november 14, 1974
" it comes out today oh my god!! " lilly yells from excitement. little did i know ' queen ' has a new album coming out.
roger and i didn't exactly talk much after everything. but lilly obviously hung out with them over the summer. got to become close with them again. she got to learn when everything would be happening, new music, tours, getting mail of stuff before it even comes out.
" it won't be out here anytime soon " i say fixing my make up before she rubs back into my room.
" not if you have a boyfriend who sends you everything before it comes out in america! " she yells as she takes out the record from the mail package.
" i can't relate. "
" stop being such a debby downer! you were the one who forced me to like them! and i got a boyfriend out of it! " she yells at me as she places the record on the record player and the music begins. i sigh as i listened to the voices and instruments coming from the machine.
i miss the boys. i haven't seen them since may and now it was november. i haven't really talked to any of them either and i don't really know why.
my mind zones back in and i hear fred's voice singing the first song on their record and then the music ending.
" oh wait this is the one i got to her a bit of! fred played some for me! " lilly chirps in before the second song could start. snaps started to come from my record player and then freddie's voice.
i sat up intrigues by the song as it continues playing. lilly and i keep giving each other ' oh my goodness ' looks because how well this song was. it just kept pulling us in.
" this is such a freddie song " lilly laughs causing me to laugh as well. i get up jumping and dancing around on my bed to chorus. i pull lilly up with me and by the second chorus we knew the words.
" she a killAR quEEEEN " we yell, laughing and jumping around like children.
" oh my god that's my boyfriend!! " lilly yells sarcastically when brian's guitar solo came on and she ' fainted ' into my arms causing myself to come down.
the song ends completely leaving lilly and i laying down listening to the third song. but i couldn't stop thinking about the boys, well roger, but no the boys.
" i miss him. "
" who josh? "
" no roger. " and with that i was reaching towards the phone. lilly stared at me blankly waiting to see what i was gonna do. my fingers were typing numbers without me even thinking about it.
" hello? " i hear the soft voice of the man i've slowly caught feelings for over the past few months.
" hi roger. it's oakley. "
" hi " it was quiet for a moments after, i was trying to think of the right way to word what i wanted to say to him. " roggy who is it? " i female spoke in the background and my heart broke forgetting he has another. " just a friend from america i'll be back in bed in a sec " the muffled roger told the woman who got him to fall for her.
" oh- i forgot its later there. " i look up to see lilly frowning at my reaction. " i was just calling to say how proud i am of you and the boys for the record. we just sat down and are only on the third song. its amazing. " he didn't answer, " i miss you " was what i said next, which is what i wanted to say and 100 more things after that.
" wow. thank you, hearing that from you truly means so much. wow. hey look, i'm gonna call you back later on once emma leaves, she's only here for another hour. i miss you too. maybe you and lilly can fly out and stay with one of us. but we'll talk about it later, talk soon oaky " his voice brought me back to the three days in new york city.
" of course, rog " i just said hanging up the phone and turning to lilly. " i fell for him lil, but it hurts " i die out as i lay my head down on my pillow. she didn't speak, her arms wrap around me and rub my back. i didn't wanna cry over a blonde from london but they just fell out of my eyes. i couldn't control it.
