Chasing Your Dreams

Fatherly Advice

Miranda's pov

We get back to Nashville, having a break for a few days. The girls go back home with Jessica. I walk out of my room, Sierra beside me. "We're gonna explore Nashville." I state, shouldering my purse. Jason and Brittany exchange looks. "Just be careful. And stay outta bars after 11. It gets rough out there." "We will. We were gonna check out the hall of fame." "Alright, have fun." I wave and me and Sierra catch a bus to the hall of fame. "Nashville is so beautiful." Sierra says. I nod and pay to get in. "Hey Miranda, after this let's grab some lunch at Tootsie's bar. I hear it's famous." I smile and nod. "You heard correctly best friend, Tootsie's bar is where many of our favorite singers got their start. I've always wanted to go there." We finished up at the hall of fame and walk over to the iconic bar. "Right across from the Rhyman." I say, pointing. We walk in and go to the top floor, hearing the live music play. "Wow look. Johnny Cash... Dolly Parton! All these singers!" I laugh and hug Sierra. I glance at the bar and my eyes go wide seeing Mo! I walk over and clear my throat. "Hey Mo, it's so great to see you again." He turns around. "Oh hey! Um... Your name has slipped my mind." "Miranda." I say, sitting on a barstool beside him. "How's it going?" He asks. "Great! Meeting Jason opened doors for my career. He's become like a second father to me." He smiles. "I'm really glad."

Sierra's pov

Ooh! Her and Mo have real chemistry! I walk quickly to the band and put a ten in the tip jar. "Could you play the dance by Garth Brooks?" He nods and tips his hat. "I'd be happy to."

Miranda's pov

I hear the singer playing the dance by Garth Brooks. Ooh this is my favorite slow song! "Hey, ya wanna dance?" I smile, my cheeks flaming up. "Sure." He pulls me onto the floor and I rest my head against his chest. He sings the song softly into my ear. I smile, enjoying this moment more than anything!

*later*

I get back home, nervous but happy. Me and Mo made out a little. I really like him. I heard guitar strumming in the living room. I walked in there and sat my purse down on the chair. Jason was playing guitar on the couch. "Had fun?" He asks. I nod and sit beside me. "You remember Mo Pitney right?" He nods. I take a deep breath. "I need some advice." "What kind of advice?" "Me and Mo met today in town and we danced... And we kissed... And I really like him. What should I do?" "Uh.... Does he like you?" "I think so. I'm really bad at telling these things but Sierra thinks we have chemistry." "Where is Sierra by the way?" "Talking on the phone out front."

Jason's pov

Hm. She's coming to me for advice? Me? Pretty dang cool. "I'd say trust your instincts. What's your heart telling you to do?" "You're talking to a girl who's only had one boyfriend when I was like sixteen in high school!" My eyes go wide. "Are you... Still a virgin?" She nods. Well that catches me off guard. "Hm... Well... If you really like him.... Don't lose him." I'm really not good at this. My daughters are still kids! I've never given advice on things like this! Just then Sierra walks in. She goes to Miranda's room. "I'm scared. I've never been good at dating. Everything is always so awkward." "Was it awkward today with Mo?" "Well not really. I was nervous but that was about it." "I think you should give Mo a chance but you tell me if he makes you uncomfortable in any way." "Ok. Thanks Jason." We hug. "Goodnight." I smile and wave and put my guitar up. I head to bed, still shocked. Man she gets more like my daughter everyday. I'm really lucky to have met her that day. I love that little girl like my own.
