(AUTHOR'S POV)
Taehyung's eyes met Jennie's as she walked into his cozy seaside cafe, her sketchbook tucked under her arm. The warm sunlight dancing through the windows highlighted her striking features, captivating him.
"Welcome to Ocean Breeze," Taehyung said, his smile was warm. "What can I get you?"
"Just coffee, please," Jennie replied, her voice soft.
As he brewed her coffee, Taehyung noticed Jennie's gaze drifting out the window, toward the sea. "You're an artist, aren't you?" he asked.
Jennie's eyes widened in surprise. "How did you know?"
"Your eyes sparkle when you look at the ocean," Taehyung said with a chuckle. "I've seen that spark before."
Jennie's cheeks flushed. "I'm trying to find inspiration. This town is beautiful."
"Beauty's everywhere," Taehyung said, handing her the coffee. "Sometimes, you just need someone to point it out."
Their chance encounters became a staple of Jennie's days. Taehyung would sail her to hidden coves, sharing stories of the sea. Jennie's art flourished, inspired by the town's beauty and Taehyung's passion.
One fateful evening, as the stars twinkled above, Taehyung invited Jennie to join him on a midnight sail. "The ocean's magic is best seen under the stars," he said.
Jennie agreed, her heart racing.
As they sailed, the ocean's tranquility and their shared laughter created an undeniable connection.
"Tell me, Jennie," Taehyung said, his voice low, "what draws you to the ocean?"
"It's where I find peace," Jennie replied, her eyes locked on his. "And now, I think I've found another reason."
Taehyung's heart skipped a beat. "Oh?"
Jennie's smile was radiant. "You."
Taehyung's lips curved into a gentle smile. "I've been waiting for you, Jennie."
As the night wore on, their love blossomed like the sea roses that lined the shore, nurtured by serendipitous moments and shared passions.
As they sailed back to shore, the first hints of dawn painted the sky. Taehyung anchored the boat, his eyes never leaving Jennie's.
"I want to show you something," he said, his voice filled with excitement.
He led her to a secluded cove, hidden behind a cluster of rocks. The air was filled with the sweet scent of blooming sea roses.
"Wow," Jennie breathed. "This is breathtaking."
Taehyung smiled, taking her hand. "I knew you'd love it. I come here to clear my mind."
Jennie's eyes sparkled. "I can see why."
They sat together, watching the sunrise. The silence was comfortable, filled with the sound of waves gently lapping against the shore.
"Jennie," Taehyung said, his voice low, "I feel like I've known you forever."
Jennie's gaze met his. "I know exactly what you mean."
Taehyung's heart pounded as he leaned in, his lips brushing against hers. The kiss was soft, tender, and filled with promise.
Jennie's arms wrapped around him, deepening the kiss. The world around them melted away, leaving only the two of them, lost in the serendipity of their love.
Days turned into weeks, and their love continued to blossom. Taehyung showed Jennie the hidden gems of the town, and she shared her art with him.
One evening, as they sat on the beach, watching the stars, Jennie turned to Taehyung.
