*Freddie's POV*
It's been more than a month since the dinner party. A month since Katherine sang for me and everyone else. And a month since that kiss. I still couldn't figure out why I did that or what came over me. But the fact that she kissed me back, was more shocking. But I still couldn't tell her that I had this feeling for her....and it didn't want me to let her go.
******************************
Morning
I woke up to Katherine singing again as she headed towards my bedroom door. It was just a beautiful start to my morning-even though i didn't know what the fuck she was singing. It had to of been in Spanish or something that wasn't English. Also I'm pretty sure she didn't know the words to the song.
"Despacito/Quiero respirar tu cuello despacito/Deja que te diga cosas al oído/para que te acuerdes si no estas conmigo!"
I'm pretty sure she was also making up words while she was swaying her hips down the stairs as a followed her.
"What in the world are you singing? It sounds like you're making a lot of the song up! Maybe even all of it!" I laughed as we got downstairs.
"For your information mister Mercury, I didn't make that up! It's a real song!" She said sassily while she put her hands on her hips.
"Oh really?" I asked "then what's the name of it?"
"Despacito."
"Really? What the fuck does that even mean?"
"I dunno. It's from where I'm from."
"So it's some futuristic crap?"
She sighed and gave me a look of annoyance. "Yes it's futuristic crap! Now let's get this day started!" She laughed.
I smiled while trying not to show my overbite. "Well now I wanna hear it! Can't you play it on this glass thingy?" I asked pointing to the futuristic glass device.
"My phone? I guess. But I don't know if it'll work with out wifi or service."
"What the hell is wifi? Why do you need service to play music?"
"Wifi is essentially the service for my phone to work wherever. That's kinda how it is. Only scientist can possibly explain it better than me. Anyways, do you wanna try listening to the song or not Mercury?" She asked me while I was still trying to comprehend what she was saying. "Yeah sure let's here this futuristic crap!"
So she played it...and I wondered what the fuck the future had done to music. Sure it was catchy-but ANNOYINGLY catchy.
"This. Song. Is. Considered. Good. Fucking. Music??? What happened to the world?? Dear god!"
She laughed while she set her phone down. "I'll be right back-I gotta get dressed."
"Alright." I said as I looked at her phone...that hadn't turned dark yet.
Perfect.
I wasn't wanting to snoop her phone at first, but this was probably the right time to do so.
I headed towards the phone and tapped it. More music was on this thing! But it was music I barley recognized. She had The Beatles-which I recognized. She had Micheal Jackson, I barley knew him. She had someone named George Micheal, Miley Cyrus, Shawn Mendes, Ed Sheehan, Melanie Martinez, a band called Fall Out Boy. She also had(believe it or not) EVITA. She practically had the entire albums! There were apparently many renditions of the musical. Also, in case you're wondering, yes Katherine did have Queen music and also my solo career stuff. I just chose not to look at because I wanted to not screw up my future. I finally closed out of her music and and looked around. She had these little icons on her phone, like something called Instagram, Twitter, Snapchat, and an icon called Paper 53, along with another icon called YouTube. Interesting, but I wanted to find more. She had to of known more about me. I hadn't reveled it yet, but that thing that happens in 1991 was killing me.
I then found this thing called Safari, I then tapped it. Then there was this tiny box that said-"search or enter website name." For some reason I hit the letter "G" for no reason. What the fuck?
This thing called Google appeared-along with something else under it.
"Freddie Mercury Death November 24 1991"
What?? I dropped the phone on the counter and sunk to the floor. Then tears slipped from my eyes, and sobs came from my mouth.
I die?
I used to never be afraid of death...until she came. Now I was so scared because I loved her. LOVE. I was actually scared to leave someone...who I didn't even know if they loved me back.
At that exact moment Katherine came back downstairs in the middle of my tears.
"Freddie!" She freaked "what's the matter hon?"
I looked up to see her right next to me. "Oh...um...nothing darling. Just...the song. Makes me kind of teary eyed."
"Yeah, I guess this song also gets me kinda sad too. My older brother used to sing it to me all the time when I was a kid. He sang it before he went to college too."
She then wrapped her arms around my waist and started singing the words of the song...and this time I was tearing up because the song actually made me cry, not the fact that I knew I when I was going to die.
"You'll be in my heart/yes you'll be in my heart/from this day on/now and forever more/you'll be in my heart/no matter what they say/you'll be here in my heart/always"
We stood there for a moment. Not a single word being said.
"I...I got to go and get ready for the studio. I'll probably be gone for most of the day, so you can just relax here." I whispered softly.
"Oh...okay. Are you sure you're alright to go? Maybe you can just stay here because you're upset." She said while being very concerned about me.
"I'm fine I promise darling. Now let me go get ready and my driver should be here soon." I said in my normal voice, not my crying/upset voice.
"Aright have fun. I'll just be...you know what? I don't know what I'll be doing. I guess I'll figure it out later."
I laughed while heading up the stairs. I then shut my door and just fell to the floor. Tears and quiet sobs slipped out again.
I didn't want to die...I wanted to live. I wanted to live and be with Katherine Mia Daniels for as long as I could. Maybe this could change the future! Maybe this could change everything!! But what about her finding out about all this? She's gonna find out I was snooping her phone! And that I know I...die! And......that...and that I love her! And I love her!
This wasn't good. I was now starting to get in a fit of anger. What if she didn't love me back? What would happen then?
I couldn't do it. I had to tell her I knew. I knew that I was going to die November 24,1991. What would happen after that? I would just have to wait and see.
I got up,got ready and headed towards the front door.
"Have fun at the studio! See you tonight!" She blurts out from the kitchen.
For some reason, I felt as if I had looked at her, I would freak out on her. I just simply said a "goodbye" and left and waited for my driver.
And off to the studio...

Wessex Studios
"Fred! You seem like you're pissed at something! And we sure as hell don't want a moody Freddie today! I'm having a pretty good day so fucking far!" Roger said while we were finishing work on a track written by him called "Sheer Heart Attack".
I wasn't in the mood for this today, I just wasn't after this morning. "I'm just not in the mood Rog. And you know I hate being called "Fred"."
Roger gave me a look,while John and Brian listened but chose not to engage in the conversation...yet.
"What happened? Did you and Katherine get into a fight or something? Does she even know you love her? Have you even told her???"
I froze. I just couldn't move after what he said. This morning was just to much for me to handle.
"For your information Roger no. I might tell her tonight or sometime this week. And also I'm just not in a pleasant mood today."
"I can tell...." Roger muttered.
I ignored it along with everyone else in the room. I didn't want to think about it but it was to hard for me not to.
It had to be tonight. I knew sometime eventually I'd say "I love you" to Katherine. I had to tell her I knew what happens in 1991 that was so bad.
What I didn't know was how she'd react...
******************************
Freddie's Flat-8:50 PM
I walked into the flat and I felt as if I was in trouble. But I knew I wasn't-it was Katherine who had some explaining to do.
"Oh you're home early? I thought you'd be coming home later than this." Katherine said from the top of the stairs, heading downstairs towards the living room.
"Yeah we got done early I guess. But we still have some more work to do." I said quietly.
Her back was now turned to me as she headed towards the living room couch.
I finally said it...
"So I die?"
Katherine froze. She stood there scared for her life as she turned around to face me. "What do you mean?"
"What happens on November 24 1991? I know something happens...let's see...how about I die!" I now started to yell. "I know it happens now! I saw it with my own eyes Katherine!"
"God dammit Freddie! I knew I should've turned the music off and taken my phone with me! I can't believe I left it out in the open for you to see!"
I stood there-arms crossed and gave her a cold stare. "Why didn't you tell me this in the first place Katherine? Or is that even your real name?"
"THATS MY REAL NAME YOU FUCKER!! BESIDES WHY DO YOU EVEN FUCKING CARE?? YOU SAY YOU AREN'T AFRAID OF DEATH!" She screamed. She had lost it-i had pushed her to her limit.
Then I lost it-my eyes became watery and I practically screamed at her.
"I USED TO NOT BE AFRAID OF DEATH UNTIL I MET YOU! NOW IM FUCKING AFRAID OF LEAVING THIS EARTH BECAUSE I LOVE YOU!!"
Katherine stood there in shock. Tears were about to well up in her eyes. Then she hissed at me:
"No you don't Freddie. You only love the thought of me."
"Do I need to say it again?? I love you! I've loved you since I first met you! I've known there was something about you since the day we first met! And I still don't know what it is! But there's much more to that!" I cried.
Katherine stood there in shock.
"I-I'll be back soon." She headed towards the front door, grabbed her shoes and left.
"No Katherine wai-"
I was to late-the door had shut and I walked towards the window and saw her walk down the dark street...in tears.
I fell to the floor in screamed in pain. Emotional pain. If I went after her, I knew I'd screw something up. If I didn't...I wouldn't know what would happen.
"Please come back to me."TO BE CONTINUED......
