(Cover) - EN Showbiz - Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez enjoyed a romantic break together during the Independence Day weekend.

The pair were seen frolicking on a yacht in the Hamptons, which was docked at the Sag Harbor Marina in New York. According to onlookers, Justin, 17, took "off his shirt" and played "patty-cake with Selena".

"They were messing around," William Coldwell, who was on a nearby yacht, told New York Daily News. "They showed affection, but it wasn't like they were groping each other."

The young lovebirds were also seen sharing a romantic meal at a Thai restaurant.

"All those little girls catching Wicked at the Gershwin probably would have thrown their mothers off the balcony to get a glimpse if they'd known that Justin and Selena were just down the block," said a diner at Siam Inn restaurant. The source added that the pair talked about dental work and shared their opinions on the new Transformers movie.

Selena, 18, and Justin went public with their romance in February when they held hands and kissed at the Vanity Fair Oscars party. (C) Cover Media
