“Ahh….get it fuckin done…we’ll be late for lunch” Ronnie angrily motioned him to be quick. “I’ll go get 'im, Ron…might take a while” Teddy shouted back at them, before entering the building. You sighed, looking out the window as Teddy called out for Leslie outside the building. “Lazy fucker! Is he not up yet?” Ronnie grunted irritatingly. You smiled, “The perfect way to spend my lunch break for sure” getting into the backseat, joining Ronnie. “Join us Y/N!…” Ronnie suddenly cut off Teddy, “…we’ll pick up Leslie then head for lunch, that sound alright?” “Where are you lovely people heading off to?” you asked, with your hands behind your back. Kray, who sat on the back, nodding in acknowledgement. “Afternoon Ronnie!” You certainly didn’t forget to greet Mr. Secondly, it’s actually my lunch break ” you replied with a tone that hinted sass, waving at Teddy who just stopped the car, when he found you walking. With his rather unconventional social life, you liked to wonder the what if’s. As much as you found Reggie’s smooth advances enjoyable, Ronnie was the one who secretly became your unattainable fantasy. Your friendship with the Krays never was romantic nor sexual. Unlike some, you firmly believed each brother possessed a charm which was simply irresistible and unique. Every week, nights like these at Esmeralda’s Barn was an essential. Your bubbly personality and appreciation for sarcastic humor won the hearts of The Kray twins and most of The Firm, and was invited as great company for quite some time. Relieved, you watched as Reggie joined in along with Leslie and Albert. “That’s more like it…Get more fuckin drinks over here” roaring into laughter, Ronnie was in high spirits calling out the waiters. “ Yes…couldn’t agree more” you managed to reply, finding it difficult to read his mind. You suddenly stopped giggling, lost in his eyes with confusion. “Yeah, cause good company is not easy to find, don’t you agree Y/N?” Ronnie spoke out of the sudden, looking at you with intense eyes. “Which won’t be a problem” you replied with a giggle, pinching his cheek before sitting down. “Only if you promised to stay the whole night” he chirped, walking over to pull up a chair for you. “Mind if I join ya lads?” You asked in a mockingly polite tone, with fluttering eyelashes. Clouds of smoke escaped his lips, misting his glasses, yet the alluring shade of red that approached the table helped him focus. Raising his glass in return, he maintained his gaze, smoking his cigar. With confidence gained from another sip, you finally raised your glass to Ronnie Kray, who sat with Teddy a few tables away. His eyes that you didn’t mind watching you. “Oh Reg…” you pouted in protest, still aware of the pair of eyes that haven’t left your sight since you got up. “That’s not the company I had in mind love” he said softly, rubbing his thumb on your hand. “I don’t need a man, I have the lot of you to keep me in good company” you continued, tapping him on the chest. “Right…of course” you played along, winking at the Gangster Prince of East End. “Hey! I am a Club Owner, alrigh?” he reminded you with a confident smile. “Crime? Oh ho! You’re the one to talk Reg” you replied in tease, biting your shiny red lower lip, taking in a sip. You smiled, turning to accept a glass of brandy from Reggie Kray as you swayed. “Such a crime…to see you alone tonight without a lucky lad by ya side” But you also took great satisfaction when there was an audience to witness it, even if it was an audience of one, but only if the ‘one’ meant him. Being the brave one to get up from the table, being the one to move to the dance floor with no hesitation, being the one to dance and wait for no one’s permission. The thin material felt like second skin, for you found it quite easy to freely move, to and explore, and to’ be lost’ in the music. The red dress stuck on to your body like a magnet, as you swayed your hips in rhythm to the slow jazz. All Rights Reserved.Author’s Note: I’m a sinner once again to be inspired at work.
