    Summary

    Love doesn’t always arrive loudly. Sometimes, it finds you like wildflowers—delicate, persistent, and blooming quietly in the rain.

    Thomas Shelby wasn't sure how it happened—May Carlton's younger sister ended up calming the storm that he was.

    It was a soft bud of attraction, still green and little, but with a little rain, every bud blooms.

    Summary

    After five years of living in Birmingham, Roseline now lives the life that many women dream of. Her husband is a successful businessman, and they reside in a stunning mansion filled with numerous hallways and corridors that seem to stretch on endlessly. The house is filled with both used and unused rooms. Money is never a concern for her; she spends it freely without a second thought. Everything she wears now is fashionable and beautiful, and her jewelry adorns her like a second skin.

    Her beauty is the envy and awe of many, with the most charming smile anyone could see. Talented in her own right at music and art, with a soft-spoken presence. Even started her own business, unrelated to her husband’s.

    She has everything.

    So what if she had to quit her Job because her husband told her?

    She still has everything anyone could possibly want, and all Rose has to do is be a good wife.

    It’s perfect.

    Except... her husband is Thomas Shelby, and she swore to be with him till death do them part.

    Isn’t that so beautiful?

    (This fic can be read separately from the first one.)

    Summary

    "We're not who we used to be
    We're not who we used to be
    We're just two ghosts standing in the place of you and me
    Trying to remember how it feels to have a heartbeat"

    8 years ago Sophie Thorne was the light of Thomas Shelby's life. After a horrible accident, Sophie decided that she was going to follow her dreams of becoming a nurse and moved to London where she completed her training. When the war broke out she immediately signed up to help with the war effort and was sent to France where she stayed until the end. However, just like everyone else that went away when she returned she was a ghost of her former self and decided that she was no longer suitable to provide care to her patients, forcing herself to leave her career and return home to Small Heath where everyone she left behind all those years ago still resided.

    Summary

    In the years since Rose Abottsford left Small Heath, her life had taken several turns she could have never foreseen, all of which led to her return to her hometown. She never imagined she'd find her childhood friends again, or get involved in their business matters. More than anything, she never expected to see the boy she fell in love with before she left, nor did she expect her heart to still race every time he looked her way.

    Summary

    This is literally just a bunch of what ifs because I love my oc Darcy my sweet gay cross dressing medic with to big a heart that I love to torment and also because I can’t pick between any of the Shelby boys and Alfie for him so I said fuck it. This is mostly for my own personal use but if you like them cool.

    If I get anymore ideas I’ll update this series but as of now it’s complete

    One night, the two cross paths when Tommy shoots the white horse he purchased from Johnny Dogs.
