Onward, Lieutenant!  Let’s get the USS Rhasper under weigh.”</strong><br/><br/>JJ let Rhonda set the pace as they paddled out into gentle swells, the boat rising and falling peacefully as they took their date onto the water.  The day had turned out quite warm, but lovely, the sun turning the water around them into glittering gold and sparkling jewels.  Beneath them a small crab scuttled into deeper waters as their shadow passed over it.<br/><br/>He reached back and grabbed two orange wedges, peel still attached, and offered her one as the two of them left the beach behind.<br/><br/><strong>“So… Notting Hill.  Your favorite rom-com or you just liked the money quote from Julia Roberts?”</strong><br/><br/>He couldn’t remember if he’d told her about the producers letting him and Delaney see the “original” Islanders videos, but either way it was fine.  She’d either know what he was talking about and get the reference immediately or she’d wonder how he knew.  Conversation piece whichever way.<br/>
