Lilly Shelby ~ Shelby sister imagines

Peer Pressure

Lilly's POV:

------------------------------------------

13th of January. Emily Doggs, my best friends, birthday. And as her parents may be easy on her about the drinking and late night parties, my family are not. if I was late home even half a minute Tom would have the whole peaky blinders out looking for me. Which is why i needed a plan, a plan to become un-noticed by people wandering the streets and for my family to think i'm home. It was hard to out think the mastermind Thomas Shelby but it was something i'm proud to be trying, i had come up with a plan that was so bad i actually thought it was good.

5Pm i would pack a bag full of makeup, put my pajarmers on over my fancy clothes and have dinner with my family, no one becoming suspicious of my activities. 6PM i would get Finn to make sure no one went to my room by saying i was sleeping ( this was very hard to convince him to do) and sneak out the bathroom window and leg it to EM's house, Johnny dogs knew i was going to be there so he may be aware of my plan but i'm sure he's no snitch. Hopefully (fingers crossed) this will all go well, the last thing i want is to be in an argument with my family the second week of the new year.

It was going SO well! i was enjoying the party a lot, seeming as i never get a chance to do normal fun teenage things i took every moment for granted. I did have a few drinks.. but i can sure handle them, other then everyone else who seemed to be quite un aware of what was going on. (Time skip) The time was now 22:45 and i promised Finn i'd be home for 11, so i was going to say my last goodbye to Emily, "hey Em i'm going to head off now so i'll see you on Monday" i said as i endured her into a hug, "noo girl, you not going anywhere" she said laughing as she squeezed me more into the hug "yes Em i have to go my brothers are gonna go crazy" "they don't know your here in the first place, make the most of the lie and stay the night like some others are" "i really cant Emily i cant handle another argument with my family" "they won't know just shhh and stay pleaseee it's my birthday" i really felt bad since it was her birthday, and what harm would me saying at a friends house do? Finn stays out all the time.

So now it's 6.55 am sunday morning and i'm currently walking home, scared for my life. I'm seriously regretting staying at Emily's, even though Johnny knew where i was no one could convince my brothers of a good enough excuse of me being there. It was just a few minutes later that i reached my green front door, i took my specially made key out and opened the door trying to not make any noise, "she's sleeping she said she doesn't feel well" i heard as i crept to the wall of the kitchen, "okay well if that's true i'll go and see her right now" it was Finn and Aunt Poll talking about me? how would she have found out i'm never up this early. "No poll she said she doesn't want to speak to anyone" i heard Finn plead my case, i really felt bad for him here, he is such a good brother and i don't want to keep putting him in these situations. Should i just make a run for the stairs and quickly hop into bed? or should i just own up to where i was, i don't want to get Finn in trouble. As i crept closer to the side of the wall i could see aunt poll with her back to me and Finn luckily facing me, trying to catch his attention by waving and mouthing his name i finally got him to notice me. I pointed at myself and up to the roof and hoped he got the memo, i was trying to sneak back to my room. Finn then shuffled to the other side of the kitchen leading Polly with him so i could make an escape, i quickly ran upstairs with my mouth sealed shut so not even my sleeping brothers could hear my breathe.

Of corse as i got right by door i heard a fake cough from behind me, i sighed and turned around but seeing as it was only john man could i get out of this easily. "heyy" i said awkwardly "i know you went to that party, but don't worry we wont snitch, will we Arthur" he said saying the last part loud enough for Arthur to hear him from his room. " we wont what- oh Lilly, i expect a cup of tea on my desk in 10 minutes if you want that secret kept" he laughed as he walked out of his room and walked downstairs "make that two" john replied as he followed Arthur. I wasn't exactly thankful for my unplanned interaction but i was thankful that it was John and Arthur and not Tommy.

I hate my cocky brothers but i hate peer pressure more, this is going to be one tiring day.
