Freddie Mercury imagines

Will you be there

OH MY FUCKING GOD HE IS TOO BEAUTIFUL TO BE REAL 😭 I LOVE THIS MAN SO MUCH I CANNOT EXPRESS IT LIKE THIS MUST NOT BE OKAY BECAUSE FREDDIE YOU ARE COMMITTING SOME SERIOUS THEFT RIGHT NOW OF MY HEART 😭 O and Sparkle-pony, I'm working on your request and that shall be the next chapter! 

A/N: Ya'll can picture the reader being female or male for this one, I usually write from the female perspective since I am female and I will continue to write the reader as a woman for the rest of the one shots in the foreseeable future, but I do wanna say that if I am requested to write the reader as a male for a certain kind of one shot I won't refuse! I'm not homophobic whatsoever as I myself am bi, (Even tho the majority of my crushes are old or dead male musicians but anyway-) and while I'm not gonna argue whether Freddie was strictly bi or gay he had history with both genders even after he and M*** ended things he did have some affairs with women (I literally just found out a while ago he had a one night stand with Carrie Fisher once what 😭) and obviously I wouldn't love him so much if I didn't accept him for that and for this book I simply feel comfortable writing the reader as a woman as most of the imagines do and because I'm the author so yes 😌 Now that I've rambled enough, onto this chapter : D

1976

"Big fucking surprise." You rolled your eyes as you read the latest in the newspaper, almost everything you saw either being bullshit or uninteresting.

You nearly fell off the bed in surprise as the phone suddenly rang, the newspaper you didn't care about escaping your grip as you huffed.

It's just the bloody phone Y/N, calm yourself down you fucking idiot...

After mentally scolding yourself rather harshly you took a calming breath and picked up the phone.

"Hello?" You brightened your voice, blinking as you heard a distorted noise on the other line that sounded like a sniffle.

"Hello?" You repeated a bit more urgently, not knowing who was calling or if it was a prank call or a wrong number or what.

"Y-Y/N, are you available later?" Freddie sounded a bit scared and nervous, and you knew for certain that you didn't like it.

You were his best friend and had been for many years, you knew him inside and out as he knew you and it always made your heart ache when you saw or heard him sound upset.

"Yeah, of course. Do you want to come over around lunch?" You suggested, sensing that Freddie needed someone to talk to.

"Y-Yes, that'd be great...I-I'll see you then." He mumbled, hanging up before you could push a 'See you later' out your lips.

You were getting concerned about how Freddie was acting, this wasn't like him and you wanted to get to the bottom of whatever it was that made him sound so uncharacteristically anxious.

You sighed and put the kettle on, making tea for the two of you and decided to wait until Freddie arrived to start making lunch. You didn't need to make him upset at the food choice too...

You took a quick shower and threw on an outfit, hearing a knock at the door right as you finished getting ready.

"Coming!' You called as you came downstairs, opening the door to find an almost terrified looking Freddie which broke your heart.

"H-Hi darling, how have you been?" Freddie cleared his throat, clearly trying to sound strong and calm yet the waver in his voice wasn't doing any good at lowering your alarm.

"I'm okay, how are you and Mary doing?" You smiled a bit, opening your arms for a hug which you got quicker than you expected.

Freddie clung onto you desperately, his fingers clawing at your back while he shook slightly and swallowed back a gulp.
