It was Live Aid day. The concert had been a huge success so far - Queen was scheduled to play just before 7:00 in the evening London time.
Freddie arrived with a man to their trailer backstage. "Everyone, this is Jim. Jim, this is everyone."
"Hello," Jim gave a shy smile and shook hands with the band. "Very glad to meet you."
"You as well." Mal shared a smile with Freddie - it was perfectly clear that Jim was very special to him.
"Come sit with us," Freddie said, ushering Jim into the trailer.
They had just sat down when there was a knock at the door. It was Mary and David.
"Mary! Hello my love!" Freddie greeted her.
"Hi. We just came to wish you all good luck." They kissed each other's cheeks in greeting.
"Thank you. Mary, David, this is Jim. Jim, Mary and David. See you after?"
"Yes," Mary assured him.
"I don't think you'll be able to see anything from here - go join them," Freddie told Jim. Mary and David would be watching Queen's set from backstage.
"What do we all think of David?" Freddie asked once the three had left.
"He's a nice chap," said Brian. The others nodded and hummed in agreement.
Freddie nodded. "I think he's gay."
This made the others laugh.
Minutes later, a backstage worker came to tell them that it was their turn to take the stage - it was showtime!
"This is it," cried Mal in excitement. "Ready Freddie?"
"Let's do it, Darlings!"
The announcers' voices could be heard over the screaming of the crowd: "Ladies and gentlemen, Her Majesty - QUEEN!"
(And, as we know, they proceed to rock Live Aid! ;)

Thank you so much for your continued support for this story, it is always appreciated! At first I was a little nervous, as I'd never written a fanfiction based off real people before, but this has been so fun to write! If you're interested, please check out my other Roger love story (similar to this one) and my new Brian love story! :)
