Must Be Love

The Back Alleyway

Rogers P.O.V
Kian was at football practice and Lawrence had gone to the library to revise so I had nothing else to do but to go and see Freddie.

We usually met behind a diner, in an alleyway, I had to admit it wasn't the most prettiest place to meet your crush but we had to meet in secret.

As I walked down the street to where the diner was, holding my jacket as close as I could to my body for warmth, Britain was bloody freezing at Christmas time.

I slipped in behind the mouldy brick wall and sighed, Freddies hands slinked their way around my waist and he flipped me over to face him.

He grinned a toothy smile, a lit cigarette hanging from his lips, he let go and stepped back from me, "Hello there" he teased, looking at me with his dark brown eyes.

"Hey" I felt myself blush slightly, I leaned back against the wall and took a packet of cigars out of my pocket, "How's your biology lessons going?" He asked, blowing out a large cloud of grey smoke into my face.

"Yeah they're going alright" I replied lighting my cigarette and putting the lighter back in my jeans, "how is your art?" I said softly giving him a once over.

He had on skintight black jeans and a grey coat with a fluffy trim, "Oh fine" he said through clenched teeth "Im making a new coat for Kash" he grinned at me showing me his teeth.

I smiled at his comment, he had always cared for his sister and he loved her with all of his heart.

He took a long drag of his cigarette before looking at me "Been with any girls recently?" He asked me curiously, his eyes never left mine as he spoke, he said it so... softly  that I began to get my hopes up.

"Uhm no" I giggled, his black hair was shining in the spotlight that was hanging above his head, he looked so gorgeous it was taking me all of my strength for me not to press my lips up to his and kiss him right then and there.

I looked at my watch, "Shit" I growled throwing my cigarette on the ground and stamping on it "I need to go" his smile faded slightly and he pouted a little.

"Will I be seeing you soon?" He asked, placing his hands on my shoulders and pulling me into a hug, he let off a naturally warm feeling which made me feel cosy and safe.

He pulled away and took my face in his hands "Of course you will" I smiled, "I should probably be going" I freed myself from his grip and turned away, half running half walking towards the end of the alleyway.

I arrived at school just in time for my last lesson, I had anatomy with Dr. Giles and the lads, we had it in a lab where we usually did practicals.

"Hey Kian" I whispered as I slid into my seat "Hey Lawrence" I opened my book up onto the next clean page and began to write the date.

"Where were you at Lunch?" Kian asked smirking at me, as he started writing the question that was written on the chalkboard, "Having fun with Jenny behind the school?" Lawrence let out a giggle

I rolled my eyes at his statement, "Veeeryy funny Kian" I groaned "Everyone's had a scoop from her" I looked at front where Jenny was sitting.

Our eyes met briefly and she turned away blushing, "I bet even Lawrence has had some" I winked at him and he folded his arms angrily.

"Ooh Sorri!" I joked sticking my tongue out while Kian bit on his knuckle to stop himself laughing at Lawrence.

"Jesus you two are gonna be the death of me" Kian chuckled as he rubbed his forehead. Lawrence was bright red in the face, he tapped our blank peices of paper and went back to his work.

Dr Giles had finished talking about organisms or something like that, again I wasn't paying attention, I was too busy drawing in my book. Then came a knock at the door and in walked the head of biology.

"Is Roger Taylor in here?" She asked glancing around the classroom to see if she could spot me.

"Yes he's just there" Dr Giles said sweetly, he pointed towards me with a long, boney finger "Do you need him?" I looked at her with fear in my eyes.

"Yes he'll need to bring his things" he stared at me like she was some kind of doll, lifeless and empty "I don't think he'll coming back"

I quickly packed up my stuff and swung my bag over my shoulder, I looked back at Dr. Giles with a desperate plea in my eyes, she shut the door behind me and took me by the arm.

She took me to the back of the school where the administrators offices were and the headmasters "The headmaster wants to see you" she said stopping outside of a familiar white door with the black words written in bold 'Mr Jaston'

I swallowed down a lump in my throat as she opened the door, Mr Jaston was waiting for me, twiddling his thumbs impatiently, his eyebrows raised.

He motioned to an empty chair, The woman closed the door and left, leaving me and the headmaster alone "Sit down please Roger" he said almost annoyed, I sat down slowly and placed my bag on my lap.

He stood up and grabbed a jug of water and two glasses. I'm sure you are quite... worried on why you're here" he said darkly, as he poured the water. "I wanted to talk to you about something that's.. concerning us" he placed a glass of water infront of me.

"Our of our staff members saw you with another.. boy down an alleyway" he was reaching into a bookshelf and scanning the spines of each book carefully before picking out one and carrying it back to his desk.

my heart stopped, was I going to be in trouble "W-we didn't d-do anything th-hough" I stuttered, my legs weak, sweat gathering on my forehead.

Mr Jaston chuckled "I am very well aware that you didn't do anything" he took a sip from his water and sat back down in his chair "What's the boys name Roger" he asked, flipping through the book he had just picked out.

"F-freddie Bu-ulsara" I stammered looking at my lap anxiously."And what school does this Freddie attend?" He asked, I blinked back the tears forming in my eyes "Ealing Art College" I responded softly. He nodded and began dialling a number on his telephone.

--------------------------
"Hello? Is this Ealing Art College?"

I couldn't hear what the receiver was saying.
--------------------------
"Yes, yes hello this is Mr Jaston from
East London Polytechnic school."
--------------------------
"I have a male student in my office who I believe has been meeting up with one of your students"
--------------------------
"Freddie Bulsara I believe his name to be"

I couldn't take my eyes off of him, I felt like I had betrayed my friend
--------------------------
"Hang on just a second"
--------------------------
He put his hand over the speaker  quickly
"Do you mean Farrokh Bulsara Roger?" He asked. I nodded
--------------------------
"Yes Farrokh Bulsara"
--------------------------
"No no! The poor boy isn't in trouble at all, I just wanted a quick chat with him and my student about something one of my staff members observed"

An awkward silence followed
-------------------------
"Thank you for your time, goodbye!"

He put the phone down
-------------------------
"I have just spoken to the headmaster of Ealing" he said, my heart sunk and I was at a loss for words. He stood up and strided towards the bookshelf.

"He has agreed to let Mr Bulsara talk to me and you tommorow" He said placing the book back."It will be on Farrokhs free lesson but.." he paused clicking his tongue "It will unfortunately be during your biology lesson"

'Unfortunate?' I thought to myself 'That's perfect timing!'

"I will be seeing you tommorow at Eleven, Sharp" he tapped his watch "Goodbye Roger" he said as he waved me out of the door.

A/N
Wooo! That was a difficult chapter to write. I had to do a lot of research so I could get the facts right. I hope everyone is enjoying the fanfic right now, I sure as hell am enjoying writing it. I'll probably leave the chapters now until Friday, I don't want to finish this fanfic only a week after starting.
