Peaky Blinders Imagines✔️

John- In Heaven Togther

I cried writing this request 😭 I miss John. I miss peaky blinders. I miss all the Shelby brothers being brothers to one another

Christmas Day started out as any other Christmas for John, Esme and the kids. YN the eldest of Johns kids was woken up by the younger kids and the dog all jumping on her bed. Esme made breakfast, they opened presents. Ada had also been over the day before to drop off presents. However everything changed when a car pulled up outside of the house
"Dad there's a car outside" YN says looking at the black car that's just pulled up the drive
"Get away from the windows and take your siblings upstairs" being the eldest child of all of Johns children she obliges as she watches her dad pick the shotgun up. YN ushers her siblings up the stairs as John opens the door "oh it's you" this immediately settles the young girl "got nothing better to do on Christmas morning?"
"You lot go up I won't be long" she tells her siblings. Being the ever so curious YN Shelby, she takes a peek at who's here. Michael? Why's dads cousin here? She asks herself
"Tommy wants everyone at Charlie's yard"
"What's gonna happen it's fucking Christmas man"
"Look, John, we don't have time for this" Esme rushes out the door to Michael
"Tell Tommy Shelby, we can look after ourselves"
"Tommy says that they could come for us today"
"Tommy says, Tommy says. Are you his fucking parrot?"
"Dad who's coming for us?" YN asks moving from her hiding position
"It's the Mafia alright! It's the New York mafia we're talking about" Michael should not hearing YN. She stands next to her dad looking at him with worried eyes
"Dad?"
"We're fine YN. We're the peaky fucking blinders"
"No we're not John. We're not the Peaky fucking Blinders unless we're together"
"Dad Michaels scaring me"
"You were together in the gallows with one man missing"
"John, come to the meeting. All right? Think about the kids" YN then starts to hear horse shoes getting closer
"Dad?" she says with a frown
"Come to the meeting and if you want to leave, then fine"
"No. It's Christmas Day" Esme replies "were the family now, we're staying at home" that when YN notices a man jump from behind a hay bail
"Dad!" YN screams. Immediately John pushes YN behind him getting his gun ready
"Get in the fucking house!" he yells. Michael grabs hold of the young Shelby and pushes her away just as more men appear. Esme closed the door behind her as the sound of gunfire becomes deafening. YN holds on to her step mum as tears fall down both their faces.

As soon as the men have left Esme throws the door open, running to John. YN slowly makes her way out. She sees both her dad and Michael on the floor, blood pooling around both of them
"Dad? your just pretending aren't you? A game? Right dad?"
"YN, inside" Michael chokes out. Esme's screams could be heard from a mile away, but the 14 year old girl was stood frozen.Tommy was the first to the scene with Finn and Arthur not far behind
"YN?" Tommy slowly approaches his eldest niece, still staring at the scene in front of her, she barley notices her uncles until Tommy stands in front so  to shield YN from her dads body "YN?" he says again. Realisation suddenly hitting her like a ton of bricks.  She had now lost her dad. He will have joined her mum in heaven
"He's gone isn't he?" she gasps as tears now spill out of her eyes "my dads dead" tommy wraps his niece up in his arms while Arthur tends to Micheal
"Shhh I got you"
"Mums dead, dads dead. Why couldn't things go back to the way they were when we only had the betting shop? If they did dad wouldn't have died"
"We've always had enemies YN"
"But now I'm alone" she cries into Tommys chests
"Your not alone. I promise your not alone" he whispers into YNs hair. YN pulls away from Tommy and kneels by her dad
"I love you dad" YN whispers giving her dad one last kiss on the cheek and hug before Tommy pulls YN off when it's time to move the body
"John loved you too, was smitten the moment you arrived on this earth"
"At least mom and dad are in heaven together"
