Nights with Thomas Shelby:IMAGINES

Night three : The Monistary (Part 1)

Gathering things for the nuns breakfast at the Burmingham children's monistary, you were quite and to your self most of the time and did as you were told like a good girl

You began taking the tray to the main room and you heard heels and boots making there way across the cobble stone floors. You waited a few mins before continuing . You got closer to the doors and tried peaking through the crack but all you heard was from sister Avery

" we don't smoke In here"

And a deep mans voice replied

" well I fookin do"

Sister Avery replied

" nor do we use such language"

A woman replied

"We don't find fault in the inocent yet you do , you fookin do"

You didn't want to interrupt it sounded very serious you didn't want to impose but as you moved you hit the door with the tray and froze in fear. Sister Avery called you in and you came in with the tray very nervous and shaking. You sat the tray in between the man and woman and the lady spoke up saying

" hello love , your a pretty one ,isn't she Thomas"

You slowly turned to him and saw him already staring at you and he began looking at you up and down studying your every move. You didn't say a world but kept your head down to the floor. You saw him move his head and looking behind you. He placed his hand on your back and slowly moved his hand down to your ass and cupped his hand around it and began to slightly squeeze it.

You jumped in shock and a single tear went down your face and he said to you

" it's alright love, I'm not gonna hurt you"

Sister Avery waved you to go away and before you could turn around to leave Thomas grabbed your arm and said

" stay love, your presence soothes me"

He got up from his chair and pulled it out for you to sit down. You looked at sister Avery and she nodded her head at you. You pulled your dress down around you as you sat down. Thomas grabbed another chair and before he say down he rubbed your face with his hand and sat beside you.

He continued with saying

" now I hear that you and all of your sisters have been giving the children here a hard time and the last time I checked the Shelby company provided funding for this place."

Sister Avery shook her head and glanced at you with anger and replied

" Mr. Shelby I'm not quite sure what you speak of, this has been a safe home for children for more than 30 years and furthermore"

Thomas cut her off saying

" so the young girl that hung her self out of fear of your temper is safe ?"

Thomas and poly both turned and looked at you and Poly spoke to you saying

" love it's true is it not ? The girl who hung herself was it because of these sisters?"

You were afraid to answer out of the fear that Thomas spoke of about sister Avery. Thomas turned to you and said

" no need to be afraid love, you can answer , you'll be leaving with us today"

Avery jumped up and said

" Mr Shelby ! You are making false accusations and I will not stand for them! And she will not be going anywhere !"

Thomas got up from the table and took her glasses from her face and crushed them on the table with his fist. You jumped out of fear and grabbed the chair tightly as a single tear streamed down your face. Thomas spoke up saying
