At camp Kitty and I thought that Freddy Mercury and David Bowie would make the most amazing couple so we wrote a fan fiction. I will record it here. (This takes place in the 1980s btw)
As you all know, Queen and Bowie recorded the hit song Under Pressure together. Freddy and David always had a slight crush on each other (they're actually both bi in real life by the way. yay bi guys!!!!!!!!) One day while they were recording their eyes met. They kept looking away, blushing but they kept looking at each other while the other looked away. So Brian May's amp suddenly became unplugged and Freddy and David both knelt down to fix it and their hands brushed. After the recording session, David says to Freddy "I know a coffee place nearby, want to come?" Freddy, enthusiastically agreeing accompanied David to Java Junction, a well known gay coffee place. Freddy couldn't believe his eyes. Every gay celebrity from George Michael to Boy George happily sipped coffee and ate croissants that look suspiciously like penises (the owner claims it is a coincidence.) The rainbow walls and waiters with tight pants added the icing to the cake of the hip, fun, flamboyant atmosphere. Freddy and David sat by the window and ordered the special (espresso with Mexican jumping beans.) David took Freddy's hands and looked deep into his eyes. "We're no strangers to love; you know the rules and so do I. A full commitment's what I'm thinking of; you wouldn't get this from any other guy." A sixteen year old English waiter named Rick Astley happened to pass their table. He wanted a career in the music business but didn't know how to write songs. He found Bowie's words poetic so he wrote them down. "This might even be a number one hit" he thought. He listened so intently he didn't pay attention to his irate, impatient customers.
"I just want to tell you how I'm feeling. Gotta make you understand" cried Freddy passionately.
Bowie replied; "If we ever were to get married, I would vow never to give you up, never to let you down, never to run around or desert you, never to make you cry, never to say goodbye, never to tell a lie and hurt you"
Stroking Freddy's face, David leaned close and kissed him.. All the words and all the music in the world could not even begin to describe the sensational joy and elation that either felt. A wide range of raw, unknown emotions coursing through their bodies, both knew that this was the beginning of something beautiful.
To Be continued... will Mick Jagger get in the way? Will Rick Astley ever get a big break? what are the croissants really shaped like? find out in part 2 Dancing Through the Streets Under Pressure
