Sugar Rush Productions

Chapter 3; Plight of the Rush- Stage Distractions

"You alright there Rancis?" asked Gloyd after seeing him in a daze.

Rancis shook his head as he came out of his daze "Yes I'm fine" he replied.

"It looked like you were in a bit of a daze there" Gloyd started "Are you sure your fine to go to Tapper's?

"Yes, I'm.." Rancis started before tripping over a bench.

"Cut! God damn it!" The director yelled before getting up and walking off set.

Gloyd and Swizzle helped Rancis to his feet.

"You alright man?" Swizzle asked.

Rancis nodded. "I actually wonder when we will finish this production with all the mess ups we have been having."

The Director

NO, I'm not saying anything to you and your fucking audience. Get out of my office!

Vanellope and Candlehead rush over from off stage.

"You alright Rancis?" Vanellope asked

Gloyd elbowed Rancis lightly, breaking him out of his daze.

"Y-yeah. Thanks for asking." he replied.

Candlehead looked over toward the door.

Candlehead

The Director is a very angry guy much of the time, but that reaction was quite unlike him.

"You think the Director is alright?" Candlehead asked.

"I'm sure he is fine." Swizzle said.

Gloyd looked around at the stage hands running around. "Maybe we should take a break."

The group nodded in agreement.

Rancis

Damn it, Gloyd, You had to suggest the girls join us.

Gloyd

Rancis will thank me later. I know that much.

The group walks outside of the studio into the fresh air. Gloyd pulls Rancis to the side when the girls looked away.

"Rancis, Ask her out." Gloyd whispers.

Rancis looks at Gloyd like he is crazy. "Hell no dude, she wont go for me." he whispered back.

Gloyd

Rancis seriously needs to grow a pair and ask Vanellope out. Anything that can think knows that he likes her.

"Rancis get your butt over there right now, What is the worst that can happen." Gloyd aggressively whispered.

"There is a lot of stuff that could happen." Rancis replied.

Gloyd sighs. "You go over there right now and ask her, or I will bring her over here myself."

"Fine, fine. Fuck." Rancis whispered.

Gloyd smiled and gave him a push in Vanellope's direction.

Rancis

Longest walk ever. God, it felt like hours.

Rancis walked up to Vanellope and Candlehead, who turned around to face him.

"Hey Rancis, Whats up?" Vanellope asked.

Rancis rubbed his head nervously.

Vanellope

Rancis can be a nervous wreck, but I still think he is cute. Hehe.

"Um, Would you like to go out with me?" he asked while trying to keep himself calm.

Rancis

Waiting for her answer was just as bad as asking her, but I knew that Gloyd and Swizzle would have my ass for backing down at that point.

Vanellope smiled, "I would love to."

Rancis felt a huge relief without showing it, but he still was shaking a bit. "Sweet."

Gloyd

"Sweet"? That's all he could say? Fucking "Sweet"?!

Vanellope

I wasn't showing it, but I was gitty as all hell inside. It took him long enough to ask me out.

Vanellope smiled with a giggle as Rancis walked back to the guys, Swizzle giving him a thumbs up and a wink.

Vanellope and Candlehead went back into the studio leaving the boys outside alone.

"Sweet dude? Are you kidding me?" Gloyd exclaimed.

Rancis lightly pushed him. "It was all I could say."

Swizzle walked up to the two of them and threw his arms around the two of them. "Doesn't matter, you have yourself a date dude. Congrats."

"Yeah, yeah I do." Rancis said with a smile.

The boys walked back into the studio, unaware that the Director was watching all this unfold.

"Hmm, this could work to my advantage." He said while holding a folder labeled "Director's Cut".
