Venus and Sierra walk through the Odeum after hey had finished their challenges, the blonde with her arms crossed over her chest. Upon seeing a rock seemingly comfortable enough, Venus sits on it and groans as she looks up to see a statue of Alejandro. Her head falls on her hands, her elbows propped on her thighs. 

"Seriously?!"

She spats out to particularly no one as she hears the musical bell ring; music time. Her gaze falls on the Alejandro statue once again, eyes narrowed with annoyance. 

"No man is worth the aggravation~..." She starts singing, "That's ancient history, been there, done that!" She spats out, soon followed by Sierra's singing. 

"Who'd'ya think you're kiddin', he's the Earth and heaven to you. Try to keep it hidden, honey, I can see right through you. Girl, ya can't conceal it, I know how ya feel and who you're thinking of~"

"No chance, no way. I won't say it, no, no..."

"You swoon, you sigh. Why deny it, uh-oh."

"It's too cliche. I won't say I'm in love~" She pauses for a second as she walks, looking around at the different statues of him. "My head is screaming get a grip, girl~... unless you're dying to cry your heart out."

 "You keep on denying who you are and how you're feeling. Baby, I'm not buying...hon, I saw ya hit the ceiling. Face it like a grown-up when ya gonna own up that ya got, got, got it bad~" 

"No chance, now way! I won't say it, no, no." Venus trips over, falling into the arms of an Alejandro statue that seemed to be smiling down at her. She looks up at the stone face with a little spark in her eyes and a faint smile forming on her lips. 

"Give up, give in. Check the grin you're in love~" 

"This scene won't play... I won't say I'm in love~" She moves out from the statue and walks away as she rubs her temples with her eyes closed. 

"You're doin flips, read my lips, you're in love!" Sierra grins at Venus as she walks beside her. 

"You're way off base, I won't say it~ Get off my case! I won't say it..." Venus sings as she leans against the base of a statue. 

"Girl, don't be proud, It's okay, you're in love~..."

"Oh~ At least out loud, I won't say I'm in..." The blonde slowly looks up at the statue; a loving, random, couple. "Love..." She sighs, a small, almost unnoticeable, loving smile on her lips. 

Sierra squeals excitedly as she shakes her shoulders, startling Venus. She then lets go off her to do little jumps around her. "You're so in love! The fans are going to love this! Ahhh!" She screams exitedly.

"Fuck, I forgot we were on TV..." Venus runs a hand through her hair, her face pale and the look in her eyes was one of worry. "Focus, Venus! You came to win a million bucks, not to pull up a hunk! Get a hold of yourself!" She slaps her cheek, making her face go back to normal.

After voting off her best friend in the show, Venus sat in losers class glaring through the window in a corner; slightly away from the rest. She had been taking desicions following her heart and not her mind, something that rarely happaned and something she hated when it did. She takes a deep breath before scooting close to where Tyler was. 

"It's a pity we lost... but you did great anyway, Ty." She flashes him her characteristic friendly smile, to which he responds with a grateful one. "Thanks for trying to cheer me up, Venus." She was about to answer back when in that moment, through the corner of her eye, she sees Alejandro walking by; sight to which she clenches her fists. 

"Oh, it's nothing. Really."
