The sun rose on the dorms of Ever After High and focusing in on the dorm room of Holly and Poppy when Poppy woke up with a big smile on her face. Getting dressed she moved to the mirrors to get her hair done but decided to give her hair a new shade of purple and tried a new shade of lipstick. Looking to her bedside table her trusty frying pan was there. Picking it up she straps it to her belt.

Looking at herself in a mirror Poppy was examining herself to see if she missed anything when Holly walked by.

"My what's got you so cheerful this morning?" Holly asks.

"Well Poppy's today's the one-year anniversary of the day Roxas and I first kissed." Poppy smiles. "Remember the mission where we all went to Corona and met the parallel version of our mom."

"Oh yeah and you learned you could heal people with your hair like she could." Holly recalled.

"I want to make today special Holly, so much has happened to me since I met Roxas. I want to show him how much he means to me." Poppy said.

"Roybels to the end." Holly smiles.

"Exactly." Poppy said making the final touches and grabbing her Digivice. "Well see you later Holly." She walks out the door ready for a great day.


At the Wonderland Tea Shop, Roxas was hanging out with Lea, Daring, Dexter, Sparrow and Hopper.

"Man this place is crazy, but in a good way." Lea said looking around.

"Yeah, nothing to add a little color to your life than some Wonderland." Hopper said when Maddie comes by with a tray off tea and sweets.

"Here you go guys, drinks and sweets for all of you and some extra sugar for you." Maddie said pecking Roxas on the cheek.

"I still can't believe Maddie fell in love with you, how are you able to handle all her…well madness?" Hopper asks.

"I like Maddie's madness." Roxas shrugs when Poppy walks in and spots him.

"Hey Roxas!" Poppy said walking over.

"And here comes another one of Roxas' lucky ladies." Lea whispers.

"Hey Poppy what's up?" Roxas asks as Poppy moves her hair around as to get him to notice.

"What do you think?" Poppy asks.

"Uh…of what?" Roxas asks.

"You know I thought I'd do something nice for our special day." Poppy said.

"We have one?" Roxas asks causing the boys to cringe.

Poppy on the other hand was hurt by this. "D-Do I really mean that little to you? Well fine." Poppy said storming out.

"Uh what just happened?" Roxas asks.

"Uh Roxas let me break something to you. When talking to girls you gotta push the right buttons or things go wrong." Daring said.

"What happens if I push the wrong buttons?" Roxas asks.

"You get what just happened right there." Lea points.

"But I didn't see anything different about Poppy, she looks as great as she always does." Roxas said.

"That may be but when a girl asks you something like "do you like it" you say yes no matter what." Lea said.

"As for why else she's mad, she was angry because of today. Did something happen between you and Poppy on this day?" Daring asks.

"Uh I'm not sure." Roxas said.

"Wait a minute. Didn't you guys go to Corona around this time last year?" Hopper asks.

"Oh yeah and we met that parallel version of Rapunzel." Dexter said and instantly the memory of Poppy giving him his first kiss came back to him causing his eyes to widen.

"Oh no what do I do? I gotta apologize to Poppy." Roxas said standing up.

"Hold it Roxas." Daring said grabbing Roxas by his jacket. "You can't just go up to a girl and apologize."

"What do you mean?" Roxas asks.

"You gotta make Poppy feel like she's the most special girl in your life." Daring said.

"But she is, you know." Roxas said pointing to his heart.

"Not the point Roxas." Lea said.

"So what do I do?" Roxas asks.

"Don't worry buddy, you're about to get romantic advice from a Charming. No one is better at that than me." Daring said.

"We'll help too." Lea said as they huddled together to think of a plan.


That night Poppy was lying in her bed feeling like the absolute worst.

"That was my first kiss…I gave him my first kiss and he didn't even remember." Poppy sniffles when suddenly something hit her window alerting her.

Walking to the window she saw Roxas down below sitting on Garurumon.

"Poppy let down your hair!" Roxas calls out.

"Seriously? Was that really the best you got?" Garurumon asks.

"What? It's a classical reference to her story." Roxas said.

"Whatever." Garurumon rolls his eyes causing Poppy to giggle.

"What are you doing?" Poppy asks.

"I'm here to take you on a date. Come on down your ride awaits." Roxas said gesturing to Garurumon.

"At your service." Garurumon smiles.

"Alright I'll be right down." Poppy giggles.

Riding on Garurumon's back the two of them arrived at a nice restaurant where Garurumon turned back into Gabumon.

"Have fun you two." Gabumon said before going back into the Digivice.

"Well that was quite a ride." Poppy said as Roxas helps her down. "So I don't suppose you'll mind telling me why you did all this?"

"Well the truth is I didn't realize what this day meant to you and I want you to know how special you made me feel. I-I'm sorry." Roxas said.

"Well…I guess it's a start." Poppy grins.

"You forgive me?" Roxas asks.

"If the dinner goes well." Poppy teases.

Smiling Roxas leads her inside.

Sitting down at a nice table the two of them enjoyed their meal together as they shared stories.

"Remember when Ginger accidentally put too much hot sauce in her gumbo?" Poppy laughs.

"Oh yeah and Humphrey's face turned bright red." Roxas said as they laughed before calming down.

"Well Roxas, this might be one of the funnest dates I've ever been on." Poppy smiles.

"You know I still remember the day we met." Roxas said getting her attention. "You didn't have a clue what you wanted to do destiny wise and for some reason you thought to ask me for help."

"It was because you were the only student who didn't have a destiny, like me." Poppy said.

"Yeah and then I got you attacked by Heartless and you picked up a frying pan for the first time." Roxas chuckles.

"And I became a Roybel." Poppy said.

"We both did." Roxas added.


After dinner the two of them sat on hill overlooking Ever After High with Poppy leaning against his shoulder.

"Roxas tonight was amazing." Poppy sighs.

"I'm glad you think so." Roxas said as he paused to think. "Hey Poppy can I ask you something and you don't have to answer if it makes you feel uncomfortable."

"Uh sure what is it?"

"Well before we kissed in Corona you haled me with your mom's powers. How come you had them, but Holly didn't?"

This question hit Poppy to the core, she should tell Roxas her biggest secret or lie to him?

"Roxas if I tell you how you have to swear not to tell anyone." Poppy cringes.

"I promise." Roxas said.

"Holly's not the next Rapunzel…I am." Poppy admits shocking him.

"What? How is that even possible?" Roxas asks.

"Our birth certificates got mixed up, Holly and I have been hiding it so we could get the destiny she wants and I get…something else." Poppy said.

"Poppy." Roxas said as tears built up in Poppy's eyes.

"I don't want to give up being a Roybel. It was because of that choice I got to go on missions with you, be myself and have an amazing adventure and I thought if people found out what I really was you wouldn't want anything to do with me and I couldn't bear to lose you, I love you." Poppy said when Roxas pulls her into a hug.

"I love you too and of course I'll keep this secret." Roxas said looking her in the eyes. "Poppy whether you're the next Rapunzel or whatever it is you want to be it doesn't change how I feel about you. You're the girl I know I can always count on. You're brave, caring, and not to mention very beautiful." Roxas said causing her to blush.

"You really are the best boyfriend ever after." Poppy said.

Walking her back to her room Poppy kisses Roxas goodnight before she sits down in front of a mirror.

"I told him the truth and he still loves me." Poppy pauses as she takes out a brush and starts brushing her hair. "Flower gleam and glow, let your power shine, make the clock reverse, bring back what once was mine, what once was mine." As she sang her hair glowed gold and the light from it filled her will a warm fuzzy feeling inside. No matter what happens she'll get through it.
