They faced challenges and obstacles, but through it all, their love for each other only grew stronger. Jaekyung's demons began to fade away, replaced by a sense of peace and contentment that he had never known before. As they sat on the beach, watching the sun set over the ocean, Jaekyung turned to Michelle with a smile. "You know, I never thought I'd find someone like you," he said, his voice filled with emotion. "But here you are, and I couldn't be more grateful." Michelle's eyes sparkled with tears as she leaned in, her lips brushing against his. "I'm grateful too, Jaekyung," she whispered. "I love you, flaws and all." Jaekyung's heart swelled with love and adoration as he pulled her into his arms. "I love you too, Michelle," he said, his voice barely above a whisper. "Forever and always." As the sun dipped below the horizon, Jaekyung and Michelle sat there, wrapped in each other's arms, their love shining bright like a beacon in the darkness. They knew that they would face challenges in the future, but they were ready to face them together, as a team. Years went by, and their love continued to grow. They built a life together, filled with laughter, tears, and adventure. Jaekyung's past began to fade away, replaced by a bright and hopeful future. One day, as they sat on the beach, holding hands, and watching the sunset, Jaekyung turned to Michelle and said, "You know, I think it's time I made it official." Michelle's eyes sparkled with curiosity as Jaekyung pulled out a small box from his pocket. "What is it?" she asked, her voice barely above a whisper. Jaekyung's eyes locked onto hers as he opened the box, revealing a beautiful diamond ring. "Will you marry me, Michelle?" he asked, his voice filled with emotion. Tears of joy streamed down Michelle's face as she nodded eagerly. "Yes, yes, a million times yes!" she exclaimed, as Jaekyung slid the ring onto her finger. As they hugged, the sun dipped below the horizon, casting a golden glow over the ocean. Jaekyung and Michelle knew that their love would last a lifetime, and they were excited to see what the future held. Their wedding was a beautiful, intimate affair, surrounded by close friends and family. As they exchanged vows, Jaekyung and Michelle knew that they were meant to be together, forever and always. And so, they lived happily ever after, their love growing stronger with each passing day, a flame that would burn bright for all eternity.
