Why is their unhappiness certain? Could you un-doom the romance, or do you feel it would be too much of a deus ex machina at this point?
(I like happy endings too~)

The entire fic lands them in a very very awkward situation with no easily obvious way out to happiness. I have been trying to find a way but I can't seem to find one that doesn't seem Deus ex machina. It might be my headspace at the moment.

Would be interested in people's answers anyway though.

Well, everything is sort of a lot right now, so it could just be that, but let's work with what we have.
Regardless of what my depression might tell me, if you live there's always the chance of improving your situation. Between the two options you've given, I'd say let them live on, however inescapable the problem might appear, because you (or the characters) might come up with a solution in a year's time. It also depends on the nature of the problem: are there cultural barriers to their relationship (such as if they are gay or interracial or of different classes)? It it a Duty Vs Love problem (such as if one is a criminal and the other a servant of the law)? Are they cursed? Are they married to other people? Every problem has a different solution, but that's all I've got for suggestions.
