"Veneer! Get off your lazy ass and help crimp carry our stuff. Our ride is here and we have to go." velvet snarled, her hair swinging as she turned away. I sighed, standing up and grabbing my bag and a couple of velvet's. I looked around the room quickly to make sure nothing was left behind.Once there was nothing left behind I headed down the hallway and to the front door where the driver was awaiting us.
Velvet was already sitting in her seat as I opened the door and sat down beside her. "Liven up bro! We've still got another show tonight!" She said with excitement in her voice. I smiled. It was good to see her happy. "Let's go!" she shouted, pointing her fingure forward and into the driver's view. " Hurry! We've got a lot of stuff to do!"

I woke up to my alarm blaring in my ear as I tried to turn it off. I slowly got out of bed and grabbed an energy drink and a piece of toast. Put on a new pair of clothes and relaxed on the couch for a few minutes before I needed to head out for work. As I began to wake up I remembered the events of last night.
It felt like a dream.
I still can't process the fact that veneer had tried to invite me backstage. The way he looked at me felt unreal... too good to be true. I just wish I could've maybe gotten to hear what he had wanted to say. I hope I'll get the chance to talk to them again.
I stood up and grabbed my keys as I headed out to my car before I went crazy.
-at work-
As I got into work my boss's assistant came up to me asking how the concert was. I obviously let them know how jaw dropping their performance was and how the audience reacted. They were glad to hear knowing that they needed a new hit since the old stars were beginning to get dull.
-A few days later-
(Veneer's pov):
The other day someone had reached out to us saying how amazed they were of our sudden fame and performance. They worked for a big company and said that we would gain even more fans from being on their show. Velvet was smiling for hours constantly bringing it up any chance she had. The interview was set up quickly and was now only a few hours away.
I felt very nervous. It won't be my first time being in front of a lot of people but this is a very big thing for velvet and I don't want to screw it up.
Velvet was getting her makeup on and our outfits picked out. I wanted to stay out of her way so she could do her thing so I just did my makeup.
When Velvet was ready she couldn't wait another minute so we quickly headed out the door and to the address we were given. We eventually made it to the backstage of the set we were gonna be interviewed on. It was a pretty nice set up with a few red couches and some decor.
Velvet began to stress out over how long she had to wait and how she looked. I didn't want to listen to her yelling and pacing around so I snuck out of the room. I started to wander down the empty hallways as I kept a close eye on the time, making sure I would be back on time.
I turned a corner and entered a hallway where a couple of people were talking. I was about to spin around until I realized one of them looked familiar. I took a closer look and to my luck, it happened to be the person from the concert. I wanted to see them again but now that I had the opportunity I began to feel sick to my stomach. My face started to feel hot and my hands grew fidgety.
I took a deep breath and reminded myself that this was probably my only chance to say something. I had never felt this way about someone and I wasn't just gonna let it slide. I wasn't gonna wimp out and just regret that I didn't get to know them. I leaned against the wall with my arms crossed as waited for the two to finish their conversation. The person he was talking to began to walk away so I and began to walk over to him. "H-Hello?" I said, forcing out the words.
He looked over at me and his eyes grew slightly larger. "O-oh, hi." he said in an up-beat tone. I became a little flustered at the situation and blurted out, "What's your name?"
I cringed, hoping he'd ignore how random the question had sounded.
"Oh, my name's R-Ritz but everyone calls me kid ritz." He said with a little smile. I'm sure he could see how flustered I was. "I would ask you for your name but I-I already know who you are." He said rubbing the back of his neck, "I'm actually the one who recommended that they interviewed you and your sister."
"Oh, really? So do you work here?" I asked. "Yep, I-I'm actually just a rookie interviewer right now but I have plans of making it to the top." he said, showing a cute smile with pink cheeks.
"So, have you ever done an interview before?" I asked. "I've done interviews with some smaller artists but no one like y-you guys."
(Kid ritz pov):
"Well,... I want you to interview us!"
My eyes grew wide and I could feel my face get hot. "I-I don't know if they'd let me. You'd have to talk to my boss." I stuttered as I turned around. "I can take you to him." I said. He followed me as I tried to take little breaths. I don't want to look like a flustered idiot. He's just another person.
I opened the door to my boss's office. He was sitting at his desk, His sunglasses and purple hair covering his eyes. "What do you want?" he said with no emotion. "Veneer wanted to talk to you. Him and his sister are being interviewed in about an hour." Veneer walked in beside me, his hands were fidgeting as he spoke. "I'd like kid ritz to interview us on set." My boss lifted an eyebrow, "You do understand that we have more professional interviewers that are more than willing to do so."
Veneer took a deep breath, "I know... but I would prefer if you had him do it. I can pay you extra if that would make things better." My boss looked over at me. " I will allow it but there better not be any slip ups. I don't want to get a bad rep."
After a little more discussion, Veneer and I exited the room. "Why did you want me to interview you guys?" I Asked looking over at him.
"I-I just, well... uhm." He stuttered, acting all flustered.
I tried not to laugh but a little giggle escaped my lips. I looked up and his face was full on blushing.
"It's okay." I said with a little smile, "I'm gonna have to get going thought. I have to get ready for the interview and I'm sure you do too. I'm looking forward to working with you on set... Thanks for picking me as your interviewer... I really appreciate it." I turned around and began to head to the dressing room. The interview was gonna be starting soon and I had to get all my questions ready.
Once I got into the dressing room I looked into the mirror. My face began to get warm again and became a darker shade of purple. "I can't believe he wanted me to interview him." I said under my breath with a big grin on my face.
