Tennessee Orange

Chapter Eleven - Tennessee Orange

Megan's POV
The week long trip to my own parents' house goes great. My parents really seem to like Morgan and I'm glad because my dad never liked any of my boyfriends before.

Anyways, right now, Morgan and I are at his house sitting on the couch, waiting for Caleigh and Hardy to call us announcing their engagement.

Suddenly, my phone rings and I answer it, seeing that it's Caleigh.

"Hi Caleigh. What's up?" I say, trying to keep my voice neutral as possible to hide my excitement.

"Michael just proposed to me! We're engaged!" Caleigh replies excitedly. I smile.

"That is awesome, Caleigh. Congratulations!"

"Thanks Megan. Sorry if I interrupted anything. I was just super excited. I'll see you in a couple days, okay?"

"Okay. Bye Caleigh," I say.

"Bye Megan!"

Caleigh hangs up the phone and Morgan looks over at me.

"So? They engaged?" He asks. I nod.

"Yep. They are. This is exciting. I can't wait to go to the wedding,"

"Yeah. Me neither. You know, Hardy told me that he doesn't want me to be one of his groomsmen and I don't exactly understand why, you know? I mean, we're best friends, him and I." Morgan explains.

"It's probably because he has friends from back home who he's known longer than you. He probably figures that they're first priority because of knowing them longer, you know?" I question. Morgan shrugs.

"I guess I can respect that. Thanks Megan,"

"Of course. And just remember that even if you ain't some groomsman, at least you're invited to the wedding." I add.

"Yeah. That's true," Morgan mutters.

Morgan's POV
A few months later, I'm upstairs at work talking to some suits about my next concert tour that will follow the release of my newest album, One Thing At A Time.

"We think you should extend your tour to New Zealand and Australia. You have a lot of fans down there just like you do here the U. S. and Canada," one of the guys says. I nod.

"Okay. Sure. I can do that,"

"Great. Now who are you planning on taking with you on tour? We figure Hardy and Ernest are at least coming with you, but you need at least one of two more openers. Plus, people who can step in for Hardy or Ernest when they're unable to sing for select your dates." Another guy explains.

"Okay. I was thinking maybe Bailey Zimmerman and Megan Moroney could be my openers, but who could be my replacements for Ern and Hardy?" I ask. One of the suits shrugs.

"Well, we were thinking that Riley Green could join you later in the tour when Hardy's fall tour has kicked off and Luke Combs' tour is over. Parker McCollum can also join in when needed. Besides those two, we have no problem with Bailey Zimmerman and Megan Moroney joining you on tour, but Megan may need to step out sometimes to be the opener for Tyler Hubbard of which she already has previous engagements with as you very well know, I'm sure." He says with a smirk. I frown.

"What's that supposed to mean?"

"Mr. Wallen, we are aware of your relationship with Miss Moroney and we're happy for both of you, but we don't want it to interfere with your tour at all. I mean, if you two were to break up during the tour, then it could be very awkward singing on tour together." A suit explains. I chuckle and shake my head.
