I woke up at the same hospital I gave birth in, with Roger at the end of the room, smiling.
No, no, no, no, no.
"Lucy!" He ran up to me, in tears kissing me. "I really shouldn't have left you. I'm so so sorry. Deep down, I do love you."
What a bunch of bull shit.
I couldn't help it. I just burst into tears in Rogers shoulder.
"Luce, who pushed you?"He didn't know.
"Rog.."
"Yeah..."
The silence got louder as he slowly realised.
"Lu-"
"No. I'm not fucking doing this again. When can I leave?"
"Not any time soon. But-"
"Why are you even here? Why don't you fucking go back to Mia or whoever."
"If you stop interrupting me I can-"
"Where's Carrie."
"With Brian.""Why did you fucking do this to me!?" I said, eyes filled with tears.
"Lucy... I did it for your own good."
"What good did this fucking do me? I almost died for a reason you know."
"I'm sorry."
"I need to see Carrie."
"No, Luce. I think-"
"I don't give a shit about what you think! Give me back my fucking daughter!" I couldn't hold it in anymore. I burst into tears again. "I trusted you! I gave you another chance! But no, you fucking cheating on me, took my child and left me while I was at my lowest!"
"I'm-"
"I don't want you here. Fucking get out."
"Be reasonable Luce."
"I am. Now get the fuck out."August 16th, 1975
Queen are getting more popular, so they're doing another tour in America. Roger didn't tell me when they would be back, so it was just me and Carrie for the time being.
I had no clue what was going to happen when he was back, whether he was going to live with us, move to the other side of London alone or with Carrie, I had no clue whatsoever.
"When are you leaving?" I asked him, trying to make conversation.
"On Wednesday."
It was so awkward between us now, and I hates it so much. I hated Roger for what he did, but I missed our relationship at the same time.
It hurt to see it.August 20th, 1975
Roger left earlier this morning, without even telling me or waking me up to sake goodbye.
Whatever.
It's fine.
I got up out of bed, and went downstairs to make myself a coffee, when the phone rang. It always rang at the worst time.
"Yes?"
"Do you know where Rog is?" Said Brian.
"He's later then me!" Freddie said, from a distance.
"No. I'm sorry I woke up and he was gone."
That's when I heard Carrie crying upstairs.
"He'll probably be there soon."
"Thanks anyways. I don't mean to be nosy, but what's going on with you and Rog?" Said Freddie, taking the phone from Brian.
"We're still together."
"Knew it." John said, whispering.
"I'll speak to you guys later. Good luck finding him." I said, hanging up the phone before anyone could reply.I went up and picked Carrie up, with a headache worse then ever.
I don't know if I can live like this.
That's when the door slammed open, waking Carrie up after I finally got her to sleep again. I went down the stairs, pissed with Carrie crying in my arms, to see Roger and Brian, with Brian shouting at him loudly.
"Shhh!" I said, looking at Carrie, then back up at them.
"Sorry!"
"What's the problem now?"
"He fucking decided not to show up!"
"So where were you?"
Brian looked at Roger, eyebrows raised as Roger looked at the floor doubtfully.
"Well?"
"Don't look at me like that Bri. You know damn well that Carrie isn't mine."
"Well she doesn't fucking look like me, either.Carrie just.. takes after her mother more."
"Stop changing the subject Rog. Where were you?" I asked him, furious.
"For fuck sake! He was at your fucking sister's house." Brian shouted.
My heart ached badly after hearing those words. I fucking knew it.
"I'M NOT FUCKING DOING THIS ANYMORE!" I shouted as tears fell down my cheeks, waking Carrie up as she cried in my arms.After that day I never saw Roger and queen ever again (besides TV and newspapers) and It was just me and Carrie.
Apologies that this is kind of short and boring, a little detail is requires to get to the main point:) Also, I realised that at the start of this story, I made a date of something happening in July 7th 1975, but I couldn't think of anything to add for that, so ignore I ever put that at the start.
Hope you're enjoying the story so far, enjoy :)
