(okay, this story's EXTREMELY short so theres only one part, I apologize I'm not a writer and I hope others will enjoy the story as well 😟)

Going back to 1973, John Deacon still being pretty new, the band brings in a new member. “What are we bringing in a new member for? We already have drums, bass and electric guitar already.” Brian asks in confusion. “They were looking for a band to join, plus they play rhythm guitar so it's not like we have both bass guitar or something.” Freddie said sternly.

“When are they coming?” John asks. “Here soon I believe.”  Freddie replied. A few hours pass, and finally the member walks into the studio. Y/N walks into the studio with her rhythm guitar in its shiny black case. “Hello, are you Freddie Mercury?” She asks as she looks at Freddie awkwardly.

“Why yes I am darling and this is Brian, Roger, and John.”Freddie says as he points to the others one by one. “Hello.” Y/N says, she walks over to them and shakes their hands timidly. “Don’t be frightened, we promise to make you feel a part of the band and not left out.” Roger said. “How about you show us how your instrument works?” Brian added on.

A year went by, the band got very close with each other. Y/N was warming up to the band pretty quickly. They really did make her feel like wasn't just there and that she was a part of them, like a family. Y/N wrote a few songs from the band's new album “Sheer Heart Attack” like Killer Queen, Tenement Funster, and Lap Of The Gods.

“What?! A music video?” Y/n says, not expecting a music video for her song “Killer Queen.” “Yeah, you DO wanna do a music video right?” John asks, sort of confused. “Yeah of course I do, but I wasn't expecting MY song was gonna have a music video?!”
“What if I disappoint the crowd?” Y/N says, getting nervous. “You’ll do great, just play what you wrote, I promise you won't disappoint them.” John said, hugging her.

“Excuse me?” Freddie said angrily. “You heard me, this is the BBC, whatever i say, goes.” The producer says. “You know we can play our instruments right?” Brian replied. “Just pretend, it's not that hard.” “I cannot believe you want ME to lip sync.” Freddie scoffed and went onto the stage.

Y/N felt a little calmer knowing that she just had to pretend but she was still upset BECAUSE she couldn’t actually play. After they were done “playing” they went back to their hotel room. Freddie was the only one ready for bed, (Rog, Bri, and Deaky were getting food.) Y/N was outside of the bathroom freaking out about how she did in the music video, like if she didn’t pretend good enough.

Y/N was also contemplating a lyric for her new song. Basically Y/N was under a lot of stress. “What the hell? I literally can’t think of anything.” She muttered. Y/N was under so much stress she had started crying.

Freddie notices her as he walks out of the bathroom. “Oh shit are you alright darling?” “What-oh yeah I’m alright.” She said, as a tear rolled down her cheek. “You don’t seem okay, what’s bothering you dear? You’re crying.” Freddie said, trying to console her. “Okay, well I’m currently under a lot of distress,I can't think of a lyric for my song and i'm on about the BBC. I don’t think my pretending to play looked legitimate. I don’t want to upset the people.”

Freddie gives her a hug and pats her head. “I’m so sorry you are going through so much stress at the moment, I understand how you feel with music videos and of course song writing.” Rog, Bri, and Deaky come in with the food and they notice Y/N crying. They quickly set the food down and sit by her. Freddie then explains the situation and all three of them hug Y/N. Deaky kisses her forehead softly in a platonic manner.

Another year had gone by and the band had made their 4th album, “A Night At The Opera” and Bohemian Rhapsody being a huge hit, all was going well. Y/N wrote “Lazing On A Sunday Afternoon” and the band thought that the song was extremely good, so they put it on the album.

The band continued on their music journey. They hoped they’d make more albums in the future and gain more fans, hoping everything ended well
