Walker, Texas Ranger: The Answers are at Sea
Gage had never had a better time in his life. Same with Sydney. They danced and danced until they thought that their feet were going to fall off.
"Okay okay..." Gage said when they finally sat down, "So you're good at dancing..."
"Thank you!" Sydney with a 'I-told-you-so' kind of voice.
"Attiention ladies and gentlemen, to end tonight's party we have a dance contest. The judge will come around and if you're asked to take a seat please to so. The winners get their pictures taken and put in the hall of fame here on our ship. Are you ready?" A voice of a man boomed over a microphone.
Gage stood up and held out his hand to Sydney, "What'd you say Syd? Might as well give it a shot."
Sydney smirked, took his hand and hopped off the chair, "Let's win this thing."
And win it they did. As the couples left one by one, their confindance grew.
When they went on stage the man with the camra said, "You two make a great couple."
"Oh," Gage said, "We're no a couple."
"What'd you mean? Of course you are." The camra man said, fixing his carama's focus, "You two are in the honeymoon suite."
Before they could explain the man said, "Okay," he held the camra up to his face and said, "Why don't you kiss for the camra, huh?"
"I don't-" Sydney and Gage both started to say.
"Come on!" the man said playfully.
"No-" Sydney started to say but then Gage interuppted.
"Syd, you remember when you said that when you kiss me for real, I'd know?" Gage asked, "Well, I never got the chance to say, that if I ever kissed back you'd know."
Then Gage kissed Sydney the most passionate kiss in history.
And they had the picture to prove it.

As they walked back to their room at the end of the night they talked.
Gage finally got the nerve to say, "About that, downstairs..." Sydney knew what he was refering too.
"Yeah," Sydney said.
"Let's just-" Gage started, not knowing what to say next.
"Yeah," Sydney said.
"Good." Gage resolved, "I'm glad we talked about it."
"Yeah," Sydney said again. She felt like a dope saying the same thing over again but, at that moment she couldn't really speak.
When they got into the room neither of them spoke. After they took turns in the bathroom to change, shower and brush their teeth Gage got an extra blanket from the closet.
He decided to sleep on the couch that was directly across from the end of the bed.
They both were tucking themselves in and before they turned out the light Gage said, "Okay, so tomorrow we start poking around this place. See what's going on."
Sydney nodded.
"Okay." Gage said as he too nodded.
Things were definatly awkward.
To make things even more awkward, they both went to turn off the light switch and their hands met.
They clicked off the light and Gage went to the couch; Sydney to the bed.
****
The next morning, Saterday morning that is, Sydney was up first. When she woke up she saw Gage still sleeping on the couch.
'He looks even cuter when he's asleep.' Sydney thought to herself.
When Sydney got out of bed Gage got up as well. "Good morning." Gage said.
"You too." Sydney said.
Gage rubbed the sleep from his eyes and then looked at his watch.
After they both got dressed they went downstairs and ate some breakfast.
"Okay," Sydney turned to Gage and said as they walked amoung the other folks on the upper deck, "Let's snoop around alittle."
"Okay." Gage answered. "Where do we start?"
"I dom't know." Sydney answered, puzzled.
Then Gage cell phone rang.
"Hello?" He answered it. "Oh hey Walker...yeah...uh-huh...okay..."
Then Sydney heard Gage say, "So uh, what exactly are we suppose to be looking for? Oh okay....uh-huh....alright. Take care now...bye." Gage put away his phone.
"What did he say?" Sydney asked.
"Nothing." Gage answered.
"What?" Sydney asked, confused.
"He said that we are basicly here to wait around until something happens, or if we see something funny going on. We aren't actually looking for anything." Gage explained.
"Oh," Sydney said, a little surpirsed, "So, we just hang around?"
"Apparently." Gage answered.
"Well," Sydney said after a moment, "Let's go site seeing!" They laughed.
In a way they were both happy that they didn't have to actaully look around for anything, just to keep an eye out.
'And who knows,' thought Gage, 'By the end of this weekend...who knows?'
Gage had never had a better time in his life. Same with Sydney. They danced and danced until they thought that their feet were going to fall off.
