Here is the next of our final couples: Humphrey and Apple! Honestly, I love this pair and love how them ending up together would show Apple just how wrong she was in the destiny conflict. Take a journey with Happle, y'all.


Stay-Rihanna and Mikky Ekko-4:01

Apple scrambled to find her shoes. She was most of the way dressed but, where had her shoes gone? She could hardly think straight after the events of last night.

"Are you okay?" Humphrey found Apple thrashing about his bedroom.

"Oh, Humphrey! You're back, I didn't think you would…" She started.

"My recording sesssion wrapped early, what's the rush?" He asked.

"I…I shouldn't have…I mean, I'm sorry. I ruined your night and now I'm in your way and…"

"Whoa, back it up, princess," Humphrey didn't like the sound of that, "Apple, I never said you were in my way."

"No but, I only accepted your advances last night because of the broken heart I've been dealing with and, that isn't fair to you," She looked down, "Humphrey, I'm so sorry…"

Gently, Humphrey kissed her forehead, "My fairest, I'm prepared to mend that little heart of yours, okay?"

"You don't have to…"

"Apple, I want to," He assured her, "Stay, please?"


Cause I Said So-Ne-Yo-3:49

"Here comes superstar rapper, Humphrey Dumpty and his date who is…Miss Apple White!?" Blondie looked at the camera in shock and did her best to run over to the couple.

"Humphrey, are you and Apple an item? Would you mind telling everyone at this star-studded spellebration how long you've been together?" The reporter tried to get a word.

"Sorry, Blondie," Humphrey said with a smirk, "Apple and I are not making any comments as of right now. You'll have to catch us after the Muse-ic Awards."

The pair entered the pre-show party and ordered some drinks. They laughed and talked over the drinks, happy to be avoiding the invasive chaos of the paparazzi.

"Apple, would you maybe wanna be on my next album cover?" Humphrey asked.

"I would love to!" Apple's face lit up. Never before had she been so proud to have seen that feeding into destiny hadn't been the way to go.


You Know That I'm No Good-Amy Winehouse-4:18

Apple White, former princess turned Evil Queen dipped another fruit into some poison and waited for it to soak. One of her staff could worry about boxing it and sending it out to whoever sent for it.

Years ago, especially back in high school, Apple had never thought that this was how she would end up. In fact, she had a short-lived romance with Humphrey Dumpty after Daring not only saved some other maiden who wasn't even Royal but, had decided that the non-Royal girl was the one for him.

"My Queen, you have a visitor," One of Apple's guards came into the room.

"Evil Queens don't get visitors," Apple corrected.

"Apple, you're not just an evil queen," Humphrey said as he pushed past Apple's guard.

"Humphrey…" Apple's eyes widened, "How did you find me? I…No one comes here, not since I was exiled after poisoning all of those princesses!"

"That aside, I still care about you very deeply," He began, "A twisted society turned you into this. You have a heart underneath your cold exterior even if you're denying it now."


Te Extraño-Xtreme-3:34

Those big kooky glasses, that eggheaded way of being of his…No!

Apple was not one for missing anyone! Let alone that guy.

If she was being perfectly honest with herself, Apple indeed, very deeply missed Humphrey Dumpty.

They weren't even an official item, she just stayed at his place sometimes, cried and ate ice cream.

Alright so, maybe he didn't have to take care of her like that. But, he did and, when he just held onto her without saying a word was what Apple was currently missing the most.

Had she fallen hard for Humphrey?

Of course not. That was preposterous. The world was going to turn around, every story would fall into place like it had to, Apple would have her pre-determined prince and —Who was she kidding?

The world had changed and, she was going to have to get that through her thick skull sooner than later. Humphrey was the only one being patient with her about it. When he got back from his tour, they were going to sit down and have a long talk.


Gold Digger-Kayne West feat. Jamie Foxx-3:40

"Is Apple White, nothing more than a fallen princess using the very man who's seemed to show her what love is after all? Details at 11!" Said the Fairy Tale News correspondent.

Humphrey grumbled as he turned off the television. Currently, Apple was at a photo shoot that he'd set up. She was going to be on his next album cover after all. Apple was most certainty not using Humphrey in any way!

He hated the fact that so many people, even some former friends from high school, thought so. Alright, he understood that Apple had been near impossible back then but, she'd grown a lot since then. Were they all really that reluctant to see it?

Maybe…But, he and Apple truly loved each other and, that was what mattered. He might have to make a call to that news station, though.


At Last-Etta James-3:04

Apple was letting Humphrey lead on the dance floor. She never thought that she would dance with him in a ballroom setting, let alone, at all.

But, this was nice to say the least. He knew how to move well despite his geeky exterior…This must be why Raven thought so much of Dexter. Geeky guys were deeper than the awkward looks they gave with their glasses on.

Maybe, just maybe, the pair could go beyond dancing at some point.

Humphrey smiled at Apple and seemed to catch her off guard and she blushed deeply. She reached up and circled her arms around his neck as he pulled her close and circled his arms around her waist.

It was never explicitly written that love could begin on a dance floor but, that just might be a fact. Apple was sure of it.


Jessie's Girl-Rick Springfield-3:19

The thing about Daring Charming was that, not only was he promised a happily ever after but, he was promised a perfect princess in the form of none other than the masterpiece of a woman who was Apple White.

Humphrey sighed at thinking about that, why did Daring Charming get everything? Sure, he might be pretty good friends with Dexter but, that didn't mean that he had to like Dexter's brother…

Not to mention, the fact that Daring was promised the beauty of Apple!

Daring was more in love with himself than he would ever be with any girl —especially a maiden as fair as Apple… Humphrey realized he'd examined that fact one too many times already but, he couldn't help it.

To him, Apple was just about the epitome of perfection and, he wanted nothing more than to make her his. After all, he would love and cherish her. Daring would probably only see her as some kind of trophy and never write her songs the way that Humphrey would.

While Humphrey was a bit shaky on the plan, he would make Apple his.


Tilt Ya Head Back-Nelly feat. Christina Aguilera-4:13

Long ago, Apple had submitted to the fact that love could be found on a dance floor and, she had been proven right. Initially, she was scared because such a thing was clearly going against her plans to fall in line with her destiny but the way the muse-ic and Humphrey's movements complimented hers on a dance floor was undeniable just like the attraction between them that eventually grew into something stronger.

'True love' was the best way to describe that stronger feeling.

"Apple, don't be afraid to go to give into the muse-ic," Humphrey offered a smile.

"But, Humphrey, this isn't going to be just any dance. This is going to be our wedding dance and…"

"And, we don't need to worry about rehearsing it because you'll look perfect no matter what," He comforted her to the best of his ability.

"Well, if you say so," She blushed a bit and then took his advice, to allow the muse-ic to take over.

Essentially, to stop thinking and to allow the muse-ic to do the rest. That was what had happened the first time that the pair had ever hit a dance floor together. This was what had brought out their kindred spirits and allowed for love to blossom between them. It was important to remember this feeling.


Throw Sum Mo'-Rae Sremmurd feat. Nicki Minaj and Young Thug-4:21

"No, no, no! Poppy, this is a hip-hop muse-ic extravaganza! I cannot go with my hair looking like, well…my hair," Apple sighed, "Aren't you supposed to be some sort of style expert?"

Poppy sighed and then she perked up when she realized that she had just the look in mind for Apple: make-up, clothes and all.

"We don't need to cut or color you hair but, we do need Ashlynn's help!" Poppy pulled Apple out of her chair and started for The Glass Slipper.

Later, that night, Humphrey was all decked out and ready to attend the Hip-Hop Muse-ic Awards and he was about to leave when he noticed that Apple was missing…

"Looking for me?" Apple appeared before him: She wore high-waisted black shorts, fish net stockings, large door knocker earrings, a bright gold crop top and, while it was simple, her hair was pulled back into a curly ponytail.

"Apple, you look just like…"

"Just like a dancer from your video?" She smirked as she grabbed a varsity jacket.

"Yeah but, way more beautiful," He made sure to add.

She giggled and was glad that her look complimented his. With that, they headed off.


Ain't No Other Man-Christina Aguilera-3:49

While Apple was no stranger to having many suitors, none of them could ever compare to her one and only: Humphrey Dumpty.

Despite him once having been just another passing face in the halls at Ever After High, he was everything Apple could ask for and more.

Humphrey genuinely listened to her when she spoke, kept her secrets, and above all, loved her with all his heart.

Such a love had only been a dream at one point to Apple. It was dare she say, a fairy tale.

Being with Humphrey was a proven way to make her smile and instantly bring her mood up if she happened to be feeling down.

Some princesses might not find him so easy on the eyes but, that was because they didn't know the trueness of his soul the way Apple did. She loved him glasses and all.

He was the one for Apple, it was as simple as that.


We've come to the end! And, time was definitely my enemy in a few places (it's easy to tell where) but, I love this couple and loved each and everything I wrote about them. I more love them as a couple because this again shows an end to the destiny conflict and, even though I do love me some evil Apple, I do also love a not-evil Apple and Humphrey mending her heart and her world because she's so scared of a world where destiny doesn't dictate everything. Only 5 more couples to go. Heh, who will it be? Don't worry, you'll find out soon enough!
