Top Ten Most Adorable Couples

The last little bit I've been watching the TV show Once Upon A Time and it's spin off, and it's got me thinking about all my favorite TV and literature couples. These couples making reading and watching worth it. Their adorableness makes me smile and root for them through all the crappy things they have to live through. Now, because there are so many to choose from, I have to set down some ground rules. The first,
I can only chose one couple per franchise. The second, they have to actually elicit a response from me when they are together. e.g. squealing, hand-flailing, general fan-girling. Third, they can't be a real-life couple. That would make a different list. And the fourth, they have to actually end up together in the end.

So, here's the list of my top ten favorite adorable couples of TV and literature.

10. Cath and Levi, from Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell - This is one of my top favorite books of all time, and surprise! it's a contemporary novel. The realness of these two makes the adorableness even better and while it took them a bit to get together, once they were official it was just perfect.

9. Katie and Tomohiro, from Ink by Amanda Sun - This couple was just adorable, as are all the couples on this list. They started out antagonistic, but once they got to know each other, oh the sparks were so cute. It was especially great to see the very American Katie trying to come to terms with the very Japanese Tomo.

8. Cutter and Leetah, from Elfquest by Wendy and Richard Pini - These two had a very rough start. But once they reconciled and really got to know each other, they were so perfect together. The rough and the refined, the moon and the sun, the wild and the civilized. They were perfect opposites and yet so perfect for each other.

7. Ruby and Liam, from The Darkest Minds by Alexandra Bracken - Two slightly broken teens in a very broken world. The romance that happened between these two was so sweet and cute to watch, and it was truly heartbreaking to see them part. But they got back together because NOTHING stands in the way of true love. Not even having your memories stolen.

6. Amy and Rory, from Doctor Who - How can you say no to the man that waited 2,000 years to see his girl again? How can you say no to the woman who gave up all of time and space to be with her man the rest of her life? You can't.

5. Katy and Daemon, from The Lux Series by Jennifer L. Armentrout - This couple makes me giggle and fan-girl until I'm silly. It's hard not to enjoy reading about the girl who won't take the boy's crap and the boy who would burn down the world to make sure his girl is safe. And this boy definitely could do that, so no one had better stand in his way.

4.Alice and Cyrus, from Once Upon A Time In Wonderland - It was hard picking this couple because in the OUAT franchise there are more than a handful of couples worthy of this list. But of the couples, my favorite is by far Alice and Cyrus. They are an adorable couple together, and the faith they have in each other is amazing and something few get to enjoy.

3. Cha Bong-seon and Seo Jae-hee, from Me Too, Flower! - This couple went through so many ups and downs together it made all the ups that much more special and adorable. Especially since the two of them needed each other so much that when they weren't together it was hard to keep watching. But when they finally managed to get past all the crap standing in their way, the fan-girls cheered and the world celebrated another perfect couple.

2. Kim Boong-do and Choi Hee-jin, from Queen In-hyun's Man - Their meeting was fate, and their romance was adorable and heartbreaking and ended so wonderfully. A sword-wielding scholar from ancient Korea and a B-list Korean actress? You could never guess how right they were for each other, and how hard they fought to be together.

1. Alice and Hatter, from SyFy's Alice - I thought it would be hard picking a number one couple, but this was far from the truth. Because Alice and Hatter have always been my favorite couple and always will be. The way they go from strangers who are just using each other to further their own goals to the couple who trust each other as much as they did in the end, it was just beautiful and natural and wonderful and lots of other -fuls. And their reunion at the end? Nothing short of perfect. Buttercup and Wesley ain't got nothing on that kiss.
