We have moved on from Dexter to his older brother...DARING CHARMING! Note: Most of my shippings come from tumblr. Just saying. I will however take suggestions.

Dapple.

Daring and Apple

Apple White and Daring Charming sat down with Lance Charming (another Charming not related to Daring) and a female intern with pretty auburn hair and hipster glasses (who could also be a Charming). They were at an interview for Fairytale Magazine (equivalent of People Magazine) for becoming Ever After's cutest and youngest couple.

The bad news was: Daring and Apple weren't a couple. Yet. They were waiting for after high school to do that. But they didn't want to let their fans down.

After the interview would be a photoshoot, and though both fairytales loved taking pictures, taking a pictures as a couple were different.

"Apple, I'd like you to meet my distant cousin, Charlotte." Daring said. Charlotte waved shyly, and she reminded Apple of Dexter. Awkward. "So you're related to Charlotte, but not Lance?" Apple asked. Darring nodded; this was giving her a headache.

Charlotte asked Apple a question first. The Fairest One of Them All rubbed her hands together and had to admit; she was nervous. She looked up into her prince's blue eyes, which were filled with confidence. Well, he was Daring Charming, and he was good with girls. Apple wasn't good at lying, but Daring insisted that they were just stretching the truth.

"Okay, Your Highness, first question. What are the positives for starting your relationship with Prince Daring so early?" Charlotte asked. Apple held her breath for 3 seconds, then recited what Daring had told her to say.

"Well Charlotte, I want to show my people that I can govern them one day, and uniting with my prince so early will show that we are good partners and we will be hexcellent leaders one day." Apple said, beaming at the camera.

Lance nodded and cleared his throat. "Prince Daring, this one is for you. What is Apple's best personality trait?" he questioned. Apple's blue eyes widened. Daring hadn't practiced for that one. Apple closed her eyes and hoped Daring would come up with an answer.

Daring's eyes wandered aimlessly around the room. "Well?" Bryant asked. Apple's head began to pound. She had a headache. This was bad. Very, very bad.

Daring finally spoke. "Apple is very...intelligent. Yes, intelligent. She's passing her classes with perfection. Nobody wants a queen who can't use her brain. Apple has brains, and man, she can use them!" Daring chuckled.

Apple almost wanted to face-palm herself. Well, at least he said she was smart. But she still loved him. Or at least...will love him.

The interview continued on, with questions they had actually rehearsed for. What was Daring's favorite sport? Um, hello, bookball. What was one of Apple's pet peeves? People who killed animals and used them for coats.

At the end, Lance and Charlotte and Daring and Apple's guards led them to the carriage that would take them to the cottage where the photoshoot would be held.

As soon as the couple stepped outside, they were mobbed by fans. The usual shouts such as "Apple! I love you!" and "Prince Daring, marry me!" and the occasional, "Dapple forever!" Apple had to laugh at that - Dapple. Daring and Apple.

Apple personally wished she had time to autograph pictures and take shelfies with her adoring subjects. She and Daring managed to shout, "We love you too!" before they were forced into the carriage.

Though he was her storybook prince, Apple needed some space from Daring to start planning on how this whole photoshoot was going to play off. She decided to sit at the far end of the carriage. How close would she have to be with Daring? Would they mess up? Would this be on the front cover of Fairytale?

Stop it. Apple told herself. You are Apple White. Daring Charming is your prince. Whatever you do, you have to it perfectly, because your destiny is on the line. Act like you're in love, even if you're not. Or at least, not yet. Okay. You're ready.

When they got there, Daring opened the door for Apple and she daintily stepped out. He told her hand and they both put smiles on their faces, and it was hard to tell if they were fake or real.

The two entered the cottage. It had a musty smell about it and it made Apple cringe. Lance noticed her and tried to assure her it was safe to breathe here.

They went up stairs, turned corners, took through storage rooms, until they finally got to their destination. Charlotte opened the door and they saw a busy crew setting things up. The background scenery was painted with swirls of blue and red.

Apple smiled at the crew, thanking them for their hard work and dedication. Charlotte pushed Apple and Daring towards an average-heighted, but burly man with a long twisty mustache. He was also balding. He wore a sullen expression on his face but as he approached the four, he began to speak with cheerfulness and pep.

He had a slight accent (in our world, it would be considered French). "Ah, Miss White, ! Bienvenue, bienvenue!" the man exclaimed.

Charlotte murmured into Apple's ear. "He's the King of Hearts from Wonderland. he and his wife...were on bad terms and he came to Ever After, leaving his wife and only daughter. Surely you know her. He reinvented himself to become Monsieur Hart. Don't bring it up! Oh, and only a handful of people know who he really is."

Monsieur Hart! The Monsieur Hart! The one that directed Always and Forever, a movie about The Little Mermaid's relationship with Prince Eric!?

Apple was in shock. Lizzie's dad was a director? She always knew her parents split up, but she never knew he came to Ever After and became a director!

"I am Monsieur Hart, director of many films and I also like to be in charge, of course. I was once 'eld back by someone I used to love,you zee... but never mind that! I am in charge now! Let us begin! Makeup!" Monsieur Hart called.

Apple didn;t have time to process all the information she had just received because she and Daring were being rushed to the dressing room.

Half and hour later, Apple entered the shooting area in a red and gold wraparound dress. He hair was in on large side where were her shoes? No one gave her any. Apple headed off to find Lance or Charlotte, but instead, they found her!

Lance hurriedly shoved a pair of white stilettos into Apple's hands. "Sorry, Princess, but Daring is having a fit. He was furious when we ran out of hairspray. Be right back!" And they two left Apple alone.

She quickly put on the shoes and headed towards the shoot. There was a cha with her name on it so she sat there and waited for Daring. She soon got bored, so she decided to hext Briar.

Apple : Hey, B. How is everything?

Briar: Nothing much. I'm in charge while Rumpelstiltskin goes on his daily coffee break, but everything has gone mad! Kitty is chasing Hopper- who's turned into a frog. Raven and Poppy are trying to get glue out of Holly's hair. Dexter just got shoved into Ashlynn who just-OH NO! GTG, HEXT YA L8R.

Apple sighed. She was nervous, but she missed school. She wa itching to go back to becoming a hexcellent queen. Monsieur Hart came and sat down next to Apple.

"Ah,Princess. Your prince loves his hair, doesn't he, eh?" Apple nodded, unsure of what to say. This was so unlike her!

"Don't worry. We all have zee the relationship problems. I had a very, very bossy wife. And I had a daughter, who was going to end up like her. I couldn't do it. But that proves I am a coward, for not standing up to my wife. Ah, my heart aches just thinking about my little girl." he sighed.

It was silent for a while.

"I'm sorry. But couldn't you try to contact her?" Apple asked. "I have no clue where she is. She could be in one of zee Wonderland schools. She could even be and Neverland, since they are related." Apple had to help this man.

"Is your daughter named Lizzie?" Apple asked. Monsieur Hart's head shot up and nodded eagerly. "I know where she is. She goes to Ever After High. She's one of my best friends."

"Really? Tell me about her!" The man didn't really know his daughter,so he wanted to know everything about her! After 15 minutes. he pulled Apple in for a hug.

"I shall send her a letter! Marty!" he called. A short goblin ran over to the two. "Get me some parchment,a feather and ink,please. Marty did as he was told, just as Daring, Lance, and Charlotte returned.

"Finally!" Monsieur Hart said with a flourish. His energy was rejuvenated. Apple smiled, happy to help. Daring's hair was combed down(same as Thronecoming) and wore a navy blue tweed jacket and a white shirt underneath complete with matching dress pants and a white and gold sash. Oh, and a white tie.

"Oh, well don't you look handsome!" Monsieur Hart exclaimed. "Come on you two, you've already wasted an hour!"

Apple nervously took Daring's hand and they went to the center. Lance and Charlotte reassured them. "You can do it guys. Just do whatever pose instructed and get on with it. We've got to go interview Lady Yaga."

The two people who were keeping Apple from running away just left. Oh great…

Apple and Daring held hands as Monsieur hart yelled, "TAKE ONE!"

"Okay, I want you to to look adoringly in the eyes. Look passionate. Apple, put your left hand on his shoulder. Daring put your hand on her waist. There we go, there we go!" Daring looked confident, but Apple felt sick. Why wasn't she feeling so nervous?

"TAKE TWO! Daring do you think you can lift Apple?" Daring nodded. "Of course." Apple's eyes widened as Daring lifted her up She stretched one had out into the air and pointed her toe down, looking like a ballerina. Apple closed her eyes and smiled. "No,Miss! Keep your eyes open!" Monsieur Hart said.

"TAKE THREE!" They did the same pose again. there were 5 other takes and Apple wasn't so nervous anymore. Until, the last one.

"Take Nine." Monsieur Hart said wearily. "I want passion and fierceness...so will a kiss do?" Apple shook her head wildly. She didn't want her first kiss with Daring to be this early! She also didn't want to do it in front of a camera!

"Princess, haven't you kissed him before? Aren't you courting?" Apple nodded. "Yes, but ah… never mind." Daring held her hand reassuringly. ?It's going to be okay." he whispered in her ear.

"Take Nine." Daring pulled Apple towards him and looked her in her eyes. She could do this. Apple smiled and leaned in, kissing him wit all the passion she had inside of her. It was a real, genuine kiss!

The whole crew began to clap and whistle. "Bravco! Bravo!" Monsieur Hart yelled. But suddenly the air began to feel chilly and thing started blowing everywhere.

"Save the pictures!" Monsieur hart called. "Marty- what's going on? Marty was being blown around in the air, unable to answer.

Apple was afraid. "Daring!" Daring held Apple close and they ducked, as a flying chair came at them.

"Is this cottage enchanted?" Daring asked, yelling. "I have no clue!" Apple retorted. At once, the wind stopped blowing, and everything settled into place. the cameramen checked to see if his camera was okay. Surprisingly, all the pictures were still there. Apple made sure her contacts were still in, and thankfully, they were.

The couple slowly got up. Monsieur Hart asked them if they were everyone seemed to be fine, Apple looked out of the corner of her eye and saw a tattered book. She wriggled out of daring's grasp and walked to the book.

Everyone watched cautiously as Apple picked up the book. It immediately flipped to the beginning of the book. there was picture and one word.

"Daring!" Daring rushed to see what was happening. He gasped when he saw it.

It was a picture of Apple and Daring with scepters in their right hand and holding hands with their left. Apple was wearing the outfit that she saw in the mirrors in Legacy Day, and so was Daring. (sorry, I am too lazy to write the descriptions takes up too much time.)

The word beneath read:

DAPPLE

Daring and Apple combined! What did this all mean? "What does it mean?" Daring asked. Apple felt like she knew. "It means our destinies will come true." That was Apple's true opinion, for no one knew the truth.

Apple and Daring hand-in-hand, went to to go tell Monsieur Hart what they saw. He smiled when they had finished. "Marvelous!" he exclaimed.

"No more jitters, Ms. White?" he asked.

"No more jitters, Monsieur Hart." she answered.

Sorry it took so long to update, BUT ack! I feel so bad for all you Dizzie fans because Daring never truly liked Lizzie...I'm sorry if I spoiled it for some of you, but you can check Kitty's diary on tumblr.! Okay, I'm truly sorry but BUNNY AND ALISTAIR ARE REAL PEOPLE! THEY ARE JUST STUCK IN WONDERLAND! I need to seriously chill. But until next time, see ya!

P.S. I know Monsieur is French, and obviously Lizzie's not French. But just for the fun of it, I wanted to make her dad French.
