Shelby Clan- A New Shelby Member

Thank you @bigwoof07 for the idea!

While the men were away at war, YNs father died from a gunshot wound, but not only that her mother passed away from heartbreak. This caused YN to end up in care at the age of 14. Thankfully though that didn't last long though. Polly Gray decided to adopt the sweet, shy, quiet girl.
For the next next year, YN struggles to get close to Ada because of how loud she is, however Finn and YN get on well making YN feel comfortable. That all changes when Arthur, Tommy and John come home. YN finds it hard to fit into the loud rambunctious family. Now YN is 15 years old, she's still shy and quiet, nothing like her new family.

YN sits in the kitchen reading a book while the family tuck into their breakfast
"YN put that book down at the table" Polly scolds placing some food in front of her
"Sorry Polly" the shy girl says placing her book down making Finn laugh
"After breakfast I'd like you to head down to the market get us some more bread and milk"
"I'll send Isaiah with her" Tommy says. Out of all the Shelby's Tommy is the most protective of YN. They all are, but Tommy is the one who most protective
"She'll be fine Tommy"
"I'll still send Isaiah with her"
"YN eat up" Polly says again knowing there's not point arguing with Tommy because either way Isaiah will be going with YN.

"You cousins are protective of you aren't they" Isaiah says walking down the street with YN
"Adoptive cousins. And yes" YN quietly chuckles
"Got a new girl Isaiah!" a boy shouts towards the pair laughing. YN immediately lowers her head, looking at the floor
"Just ignore them"
"Oh come on. Why don't you share?" YN then feels a hand on her arm making her gasp
"Let her go" Isaiah says sternly
"Come on let's go, she's a Shelby" another guy says
"Yeah only adopted by then. She's just a sad little orphan. Forget it. Have her" Isaiah pulls YN away, instead of going to the market he takes her home knowing that she already has tears pricking her eyes.

Unfortunately for YN this guy doesn't leave her alone. She's subjected to being bullied at school and on the way home from school, but YN refuses to tell anyone what's going on. Polly can tell something is going on with her, she tries to talk to her, but YN pretends she's ok.
On the way home from school YN takes a short cut down by the canal
"Oi YN!" YN lifts her head up to see the same guys who have been bullying her since that day at the market. Her feet move quickly under her feet trying to get home as quick as possible "hang where do you think your going?" hands grab on her arms
"Please let me go"
"Haven't got your boyfriend here to help you now" the boy laughs
"Please don't hurt me" YN pulls away
"I think she needs a cool down don't you?" another boy chuckles
"No no please I can't swim" YN now yells with tears running down her face
"Aww what a shame" and with that YN is pushed into the cut. Slashing about and spluttering she tries to keep her head above water as best she can. Little do the boys know that Finn was playing down by the cut and saw the whole thing. He ran as fast as his legs could carry him and bursts into the betting shop where his brothers all are
"Tom" he breathes out catching everyone's attention "Tom it's YN. She's in the cut, she can't swim" Tommy look at John and Arthur signalling for them to follow him and Finn.
When they arrive they see a tired looking YN struggling to stay afloat while a group of boys are stood laughing. Tommy takes off his hat and wast coat jumping into the water without a thought
"You think this is fucking funny?!" Arthur yells walking over to the boys "your lucky your kids because if you weren't..."
"Arthur!" John yells "let's take you home to your parents" John and Arthur take the boys by their ears as Tommy pulls a shivering YN out of the water
"Let's get you home eh?"

"What the bloody hell happened!" Polly yells seeing YN with wet hair sat by the fire with a blanket around her shoulders
"YN has failed to tell us that she's being bullied at school. Today some of her classmates decided to push her into the cut. Thankfully Finn was there, came to get us"
"Where are your brothers?"
"Taking the idiots home" Polly then sighs
"Ok well let's get you into a warm bath" YN gives her adoptive mum a nod before following her.
Yes she's different from the Shelby's, but this only went to show how much they all see her as part of their family.
