Sheer Heart Attack

Chapter sixteen.

I wake up with a smile on my face recalling yesterday's events. Roger asked me out. I am Roger Meadows Taylor's girlfriend.

I take a quick show and dress in plaid high-waisted jeans with a red blouse. I put on red platform heels and my classic, red lipstick.

Since I always where my hair down, I think I'll wear it in a ponytail today for a change.

Once I'm in my kitchen, I start to make pancakes. Roger is picking me up and I want to make him breakfast. Just as I take the last pancake off the stove, someone knocks on the door.

"Good morning," I say opening the door coming face to face with Roger. He smiles and gives me a kiss on the lips. I'm so happy we are dating now. I hope he feels the way I do.

Roger's pov

"Good morning," Ellie's beautiful voice greets me as she swings the door open. I smile brightly at her and give her a quick kiss.

"You've got food cooking?" I ask her walking in. She nods her head and pulls me into the kitchen. I sit on the counter and watch her cook the food.

When she is finished, she gives me a plate with pancakes, eggs, and bacon. "Wow this looks really good Els," I tell her.

"Thank you!" She say smiling. We take a seat at her dining table and dig in. After we finish eating I drive us to the studio.

Ellie's pov

Me and Roger are sitting on the couch together in the studio not paying much mind to anyone but each other.

I'm messing with little strands in his hair twirling it between my fingers. Roger and I are shamelessly flirting back in forth while he leans in every so often to give me a peck on the lips or check.

"Roger! I thought I told you to keep your hands to yourself around Ellie!" Freddie fusses looking at us.

Roger doesn't take his eyes off of me when he says, "I no longer need to keep my hands to myself when she's my girlfriend." I smile when he says the last three.

I attempt to give him a quick kiss but he pulls me closer to him deepening it. "What?" I hear Freddie, Mary, Brian, and Deaky say at the same time.

Roger's pov

"What?" Everyone says behind me. I roll my eyes and pull away from Ellie.

"Since when?" John asks. "Last night," I answer him. "I can't believe you didn't tell me you were asking her out," Freddie gasp.

I roll my eyes and turn back to Ellie. "Where were we?" I say smirking. I pull her back to me and begin to kiss her again.

"Ew, they look like love sick puppies," Brian fake gags. I throw a middle finger up at him, and continue my assault on Ellie's lips.

She pushes me back and I say, "What's wrong love?" She leans forward and puts her lips to my ear. "I don't want to make out with you in front of everyone," she whispers embarrassed.

"Ok, but it's going to be hard for me to keep my hands off you," I whisper so I don't embarrass her more. She blushes red and pushes me away with her hand in my chest.

Eventually the boys pull me into the recording room away from her. "So do you plan on being serious with Ellie?" Brian asks me while tuning his guitar.

"Absolutely," I say, "She makes me feel so amazing Bri." He smiles and says, "I think you chose a good partner Rog. She seems perfect for you."

Shaking my head I say, "I think she's more than perfect." Gazing off into space, her smile flashes to my eyes.

"Stop daydreaming Roger. Make yourself useful and get behind your kit," Freddie says smacking my head. "Ouch Fred," I say rubbing the back of my head.

Once we finish a song, we like to run through it all together to get a feel of what it sounds like live. We also like playing as a full band together.

Freddie wrote an outrageous song about our terrible management. They are stealing our money that we earned. I mean they won't even give Deaky money to put a deposit down for a house. He's married and has a kid and is still living in a flat!

Anyways, the song is call Death On Two Legs (Dedicated to...). It's quite genius really. Freddie just had all this bottled up anger towards them so he did what he does best, sang it out and wrote a song.

After we finishes a run through of it Deaky says, "I love that guitar part at the during the chorus Bri. It sounds, menacing."

"I can't wait till the management hears this," I say laughing. "How are they going to hear it with their heads up their asses?," Freddie says. We all laugh a bit and make fun until Fred suggest we record more of Bohemian Rhapsody.

"What are we up to today?" Brian asks. "We'll be finishing the operatic section dear," Freddie says. "Right," I say.

"Roger, you're up first. I need you to sing the Galileos again. Also I think it would sound fantastic if we add a high note to the end of the section," Freddie tells me.

I put my headphones on and get behinds the microphone. The rest of the boys are in the sound booth sitting at the panel.

"Alright Rog, right now all I need is the last line. Sing it as high as you can," Freddie sassy through the intercom.

"Right Okay," I say. He counts off and I sing, "for meeeeee," the highest my voice will let me.

We continue this for a while then move on to my least favorite part; the Galileos. I'll probably be stuck back here for an hour.

"Higher Roger," Freddie would say every time. "Are there any more words to the song than Galileo? I mean it's the only thing I ever sing anymore!" I say. "Stop acting like a child," I can practically hear Brian rolling his eyes.

"Why don't you get in here and try?" I say crossing my arms. The continue to torture me until I finally have had it. "Alright I'm done." I take off my headphones and make a new line for the door.

"What do you think you're doing?" Fred catches me. "I just need a break, please," I beg putting my lips. "Ugh, you look like a hopeless child. Fine. You're done, for now."

I pump my fist in the air then collapse on the couch laying my head on Ellie's lap. She giggles and runs her hands through my hair. I'm quite tried from all the work today.

Combined with the gentle feeling of Ellie's hands in my hair and my overall tiredness, I fall asleep in her lap.

Ellie's pov.

I giggle as Roger starts to snore quietly. "I knew he was a snorer!" John says.

Freddie runs to the restroom and returns shortly with a cup filled with water. "Oh no," I think to myself as he comes closer.

He dumps the cup on Roger's face, some of it splashing on me. Roger immediately sits up straight confused for a few seconds. "You bastard," he says to a laughing Freddie.

He is hunched over with his hands on his knees he is laughing so hard. I try to stifle my giggle when Rog looks at me. He notices the water on me and looks more angered.

"Freddie! You got water all over my girlfriend!" He yells. "It's okay Rog," I whisper pecking his cheek. "Oh dear," Freddie suddenly stops laughing and stands straight up.

Roger begins to step off the couch and Freddie bolts to the door. "Freddie, you bastard! Get back here!" Roger screams running after him.

The other boys and I all laugh at them as they exit the room. "That's one way to wake him up," Brian says through his laughter.
