Forced Marriage-GyuShua/MinShua

episode 18

Joshua looked at Mingyu with a mixture of concern and affection, touched deeply by Mingyu's honesty and vulnerability. He gently reached out and took Mingyu's hand in his own, giving it a reassuring squeeze.

"You silly boy," Joshua chuckled softly, "You don't have to do things just to please me. I care more about being with you than any roller coaster. Your happiness means everything to me."

Mingyu felt a wave of relief wash over him at Joshua's understanding. He smiled gratefully, feeling a surge of affection for the person who meant the world to him. As they walked away from the roller coaster, Mingyu kept a supportive arm around Joshua, silently grateful for his understanding and compassion.

They continued their day at the amusement park, exploring various rides and attractions. Mingyu found himself enjoying each moment, not just because of the thrill of the park but because of the joy he felt seeing Joshua's smile and hearing his infectious laughter.

Later in the afternoon, they settled near a quiet spot with a beautiful view of the park's gardens. Joshua leaned against Mingyu, resting his head on Mingyu's shoulder as they enjoyed the serene moment together.

"You know," Joshua began softly, breaking the comfortable silence, "I feel really lucky to have you in my life, Mingyu."

Mingyu turned to look at Joshua, his heart swelling with affection. "I feel the same way, Joshua. You've changed my life in ways I never imagined."

They shared a tender gaze, the unspoken words hanging between them. Mingyu leaned in slowly, pressing a gentle kiss to Joshua's lips, conveying all the love and gratitude he felt.

As the day drew to a close, they headed back to Mingyu's car, hands intertwined, hearts full. Driving back home, Mingyu couldn't help but reflect on how fortunate he was to have Joshua by his side. He realized that love wasn't just about grand gestures or extravagant dates—it was in the quiet moments, the shared laughter, and the simple joys of being together.

Arriving home, they settled into a comfortable routine, sharing stories and dreams late into the night. Mingyu held Joshua close, vowing silently to always protect and cherish the person who had captured his heart so completely.

And as they drifted off to sleep that night, Mingyu knew with unwavering certainty that he had found something truly special—a love that was genuine, deep, and worth every moment of fear faced, every obstacle overcome, and every joyful moment shared.

Their journey together was just beginning, filled with endless possibilities and a future bright with love and happiness.

As the days turned into weeks and then into months, Joshua and Mingyu's bond grew stronger. They spent their weekends exploring new places, trying out new hobbies, and simply enjoying each other's company. They found a rhythm in their everyday lives, one that was comfortable and filled with mutual respect and affection.

One weekend, Joshua had a surprise planned for Mingyu. He had been secretly taking cooking classes and was eager to prepare a special dinner for Mingyu. Joshua's excitement was palpable as he busily prepared in the kitchen, humming softly to himself.

When Mingyu arrived home from that evening, he was greeted by the delicious aroma of Joshua's culinary efforts. Joshua met him at the door, a proud smile on his face.

"What's all this?" Mingyu asked, a smile spreading across his face as he took in the beautifully set dining table and the array of dishes waiting for them.

"Just a little something I've been working on," Joshua said, leading Mingyu to the table. "I wanted to do something special for you."

Mingyu was touched by Joshua's thoughtfulness and the effort he had put into the meal. As they sat down to eat, Mingyu couldn't help but feel overwhelmed with gratitude and love for the man sitting across from him.

"This is amazing, Joshua," Mingyu said between bites. "I can't believe you did all this."

Joshua blushed, looking down at his plate. "I'm just glad you like it."

After dinner, they moved to the living room, where Joshua had set up a cozy space with blankets and pillows. They snuggled up together, enjoying a quiet evening of movies and conversation. As the night wore on, Joshua turned to Mingyu, his expression serious.

"Mingyu, there's something I want to ask you," he began, taking a deep breath. "We've been through a lot together, and I can't imagine my life without you. I know it's a bit soon, but... would you consider moving in with me?"

Mingyu's heart skipped a beat. He had been thinking about the same thing but hadn't been sure how to bring it up. Seeing the earnest look in Joshua's eyes, he felt a rush of happiness and certainty.

"I would love that, Joshua," Mingyu replied, leaning in to kiss him. "I can't think of anything better."

From that moment, their lives became even more intertwined. They found a new apartment together, one that was perfect for building their shared future. The process of moving in together was filled with laughter, playful arguments over furniture placement, and the joy of creating a home that reflected both of them.

As they settled into their new place, Joshua and Mingyu made a promise to each other: to always communicate openly, to support one another through thick and thin, and to never take their love for granted. Their journey was just beginning, and they were ready to face whatever came their way, knowing they had each other.

And so, as they stood in their new home, looking out at the city skyline, they held each other close, filled with hope and excitement for the future. Their love story was far from over; it was only the beginning of a beautiful, lifelong adventure.
