“Did she give you the money?” Dave asked when Matt came through the door.

“Of course she did. I told you I had her eating out of the palm of my hand,” Matt said with a cocky twitch of his eyebrow.

“You lucky dog. We should all have a rich aunt. Where was she when your manager got you in financial trouble? Why didn’t you go to her then, instead of getting married to a stranger?”

“Dave, I guess I have too much pride to ask my mother’s favorite sister for money when I’m in trouble, but this is different. This is an investment for her. If this album does good, she’ll make a lot of money off the backer’s percentage I’m giving her, so I don’t feel bad about asking her to do this. Especially after all the good vibes we’ve gotten from these songs. I’m actually doing my aunt a big favor by getting her involved in my future. That is, if things go like they seem to be headed. I hope to hell I’m not going to be the cause of her losing money. But I did explain all of the ramifications of this gamble to her.”

“I do believe we’re on to something big, friend. I’m just glad I’m a part of this. This is going to be one of the major career comebacks of the decade. I can hardly wait to see your fans’ reaction.” Dave’s eyes were alight with excitement.

“Do you think my fans will accept me as a country artist? They were rock fans, you know.” A tinge of doubt sounded in Matt’s voice.

“Hey, now, don’t go get cold feet on me. Sure, they’ll accept you. They’re all older now, and a lot of them have probably switched to country music anyway. And besides that, this new country sound is a lot like the rock sound a few years ago. You wrote these songs, so they still sound like you, they just have a country twist. The whole world is going to love you. You’re going to be the next Garth Brooks!” Dave’s reassuring words restored Matt’s confidence, and he grinned.

“Thanks, Dave. I’m glad I have at least one fan.”
