This is DexterxBlondie and, while you all know that I love Dexter and Raven together, I will repeat that this fic is to show that all pairs are beautiful and, are about seeing the two characters in those pairs as being happy.

Addicted-Sisqó-4:50

Blondie giggled looking Dexter's way. He was a very captivating individual. Now, at first she didn't ever think to give him a chance. He was her friend for crying out loud and, just her cameraman. If she showed even a remote interest in him, it would complicate everything…

Until, she couldn't hold it in any longer. After a long shooting session one day, Blondie took the plunge and kissed him. When Dexter didn't push her away and kissed back, Blondie got the message.

The awkward way about him and those icy blue eyes made him one spell of a drug and, Blondie wouldn't dare quit him unless she had to. Actually, even then, she'd find a way to keep him by her side any way she could. He was definitely worth hanging onto. Plus, on top this now, they made quite the duo; him being her camera and her owning it in frnt of the camera. Yep, this was an addiction well-worth everything.

Everybody Talks-Neon Trees-2:59

"Oh boy…" Blondie forced herself to breathe as she and Dexter walked down the hallway together.

"Relax, Blondie," Dexter offered.

"How can you tell me to relax at a time like this? We're the latest gossip around here!" She answered back.

"So?" He didn't see how that was such a big deal.

"So? What do you mean so? Everyone is going to talk! Royals, Rebels and everyone else in between…Doesn't that bother you!?"

"No, not really," He opened his locker, "Besides, sometimes you gossip on your Mirrorcast."

"Well, yeah but, not about myself…"

"Spin it to make it positive, that's what I'd do," Dexter gave her one more smile before heading off to his class.

The Lazy Song-Bruno Mars-3:15

Partying all night had never been Dexter's style. However, since he started seeing Blondie, he'd found out that this was indeed, an integral part of the way she lived. They had spent all night out with Briar and various other fellow fairytales, all of whom were vague memories given all of the Chocolate Fairy Fly shots they'd taken the night before.

Honestly, all Dexter wanted to was lay here in bed next to Blondie. She seemed pretty passed out herself. If anything, Dexter would probably take it upon himself to close his eyes once more and get some much needed sleep. Passing out after a night of near-endless partying didn't quality as restful sleep…did it?

Whatever, it didn't matter. Being careful not to jostle the still sleeping blonde, Dexter settled himself back against his pillow and closed his eyes.

Don't-Ed Sheeran-3:36

"I'm Blondie Lockes and I'm out of this kingdom! Literally, that is. I'm here in the kingdom of…" Her voice tuned out after Dexter turned off the television.

Now, did he still have feelings for her? Sure, he wasn't about to deny that. Blondie had been very special to him but, he was having a more difficult time forgiving her than not.

Blondie had gotten the opportunity of a lifetime, having been asked to become an inter-kingdom storybook correspondent but, she hadn't told Dexter, let alone her friends, until after she'd disappeared to do so.

…did she really lack that much trust for her friends and her former boyfriend?

That was another thing Dexter was confused about…were they still together? Or, no?

Blondie was spotted at some big charity gala on the arm of a member of One Reflection but, that didn't necessarily mean anything.

Dexter had thought that what they had might have been more significant than that but, now he wasn't sure. Either way, he wasn't going to be bitter about it.

Shine Ya Light-Rita Ora-3:14

"That's it for tonight's Mirrorcast. I'm Blondie Lockes, signing off," Blondie gave her closing greeting and once it was recorded, Dexter shut down her Mirrorpad.

"Great job!" He complimented her as he handed back her Mirrorpad.

"Thanks," She smiled, "Hey, Dexter? Would you maybe wanna take a little walk with me?"

"Right now?"

"Right now," She nodded.

Allowing her to lead the way, Dexter was lead outside and he followed Blondie to the edge of the river. They both looked up at the moon.

"Wow…" He said.

"It looks beautiful…So, pure and blue, kind of like your eyes, uh…I mean…"

"B-Blondie," He was blushing, "Th-thanks!"

"Oh, you're welcome," She was blushing back.

Get Out of This Town-Carrie Underwood-3:02

"Honestly though, Dexter," Blondie was about to finish her argument, "What's keeping us here?"

"Well, I…" He tried to come up with something, "I…I don't know but, don't you have a story to…"

"No," She interrupted, "You've made me see that if we all go and fulfill our destines we can't have any fun…Besides, the bears don't love me the way I thought they did."

Dexter laughed at that, "Okay then, when do we leave?"

"Leave?" Her eyes widened in excitement, "I mean, I'm packed…are you?"

"I don't have much…Should we try tonight?"

"Tonight it is," She threw her arms around him, "Meet me at the train station by midnight! Onto parts unknown, we go!"

Salted Wound-Sia-4:28

"I'm here now," Blondie assured Dexter, "Are you okay? Were you all dealing with dragons and beasts during Basic Heroism today or…"

"Uh, Blondie?" Dexter began, "I tripped during Grimmnastics and I skidded my knee pretty hard on the track. We were just running laps."

"That's all?" She smiled in relief and turned the front-facing camera on her Microphone towards her, "This just in fellow fairytales, my boyfriend is a-okay! What was a predicted beast-inflicted injury turns out to be just the very opposite…I mean, he's made me fall head-over-heels, it's only natural he'd literally do the same thing to himself. Wrapping up his wound time, later!"

"Was that necessary?"

Blondie skirted around his question, "What matters is that you're okay and, that makes for a better story."

He shook his head at her but smiled all the while. She was something else under that mass of vibrant blonde curls.

Sugar We're Goin' Down-Fall Out Boy-3:36

Never was 'let me awkwardly fall in love with my female friend who I have a totally platonic relationship with' part of any plans that Dexter.

But, low and behold: before he knew it, he and Blondie were kissing in the rain like a couple in one of those cheesy romance flicks.

In fact, 'whirlwind romance' might a good way to describe what they had, even if it had happened gradually. He'd had plenty of unsuccessful conquests, she had experienced similar issues and one day, after complaining to one another, maybe they could be the ultimate fix to each other's problem and, they had been.

That was the idea of writing your own story, wasn't it? Taking the pre-written script and flipping it entirely? Well, if that was the way it worked, Dexter was very proud of himself and Blondie for figuring that out for themselves.

Case Of The Ex-Mya-4:14

A loud ping noise stirred Dexter from his sleep. He thought that Blondie had shut off her phone by now and so had he…

"Sorry, Dexter," Blondie quickly apologized, "It's uh…him again…"

Blondie's ex-boyfriend had been bothering her for a couple days now and even after telling him countless time that she and Dexter were serious about each other, this jerk would not let up.

"Do you want me to say something?" Dexter put on his glasses.

Now, he didn't want to be starting more trouble than he had to be but, the bothered expression on Blondie's face did not suit her. And, if that…that…terrible horrible guy was causing it, Dexter was going to be sure to put him in his place.

"You really don't…"

"I swear, if he makes you frown one more time I'll show him how a Charming slays a dragon!" Dexter then removed his glasses and slammed back down into his and Blondie's bed.

Talk To Me-Stevie Nicks-4:12

While Blondie did love to gab and gossip, she did also know how to keep her mouth shut when it came to secrets that her friends confided in her. Also, if Dexter ever needed it, she was more than willing to listen to anything he needed to get off his chest. Even if he was usually reluctant do so, having grown up being taught to bottle up his feelings and living in his older brother's shadow.

Dexter was very thankful for the way that he could let his walls come down with Blondie and didn't have to worry about her telling each and every detail to her friends.

Sure, she and Cupid had done a couple of joint-Mirrorcasts where they discussed confiding in one's significant other but, they'd left it at that and 'let those sessions stay between you and your significant other'.

We have come to the end of a chapter once again! I'm currently working on Dapple and Swan Theft but, this fic isn't stopping just yet. Thanks for checking it out!
