We were alone on this portion of the deck.

There was no need for words between us. With the moonlight the way it was, a man starts a thinkin... There I was, looking out over the dark water, so quiet. I thought to myself

"I bet it is possible for a submarine to approach a merchant ship undetected on the surface to well within 1000 yards."
Well, I suppose if your intent is to approach on the surface you won't have much need to raise your periscope, negating any purpose to the romance...
