Author's Note: I AM VERY VERY SORRY for not publishing this second oneshot. I was supposed to publish this on Christmas Day (December 25, 2016). But I got super massive writer's block, so I stopped writing. :-(

The reason why I didn't publish any chapters on my fanfictions and nearly-two-month hiatus as well, because I was in serious trouble on my Wattpad (last December 26, 2016)... until last Valentines Day (February 14, 2017), Ever After High on Instagram and Facebook posted the picture of my favorite EAH couple DexterXRaven that made me very happy and feel much better.

Anyway, here is the long-waited oneshot: It is about Hex-mas (Christmas) with DexterXRaven and DaringXCerise, SO ENJOY READING! Even now isn't Christmas time!

PS: This oneshot is INSPIRED by the DexterXRaven Oneshot Fanfic title Lipstick and Mistletoe by Writer2016.

The snows from the sky were falling to the ground. The moon shone over the buildings and the stars were twinkling in the sky. The cool wind whooshed that the chill sent down people's spines. The bells were jingling out of nowhere. The children and teenagers were caroling every house in the village. The snowmen were built by people on snowy areas. The series lights lightened everywhere.

It was Hex-mas Day at Ever After.

People celebrated Hex-mas every twenty-fifth day of December. Just hours ago, the students of Ever After High decorated the Grimmnasium (located inside the school, for the party) with laces in gold and red colors, Hex-mas bells and balls hanging everywhere, Hex-mas tree (with lights) placing in the center and other party supplies setting up there.

The students were heading to the Grimmnasium for the annual Hex-mas party. Some of them were wearing festive outfits but others were wearing casual as usual.

Melody Piper, daughter of Pied Piper was the DJ on the party. She was playing the music with some festive songs (and even remixes with disco-like) that everyone could dance with their friends together. Some of them were chatting each other, taking pictures with their friends or eating and drinking. So everyone had a great time.

Dexter, who was wearing blue tuxedo over black sweater with blue bow tie, blue jeans, black shoes and Hex-mas hat, was waiting for his girlfriend Raven. Next to him was his brother Daring Charming, first son of King Charming who was wearing outfit that similar to his brother's but his jeans was black, his sweater was white, his tuxedo was dark gray and he wasn't wearing Hex-mas hat but his signature crown instead. He was also waiting for his girlfriend Cerise Hood, daughter of Red Riding Hood.

The two Charming brothers didn't have good time for a while until their girlfriends would arrive, but Dexter was playing games on his mirrorphone while Daring was admiring on his looks by looking at his mirror.

"Where the hex is Raven?" Dexter thought himself.

"Where is Cer—" Daring thought.

"Hey, Charming brothers!" someone said to interrupt what the boys were doing.

Turning around, Dexter and Daring couldn't believe what they looked at: Their girlfriends Raven and Cerise wearing something that looked special.

Raven was wearing knee-length-and-sleeveless purple dress with mini-star-shaped glitters on it, silver reindeer-shaped earrings, Hex-mas hat just like her boyfriend, light purple leggings with mini-Hex-mas-tree prints on them and black high-heeled shoes. Also, her hair had two dark-purple-highlighted ponytails on both sides.

And Cerise was wearing long-sleeves-and-knee-length red dress with mini-Hex-mas-trees prints on it (just like Raven's worn leggings) and black high-heeled shoes. She didn't wear cloak and hood but Hex-mas hat instead. However, her wolf ears were hidden under her hat. But the Charming brothers already knew Cerise's dark secret.

"Wow... Just wow!" Daring whispered. "So beautiful."

"You look gort! Er, I mean great," Dexter said. "You both look great, girls."

"Thank you," Raven said, smiling at the boys.

"Yeah, thanks," Cerise said, also smiling at them. "You guys look gorgeous, by the way."

"Thank you, Cerise. Charming brothers always look gorgeous," Daring said, then nudging at his younger brother. "Right, little bro?"

"Of course," Dexter said.

"Anyway," Raven said, grabbing her mirrorphone. "Let's take a spellfie!"

Then four of them gathered together where Dexter was on Raven's left side, Cerise was on Raven's right side and Daring was next to his girlfriend. Then Raven took few pictures of them together with their smiles and even funny face expressions.

"Okay, guys," Cerise said excitedly. "Let's dance!"

She grabbed Daring's hand and Raven grabbed Dexter's to the dance floor. And they started dancing.

Swaying, jumping, shaking, stomping, facing each other and other dance moves that they were fit to the songs which Melody played, everyone in the dance floor had so much fun.

Suddenly, Dexter reminded just a moment that it was now time to give his girlfriend a gift. So he stopped dancing, then grabbed Raven's hand and pulled her in surprise.

"Dex, what the hex?" she said loudly.

"I think it's time, Rae," he replied.

"Time for what?"

He didn't answer but was just going outside the Grimmnasium with her. And then they stopped at the quiet place where the trees with lights were there. Not to mention there were some couples having romance there.

"Okay, what the hex is going on, Dex?" she asked, crossing her arms.

"It's time for giving you a present, of course," he said.

"Oh! Okay, go on."

"But before that, I have to say something."

"Sure. What is it?"

Taking a deep breath, he said, "Merry Hex-mas, Raven Queen."

"Merry Hex-mas to you too, Dexter Charming," she said. "So… that's it?"

"Erm… well…" he said nervously while scratching the back of his head.

"Save it, Dex," she said, then giggling at his nervousness. "I know you're being nervous around me alone sometime."

"I guess so. Anyway…" He pulled out the small gift in purple color, then gave it to his girlfriend and said, "Your gift, Rae."

She opened the gift and her eyes widened in disbelief as what she saw the present. Her gift wasn't one, but two presents: the silver necklace with a purple gem (amethyst) and the silver locket.

"Woah! Two gifts for me?" she gasped. "I thought only one, but you shouldn't have."

"Maybe I shouldn't, but I seriously wanted to give you the two gifts like them, Raven."

"Uh… I don't know what to say…"

"What? Can't you say 'thank you' to me?" he asked sarcastically, raising his eyebrow.

"Thank you, Dex!" she exclaimed and gave him a big hug. "Thank you so much, Dexter."

"You're welcome, Rae," he said as he hugged her back while smiling.

"So uh… mind if you wear the necklace I gave you?" he asked her.

"Okay, sure," she said, then pulling out the necklace and wore it. "Wow! It's beautiful, Dex."

"I know! You can open the locket, Rae."

Nodding, she pulled out the locket and open it. But she saw nothing on it.

"Um… Dex," she said in confusion.

"What's wrong?"

"I don't understand for this locket. There is no picture."

"Oh! That… Well, that locket is more than a locket."

"What do you mean 'more than a locket'?" she asked, still confusing.

"Just look at it, Rae."

As Raven looked at the locket, moments later, she saw the violet swirl appeared on it. As the swirl faded, the picture appeared on the locket that made her let out of her gasp in disbelief. It was the picture of him and her.

"It's us, Dex!" she smiled.

"I know!" Dexter smiled back. "But there's more."

She looked at the locket again. The picture on it changed into another one. The picture of her alone appeared, next was him alone, then next was them but different picture and more. But most of the pictures there are usually them together in their throwback memories.

"More pictures? But mostly us? This is amazing!" she said happily. "But it means…"

"…that locket is the enchanted one. So yes," he finished, then grinning at her.

"But where did you buy this?"

"In the Enchanted Jewel Store, Rae. Well, the owner of the store told me that enchanted locket is pretty rare."

"So you bought this for me. But isn't this expensive?" she asked curiously.

"Fairy expensive," he said as Raven's jaw in disbelief.

All of sudden, she glared at her boyfriend and slapped him across the face.

"Ow! What was that for?!" he exclaimed while rubbing his red face.

"For buying this fairy expensive thing, Dexterous!" she said with an anger tone, holding the enchanted locket. "You can't buy this expensive thing and give it to me!"

"Hello? I'm the member of the Charming Family. And Charming Families are very rich," he pointed out. "Besides, I asked my parents to buy that rare locket and they said yes."

"Oh! Um…"

"But seriously, that locket is only for you, Rae. So I want you to have it for your life."

"Okay. I'm so sorry for slapping you, Dex."

"It's all right, Rae. And I love you."

"I love you too," she said before kissing him. "I almost forgot! It's time for your gift, Dexter."

"Really? Where is it?" he asked excitedly.

"Watch this!" she said while rubbing her hands together.

Closing her eyes, she was wiggling her fingers to conjure the magic and the purple mist from her hands swished softly and nicely towards both of his hands and the small blue box appeared over his hands.

"A gift for me?" Dexter said while widening his eyes in disbelief.

"Yep! You can open it now," Raven said, smiling at him.

Then he opened his gift and but felt disappointed as what he saw his present.

"Glasses?" he said with a sad tone as he was holding the black-trimmed glasses (but similar to his glasses he was wearing now). "But I have few spare…"

"You think that glasses is just an ordinary?" she interrupted him, then crossing her arms while smirking. "That is more than ordinary, Dex. So just wear them, if you please."

"All right!" he sighed, then taking off his usual glasses.

Before he put his new glasses, she saw his baby blue eyes but almost swooned. She remembered that every time he would take off his glasses, the girls would swoon when they saw his enchanted eyes. But Raven rarely swooned at him.

Then he wore his new glasses. But what would Dexter think about his new glasses from his girlfriend? Was it true that the said glasses was more than ordinary like she said? Probably the enchanted one?

"Well?" she said, raising her eyebrow.

"Uh…" he began, but gasped softly in disbelief. "It seems this glasses can change the brightness?"

He could see everything but her in a better vision.

"Yes," she said while smiling. "You can also zoom in and out, and even adjust the blurriness for the better of your vision, Dex."

Now he tried to zoom in to see Raven's purple eyes. Then he looked at her shiny purple lips with a big smile.

"Woah! So cool!" he exclaimed. "But let me guess: Are these glasses enchanted?"

"That's right," she replied. "I put some spells on them, but the enchantment is permanent."

"Amazing! Thank you, Rae," he said happily, then the color of glasses changed into clear transparent.

"You're welcome. I almost forgot! Those enchanted glasses are also indestructible, Dex."

"That's great!"

"And… There's another gift. Not only for you, but for us!"

"What is it?"

Before she conjured a magic, she looked around to see those couple having kiss on every tree (with a plant hanging against the branch of every tree) but it seemed that there were no more vacant trees that Dexter and Raven could kiss each other, not to mention she saw Cerise and Daring kissing each other under the plant.

Snapping her fingers, she created the tree behind her boyfriend with her magic and they looked up together to see a plant hanging against the branches of the said tree (just like others).

"Wait a spell, is that…?" he said in disbelief.

"Yes, Dex," she said with a grin. "The mistletoe."

Before Dexter would say something, Raven grabbed his face and pressed her lips against his. Now they were kissing under the mistletoe.

Widening his eyes, feeling his heart beating faster, feeling the fireworks igniting out of nowhere, noticing the taste of grapes from his girlfriend's lips, he liked it. No, but he actually loved it! However, it was the first time of them getting experienced to have kiss under the mistletoe on Hex-mas Day.

Little they know, Cerise and Daring saw them.

"And so, now they are kissing each other…" Daring chuckled as he and his girlfriend looked at Dexter and Raven still kissing each other.

"…under the mistletoe," Cerise finished, smiling at her boyfriend.

"Yeah, thanks for the mirror as a gift, Cerise," he said as he was holding his new mirror in which was portable one (just like his signature mirror) but his new mirror was platinum-color. She told him moments ago that the said mirror was less fragile than his usual mirror.

"And thanks for these earrings as a gift, Daring," she said as the earrings in which wolf head-shape and golden color were on her hands.

Cerise never had experience to wear any earrings because of her wolf ears instead of human ears. Daring couldn't wait to see his girlfriend wearing earrings he bought for her, so he might think that Cerise would look much beautiful.

"You're welcome," they said in unison, then laughing at each other.

"So uh… before we're going back to the party, let's have a kiss one more time," he said.

She nodded and they kissed each other again under the mistletoe. After one-minute kiss, they went back to the party.

Meanwhile, on Dexter and Raven's spot, after kissing each other, she saw the blush on her boyfriend's cheeks. Then she grabbed him by the face again and gave him more and more kisses (still under the mistletoe); not just on his lips, but also on his cheeks and forehead. Not to mention the purple lipstick marks from Raven's lips were printed over his face.

When she saw his face, she giggled at her sight but her boyfriend was confused.

"Um… What's so funny?" he asked.

Instead of answering his question, she grabbed her mirrorphone and took a picture. Still giggling, she showed him the picture of himself.

"Really, Raven?" he said, getting blushed. "Lipstick marks on my face?"

"Yeah, but you look so funny… and cute," she said, giving him a smirk. "Don't worry, I'll clean you up."

Then she snapped her fingers to remove the said marks and some stains on his face.

"So let's go back to the party," he said.

"Okay," she said as she nodded.

They went back together to the party while holding each other's hands to have some fun with their friends. After all, partygoers were enjoyed on Hex-mas Day party until midnight.
