"Ugh, I can't do this anymore." Fred grunted in frustration. "What do you mean?" I asked, concerned. Brian was currently doing his guitar solo before the operatic section comes. "Brian take a break."

I said into the mic so he could hear. He did a small smile and small nod, before coming out. "Freddie take a break, okay?" I asked nicely. He was looking very tired and frustrated. The movie definitely wasn't very accurate with this part.

"You're right." He started. "Everyone take a break, and we can work on Brian's part towards afterwards, how about that?" Freddie asked. Everyone agreed.

60 minutes later:

"Okay, you guys ready?" Freddie walked in. We were all sitting around. "Yeah, let's do it." Roger said getting up, to his drum set. "Okay, Brian, darling, we still have to get your solo in, okay?" Freddie said, facing him.

"Right." Brian went into the booth, with his guitar. "One, two ready, And..." Freddie trailed off. Brian started. I was looking at Freddie, and he still looked a little... off. "It's missing something, I just know it." He thought out loud. Then I thought back to the movie.

"Hey Brian?" I spoke into the microphone. "Yeah?" He stopped. "Put a little more soul into it, a little body." I told him. Freddie looked over to me. "Right. A little more body." He said, doing a small dance. I snorted. "No not like- "no, I know what you mean." He interrupted.

"Okay, ready?" I asked. He nodded. The track began to okay. Freddie started to smile, then looked to me. "That's it darling, THAT'S IT!" He said, excitedly. Brian then finished. "How was that?" He asked. "Perfect!" Freddie clapped.

"Now time for the operatic section." He smiled.  "Operatic section?" Roger questioned, with his head cocked. I smiled.

" Galileo!" Roger screamed for the fifteenth time. The boys are currently recording more of bohemian rhapsody, and I'm actually standing here, witnessing it all. "Higher." Freddie said calmly. I was standing next to Freddie.

"Galileo! Galileo! Galileo Figaro!" He Sang again. "How was that?" Freddie asked, looking at me. "Sounds perfect, in my opinion." I told him, nodding.

"I agree." He smiled. "Amazing job, Roger!" Freddie exclaimed. You could tell how excited he was. I smiled at the sight of it.
They're almost finished, they just had to get Roger's part.

"So the operatic section is now finished, right?" I asked. "Right. Now I just have to sing out the last part, and the song will be finished!" Freddie told me. "Good." Roger started. "We've been working on this song for three bloody weeks now!" Roger said. We all laughed. 

"Heya Fred, what's the name of this song, again?" John asked. He thought about it. "I was thinking about Bohemian Rhapsody." He said, with a proud smile. "Rhapsody?" Roger questioned. "Yeah." Freddie stated. "Like an epic poem." I finished for him. The others just nodded.

"Let's give it a listen, shall we?" Brian said, taking a seat. "We shall." Freddie answered, also sitting. That was a cue for the producer to play the track. We all sat, with big smiles on our faces as the song continued. It ended. "Nothing really matters, to me." Freddie sang along.

My smile faded, once I realized the song was missing the fade out. "What is it?" I heard Freddie say. I looked at him, and him and the others all had their eyes on me. "Hmm?" I questioned. "Your smile disappeared. Did you not like it? Was it too long?" He ranted on.

"Well... I feel like it's missing something." I told him, standing up. "Like what?" John asked, standing next to me. "I feel like the ending can be better, you know?" I asked, trying not to be so obvious.

"Hmm, I think you're on to something." Freddie said, walking over to the producer. "Can you help us with that ending, Brooklynn?" Brian asked. "Of course!" I said, excitedly.
