The Duke

"I slept there the night you said 'I think I'm falling in love with you' igniting a great unendurable belongingness, like a match in a forest fire"

Alfie's POV

"Why do you always seem to mess up?" Ollie asked
"Fuck off alright lad? I was going to tell her when she got home" I argued
I didn't expect Carter to be sent home early
He sighed, shaking his head

"Well, you best buy some flowers or something huh" he mused, walking out of the office
Prick.

Mariana's POV

"It is in interest of the whole family" Tommy went on
"First of all, I'd like to welcome Finn's new wife, Mary to the family" he introduced
I looked at her
Sad for her and yet also... pitying her more than anything

Stuck married to a boy like him
A boy who played with my sister's feelings and then ran off and married a posh girl
One who thrills in the dangers.

Rather then one who has lived through it
And understands this world

Mariana's Outfit

"I'm very glad I dragged myself out of bed for this" Ada said
I nudged her in the arm
Finn didn't need more discouraging

He was a fuck up so far
And telling him so and dismissing his actual achievements would only drive him further into his stupid behaviour
His distrustful relationships with people

"There is another item of business" Tommy said, briefly looking at me before he looked away
"Johnny" he signalled
"Tom" he nodded, walking off

I knew that look
The look of 'I'm about to hurt you'
The look of sorry and worry

Johnny walked to the back of the pub, intriguing us all
"Come on. Come on will you?" He urged someone

A boy appeared
A tall scrawny boy
With a face of thunder and hair like Tommy and Arthur's used to be
He was a gypsy
Scruffy and young
He was just a boy
