the offer || thomas shelby

Summary: Tommy Shelby is worried for Y/N, who is tiring herself far too much at The Garrison. He offers for her to work with him instead. Is that all he wants? Will she accept his offer?

Requested: Yes.

Word Count: 1k.

Reader: F.

Warnings: None.

Working as co-bartender after the races is not an easy shift, to say the least, but today, it has you worse for wear. Perhaps it was the lack of sleep you had gotten the night before or that you have accepted more shifts than you can handle recently. In fact, your job has taken more of a toll on you than you would like to admit.

As one would expect, the Garrison was overflowing with drunken men, either pleased or disappointed with their earnings from the day’s races - with you receiving every outburst from their intoxicated state.

Even though the end of your shift was edging near, the men showed no sign of calming down. As more voices were begging for your attention, you took a moment to focus yourself and take a deep breath. You pushed a stray piece of hair behind your ear and closed for eyes for a moment. While doing so, a loud bang from the opening and closing of the front door almost instantly made the entire room quiet down for several moments. It hadn’t been this silent since you started the shift in the early hours of the morning. Without the need to open your eyes, you knew exactly who had arrived as only one family could do this in Small Heath - The Shelby’s. Thomas, Arthur, and John along with a few other Blinders are dressed in their tailored suits, followed by their dark trench coats and their razor-edged peaked flat caps - the classic Blinder uniform.

There was one particular Shelby that caught your fancy since meeting him a few months ago. Maybe it was his cold, yet enticing sunken blue eyes that complimented his perfected, neat-cut ebony hair that reeled you in. Or that he was one of the few men that treated you with respect at the Garrison. Though, you knew he was special to you for other more important reasons.

His stern, husky voice interrupted your moment of peace and startled you, “are you ever going to accept my offer?” Thomas’ eyes laced with concern as he examined how your recent abundance of shifts has affected your appearance. He took off his cap and placed it on the counter, fixing his ruffled hair.

The offer of which he is speaking of is one you have over thought every night for the past 3 weeks since he asked.

As soon as Thomas Shelby laid eyes on you, he wanted to protect you from any harm your job or anyone may bring. He had waited until you two knew each other better before offering you a job at Shelby Company Limited. The specific job had not been discussed since you declined Tommy’s offer before the both of you got a chance to discuss it.

The reason as to why you refused his offer was quite simple. Though you wouldn’t admit it to yourself, you are scared. The Shelby’s, especially Thomas and the gang he leads, is dangerous and not the kind of people to be messed with. You knew them to be kind, caring and thoughtful, but you cannot forget how they treat their enemies. However…being associated with the Peaky Blinders wasn’t the reason why you are scared…

In only a few months, you have gained feelings for the infamous gangster and that has you second-guessing every exchange between the two of you. You have always believed that Tommy and you could never work. There isn’t any time for love in Thomas Shelby’s hectic life, is there? The thought had always crossed your mind each time he laughed a little too much at your cheesy jokes or gazed for a little too long.

“Hello, Thomas. How are you?” You sighed, sarcasm dripping from your lips as you proceeded to serve the customer next to him, ignoring his question as you knew by the sound of his voice, you were in for a lecture.

Frustration shot through him as he waited for you to serve his blonde haired friend, his tone getting more annoyed by the second, “You work too much, Y/N. It’s not healthy.”

“Smoking isn’t healthy either, Tommy. I’ll quit when you quit,” you knew it was a low blow, but you had hoped he would back off after it, as the both of you knew he would never give up smoking.

His voice soft and low, almost offended, “that’s not fair.”

“I need this job, Tommy. I need the money.”

“My offer is still on the table, Y/N…” He stated, looking into your eyes for a trace of submission, braiding his hands together as he rested them on the rich, deep maroon counter.

“…You do not deserve to be wearing yourself out, let alone surrounded by idiotic men trying to get into your pants, 24/7.” He continued as he inched himself closer to the bar, surprising himself with his plea and subtle jealousy, though he did not regret it. Tommy is not the one to beg for anything, neither are any of the Peaky Blinders, but he respected you enough to not demand you to accept his offer, knowing full well he could.

There was something about how he was talking, presenting himself to you in a way you have never seen before. It is obvious that he cares so seeing him allow himself to somewhat vulnerable towards you, made you consider his offer.

“What would I even do for work over there?” You asked, realising you had never speculated what you would do at Shelby Company Limited. The books? Assistant? The possibilities were endless.

“Well, for one, you could work alongside me if that would interest you…” His eyes widened with joy, a smile forming on his soft, pink lips.

“Tommy, I don’t think I’m as qualified as you believe me to be.”

“You are more than qualified, sweetheart. I will clear my lunch for tomorrow so we can discuss this further. Does 12 o’clock at my office suit you?”

“Sure,” You inched closer to him, your torso touching the counter as you gently touched his hand, “thank you, Tommy.”

“No need,” Tommy answered, brushing his thumb across your palm sweetly in response, before picking up his cap from the counter and heading back to his brothers to celebrate the day’s winnings.

Do you have any good fluffy John fic or one shot recs?

Hey, love! I've only done a quick search through the John tag (because it turns out I mostly reblog smut and angst for him lol) but here's some I really like:

Matchmaker by @giftedwritings. It's John x May Carleton's sister and it's really cute!

Christmas Morning by @siriuslymoon. Some domestic fluff involving John's kids on Christmas morning. It's adorable

Snogging In The Snow, which is also by @siriuslymoon

Snowman Slaughter, again by @siriuslymoon. These are all quite festive, but they're so cute that I had to add them anyway

This blurb by @champagneholland about the reader being shorter than John.

And Rumour Has It by @murswrites is a cute little blurb that includes flustered John, but check their masterlists for more John stuff as well.

I hope you like these, anon.

matchmaker || john shelby

Summary: Tommy Shelby tries his best to play matchmaker with his brother John and Y/N, May Carleton’s sister.

Requested: Yes.

Word Count: 1k.

Reader: F.

Warnings: None.

“Are you ready, sister?” May knocked three times gently on the door. Both Y/N and her sister rented a room each at the fanciest hotel Small Heath could possibly offer.

“Yes, is our car here?” Y/N answered while spritzing a touch of her favourite perfume, an import from France, before heading out to the car with May.

This is the second time she has accompanied her older sister to Small Heath, helping with the training of Thomas Shelby’s prized horse. Y/N knew little of the leader of the Peaky Blinders gang, aside from the small introduction of her last visit. He had been quite respectful for the time she spent with him. It was obvious as to why May had taken such a liking to him and it wasn’t simply because she had a thing for bad boys.

The journey to the Shelby stables was a lot longer than normal, but the two sisters didn’t mind. Since May lost her husband, she has been lonely up at her large, lavish mansion. Wanting nothing but to help her sister, Y/N travel’s back and forth to her house and the family home to keep May company. She is ever so grateful for her only sister as it has made her life more exciting and less lonely. The least she could do was let Y/N help with the horses, a much-loved hobby of hers.

“Alright. Here they are.” Thomas took one long drag of his cigarette before pointing out the two women to his brother, John, who was waiting eagerly by his side outside the stables.

“You weren’t kidding, she is a right stunner,” John gasped at the sight of Y/N. He had expected her to be decent, considering she is the sister of May, but he never imagined this beautiful.

Thomas had invited him to join him at the stables today, knowing that Y/N would be there. He would not admit it, but Thomas loved to play matchmaker and since neither she or John were not married to anyone, it seemed like a perfect fit. However, it wasn’t merely because the two of them were single, he had a feeling that they would both hit it off as soon as they are introduced.

As the woman drew closer, only a few meters apart, both John’s and Y/N’s began to flutter with awe and nervousness. Both of them already forming a crush on each other based on appearance alone.

Y/N could now see the freckles that framed his face and became lost in his piercing blue eyes, as did John with her Y/E/C ones.

“Hello, Thomas,” May said with a slightly seductive tone, greeting him with a kiss on the cheek, as did you. Thomas let out a cocky clearing of his throat before introducing you to his brother John. He quickly went on to discuss the horse with May to give John some time to introduce himself alone.

“H-hello, I’m John…John Shelby.“ John let out with a choke, almost instantly formed his famous boyish grin in an attempt to save face.

“Hello, John. I’m Y/N Carleton, May’s sister.” Y/N said as she reached her hand out towards John, him kissing the back of it gently.

“I know…I mean…it’s nice to meet you, Y/N.”

“Is he always this shy?” May had asked Tommy, a little too loud, John shifting his position awkwardly.

“Well no…quite the opposite actually,” Thomas’ answered much quieter, though Y/N still heard what he said. This made her smile to herself, thinking that maybe she had this effect on the younger Shelby.

“Shall I walk you to Grace’s Secret?” John clears the awkwardness in the air, motioning Y/N to loop her arm with his.

“That would be great.” She gives him a smile as she takes his arm, a peachy heat forming on her cheeks.

The two of them leave May and Thomas to discuss business, among other things.

“May I ask how old you are?” Y/N asks. May hadn’t told her much about Thomas’ brothers as she didn’t deem it necessary and that she didn’t have much information herself to share.

“Don’t you know you know it’s rude to ask a lady for her age?” He says, barely able to finish the sentence without a chuckle.

“Oh, I am ever so sorry, milady.” Y/N laughs at his joke. The both of them not wanting to rush the walk to the horse. Being around John already felt comfortable to Y/N, it did help that she found him hilarious - his charming boyish grin helped also.

“So Tommy tells us this is your second time in Small Heath?”

“Yes, it is. Well, I’d say it’s my second time at the stables, not Small Heath. We didn’t stay long enough last time to truly see what it had to offer,” Y/N replied as the two finally reached the beautiful grey horse. Y/N made her way straight to Grace’s Secret, unlocking the stable door to give her a loving pet. John’s voice shifted Y/N’s attention back to him, “Maybe I could show you around? It isn’t the fanciest place on Earth, but it has its moments.”

“I’d love that, John.”

“You’d love what, sister?” May asked, only catching the last bit of the conversation with her and Thomas finally caught up with them.

“John’s going to show me around Small Heath.”

“A date already?” Thomas had tried to act shocked, but his tone was prideful and mischievous, believing his goal had already been achieved.

“I don’t believe I mentioned anything about a date, Thomas.” Y/N said, all four of them letting out a chuckle.

“I’ll be showing her around. There may or may not be dinner involved.” John chimes in, a mischievous grin forming on his face. Both John and Y/N wanted it to be a date, though they didn’t want to discuss much in front of their older siblings.

“Only if he’s on his best behaviour.”

“Never.” John smiles at Y/N sweetly, already planning the special day in his head.

John: “Oh my days…who is she?”

May: “That’s my little sister! She is off limits to you.”

Thomas: “I think it’s too late, May. It looks like John has taken a fancy to Y/N already.”

John: “Shut up! No, I haven’t. Well…maybe I have. She is gorgeous.”
