Relationships

Chapter 14

Freddie's P.O.V.

After I left the hospital, I hailed down a taxi to take me home. I was so furious with Brian and his accusatory statements about Paul. He's got some nerve professing his love for me then basically calling me a whore, at least that's how I took it anyway. I just don't understand why they hate him so much. Maybe they're just jealous because he's my personal assistant. I don't know what it is, but I'm going to call Paul as soon as I get home. Maybe he could shed some light on why they hate him so much.

I finally arrive at home and straight away I call Paul to get some answers.

The phone is ringing.

"Hello."

'Hello, Paul sweet heart, how are you?, Its Freddie darling.'

"Oh hey Freddie, I'm fine." "Is everything ok?"

'No actually dear, I need to see you right away.' 'Can you come over to my flat now please?'

"Sure, I'm just leaving out now." "I'll be there in a few minutes."

'Fine darling, I'll see you soon then.'

A bit of back story on my relationship with Paul and I. When he and John Reid came aboard to manage us, we use to hang out a lot. This was during my wild and crazy days. We did a lot stupid shit together, some things I'm not to proud of. Drugs, one night stands and a couple of orgies were just par for the course.I won't mention some of the other shit we did, I'm simply too embarrassed to even think about it. However, that was a long time ago and I've completely changed since then except for maybe the drugs. Unfortunately, I did sleep with Paul once which was a huge mistake. He was a terrible fuck in bed and I wouldn't sleep with him again if he paid me. Anyways, ever since then he's been up my arse like a constant shadow. Plus he provides me with cocaine when I need it. I would never tell Brian about this because frankly its none of his business. Nevertheless, if Paul is mistreating my friends behind my back, then he will be terminated immediately.

Someone's at my door now.

'Hi Paul, come in dear.'

We exchange hugs and pleasantries at the door and I invite him in.

"Hey Freddie, how's John doing?"

'Oh swimmingly.' 'John's doing quite well actually.' 'Can you believe it.' 'I'm so happy that he's going to be okay.' 'He'll be back to his old self in no time darling.'

"Oh that's swell." "I'm glad he's doing well and getting better." "I'm also glad that Reid was understanding enough to put everything on hold until John recovers"

'Well we really didn't have a choice now did we Paul." "It had to be done." "The bloody album can wait."

"Or you could just hire a temporary Bass player in the mean time." "So the album can come out a little sooner." "I mean its something to consider Freddie." "Just think about it, you can start making the money now sooner than later."

'Is that the solution you and Reid came up with since this happened to John?' I asked him.

"It was mentioned, Yes." "I mean come on Freddie, it makes sense if you think about it."

As Im sitting here listening to Paul, I'm getting angrier by the second. Maybe Brian was right. This arsehole wants to get rid of Deaky. Temporary or not, Deaky's not going anywhere!

'Makes sense to who?' 'You mean to you and Reid.' 'Is that what you're telling me Paul.' 'Because it doesn't makes sense to me and the idea that you even suggest this, makes me sick to my stomach.'

Paul is glaring at me like I'v'e grown two heads.

"You know what Freddie you guys are so fucking Stupid!!" "And then you wonder why you're not bringing in the kind of revenue you should be making." "I bet that stupid boyfriend of yours Brian has been talking shit in you're ear about me too." "Oh yeah, I know about this little fling you two have going on." "You're more dumber than I thought, hooking up with you're fellow bandmate." "I mean what an idiot you must be to do something so fucking STUPID!!

My face is Red and I'm about to fucking Explode!!!!

'You need to.. FUCK OFF PAUL!!!!!' 'They were right about you MUTHER FUCKERS!!' 'Too bad for me though! I should have seen you Bastards for who you really ARE!!' 'You're fucking fired Paul.' 'I want you and John Reid to clear the Fuck out of E.M.I...A.S.A fucking P.!!' 'Or I'll go over there myself and kick your ARSES out of there personally!!!' 'I fucking trusted you Paul and this is how you fucking repay me!!!!!!'

"Now now Freddie, you're just over reacting." "I simply made a mere suggestion, that's all." "You're making a big mistake Freddie"

'The only mistake I've made was hiring you JACK ARSES in the first place!!' 'Now get the FUCK out of my house before I fucking kill you myself!!'

Paul has quite simply lost his fucking mind disrespecting me like this and in my own house too.' He goes on to say:

"You son of Bitches will regret this!!" "Mark my words Freddie!!" "You're not going to get away with this." "We still have a fucking contract to finish out."

At this point, I pretty much lunge at Paul and was ready to kill him with my bare hands! He immediately starts running towards my front door trying to get out.

'Fuck you're bloody contract and get the FUCK OUT NOW!!!!!!

"Alright alright, but you're going to regret this Freddie and I'll make sure the press knows about all your Bloody secrets TOO!!!"

He's saying all of this outside my door on the front steps. I finally shut my door and literally drop to my knees and burst into tears. I feel utterly betrayed. How am I going to face the others now. Especially, the way I've acted towards Brian. Paul was right, I am an idiot. An idiot for trusting the wrong people. I continue crying and sobbing and need to call Brian right now and apologize to him for everything. I feel completely shattered right now.

I pick up the phone and dial Brian.

'Hello.'
