Veneer POV:
We get through the first half of the show perfectly. I rush backstage and am helped to change into a glittering black two-piece. The top looks like a butterfly, which I think is the cutest design ever.

Once I'm changed, I'm handed a little water before I'm led to the stairwell so I can get to the top floor and climb onto the hoop. I kiss Ritz goodbye before hurrying up the stairs. Once I'm at the top, a team helps me get onto the hoop safely.
My heart pounds hard as I dangle above the Rage Dome stage, but I honestly am really enjoying the adrenaline I feel. It's probably the troll high, but whatever it is, I'm excited. We go through the show until the end when it's time to showcase the last two songs.
My heart pounds and rattles in my chest as "Criminal" starts to play. It's my favorite song by far that we've added, and it gives me all the confidence I need to finish this show.
Ven: "He is a hustler, he's no good at all He is a loser; he's a bum, bum, bum, bum He lies, he bluffs, he's unreliable He is a sucker with a gun, gun, gun, gun."
I hold my arm around my waist as I shyly look at Ritz. He pretends to clean a fake gun, and I watch from afar. I run my hand across my chest and collarbone as I pretend to fantasize about him, then act like what I'm thinking is hard to ignore.
Ven: "I know you told me I should stay away I know you said he's just a dog astray He is a bad boy with a tainted heart And even I know this ain't smart."
I walk up to him and am pulled close roughly as I place my arms on his shoulders. He presses the gun against the back of my thigh as I sing to him. I turn my head and look at the crowd with an innocent look and smirk as he squeezes the back of my other thigh. If only my Mama could see me now.
Ven: "But Mama I'm in love with a criminal And this type of love isn't rational, it's physical Mama, please don't cry, I will be alright All reason aside, I just can't deny, I love the guy."
Kid Ritz walks away and goes to some of my backup dancers, pretending to look tough. Ritz takes off his hoodie, showing the blank tank he has on underneath. Our fans scream as he lifts his tank to wipe his mouth as he looks at me.
