freddie mercury imagines

vulnerability

imagine you abruptly waking up clutching the thick silk sheets around your naked body. you look over realizing freddie wasn't next to you sleeping in your shared bed which is where he normally would be this late at night.

you and freddie were married and had been together for almost six years. you were both extremely happy together as you were both trying to have a baby. you knew freddie was scared about the idea of being a father since he had a very poor relationship with his own.

you felt bad that he was scared but you knew he would be a great dad. freddie was the love of your life and you knew that a child would only make that love grow more.

the thing was though is that you had been keeping the lovely secret that you were already pregnant. you found out about two weeks ago but you were completely terrified to tell freddie that. he was already scared at the idea of having a child but now he actually has one.

you slowly got out of bed leaving the sheet behind not really caring about being naked. you both had seen and explored each other's bodies for so long that the image didn't alarm either of you. you did however grab your robe tying it around your body loosely due to the cold temperature.

you slowly crept out of your bedroom and down the stairs knowing he would have to be here somewhere. once you reached the last step you turned quietly then seeing him sitting on the couch with his guitar.

it certainly surprised you to see him with this instrument since he never played it. freddie had expressed to you before how he was insecure about his piano playing which he was amazing at so the insecurity with his guitar playing was the same if not worse.

you stayed in the door way only wanting to admire him in a moment that was by himself. being together constantly it was hard to find those moments. freddie quietly picked at the strings playing a tune that was new to your years but it was lovely none the less. everything he played sounds like music from the heavens to you.

you were shocked though at the words he started to sing along to the tune.

"what do i do, what do i do. i'm so scared to have you. i know i'd love you to the ends of the earth my dear even if i fall off the edge. oh what do i do with you."

you knew in your core he was singing about the baby in your stomach that he thought was non existent but was actually the opposite. even though you were scared you knew you had to tell him the truth and right now seemed as the best time.

you slowly walked out of the doorway sitting next to freddie on the couch. you tucked your arms around his as you lied your head on his shoulder.

"that was beautiful my love."

he smiles as he leans his head against yours in return.

"thank you darling. i'm sorry if i woke you."

"you didn't. i don't know i just kind of woke up. i think it's because i have been stressed out."

he lifts his head up and turns it to look at you becoming slightly worried.

"why? what's wrong?"

"i-i'm kinda scared to tell you. i didn't do anything bad it's just that i'm worried what your reaction will result in. i don't want to stress you out or scare you." you gently caress his cheek making him gently lean his head against your hand.

"you can tell me anything. please never be scared because you know we could always handle things together. so what is it?"

"i'm pregnant." you mumble but still with no hesitation in your voice. it's time he finally found out.

you continue to stare into his eyes as they start to water eventually pouring over with tears. you gently wipe them off his cheeks as he sets his guitar down absently. his body starts to shake and tremble as he lays in your lap. you run your hands through his hair as you bend down and wrap your arms around him.

"it's going to be alright my dear. it's all going to be okay. i promise you."

he just seems to cry harder so you decide to keep telling him everything you know about the baby.

"i'm scared too. actually i'm petrified but i know that we have a perfect home and a more than stable income. that's defiantly something we don't have to worry about even though i know that's not why your crying." you take deep breath as you kiss his forehead and cheek. "i know your scared about being a father since you didn't really have one. let me tell you something darling. you are going to be the best father i have ever witnessed and how i know that you may ask? because you have been nothing but the best husband, the best musician, and the absolute greatest friend i could ask for to accompany me in my life. so how could you be anything less than a great father."

freddie had slowly stopped crying in your lap as he slowly pushed himself up again but this time collapsing in your arms for a hug. he hugged you in such a way where his head was lying against your chest as your chin was rested against his head.

"see? you even give the greatest hugs."

he chuckles giving your neck a few innocent kisses.

"i love you (y/n). with my entire heart and i will love our baby just as much."

"your the love of my life."
