ibtyf: brian and roger missing john during touring

They’d all thought about how hard it would be when Brian and Roger started touring again,
but none of them thought it would be this hard.
When Queen had started touring again with Paul, and then with Adam, John had come with
them. He’d insisted he didn’t want to perform, but him just being there still made it feel as
though he was a part of Queen. Brian and Roger could spend all their free time with him and
for a little while, it felt like one big holiday.
But it soon became clear that John couldn’t continue coming with them. Even simply being
backstage started to cause him stress, and he’d find his face in the papers more often than he
would like.
John had insisted he would be fine on his own when they went on tour without him. Andy
would check in on him and even stay at the house a few nights every so often, so Brian and
Roger could go off and tour without worrying.
This tour in particular has been tough though.
Roger misses John desperately, and he can tell that Brian does too. He catches Brian staring at
the lock screen on his phone more than once- a photo he’d taken of Roger and John last year
on a summer’s day in their garden. He watches Brian gently brush a thumb over the image of
John’s smiling face, and it makes him wish he could see John’s smile now.
They FaceTime regularly, but it’s not the same. They tell John about how the tour’s going and
he gives them an update on the family, but it’s not the same as being able to hold him and kiss
him and feel his warmth.
They even try video sex, but it just ends up being a bit awkward and John is clearly too shy.
“I don’t think we can go on like this anymore,” Brian says sadly as he stares at the photo on
his phone again. “I’m just thinking about him all the time.”
“Me too,” Roger admits quietly. “And I think you’re right.”

Pre-claiming John being taken care of by Freddie because his Dom took him on
a date to a venue outside with a no clothes policy for subs and poor John got
sick and has a temperature.
