Narrators POV?
The ballroom was crowded and calm but lively, the atmosphere was new to y/n and fancy. Well known citizens sit around the room drinking bubbly champagne reminiscing about how well they've done.

Y/n POV
Jerome and Barbra were off backstage getting ready for their performance. "Y/n come meet mr. Wayne and his friend, it's nice to meet you and you can call me Bruce" he was decently cute brown hair looks about 5,5 around my age maybe a year younger. I smiled and stuck my hand out and he gently took it and shook it "why don't you two get to know each other a little better? Oh actually Mr. Galav- Bruce was cut off by a voice coming from the stage" Hello everyone my name is Dr Lee Tompkins and I am speaking for tonight's fundraiser and tonight for the children's benefit we got a magician. Bruce was standing next to an older man that he seems to know Galvan and Tabitha disappeared and I was left standing alone, Jerome stepped out on stage with a fake beard and disguise and accent Barbra as well in disguise.
(Little time skip)
Jerome called up a man to help with a "trick" and said "no ones making it out of here alive" to which everyone laughed "bang" the man fell to the floor and everyone screamed Jerome laughed and massacre started men behind curtains came out and started shooting everyone I ran backstage and to the stage. "EVERYONE SIT" Jerome yelled within minuets cops were outside and sirens were going off, Jerome grabbed a phone out of his pants pocket and dialled a number, hey there jimbo he said into the phone and pulled a camera man towards him. I want $ 10,000 in cash by midnight a helicopter on the roof oh and I want a pony, Jerome ended the call laughing into the camera and just as frequent as it came he stopped the laughing "I think that well" "enough is enough Jerome" Galavan stepped up and walked towards Jerome, Jerome laughed and looked confused at galavan. "And who are you? Theo Galavan and I've had enough of you terrorizing these poor people, take me as a hostage but let these poor people go" He pleaded and played the act of the hero surprisingly well. Jerome knocked him out clean and laughed "now where's my favourite volunteer BRUCE WAYNE CALLING FOR BRUCE WAYNE" the guy Bruce was with before stood up "NO, YOU'LL NEVER GET TO HIM, Cmon Bruce it's about to get all butler brainy out here" Jerome threatened "alright shoot the butler, NO" Bruce stepped out of the curtains and went to the man. Jerome grabbed Bruce and held a small blade to his throat "GCPD" shot where fired and Jerome dropped down to avoid them, they stopped suddenly. I didn't see it coming, Theo got up "we are sick of your evil Jerome, and who's gonna stop me? You" he laughed at the thought. "Yes" he took Jeromes blade and plunged it into his neck. "Yo-you said I w-would be a- a star" Jerome clutched into Galavans suit.
"NOOOOOOOOOO" I ran out onto the stage and dropped down to Jerome "j-Jerome n-nonononono please please please y-you can't go I-I SOMEONE GET HELP PLEASE, d-doll I love you" his body went limp, cold his eyes closed and he had a smile on his face "NOOOOOOOO JEROME NONONONO PLEASE" everything went blurry and I felt nothing I saw the flashing lights of red and blue and screams I got up and ran before anyone could grab me "GET HER" I threw off my heels and picked up my dress I ran and ran and ran sobbing and shaking still remembering his touch his lips his laugh his eyes and his wicked smile. I ran to the other side of Gotham slums broken windows barley any people
I picked up glass and went to an apartment "wai-who are yo- I slit the persons throat and threw the body in the dumpster. There was blood over my dress my hair a mess I saw a record player and took my pick I sat on the floor curdled in a ball sobbing; whispering to myself I loved him I loved him I loved him I loved him I loved him.
