A/N

Hello again! As you can see, here's another one of my Freddie fanfics (and, yes, there will be a handful of these, as said in my profile…)

So…the wheels turned in my head, yet again, when I watched this fantastic movie. I added a new character--and again, she's a girl (and a Renthead…a little shout-out to all of my fellow Bohemians out there). She kinda becomes Evan's guardian angel, in a sense…but I'm going to shut up before I give too much away.

DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN AUGUST RUSH OR ANY RELATED TITLES. It belongs to Warner Bros. Studios.

Again, I got the dialogue from the movie…added dialogue, took some out…added more curse words when needed (sorry)…and I obviously added scenes with the new character to fit the story. I even added an epilogue!

Oh, and the random quotes at the beginning…they just tie in with the chapter…Idk, something new that I decided to try.

I think that's it! Read on and enjoy!

Prologue

Listen.

Can you hear it?

The music.

I can hear it everywhere.

In the wind…

in the air…

in the light.

It's all around us.

All you have to do is open yourself up.

All you have to do…

is listen.

.........

Where I've grown up, they tried to stop me from listening to the music. But when I'm alone, it builds up from inside me.

Sometimes it's sweet.

Sometimes it's joyful.

But most of the time…it's…lonely.

Like a voice.

A beautiful, clear voice.

Calling out to me.

Pleading for help.

Wanting a friend.

Trying to find refuge in a lonely universe.

And I think…if I could learn to play the music…

the voice might hear me.

They might hear me.

They being my parents.

They would know I was theirs…

and find me.

And…if we were all together…

maybe that voice would follow the music.

It would follow the music to us…

and the voice…

whoever it belongs to…

would find us.

And we'd make the voice feel welcome.

And I'd let the voice know…

that I'm always there.
