After a hard day, every one went to the beach for volleyball.

"You still haven't told if you date went good or not, Ferris?" Ace questioned as they drove to the beach. "It went well." Spade said. Ace looked over at him, "You serious, 'It went well.' Spill it." Ace said. Spade smiled, "Just say I am thanking Goose because I am seeing her again tonight." Spade said which caused Ace to jump in her seat, which caused Spade to chuckle at his friend.

"So, now you...spill it." Spade said sternly. Ace hummed thinking it about it. "We have much in common and also we kissed." Ace said as she blushed. Spade looked over at her, "You are so in love with him, it's not even funny." Spade said. "Maybe I am." Ace said.

"Well I am rooting for you both." Spade said and Ace chuckled. "Look at you being our cheerleader." Ace said, Spade smiled. "Oh by the way, her name is Anna." Spade said. "Well... I can't wait to meet Anna." Ace said with a smile.

"Also Maverick told your brother, he stunk which result in your brother checking to see if he did." Spade said which caused Ace's eyes to widen. "He didn't?" Ace asked. "He did." Spade said. "Oh my goodness, I bet my brother wasn't expecting that remark." Ace said. "He wasn't." Spade said as the two of them chuckled.

Spade and Ace got out of his car and made their way to the volleyball match that was going on.

Maverick and Goose was going against Iceman and Slider. Ace ends up completely distracted by Iceman. "Damn." Ace muttered. "Seeing something you like, Ace?" Iceman said catching her off guard. She bit her lip and not saying a word, Iceman chuckled at her response.

"Whose winning?" Spade asked. "We're about to kick their asses." Maverick responded. "Sure you are." Iceman responded as he rolled his eyes.

"We'll see, but we are playing the winners!" Spade called out.

Spade and Ace sat down. Ace hummed as she watched the game. Her eyes constantly wondered to Ice and Spade to notice. "You are so in love it's not even funny." Spade said. "Yeah... but I am not rushing this, I want to take nice and slow." Ace said. "Says the one who made an offer." Spade said and Ace looked over at him.

"I was being a lady but yet he was being a respectable gentleman... like I said taking all this nice and slow." Ace said. "We'll see." Spade said, Ace rose a brow up at him. "What's wrong, Cat got your tongue." Spade said. Ace's lips turned into a thin line then she turned away and looked back at the game.

"Woooo!" Slider cheered. Ace shook her head at her brother while Spade chuckled. "You know what, it's too hot out here." Ace said standing up. "Don't tell me your doing what I think your doing." Spade said. "I don't know what your talking about." Ace said as she took off her white tee revealing her black bikini top. "Show off." Spade said as he shook his head at the woman.

Iceman looked over and his breathe hitched at the sight of her. So many thoughts were going through his mind at that moment. "Hey you good there Ice?" Slider asked him. "Yeah." Iceman responded. Slider looked over at his sister then back at Iceman. "I know you have the hots for my sister, look you are like a brother to me, if you hurt her, you'll never hear the end of it from me, am I clear on this?" Slider asked him and Iceman nodded.

......

"WHOO!!!" Ace exclaimed as she watched Maverick and Goose scored. "That's game." Maverick said. "ICEMAN AND SLIDER! READY TO TAKE US ON!" Spade exclaimed. "I HOPE YOU BRING IT YOU TWO!" Slider said. Ace saw Maverick walk away, "Where is Maverick going?" Ace question, Spade looked over as well, "He and Goose have one more game." Spade said. Ace and Spade climbed off the bleachers and followed Goose.

"Mav, come on man. One more game, that evens it up, we can take them." Goose said. Then Maverick apologizes. "We got it." Goose said. "I got some things I got to take care of." Maverick said to Goose. "Meaning Charlie?" Ace questioned but Maverick ignored her. "I knew it." Ace said with a smirk. "Take care of just one more game." Goose said. "You can't spare one more game." Spade said.

"Sorry.." Maverick said. "He's whipped." Ace said. "You're sorry." Goose said. "Come on Mother Goose, you pussy!" One of the guys exclaimed. Ace rolled her eyes. "For me?" Goose asked Maverick. "Hey hey, Goose, I'll join you for this final round, Maverick owes us, don't know yet but he does then Spade and I can do our game." Ace said. "Have I mentioned you are the greatest friend?" Goose asked her and she chuckled. "Don't tell Maverick that one." Spade said.

"So when were you going to mention you and Iceman?" Goose asked which caused Ace to freeze. "I uh... It's noticeable?" Ace questioned. "You can tell the feeling in between you two." Goose said. "Yes, we are in love, but Mr. Spirit fingers think it's going to escalate more quickly." Ace said. "Mr. Spirit Fingers?" Spade questioned. "You are practically a cheerleader for this relationship, beside Iceman and I, are taking this nice and slow." Ace said.

Goose and Ace walked onto the field while Spade sat next to Hollywood. "I am taking over for Maverick for this round to help Goose out, then you two are going against Spade and I." Ace said. They nodded then Ace and Goose won that round. Goose high fived Ace. "We are the dream team." Ace said with a smile. "Good Luck to you and Spade." Goose said and Ace smiled.

She looked at Iceman and bit her lip. "Hey Kazansky." She said as she approached the net. "Good you're here." Iceman said. "So you needed to speak to me then." Ace said with a brow rose."Let's make this round interesting, since it's a fresh new game." Iceman said to her.

"Alright I'm listening, what do you have in mind?" Ace asked him.

"If your brother and I win, I get to take you on a date." Iceman said, Ace looked into his eyes, she smirked. "Alright, I like that and If I win?" She questioned him.

"Anything you want." Iceman said. "Anything I want, huh, alright you got yourself a deal." Ace said with confidence.

...................

This was the game point, both teams were tied

Ace passed and hit the ball for Spade to serve. Spade hit the ball over the net to Iceman who hit it back over to Ace. Ace set the ball for Spade which he spiked it over the net. Slider dove and hit the ball to Iceman who spiked it back over the net. Both Ace and Spade dived for the ball but it hit the sand securing the win for Iceman's team.

Slider whooped at their victory and chest bumped Iceman. Then Iceman ducked under the net and stood over Ace with a smirk on his face. "She wanted to lose." Spade said to Goose. "Yeah, she sure did." Goose said.

She rolled over onto her back and hummed as she gazed up at Iceman. He held out his hand and Ace grabbed it letting him pull her on her feet. They stood chest to chest with their eyes locked onto each other.

Ace smiled, "Well you won there lover boy, where are we going for this date." She replied. "Get cleaned up then meet me at the beach behind the bar." Iceman replied.

"Alright, anything else you request?" Ace asked. "Just wear comfortable clothing, maybe even a bathing suit. Who knows, I might toss you into the water before the night's over with." Iceman said, Ace chuckled softly.

She looked over and saw Spade looking at her. "What are you gawking at?" Ace questioned. "You lost on purpose." Spade said. "I did not... Maybe... Excuse me, I have a date to get ready for, don't you have a date with Anna there, shy Ferris?" Ace questioned him. "Damn, I do, see you later Ace!" He exclaimed as he quickly grabbed his stuff and left, Ace chuckled.

.................

Diana showered then after quickly ran to her room. Where she threw on a green bikini, Then white tee, with short over it, then comfortable pair of sneakers. She looked over in mirror to make sure her hair looked pretty decent, It was curly and she didn't seem to mind it.

Then she drove down to the bar, then walked to the beach where she found Tom sitting on a blanket with a basket. She smiled.

"Hey!' She exclaimed happily.

"Hey! I hope you're hungry." Tom said to her as she sat down beside him, Tom pulled out the sandwiches and beers from the bar.

"Thanks." Diana said.

They both ate in silence. So much was circling through Diana's mind at that very moment.

"You know what Diana, you are different." Tom said breaking the silence which caused her to looked over to look at him.

"Is that bad?" Diana asked him.

"No, people told me things that everyone at Top Gun would call bullshit on. You are something, I know I say it on the record. You have to deal with so much negativity because not only your a woman but your one of the best. I like that you don't tolerate their bullshit and that your a badass doing so." Tom explained as he took a sip of his beer as she smiled at him.

"Well I heard you were just some cocky asshole but personally to me, I call bullshit. But you can be very cocky, personality I don't mind it." Diana said.

"Well I am glad you don't mind it." Tom said.

Diana looked at the food then back at Tom. "You know, maybe next time, I can cook for the both of us." Diana said. Tom smiled at her, "I would like that." Tom said.

They both looked at each other, then Tom pulled her to his side. "Diana, you are one of a kind you know that, The thing is I don't know what your doing to me, like I said the last date, I like it." Tom said. "Really, well I can't argue with you on that because I feel the same." Diana said. Then she looked down at his lips then back into his eyes.

"Just kiss me, Kazansky." Diana said. "You don't have to ask me twice." Tom said as he pressed his lips onto hers.

She pulled away for moment, "For record, I am glad I lost." Diana said. "Really, what did you have in mind if you won?" Tom asked.

"Shh, Diana Kerner never tells her secrets." She said, Tom chuckled. "You wanna know something, Diana. I really like you." Tom said. "Really, because I really like you too." Diana said.

They both smiled at each then she pulled him into another kiss.
