LEILANI SAT ON the couch with Ben and Rami, laughing at what Ben had said. They were all waiting for the interviewer to come and while doing so, they decided to just have a normal talk and mess around with each other.

"Freddie or Gisele?" Leilani asked Ben who was looking at her. Rami nodded at her question, propping his chin on the palm of his hand, staring at Ben. The blonde made a thinking face before shrugging, his eyes glancing at Rami once in a while.

"You can't do that," he breathed out. "It's like asking Roger who's his favorite person: Freddie or Gisele?"

"We should ask him," Leilani suggested, shrugging a little. "Although, I feel like he probably won't answer, and, it's also like asking Gisele who's her favorite person: Freddie or Roger?"

"Can't relate," Rami smiled, crossing his arms. "Freddie would've picked Gisele due to the fact that she has been there since the very beginning and because they literally kissed."

"Gisele said it was a funny story," Leilani pointed out. "Supposedly Freddie kissed her when they first met. But, it's nice that they stayed friends and joked around with the story a lot. It's nice."

"Wait so it was true?" Ben asked. Leilani nodded. "Wow. That's friendship right there."

Rami and Leilani chuckled at the man, the three instantly sitting up when the interviewer came strolling in the room. The man withheld an aura that would surely even make Gisele uncomfortable. Leilani looked at him, the way his eyes shifted between all of them back and forth and stayed on the girl more than a minute.

"Hello," he greeted, sitting down on the chair in front of them. "It's nice to meet you, Leilani, and you two. Big fan of your work."

Leilani smiled a little. "Thanks."

Ben wrapped an arm around the girl as Rami stared at the man with a glare, studying him when the man smelt like alcohol from where they were sitting at.

"Anyways," the man started, playing with cards in his hands, "you are great in the movie. How does it feel like to work with these guys here?"

"Um it was great," Leilani answered, "yeah, they were, uh, they were the best. I felt close to all of them especially to these two right here as I had a closer relationship with them on the movie. Um, but Rami and I we were always hanging out and just trying to build the type of friendship Gisele and Freddie had in real life while Ben and I we practiced more and more each day and helped each other with our lines. It was the best. "

"I was just talking to my brother about this but we saw that you didn't smile a lot," Leilani sighed, running her forehead. "We just wanted to tell you that you should smile more."

"And I just wanted to tell you that my resting bitch face has nothing to do with you," Leilani smiled sarcastically. "Do you have any other questions, sweetheart?"

"Can't you take a joke?"

"I'm sorry but do you see anybody laughing here?" The man looked around him, noticing the glares he was receiving from the staff and his manager there. "No. You were a jerk saying that, and I called you out, and now you're getting super defensive. Now, if you were funny, that'd be another story."

"I'm sorry sir but you're gonna have to leave."

The security immediately escorted the guy out, holding him by the arms as another interviewer came in. Ben looked at the girl who was irritated more than anything.

"Hey," he whispered in her ear. "Don't listen to him."

"I'm not going to," Leilani breathed out. "It's just the fact that half of the male and female population ask those questions. It's getting more annoying."

Ben nodded. "It's just disgusting how people are so comfortable and confident on asking those questions."

Leilani hummed in agreement, Rami rubbing her arm in comfort.

"There's this villain in the movie," the other man started of, "and it seems as you are the most doubtful one in the band. What were some things that you could've done to avoid the problems that that person sent not only towards you but the people around you?"

"Um, Gisele is one of a kind," Leilani answered, furrowing her eyebrows. "She spoke up to defend those dear to her. Gisele couldn't have avoided the problems that that person sent because as much as she wanted to back away, the urge to fight for what is right hit her and she spoke."

"Gisele is one of a kind," the interviewer chuckled as did the trio. "What was it like to prepare for these roles? Was it hard or was it easy due to the real members of Queen being there to help you?"

"Um, it was hard for me," Ben started, his arm not daring to move away from Leilani's shoulder. "Especially since I didn't know how to play the drums. Uh, I told them that I can play the drums. But I didn't. So, it was hard for me but Roger Taylor was there and he helped me."

"You can go darling," Rami told Leilani as she looked at him so he could speak to next.

"It was hard for a while since I couldn't sing at all," she chuckled. "But as time went on and we all got closer it was nice. It was a dream come true basically. With Rami playing my best friend and Gisele Melendez Taylor there it was such an honor. And, being able to get close to this handsome man right here was nice."

"Yeah what they both said it was hard, yeah, because I had to follow what Freddie was doing or saying. For example, if he faced that way I had to face that way. And, um, Joe and I we didn't have any of the Queen members we were going to play as. But, Gisele she stepped in, helping me rehearse and helping Mr understand Freddie as a person while he helped Joe play bass as she received lessons from John. It was also nice watching these two just build this relationship like Gisele and Roger had. So, it was nice. "

"You guys are so good together," the interviewer commented as he pointed between Leilani and Ben who smiled. "The interaction was real. It was surreal. You guys made my heart melt with such scenes and you being there for her. It felt true. And for you and Rami, you guys broke my heart. The emotional scenes made me cry and, ah, I was all over the place. But you two, amazing job. Great chemistry between you both and good relationship. You guys nailed it as playing Roger and Gisele Taylor."

"Thank you."

Ben and Leilani smiled at each other, the girl placing her head on his shoulder as he placed his own on top of hers. Rami grinned at the couple as did the interviewer.
