The air was crisp and fresh as the sun began to set, casting a warm, golden hue over the intimate garden where the wedding ceremony was held. The flowers had been carefully arranged, the soft hum of conversation filled the air, and there was a sense of peaceful anticipation as guests gathered, eagerly awaiting the moment when Hairi and Sehun would become husband and wife.

Hairi stood in front of the mirror in her wedding dress, her hand resting lightly on her chest. The soft fabric shimmered in the light, the delicate lace tracing along the bodice. She couldn't believe this moment had arrived. It felt surreal, like a dream come true.

Behind her, Minji and Dongwoo stood, helping her adjust the veil and making sure everything was perfect. They had been by her side through it all-during the time travel, the heartache, the confusion. And now, here they were, watching as their best friend prepared to marry the love of her life.

"You look amazing, Hairi," Minji said softly, her eyes glistening with emotion. "Sehun's going to be speechless when he sees you."

Hairi smiled, her eyes welling with tears. "I never imagined this day would come. But now that it has, I feel... complete. Like all the pieces of my life finally fit together."

Dongwoo, ever the supportive friend, placed a gentle hand on her shoulder. "You deserve all of this, Hairi. Everything you've been through, everything you've fought for... it's led you here. To Sehun."

Hairi nodded, a quiet sigh escaping her lips. "I know. It's funny, isn't it? How time works. I thought I needed to fix everything, but really, I just needed to be patient and trust that the right moment would come."

Minji reached over and squeezed her hand. "And now that moment is here."

The ceremony was simple yet elegant, with just a small group of friends and family gathered under the clear sky. Hairi walked down the aisle, her heart racing with excitement and nervousness. Every step she took felt like it was bringing her closer to something real and beautiful. Sehun waited for her at the altar, his eyes locked on hers, filled with love and anticipation.

As she reached his side, Sehun's smile was soft and genuine, his hand gently taking hers in his. The officiant began the ceremony, but for a moment, everything else faded away. It was just the two of them, surrounded by their closest friends, standing on the edge of forever.

When it was time to exchange vows, Sehun spoke first. His voice was steady, filled with emotion. "Hairi, you've been my constant, my anchor. You've taught me to love without hesitation, to embrace the unknown, and to trust in the journey, no matter how difficult. I promise to walk with you through everything, to always be by your side, and to love you with all my heart, for as long as I live."

Hairi's eyes filled with tears as she listened to his words. She had been through so much to get here, and now, she was certain that this was where she belonged. "Sehun," she began, her voice trembling slightly, "you've shown me what real love is. You've given me the courage to face my fears, to let go of my past, and to trust in our future. I promise to always love you, to stand by you, and to build our dreams together. Forever and always."

With that, they exchanged rings, and the officiant declared them husband and wife. The crowd cheered, and Sehun took Hairi's face in his hands, gently kissing her lips. It was a kiss full of promises, full of love, and full of everything they had been through to get here.

As they pulled apart, Hairi smiled up at Sehun, her heart overflowing with happiness. "I love you."

"I love you more," Sehun replied, his eyes soft and sincere.

At the reception, the joyful atmosphere reached its peak when it came time for the bouquet toss. Hairi, giggling with excitement, turned her back to the crowd of eager women and tossed the bouquet high into the air.

Minji, standing near the back, was caught off guard when the bouquet sailed directly toward her. With a startled yelp, she reached out and caught it effortlessly.

The crowd erupted into cheers and laughter as Minji stood there, bouquet in hand, her face flushed with surprise. She turned instinctively to look at Dongwoo, who had been watching her from a few steps away.

Dongwoo's eyes widened, and his ears turned red as he realized the bouquet toss had caught everyone's attention-especially Minji's gaze. Clearing his throat awkwardly, he scratched the back of his neck. "Well, uh... congrats?"

Minji raised an eyebrow, a playful smirk tugging at her lips. "What's that look for, Dongwoo? You look like you're about to run for the hills."

Dongwoo laughed nervously, his voice a bit higher-pitched than usual. "Me? Run? Never. Just... didn't expect you to be the one catching it, that's all."

"Maybe it's fate," Minji teased, stepping closer. She held up the bouquet, the flowers trembling slightly in her hands. "Or maybe it's just good aim on Hairi's part."

Dongwoo's flustered expression deepened, but he managed to meet her eyes, his tone softening. "Fate or not, Minji, I think it suits you."

Minji's teasing demeanor faltered, replaced by a warm smile as she looked at him. "You think so?"

"I know so," Dongwoo said, his confidence returning as he reached out to brush a stray lock of hair from her face. "And if fate's got anything to do with it, maybe this is the start of something... amazing."

Minji felt her cheeks heat, her heart skipping a beat as she stared at him. For a moment, it felt like the entire world had melted away, leaving just the two of them standing there.

"Maybe," she whispered, her voice barely audible above the noise of the reception. "Maybe it is."

Dongwoo took a step closer, his voice low and sincere. "You deserve more than just a bouquet, Minji. You deserve to be loved, to have someone who will cherish you the way you deserve."

Minji's heart fluttered, and she looked up at him, her expression softening. "Dongwoo, you know how much I value us."

Dongwoo smiled, the intensity in his eyes deepening. "I've been waiting for the right moment to say this, Minji. I care about you-more than you know. I want to be the one who stands by your side, who makes you smile every day. Will you let me be that person?"

Minji's breath caught in her throat as she looked at him, the emotions swirling inside her. She had always known that there was something special between them, something unspoken but undeniable. And now, in this moment, she knew that she wanted to take the next step with him.

"I would love that," she whispered, her hand reaching out to take his. "I've been waiting for you to say that, Dongwoo."

They shared a tender kiss, soft and full of promise, the world around them disappearing for a moment. It felt like the beginning of something new, something beautiful.

Later that evening, after the reception had ended and the guests had gone home, Sehun and Hairi found themselves alone in their hotel room, the soft glow of the city lights shining through the windows. The weight of the day's emotions settled around them, and Hairi felt an overwhelming sense of peace.

Sehun pulled her into his arms, holding her close as they sat down on the couch. "It feels surreal, doesn't it?" he asked softly, his voice filled with wonder. "We're married, Hairi."

"I know," she whispered, resting her head against his chest. "It's like a dream come true. But it feels real, Sehun. It feels like I'm finally home."

They sat in comfortable silence for a moment, the quiet hum of the city outside mingling with the peaceful rhythm of their hearts. Everything had led them to this moment, and they were both content, knowing that their journey was just beginning.

Sehun gently lifted her chin, his eyes locking onto hers with an intensity that made her heart race. "I've waited for this moment for so long," he said softly, his voice hushed with emotion. "I want to make every second count."

Hairi's breath caught in her throat as he leaned closer, his lips brushing against hers in a soft, lingering kiss. It started slow, a gentle connection, but as their emotions surged, the kiss deepened, becoming more urgent, more desperate. Their hands tangled in each other's hair, pulling each other closer, as if the very act of being near one another was the only thing that mattered in the world.

The kiss was hot, full of longing, their hearts beating in sync, as though their souls had finally found each other after a lifetime of searching. Sehun's hands slid down to her waist, pulling her flush against him, as if he couldn't bear any distance between them. Hairi responded in kind, her fingers tracing the lines of his jaw, feeling the roughness of his stubble under her fingertips. Every touch, every kiss, felt like it was rewriting the pages of their love story.
When they finally pulled apart, breathless and flushed, they rested their foreheads together, eyes closed, savoring the closeness.

"Sehun," Hairi whispered, her voice hushed, almost reverent. "This feels like everything I've ever wanted."

"Me too," Sehun murmured, his hands gently cradling her face. "And we've got all the time in the world to make every moment count, Hairi."

As they sat there, tangled in each other's arms, the world outside faded away. In this moment, there was no past, no time travel, just the two of them-here, in the present, where they were meant to be.

In another room, Minji and Dongwoo sat together, quietly reflecting on the day. The glow of the moonlight illuminated their faces as they sat on the bed, close but not touching.

"I can't believe it," Minji said softly, her eyes twinkling. "Hairi and Sehun are finally together, and we're starting something new, too."

Dongwoo nodded, his voice warm. "Yeah, it feels like everything is falling into place. We've both been waiting for something real, something that feels right."

Minji turned to look at him, her gaze soft and tender. "I think we've found it, Dongwoo."

He smiled at her, his heart full. "I think we have."

And as the night stretched on, both pairs-Hairi and Sehun, Minji and Dongwoo-shared a quiet sense of contentment. They had faced the challenges of life, love, and time itself, and now, they could look forward to a future built on trust, commitment, and the joy of being together.

The journey was far from over, but for now, they had everything they needed. They had each other.
