**Chapter 49: Moonlit Serenade**

As the boat glided across the water, the sound of the waves and the music from the clearing grew fainter, replaced by the sweet scent of saltwater and the gentle lapping of the waves against the hull. Julie felt a sense of weightlessness, as if she and Yoongi were floating on a sea of possibility. Yoongi took his seat beside her, his arm wrapping around her shoulders as he pulled her close. "I wanted to show you this," he said, his voice low and husky, "the way the moonlight looks on the water. It's like the whole world is bathed in silver." Julie leaned into him, feeling the warmth of his body and the beat of his heart. She closed her eyes, letting the peacefulness of the moment wash over her. As they drifted across the water, she felt a sense of freedom, of release, as if anything was possible. Suddenly, Yoongi stood up, his eyes locked onto hers as he reached into his pocket and pulled out a small, intricately carved box. "I have one more surprise for you," he said, his voice filled with emotion. Julie's heart skipped a beat as she wondered what could be inside the box. She felt a sense of trepidation, of excitement, as Yoongi opened the lid, revealing a beautiful silver necklace with a small, delicate locket. "It's beautiful," Julie breathed, her eyes locked onto the necklace. Yoongi took the necklace out of the box and fastened it around her neck, his fingers brushing against her skin as he adjusted the clasp. "I wanted you to have something to remember this night by," he said, his voice filled with emotion. As he looked into her eyes, Julie felt a sense of tears pricking at the corners of her eyes. She reached up, touching the locket, feeling a sense of wonder and gratitude. Yoongi pulled her into his arms, his lips brushing against her ear. "I love you, Julie," he whispered, his voice filled with emotion. Julie's heart soared as she turned to face him, her lips meeting his in a soft, sweet kiss. As they kissed, the music from the clearing seemed to grow louder, the stars twinkling above like diamonds. As they pulled back, Yoongi smiled, his eyes sparkling with mischief. "One more thing," he said, pulling out a small speaker from his pocket and pressing play. The sound of a guitar drifted across the water, the music sweet and melancholy. Julie's eyes widened as she recognized the song, a beautiful ballad that Yoongi had written for her. As the music washed over them, Julie felt a sense of tears streaming down her face. She was overwhelmed with emotion, with love and gratitude for the man beside her. Yoongi pulled her into his arms, his voice singing the lyrics as they drifted across the water, under the moonlight, surrounded by the beauty of the night.
