I felt that the post kiss walk around the lake was taken to be 
private - H&G walking away from the reader to have 'private time'. 
It seems as though H&G's relationship was pretty much established 
through friendship, all they have done is taken is a natural step 
further. Having much more 'on screen' time could have been too 
voyeuristic, and could have detracted from the idea that H needed 
some 'time out' from the LV situation. Also as teenagers get older, 
they become more secretive - perhaps this is why the ship story is 
not expanded; H may not have wanted to 'discuss' it.

I don't know if this makes sense, but I know what I mean.
