"Hey Candlehead, I heard there's gonna be a new girl enrolling in the school," Rancis Fluggerbutter said, shutting his locker which was decorated in hues of brown, orange, and light brown, which was right next to his best girl-friend, Candlehead. Her locker was pink with brown and green hearts. It was Friday, the last period of the day.

"Really?" Candlehead said, shouldering her backpack. At the Sugar Rush Academy, she was the second best racer besides her best friend, Taffyta Muttonfudge. "It's no skin off MY back. It's not like she's got anything on me."

Truth to be told, Candlehead, although normally extremely nice and easily controlled, was extremely protective of Rancis, and would snap at any girl who talked to him. But it's not like he was going to fall in love with some new girl right off the bat.

"When is she coming?" Candlehead asked, skipping down the hallway with Rancis. Rancis told her that she looked cute whenever she skipped.

"Monday, actually," Rancis said.

"Can't wait to meet her!" Candlehead beamed. She actually liked making friends, but the only thing she was worried about was the thought of them taking Rancis away from her. Candlehead gave Rancis a little wink as they said goodbye and headed home.

Monday Morning

"Class, let me introduce to you our new student, miss Vanellope Von Schweetz!" Miss Grannysmith (who is based off of apple pie), the teacher of and retired racer of Sugar Rush Academy, said, welcoming a shy girl with black hair which was sprinkled with candy tied up with a piece of licorice into the room. Her hands were stuffed into the pockets of her teal hoodie, and she looked at the ground as if there was a book there.

"Uh, hi," Vanellope said, waving her hand out then quickly sticking it back in her pocket. Candlehead was rather in shock. This girl reminded her of herself when she first enrolled in the academy in 2nd grade; shy and quiet. But then she met Rancis and she started acting like herself. He hung out with her and made sure she was never lonely. It felt so good to have a friend who she felt actually cared about her. It didn't take very long to fall in love with Rancis. She glanced over at Rancis.

"Hmm," he said, resting his chin on the back of his hand. He looked a bit... Fascinated. His eyes looked dreamy, like he was staring at the most beautiful cart he had ever seen. Candlehead's eyes flashed with irritation. But then she calmed herself and smiled. Maybe he just reminded her of someone he knew. There was no way Rancis was starting to like this girl he hardly even knew. Or was he?
