Ada knew something was wrong with her little sister- she was skittish, hiding her eyes beneath caps and behind her hair, and most telling of all, she stopped coming to family meetings. The final straw came when the elder Shelby sister sat at the kitchen table, sipping on a cold cup of tea as Karl slept in a small bassinet by her chair. He had been a pain all night so Ada had resorted to staying up, gently rocking him with her foot.
Dawn was just starting to break when the front door opened. Ada was perfectly positioned at the kitchen table to see her little sister, who had just turned 21, walk into the house dressed in a coat that was far too big to be hers with her shoes in her hands. The grin on her face was wide and dazed- Ada knew that look well. She smiled and went back to her tea.
When Y/N finally did stumble down the stairs, 10 minutes past noon, Ada and Pol lay in wait. βGood morning princess.β She groaned in reply as she took the offered painkillers from her aunt. βHave a good night?β Ada teased.
βWas fine, just had some drinks with the girls.β Pol raised a dark eyebrow at her niece.Β
βOh really. And I suppose it was one of your βgirlsβ that gave you that bruise on your neck.β Y/Nβs eyes widened comically and her hand flew to her throat in an attempt to hide where her skin was discoloured. But after a moment, she sagged into one of the kitchen chairs, knowing that she was caught.
βYou wonβt tell Tommy will you?β
Pol patted her hand lovingly. βTommy wonβt know until youβre ready to tell him but he will find out eventually. I think youβre old enough to have a couple secrets of your own.β
βIt wonβt be a secret for long if you get pregnant.β Ada murmured under her breath. Y/Nβs head whipped around. Her eyes had that same dangerous gleam that Tommyβs got when he was planning something big.
βI actually know how to pull out Ada.β Pol choked on her tea, giving a very undignified snort that made her youngest niece beam.Β
Ada rolled her eyes with a scoff. βAccidents happen.β Y/Nβs smile grew wider, her eyes scrunching with its size.
βSpeaking of, where is your little accident?β Her chair clattered to the floor as Ada shot up and dashed to her little sister. Anticipating this, Y/N darted away at the last second. She bounced on her toes like she was contemplating some big decision and, flipped off her sister.Β
ββββββ
One of the few freedoms that Y/N was given in her adulthood was her own apartment, though until recently, she had not spent much time there, favouring the family home on Watery Lane. But whenever she was at her own place, there was the tiny little condition that her siblings and her aunt each had their own key, for emergencies as John and Arthur claimed. Yet they respected their sister enough not to make use of these keys, until today that is.
Tommy shuffled up to the front door, hat low on his head as the freezing rain pelted him. It had been a stupid idea, a walk to calm the storm in his mind as black clouds descended over Birmingham. So he found himself here, at the door of his youngest and arguably favourite sister.Β
He jammed his finger into the doorbell, distantly hearing it ring from the partially open window above him. Yet, there was no movement inside. Tommy sighed and glanced over his shoulder, it was at least another hour to walk back to the Garrison, there was no way he was going home to face Pol without at least one drink. The cold metal of his keys stung his palm as he fished them from his pocket; Y/N wouldnβt mind the intrusion, in fact sheβd probably feed him before sending him on his way.
His cheeks burned with the change in temperature as he stepped into the hallway. A heavy thump and then a loud groan of pain came from somewhere above his head. βY/N?β He called out, but received no reply.Β
Tommy didnβt even bother to hang up his coat, taking the stairs two at a time he reached the landing in no time and with no hesitation, he threw open the front door, hand on the butt of his gun, fully prepared to deal with whatever situation his little sister had been thrust into.
But maybe not this.
His sweet baby sister was kneeling on the floor, stark naked, her back facing him (thankfully) with an equally naked man laying between her legs, hands on her hips and an obviously broken couch behind them.
βTommy!β She yelped, her arms darting up to cover her chest as he instinctively spun around and faced the wall. βWhat are you doing here?β
βItβs raining. Whoβs the man?β A deep chuckle soaked into the wallpaper, its familiarity almost mocking the gangster as his mood turned even more sour than it had been only minutes before. A soft slap followed, then the manβs heavy footsteps vanished into the bedroom.
βNo one Tommy, just a boyfriend. You can turn around.β A greatly oversized menβs shirt concealed her body, the horrified expression on her face almost tugged at his heart strings, almost.
Tommy glared at her. βA boyfriend?β His words came out as more of a growl, his anger mounting. It was one thing for Y/N to have picked up a boy from the Garrison or at the market, as much as he hated the thought of anyone even looking at her, but to have hidden a boyfriend from the family? From him?Β
She fought back the urge to roll her eyes at her older brother. βYes. A boyfriend. You know, like most girls my age have.βΒ
βNot without my permission.β Her gaze hardened.
βIβm a grown woman Thomas.β
βNot when you keep secrets from me.βΒ
βNow thatβs rich coming from you.β She scoffed. Tommyβs eye twitched. βI think more than half of the things you have said to me my entire life have been you lying to keep some secret or another. Why am I not allowed to have some of my own?β Her arms crossed over her chest, unwavering in her determination.
Tommy reached for his cigarettes but thought better of it. βThat was business.β
Y/N opened her mouth to undoubtedly hit back at him with something clever that he would blame Polly for but before even a single sound had passed her lips, another voice rumbled through the small apartment, making his blood freeze.Β
βWell itβs a damn good thing this was a business meetin, wasnβt it darling?β And suddenly, in his little sisterβs living room, wearing only trousers and with a cigarette hanging from his lips, was Alfie Solomons.Β
Tommyβs head whipped over to Y/N who now had her head in her hands. βHim?β Was all he could manage around the bubbling anger building in his throat. Alfie laughed and as if to add insult to the injury, wrapped a large arm around her waist, tugging her into his side. She refused to look at her brother, fixing her eyes firmly to the floor like she used to do when caught doing something she shouldnβt.
Alfie was practically beaming, gloating. βSheβs done a very good job at keeping me secret from you. Even got me to hide in a fucking supply cubbord once.β A vein in Tommyβs head throbbed as he laid a palm over the butt of his gun.. βBut ey, you must be proud, passing on those strong genes. Sheβll be runnin circles around you in no time.β
βAlfie, I will fucking kill you.β She pleaded.
βItβs in the blood ainβt it? Canβt even imagine how sneaky our kids are gonna be considering our tendency to tell a little fib.β
βIβll castrate you before that ever happens.β Tommy growled and finally pulled his gun clear of the holster but Alfie didnβt even flinch. In fact the manβs eyes sparkled with vindication.
βSee, all in the blood.β
