Chapter 4

After the performance the two rushed off stage, with Velvet mostly dragging Veneer behind her. Once out of public view Velvet started on Veneer "You absolute idiot! The crowd was more silent than usual and I know you've done something to upset them!" With each word she jabbed her finger into his chest, bringing shiny tears to Veneer's eyes. Noticing this Velvet quickly added,

"You better not cry now, you'll make your mascara run and ruin everything else for me." Veneer nodded quickly rubbed his eyes carefully incase his makeup got ruined. Velvet rolled her eyes at her brother, clearly annoyed and when she saw that the tears still hadn't disappeared she grabbed a tissue and basically scrubbed his eyes until they were gone. Veneer moved his head away.

"Now. Touch up your makeup and then we can get to the interview. You will not be saying anything about the mark in your cheek. Don't act stupid, just sit there and.. we'll just sit there." Then, she looked him up and down making a grimace as she looked up at his face. "Wow. You really do look like crap." He sniffed and held back more tears, he didn't want to show them incase she scrubbed at his eyes again.

(The interview)

Kidritz, the interviewer, Velvet and Veneer sat down. Veneer and Velvet next to each other and Kidritz opposite. The cameras were set and they began filming.

"So! Veneer and Velvet , we meet again!" Velvet rolled her eyes and Veneer didn't say anything just stared at Kidritz. There was an awkward pause for about 2 seconds until Kidritz cleared his throat and continued, "Your last concert was quite.. concerning. As you may of seen many fans of yours were filming." Another pause. Velvet spoke up, not really seemingly bothered. "Why? Was there anything wrong with it?" She asked in an annoyed tone. The interviewer shook his head, maybe she didn't understand? Or maybe didn't see?

"No! Of course not. It's just.. We saw something unusual." Veneer looked up and slightly at Velvet. "Like what?" She had a fake smile on her face.

"Maybe.. Veneer's makeup went wrong?" Kid suggested. "Wrong?" Velvet whipped her head round to look at Veneer. He looked quite hurt but didn't say anything about what Kidritz had said, and he noticed. Quickly thinking he said, "No.. no. Not like that! You look wonderful." Velvet then turned to Kidritz who had put a blush on Veneer's face. They smiled at each other for a bit until Velvet snapped her head to Kid and angrily said, "Enough! If I knew you were going to just flirt with him instead of interviewing ME then we will be leaving!"

"Come on Veneer! We are Leaving!" He didn't move immediately the two, interviewer and singer were still staring and blushing. He finally realised what she said and he got up, the smile still stuck to his face. He didn't remember the last time someone called him that, Velvet definitely wouldn't.
