Context: Post-Spring Unsprung. Apple confesses that she remembers everything and how she experienced it. And that also means what Raven had said to her.

Others: Pure fluff with a lot of angst. And this one is short. Also, I don't know how to even write the EAH "language", so I'm sorry about that.

I do not own Ever After High.

"I don't know what's wrong with you, but I do know the Apple White, the awesome Apple White that I know and love, would never ever want anything to happen to the school she loves!" Raven had said that and it spiralled in Apple White's mind. Apple was laying on her bed. That wasn't normal for her. It was the day after the carneval and her head was spinning with thoughts. She heard the door open and Raven Queen saying hi. Apple didn't answer back right away. She sighed and got up to sit. "What is it?" Raven asked while coming into Apple's view. "I remember everything I did. While I was 'cursed'." The blonde sighed.

She didn't dare to look up at Raven. "So? Everything was fixed and now everything is back to normal." Raven said and Apple heard her sit on the black and purple bed. "So? I ruined everything! That's not like me." Apple said anger coming out her voice. Raven chukled. "You do realise you were under a spell. It brought the worst out of everyone. Or the opposite." She said. Apple knew that Raven was speaking the truth. "But there's something else. I-I wasn't actually myself. I mean I was, but I wasn't." She said. "Yes, go on." Raven insisted. "I was the 'real' me inside of the horrible person. I couldn't hear the evil thoughts. Nor could I control my body. But I could control the thoughts." Apple explained. Raven didn't say aynthing, but Apple could picture her nodding slowly. "I understand." Raven said quietly. "Were you cold?" She asked softly. Apple was so confused she had to look to her friend. "What do you mean?" She said. "Were you cold, when you were under the spell?" Raven explained. Apple nodded. "How do you even know that?" She asked with too much curiousity. "I'd rather not talk about it." Raven said quietly and looked at her hands. Apple didn't want to push the girl so she just let it be.

They were quiet after that. Raven had put her headphones on and then fallen asleep. Apple was playing on her mirrorphone, but decided to put it away. She fell to her back and sighed. She looked at Raven. The girl was sleeping quietly and almost too elegantly for her to be a villan. Wich she clearly wasn't. Apple knew that. She had always known that, but she just didn't want to believe it at first. Raven was also very pretty. She was almost perfect. Apple had known that too when she first saw Raven. She cringed at the memory.

Apple found herself studying Raven's features. She had stared the girl's face for ever after. She snapped out of it when she found herself looking straight at the girl's eyes. "It's not very princess-like to stare, is it?" Raven asked with snark, that didn't surprise the blonde at all. "I'm sorry. I was lost in thought. I didn't mean to!" Apple apologized. "Apple, something's wrong. You always use only one apologetic phrase and neither of those was that one. What is it?" Raven asked, got up and walked to Apple's bed. Apple didn't move. Raven sat and took Apple's hands. "Please tell me. What is it?" She asked softly. Too softly to actually comfort Apple. "I-I don't know what's wrong." She said, knowing fully that lying wouldn't help. "I can see past your lies. Now, tell me." Raven sighed. Apple was quiet. The memories of what she had done to Raven while under the curse flying through her mind. And then came in Raven saying she loved her. "Do you love me in that way?" Apple asked quietly. "What?" Raven asked in clear confusion. "Yeah, didn't think so." Apple said before running out of thei shared room.

Apple was under the bleachers of the book-ball field. She had cried. She had cried and then became angry at herself. That didn't lead to anything but self-loathing and staying in her mind more than usual. She heard sparkles on the air and Kitty Cheshire was suddenly sitting next to her. "Oh, hi Kitty." Apple said and wiped away her tears. "Hi, Apple. What happened with Raven?" The half-cat asked. "What? How did you know?" The blonde asked. "Just tell me. I want to make some chaos before it's night." Kitty said. "I just misunderstood Raven. I- I thought she loved me. As more than a friend." Apple sighed. "Well, she totally does. You are so oblivious. I thought you'd be dating after the whole fiasco with the Legacy day." Kitty said. "What?" Apple blinked. Kitty just nodded and dissapeared with her grin leaving last.

Raven was there. She had appeared right after Kitty was gone. "Apple, I've been looking for you." The girl confessed and sat down next to Apple. "But why?" Apple asked. Raven sighed. "Because you're the awesome Apple White I know and love. Beacuse I do love you. I really do. And I know you probably don't want that. Your happily ever after is with Daring." She said. Apple was quiet. She was trying to process everything to be as clear as possible. "Well, I don't want that." Apple smiled and before Raven could apologize again she added: "Because I haven't been asked out yet. How would I know otherwise?" Apple smiled. Raven seemed reliefed. "Well, would you like to go on a date. With me?" Raven said, and somehow stammered through it. It was cute and Apple smiled. "Of course." She said and Raven stood up. She helped Apple to stand. Apple, forgetting everything about self-control, and her manners, kissed Raven. Raven tasted like, ironically, apples. The kiss was sweet, just like Raven. Apple could have stayed like that, but the lack of air made her back away. "Of course, because you are the awesome Raven Queen I know." Apple paused to kiss the girl once again. It was shorter but so sweet. "And love." Apple ended when she pulled back.
