Megan POV
The next day, I get a call from Tony to meet up with him for lunch. Soon as it was my lunch break, I drove to meet up with him. He texted me address earlier today. I put it in my phone and it took me to the most gorgeous parts of LA.

I arrive to the restaurant and Tony was already there waiting for me.

Megan: Hey.......
Tony: Hey.

I sit down and Tony is right in front of me.

Megan: So what did you want to talk to me about?
Tony: Oh yeah. So since we made a song I feel like it's only fit that the best way to introduce you to the fans is doing a music video and a photo shoot for your album cover.

I'm shocked. A music video and photoshoot?!

Megan: What?! I thought going on tour was gonna be it.
Tony: You see Megan, putting out a music video really gets you in the map. It's only fit if we do a music video and photoshoot your album.
Megan: W-What about my—
Tony: Don't worry. You have plenty of time to release the album and do music videos. But it's only fitting to keep you under my wing so that you can understand this.

Under his wing? Tony seems a bit controlling with this whole thing. I don't like it.

Megan: Tony I think you are going a little to overboard with this.
Tony: How? I'm just teaching you how to survive this life of being "famous".
Megan: I think I know the feeling a bit too well. My best friend is a fashion YouTube star. Sometimes I'm in her videos and people know me from her videos. For you it's different. You have been in the spotlight for a long time. You want to do what's pleasing to the fans and not for you. I'm wanting to do music because I love singing. I hope that my songs can touch someone. For you it's probably for the attention or something. It has me doubting that you are not seeing me for my talent and just seeing me for a benefit.

Tony POV
Woah. Megan is really serious. Have I really been controlling and a bit pushy? I take a deep breath to take in what she said. She's right.

Tony: You are right. I'm sorry.

Megan POV
I can tell he has to be sincere about it.

Tony: It's just that I have been so stressed out about tour and Peyton has been on my ass about finding an opening act for tour. I guess I was so desperate that I could use anyone. I'm really sorry.

I take a look at Tony and he did have guilt and frustration on is face. Peyton must have been giving him a hard time.

Megan: I accept your apology. I can understand about stress. I've been there. I was honestly kinda getting anxiety about this tour.
Tony: Really? Why?
Megan: I'm just nervous about performing in front of thousands of people.
Tony: Is it like doing YouTube?
Megan: No. It's a big difference. On YouTube you aren't as nervous on the camera. Plus, you can edit your mistakes.
Tony: Touché. You'll be fine performing on stage. My team will be there to help.
Megan: Should I be worried?
Tony: Haha. No. I'll make sure they treat you fair.
Megan: Thanks.

I began to think about doing a music video with Tony for the single. Doing one won't be a bad idea.

Megan: I'm down for doing the music video and the photoshoot by the way.
Tony: Awesome. We need to come up with ideas for the video for now and work on the photoshoot later.

The rest of lunch we discussed about how we are gonna do the video. We are trying to think of how can we make this pop song a fun video. Soon, it was time for me to go back to work. I told Tony that I'll let him know if I come up with an idea.
