It's Late ෴ ᵈᵉᵃᶜᵘʳʸ ᵃᵘ

Alternative Title: A Long Time Coming [would be good but I'd rather a Queen song title]

Queen, already a band known for their fame and portrayed in the media as "pompous, arrogant, giant-egoed, regal thinking asses"

It was a biphobic time and Freddie was considering coming out as bisexual but he never said it directly. John and Freddie had been giving each other subtle hints and looks for some time, started to hang out alone like couples would do but never said anything about it to each other.

Now Freddie was gravely ill, his HIV affecting his health and slowly turning into AIDS, deteriorating his health.

It was too late, he should've done something to save him... Maybe he shouldn't been too dense and shy to be with Freddie. He could've stopped him from living a lustful, promiscuous life of a different bed every night. John is full of regret, blaming himself for Freddie's death.

Suddenly, he woke up, younger... Memories from the future retained. He somehow travelled through time, with a well and alive Freddie Mercury sleeping beside him. This is a good opportunity for him to do something, make his love alive for more than 45 years.

Some Disclaimer: This is only a fanfiction, and all a product of the author's mind though I [the author] tried to make it as canon as possible with all the evidences of this shipping... But they're not actually straight'nt as far as I know (too many coincidences hmm) except for Freddie.

Hello! This is my first fanfic, and yeah, the same plot has been probably used a couple times so cut me some slack, bear with me please? I cannot assure you that this ending will be happy; it may be sad, neutral or the first one, happy. Enjoy the story, lovelots xxx
