumps.

"Sir, we are not here to be shouted at" Your friend answers and you put a hand on Mollys shoulders to calm her down.

"Maybe you should leave!" He yells even more and you can not argue - it was his property. You both grabbed you things and walked out the house; guilt coursing through your veins.

As you both were pushed outside, you go to your bikes and put your things in the basket. You looked up and heard the sound of yells coming from back in the house.

"Arthur!" You heard your friend say; not knowing the three of the boys were walking towards you both. As you heard the sounds of Mollys screams, you turned back around and ran into the house. Your friend called your name and looked to Shelby's who were confused.

"Y/N!?" She yells and you ignore her; breaking into the house. Going into the front room you see Frank with a match, about to strike it against her skin.

"Help me!" She cried out and was thrown to the side; making her stumble slightly. Frank came closer to you and shoved you to the wall, placing the match near your cheek.

"Get off of me!" You yell and tries to shove him back, but he was too strong for you.

Before he could hurt you in anyway, he was thrown to the ground. Looking up, you saw Tommy come in - Arthur and John behind him.

"We have to help her!" You cried to Tommy as he pulled you back and out of the house.

"The police are heat and been called" Tommy whispers in your ear and you see them going into the house. "They will help her."

"Tommy he hurts her!" You cry out, reminding you of the face of fear she pulled when she was in the arms of the monster.

"Sweetheart, come here." He says as he puts his hands on your shoulders, but you still move around and shake your head in anger. "Y/N, look at me"

He puts his hands on your cheek, making you stare at him as the tears fall down your cheek once more. You calm down slightly as he looks to you, with such a caring and gentle face.

"You are okay sweetheart, he won't hurt her no longer" He softly speaks and puts your head on his chest; your arms going around his chest as you hug him tightly. "And he will never lay a hand on you, for as long as I live. He is going straight to jail."

"But she is never going to forget that" You hiccup and he kisses the top of your head.

"But you have helped her from ending it." He whispers wisely. "Isn't that the better thing?"

"You are a very wise man Tommy" You sniffle a laugh as you look up to him. "What I did to deserve a man like you."

"You, were you gorgeous." He winks and it makes you blush. He never saw the redness of your cheek, due to his lips being pressed against yours gently.

You ran your hands through his hair and kissed him back gently. Realising how lucky you were to have a man like Tommy - as you knew everyone was not as lucky, as you were.
