Y/N Shelby was never one for following the rules, although for the Shelby family that was rarely ever a problem.
She broke many and she did it often but the ones she loved to break the most were those set my her stepmother Grace. Smiling as she found herself walking down the cobblestone of water lane headed toward her family's pub for a night out with her best friend and boyfriend.
Pushing open the door she was greeted by Harry the former owner of said pub behind the bar.
"Ms. Shelby is there anything I can get for you?" He asked.
"Not right now Harry I'll wait for Jack and Carol, I'll be in the snug." She informed making her way through the crowd of men most of which where blinders.
Y/N sat in the snug for maybe an hour before growing tired of waiting she definitely had more patience than her family but not much as she stood up and stomped from the garrison with and obvious annoyance. She figured they must have forgotten to come to the pub, after all this wouldn't be the first time plans between them were canceled last minute most on the part of the Shelby girl.
Being closer to Carol's house she decided to go there to retrieve her friend in hopes of salvaging the rest of the night.
"Jack stop, what if someone sees." She hears her friend giggle before rounding the corner.
"Who's gonna see, everyone is at the Garrison." Jack replied.
There standing at the front door of her best friend's home was the owner herself as well as Jack, Y/N boyfriend, locked in an intimate potion.
Arms wrapped around each other in a state so natural looking it couldn't have been the first time. She felt her heart pounding in her chest as a linkup formed in her throat, so many emotions flooded though her at once she couldn't tell up from down. In the rage won taking control the second the traitorous couples lips locks as they stubbled into the home.
Turing of her heals she refused to let her tears escape her eyes as she backtracked to her previous location slamming the front door open with a presence, much like her father's, that demanded attention.
"You four with me now." She ordered the four blundered closes to the door not waiting for a reply before turning and exiting once again.
The second time making her way towards the home Y/N intentions were less than friendly this time around walking straight up to the door silently insulting the couple for not locking the door in their haste.
"Follow me quickly." She ordered the men as she led them up the staircase she had walk many time to spend time with the girl she concerned to be her only real friend. Coming to a stop in front of the bedroom.
The room where she had laughed, cried over the death of her mother and the deployment of her father, expressed her hate for her new stepmother, and her lover for the two people who were now in that room committing one of the most unforgiving betrayals.
"Break it down." She stated.
The men all turning to look at each other in confusion hearing the obvious activities going on, on the other side of the door.
"I said fucking break it down." This time the order is fulfilled as the men bring his boot down in the door sending it and splinters flying into the room. A loud boom followed by a scream was hear as the men stepped aside allowing the young girl to walk forward.
Y/N waisted no time marching up to the bed a the couple both naked tried to make themselves descent, bring the back of her hand down hard again the face of the other female sending her falling from the bed, before turning her attention to her exposed male counterpart.
"It's not what it lo-." Jack started only to be cut off by a firm fist straight to the middle of his face, Y/N no long being able to control her anger at his attempt to utter out the unoriginal excuse, landing another and another until both his mouth and nose where dripping with blood.
"How fucking dare you?" She asked rhetorically. "You were supposed to be my friend." She turned to the girl on the floor as she flinches away.
"And you." She turned back to the male before stopping a taking a deep breath. "Alright here's what going to happen, These nice gentleman are going to take you both down to the cut allow you to say your goodbyes and then... they are going to put a bullet in the back of both of your heads." She finished hearing Carol begin to sob hysterically as Jack began begging for forgiveness.
"That's what's going to happen if I ever see either of you two in my line of sight ever again," she added. "And don't even think I'll allow the two of you to continue to be together not after what you've don't you don't deserve to be happy. Any suspicious of the two of you even looking I'm at each other for too long and I'll have you castrated!" She slightly yelled.
She knew she was taking this a bit too far and maybe a little later she would regret this or take it back but right now she was in the trenches of a heartbreak and nothing she did could compare to how they had hurt her.
"Boys, take everything that isn't nailed down haul it down to the yard and burn it you can keep any valuables then, 176 crescent ave go there and do the same." She ordered the men her eyes not leaving the couple relishing in the devastation on their faces. "Anyone tries to stop you...cut em'." Turning on her heal and strutting down the stair and back out into the chilly night air.
Making it back home Y/N sighs as she loses her eyes and leans her back on the door, her mind still rushing from the events of the night.
"Y/N." The girl was broken from her thoughts as her names was called accompanied by the clicking of heals on the marble floors, the older blonde woman coming into view looking less that happy with the young girl.
"Grace." She replied back.
Of course Tommy had heard about his daughter storming into the Garrison and kidnapping four blinders for god know what, but at this point his main concern was the impending war zone her was about to walk into.
If Y/N was at the Garrison that mean she disobeyed Grace's request for her to stay home tonight and although his wife and daughter were different in many ways stubbornness was something the two of them were equally matched in.
Opening the front door expecting to hear the two at each other's throats, he was instead met with complete silence which for some reason made him even more uneasy.
Making his way through the house towards the bedrooms making sure to check in on Charlie who was sound asleep, next coming to Y/N room hearing soft muttering from behind the ajar door.
"It's going to be okay." He hears Grace whisper softly. Looking inside to see his wife one arm wrapped around his daughter while the other gently stricken the back of her head. Y/N body slightly shaking as another round of sobs overcome her, with her head resting on the shoulder of the woman she sometimes refused to even acknowledge.
Leaning back to look in the eyes of the younger Shelby, Grace wipes the tears from her face.
"Now you listen to me, if they can't see how amazing, funny, beautiful, and as I've learned stubborn." Grace joked drawing a laugh from the girl. "Then they don't deserve you. So your going to cry tonight, as much as you want, but then you'll not waist another thought on them. Do you understand?" She asked waiting for a nod of confirmation from Y/N before the girl tightened her arms around the woman.
To say Tommy was surprised would have been and understatement, to say he was unhappy would have been a lie. Finally two of the people he cared about most in the world weren't at each other's throats, throwing away the fear that he would one day loose one of them for the sake of the other. Graces transition into the family was not a smooth one especially on the part of his daughter's acceptance and at this point he wished he could bash in the moment that seemed to solidify that she had finally let go of the grudge she was going for the blonde woman for seemingly trying to infiltrate her mother's place in her bad her father's hearts, but the sobs of his daughter were still the background musics to this happy moment and he intended to find out why.
