Save Me (A different fanfic)

Chapter 2

"You know you can't mix in with musicians. You could end up leading them into all the mess we're in already!" Nigel was yelling at me in his usual tone. 

"I never said anything about me and my job. Just told him what my name was, that was it."

Nigel still stared at me as if I had committed a crime. "A name could still lead him into this mess." He turned around for a second and then turned back with a complete mood change. "So what is he like in real life? Is he brash, is he stubborn?"

I laughed at him, as he was secretly a Queen fan. "Actually, he was very sweet. Saved me from being taken away from the Bandits."

Before sound came out from his mouth I added, "And for the record, I didn't say anything about them. When he asked I just said that someone was following me."

"Well, you can go as long as you are careful. Take Roxy with you, she'll be helpful incase the Bandits do come back." Nigel stood there with the puppy dog eyes, hinting at the obvious.

"And get you tickets for the concert, and get you to meet the band members?" I asked, laughing at his reaction.

"If you do that, you're SO getting a raise!" And for once he wasn't joking.

6:30pm. We were standing in the cue outside Apollo theatre waiting to get our tickets. Nigel was literally jumping at the thought of seeing Freddie's hair and John Deacon's bass whilst Roxy stood beside me, shivering as it was minus 5 degrees outside.

"Are you sure he's going to get you the tickets? I mean he could be teasing." Roxy asked as we moved two spaces closer to the doors.

"Why would he do that? He seemed genuine about it." I said, smiling as I remembered the moment when he held my hand.

"What's that face for? Oooh! You fancy him! I'm not even sure it's even him you're talking about." Roxy laughed.

"It is so! And no, I don't fancy him. He would never fancy me. But I am surprised he invited me to come to the concert. You should be thanking me, I got free tickets." I hit Roxy in the arm and we laughed as we kept moving down the lane into the theatre.

Brian did stick to his word as there were three tickets waiting for us. How he knew we needed three tickets, I'll never know. Eventually we made it into the concert hall. The support band were ok, but everyone was there to see the main event. Then Queen came onto the stage and played the fast version of We Will Rock You that got everyone going. The concert was incredible, Freddie had everyone singing along, John's dancing made everyone giggle and Roger's drum solo was out of this world. And then Brian played his guitar solo, it was stunning, I literally had shivers down my spine. Afterwards the crowd went wild, as Brian grabbed his acoustic guitar and sat down in front of a microphone.

"Well, Glasgow, you're a great crowd!" The cheers filled the hall as Brian sat looking amazed. "Well, this song I'm going to dedicate to someone I've invited along tonight."

My heart literally stopped beating. No way he was meaning me. Roxy stared at me, not taking it in as well.

"I really hope she came and she's here tonight but this song is also for this amazing crowd. Now I would sing, but Freddie insisted on getting everyone else to sing along with him. So this is Love Of My Life."

His guitar playing was beautiful as Freddie's voice and the crowd singing along actually made me cry a little. Suddenly I felt Roxy nudging my arm.

"Bandits, two o'clock..."

She was right. Five men in their tight black suits were heading backstage, running past the guards. Something was wrong. Me and Roxy budged through the crowd to follow them. But as soon as we were approaching backstage, the guard stopped us.
