Miranda and Gary had just woken up and Miranda could see how Gary gazed at her. He tried to quickly coming up with something to say but when he was going to say something she talked instead.

"What happened last night?" Miranda said looking confused at Gary.

"Uhm… We.. You don't remember?" Gary asked.

"Yes, I remember some stuff, I remember saying we should sleep together, oh tell me we didn't sleep together" Miranda put her face in her hands hoping that they didn't have sex last night. She had a small hangover but it would have been gone in some hours.

"Uhm, no, we didn't , you kissed me by mistake and I told you I had sexual thoughts about you many years ago but that I couldn't admit it back then" He said as she looked up and looked at him with curious eyes like she wanted him to carry on.

"Are you sure that's all that happened?" Miranda asked to find out more.

"No, you freaked out over Rose and you dared me to snogg you and we.. " Gary stopped.

"We did WHAT Gary?"

"We kind of snogged."

"So.. Nothing more happened?"

"No, why? You don't want that or what?"

"That's not what I'm saying, I've been wanting you for 12 years but I don't want it to happen over a night when we won't remember it the next morning.."

"So, you're saying you wanted me at Uni?"

"Oh wasn't it quite obvious? I mean I was… I was having a huge crush on you and you knew that"

"And now?"

"I'm.. I feel something special for you, I do, yes, It's a crush for sure, oh sorry, now I'm embarrassed" She said covering her face with her hands.

"Don't be, I just wanted to know because, I really like you too, like more than a friend"

"Really?"

"Yes, dare to snogg me Miranda?" He said winking at her.

"Oh shush please" Miranda slapped his arm gently and was looking at him begging him to stop.

"Alright, so this makes us what?"

"Let's see what this is but I would love if we called it dating for now" Miranda said and Gary smiled and looked her in the eyes.

"So, should we tell the others?"

"Shouldn't we keep it a secret for a while?"

"As you wish" and with that Gary grabbed her arm, led her closer to him and kissed her softly on her lips as she made out a groan. He couldn't keep his hands off her. They went from her arms to her face and she had placed her arms around his neck and was playing with his hair as they both let go to get air.

"Wow, as much as I would want to just stay in bed with you the whole day, we have some friends to hang out with" She said and smiled.

"Alright, just a last kiss" he said and she kissed him on the mouth gently.

They put on some clothes and went out of the room seeing Clive, Stevie and Tilly sitting at the table watching them. They had prepared breakfast for the five of them.

"Wow, you both slept long, that's not very usual." Tilly said.

"Uhm, no, we.. we.." Gary said trying to come up with something to say.

"We were very tired after the day of traveling." Miranda said saving the moment as she walked away from Gary while gazing him behind her shoulder, smiling at him. Keeping this from the others was quite fun. They hadn't gotten that much sleep after all. "Is the coffee ready?" Miranda asked trying to change the subject.

Miranda and Gary sat opposite to each other through the whole breakfast and were giving each other looks during it, trying secretly not to show the others. Even at one time, Gary had placed his hand on her leg and it was exactly when she was speaking so it interrupted her and everyone kept asking why she stopped talking. And she got this big smile on her face that made Gary melt.

When they had eaten their breakfast they went down to the pool, none of them felt like they wanted to go out or go anywhere so they decided to stay at the hotel for the day. Miranda hated staying in the sun and trying to get a tan, she thought it was completely hopeless so she stayed under the parasol almost the whole day. She was fine being there and reading a book and sometimes pretending reading the book to check out Gary in his swimming trunks. He was surprisingly fit, she had seen him before shirtless but it was different now. One time at the day, he had surprised her with her favorite drink by the pool, a strawberry daiquiri and it had cream on the top with a heart made of strawberry. He was the sweetest. By many times at the day, Miranda had noticed how the others had tried to set them up. They had made Gary buy her stuff like flowers and drinks and they had gotten him lubricate her sun lotion on her back and shoulders and stuff like that but she had to admit it was hard for them to keep their hands off each other. Sometimes it went too far and they were so worried people would see them so they had to hide behind houses or down the beach to steal a kiss from the other. At one point, Miranda was telling Gary she thought they tried to set them up and they both decided to play with them.
