Significance (4th in the Encore!!! tour)

Chapter Eleven

Amy Glenn's POV

"No. No. I am not going in there, no, guys... Seriously, don't..."

They did.

Brighton and Meth literally just pushed me into the room where we were having a meeting with Poe's Raven. I had been hanging onto the door frame and everything!

There were eight pairs of eyes on me, watching as I righted myself and adjusted my pine green top. Meth rolled his eyes and pulled me further into the room, practically shoving me towards the object of my nerves. Brighton and meth started chatting with Josh, the only other guy in the room.

"Hi," I said shyly, holding out my hand to greet my role model. I had looked up to Raven Sanders since I was sixteen; she was my idol. Here I was, meeting her face-to-face as a performer, myself. This had to be a dream...

"Hi! Amy, right?" I nodded mutely, almost going into shock when she touched my hand. "I'm Raven Sanders, and these are my bandmates Athena and Artemis Toms, Harmony and Melody Jacobs, and Autumn Derrickson. I've heard a lot about you from Terra, she says you're really good," Raven commented.

"I'm not that good..." I said, brushing off the compliment shyly. "I could never even dream to be as good as Poe's Raven. Besides, it's not just me in the band; Brighton and Meth are the amazing ones, I just have my voice thrown in the mix." At this point, the guys had heard us talking about them and sauntered over. "Oh, Brighton, Meth, meet Poe's Raven." We went through introductions again, and the awkward fan girl in me passed. We became fast friends, which was good because we were going to be on tour with them for a few months...

"I heard you have a daughter, is she going to be joining us on tour?" Artemis asked, taking a seat at the long conference table.

"Yeah, she's only three so she will be spending a lot of time with the on tour nanny," I said, joining them as we all sat down. "What about your girls, Raven?"

"Miracle and Calypso are actually going to be turning two about mid-tour," Raven smiled, brushing her dark brown bangs out of her face. "Yay for the terrible twos. Maybe you and I can talk parenting tips later?"

Me? Tips for Raven Sanders? "I would be glad to help in any way I can." We exchanged grins as Josh and Terra called the meeting officially to order.

"Alright, it was so wonderful of you all to join us..." Josh began.

"Ignore him, this one's all me," Terra interrupted, flipping her blonde curls over her shoulder and making us all laugh. "This meeting is about itinerary, tour dates, and cities. Set lists are flexible and can be changed right up until you walk onto the stage. Sometimes our artists choose to do so afterward, but please try to avoid that." I nodded eagerly. "The plan is to start on the East Coast, take a bit of a detour because I scheduled you both for Helen appearances in L.A., and then come back East. We will then continue down the coast, go along the Southern border, loop into Tennessee, come back to the border to do a bit more, and then end in New York. Sound like a plan?" She passed around papers with cities and tentative dates.

Brighton was the first to finish looking over it and suggested a tiny change in dates, but all in all, the plan was solid. Terra really knew her stuff.

"You get a week long break when we are down in Florida in April, so don't worry about being overworked. I promise that will not happen on my watch," Terra assured us. "If you're sick, tell us and we will figure something out. Do not force yourself to perform, we are not a music factory like some of these other Studios and record labels. Transportation is taken care of, buses are already prepared, and you will be moving into them in a few days. Is that everything? Alright, let's get packing!"
