i stood up and my eyes met with his. he was utterly gorgeous. i see why she would have wanted to kiss him. and to be honest, in that moment i just wanted him to be mine. for our lips to meet. so no one could stop us.
we stood in silence for a brief moment until roger broke it by saying, 'can we talk outside?'. 'i don't want to talk to you' i said brutally. i might have had feelings for him but i was still angry and hurt and i couldn't fall for him again. 'please y/n, i can explain everything' he begged. 'you don't need to explain anything, i saw it all perfectly' i shouted. 'meet me tomorrow at 12, the cafe by the river. i promise i'll explain it all, just please come.' he asked with a sad tone. 'you better have a damn good excuse' i said turning around and walking back into the room with jake and delilah. roger hadn't come back in so i figured he must have gone home. delilah's mouth was wide open and jake said laughing 'since when did you get that bitchy', he was obviously joking but i was angry and confused and blurted out 'since i saw the guy i like kissing some bitch at a party. i thought i meant something to him, but obviously not'. i ran and locked myself in the room i was staying in and i felt tears streaming down my face.
~2 hours later~
i had apologised to jake and delilah for snapping like that, i just didn't know what to do with myself. i was pretty sure everyone was asleep by now but my mind was drowned with thoughts. i decided that i was going to meet roger tomorrow, it was a stupid idea and i'd probably regret it. life is just full of regrets i guess.
~11 am~
i had woke around 8 and i was currently getting ready to meet roger. i was extremely nervous, i didn't know if he was going to shout at me or what. alex turned out like that, so roger could as well.
i sprayed some perfume delilah got me all over myself and got ready to head out. 'meeting roger?' jake said with a frown. i simply nodded and walked out the door. it wasn't a nice day today, but at least it wasn't raining for once. it was a sunday so it wasn't very busy but a flood of people getting of a bus came occasionally.
i was 15 minutes early and roger would most likely be late so i sat in the cafe and read the newspaper for a bit. there was a few other people in there, but not many. it was starting to rain now and i just sat and stared out the window into abyss. it was the only peaceful place around here.
the bell above the door rang and i looked over. it was roger. he smiled at me and ordered a cup of tea at the counter. i didn't smile back, i was still angry at him even though i shouldn't have been, we weren't even dating so i had no right to act like this.
he plodded over to me with two cups of tea and placed one in front of me. 'hey' he said with sorrow. i just sat there and looked at him, i wanted to say something but i just couldn't.
he had explained everything and i wasn't too sure whether to believe him or not. apparently he was drunk and someone had pushed the girl into him saying it was me and he believed it as he wasn't really paying attention to what she looked like. 'i saw you looking at me and i realised i fucked up. i really am sorry, love' he said. i do believe he was truly sorry but i dont know about the reason. 'you're a way better kisser anyway' he smirked. i felt a smile form on my face. how could i stay mad at him? 'there's a fair at the end of the market, fancy going?' he asked. i figured he wanted to forget about the whole thing, so did i but i couldn't just erase it from my memory. 'sure' i nodded and headed out of the cafe. i said thank you to the waitress and tipped her like i usually do.
when we arrived at the fair there were couples and teenagers everywhere. suddenly, some kid rushed over to roger, most likely knowing him from queen. freddie hated the band name 'smile' and he had changed it to queen. he designed the logo for it and everything. 'are you roger taylor?!' the boy asked with glee. roger smiled and said 'yes i am'. queen had released their first album and i was beyond proud of them all. they weren't very famous and this had been the first time roger had encountered a fan. i could tell they were going to go places, freddie's vocals were beyond anything i had ever heard, and all the girls would definitely fall for roger with his looks. i figured the boy was around 9 or 10 and by now his mum had scuttled over and apologised to roger and i. 'do you think i could be a drummer like you one day?' he asked roger with an enormous smile. 'of course!' roger smiled. 'is that your girlfriend?' he asked pointing to me. i blushed and roger said to him 'not yet'. i hit rogers arm and i felt my face go bright yet. his mum apologised again and they walked off.
i could tell my face was still bright red and i tried my hardest to not keep eye contact with roger. roger had obviously spotted something and ran over to it like a 4 year old. his eyes lit up. a ferris wheel. i hadn't been on one of those for years. 'can we go on it?' roger exclaimed. i giggled and nodded. it was quite expensive, as were most rides. we hopped on and it started to go up. my stomach turned as i looked down. i didn't particularly like heights and i started to freak out a bit. 'it's okay love' roger giggled as we reached the top of the ferris wheel. he snaked his arm around my shoulders and pulled me close to him. 'i'm sorry for doing that to you. i promise i will always be there for you and i'll never ever do anything like that again'. his words made me blush for the 100th time today.
we went round a couple more times then got off. it had started to get busy now and i had a constant fear of losing roger in the crowd. he could tell i was scared of getting caught up with the crowd and he grabbed my hand and pulled me close to him. his gesture made me feel a lot safer and calmer. anyone would think we were a couple.
we had headed back to delilah and jakes now and when we got there i heard a loud laugh that could only be one person. freddie. we walked inside and sure enough, freddie ran over to roger and i and span me round. 'darling, how wonderful to see you again' he shouted. 'good to see you too fred' i smiled. i figured he didn't know what happened between roger and i, not many people did. 'it's alright to see you i suppose' freddie said to roger sarcastically. roger laughed and said 'and you'. they were always joking like that with each other. i swear they were brothers sometimes.
i peered over freddie's shoulder and saw delilah giggling and making a love heart with her hands, supposedly at me and roger. i simply flipped her off and laughed as roger and freddie were talking. freddie suddenly grabbed my arm and hauled me outside. 'roger has a massive crush on you and he never stops bloody talking about you' he blurted out. i laughed and shook my head in disbelief. 'it's true! just date already' he said putting his hands on my shoulders. 'he doesn't like me like that at all' i laughed. freddie gushed off, shouting 'wait there darling!'. i dont know what his plan was this time, freddie always came up with some idea in every situation.
he ran back out with roger a couple minutes later. i figured he had said something to roger but i wasn't too sure what. 'let's go on a walk' roger said with a suspicious smile. 'it's pouring it down' i giggled. 'so?' he said like i had asked some ridiculous question. he dragged me out of the apartment and freddie winked at me as we walked out. i had absolutely no clue what was going on.
roger and i had walked quite far away from the apartment and we reached a small area with a little pond and a few trees. it was tipping it down still and we stood in the rain for a spilt second until roger turned to face me. 'you're so beautiful' he said staring into my eyes. he was always complementing me so it was nothing special but it make me blush. i've never felt this way before' he said seriously. 'what way?' i asked confused. 'the way i feel for you' he replied. his lips hit mine suddenly with force. he deepened the kiss and then pulled away. 'i think i love you' he said shyly. i would never imagine myself kissing roger taylor in the rain and him confessing his love for me. what was happening? i had never felt like this with alex, even at the beginning. i was sure i loved him but now, i don't think i did. i had this feeling for roger, i couldn't explain it. 'i think i love you too' i replied after a short moment. we both smiled at eachother and kissed once more.
