Maisie Shelby [peaky blinders]

You can have her

I wake up the next morning and put on a suit and go downstairs I see isiah and pol I smile " hi" I kiss pol on the cheek " morning your dads at the garrison isiah is gonna walk you" I nod and we leave

" I'll be right outside okay" he cups my face i nod as he kisses my cheek I lean into his touch "promise me you'll stay outside" he nods and kisses my forhead I go in and into the snug I sit down opposite dad and mum

" look at me please" I take a deep breathe looking up at my so called dead mother " you've grown up in 5 months" i shrug " that what happens when you go for 5 months" i look mum in the eyes " I'm sorry for leaving" she tears up I scoff " no you don't get to fucking cry me and dad have fucking got over you it may have taken a couple of arguments horse rides and panic attacks as well as sleepless nights but we got through it no thanks to you because you weren't here"I shout at her as I watch her cry

" Maisie that's your mother" I hear dad grumble as I turn at look at him " so she's been back a day and your already backing her up" he nods " still your mother" i laugh bitterly and stand up " you two really deserve each other honestly you do but I hope you hope this is for good because you would have lost a daughter for nothing" i walk out ignoring my dads shouts

I walk outside seeing Isiah in the ally way I let out a sob " come here live" he hugs me I put my face in his neck " come on let's get you back to pols" i nod as we walk back and he comes in i sit with pol as he walks through the den " he's already on herside" I feel tears sting my eyes " come here" she waved me over I cuddle into her side

Pols pov

I set Maisie's head on a pillow I shut the living room door as I sit at the kitchen table " where's tommy" I ask john he shrugs and speak of the devil he walks in with grace " speak of the devil" tommy stops and looks at me " is she here" he asks me seeing the guilt I see on his face I tilt my head to the livingroom and grace goes to open the door

" done you dare" I warn her she steps away from the door " is she okay pol" tommy asks i nod " I'm gonna move her in with me" grace steps forward " no polly she's our daughter-" I cut her off " where the fuck have you been these past 5 month eH and last night when she felt rejected and Unwanted" I shout pointing at her she looks at Tommy for help " pol can I see her" i sigh and nod

"Only you Thomas"

Maisie's pov

I wake up to someone stroking my cheek " d-dad" I open my eyes and see dad I look at him suprised " don't be surprised I'm staying" I sit up and he sits in polly arm chair " dad if you want mum have her I'm not bothered" i shrug as I stand up I put my hair back in a pony

" I'm moving out" I walk out seeing the shock and guilt on his face
