Colors by Llarowe-I Am SO Grounded!

Leah Ann writes: My best friend and I concocted a plan to say we were staying at each other's house for the weekend. We then snuck off to Dallas to a Queen concert. Long story short my BF talked her way back stage for us, I met the band and couldn't bring myself to even breathe. Freddie took notice and asked "are you alright dear?", I think I shook my head yes and he laughed, kissed me on the cheek and went to his dressing room. This is the outfit he had on when I met him.
