peaky blinders imagines

isaiah jesus headcanons (1)

-he's a well-known flirt, but you're honestly his first true relationship
-because of this, he's very clingy, always with a hand in yours or a palm pressed steadily against the small of your back in public
-in private, he's like a spider, all thin limbs holding you to him and low voice whispering all manner of compliments in your ear
-some of this behavior manifests itself in instances you notice right away, but it isn't until a year into your relationship that he quietly admits he sleeps far better next to you than he ever had before
-he likes to bring you into the office often
-his original intent was to show you off to all of the other peaky boys but then you and michael ended up friends
-he rolls his eyes over this quite often but is secretly very happy you fit into his little world so easily
-he kisses you on the lips frequently, but he likes to kiss you everywhere, from cheek to jaw to forehead to collarbone; anywhere he can drop a quick reminder of his affection for you
-he moves you in with him fairly quickly; half of the reason for that was because he anted to and half was because his father had insisted, saying he liked you
-once your house truly becomes a home, and you settle into a routine, you two become accustomed to you perching on the counter, isaiah's hands on your knees as he stands in front of you and you clean his face off
-he notices every little grimace you make when you come across a cut and it makes his heart beat that much faster for you
-he'd kill finn if you ever found out, but early in your relationship he very casually referred to you as 'my wife' to finn and didn't realize his error until finn wouldn't stop smirking
-you have a pet bird, a little gray finch named 'maggie' who isaiah rescued after seeing she had a clipped wing
-she hobbles around and complains mostly, but seeing that bird is a constant reminder that your isaiah is still compassionate no matter how far into the shelby business he gets
-when he's away in london, he calls you nightly and you spend an hour discussing your days until he hears you yawn one too many times and tells you to get some sleep
-you never even entertain the fear that he'd cheat on you while on a trip because you know the thought would never even cross his mind
-he knew from the moment he met you he wanted to marry you, and the only reason he waited two years was to ensure you'd be comfortable, because after all, you were always his first priority
