Why doesn't Fitzgerald ever show Daisy and Gatsby alone?

Fitzgerald never portrays a scene with only Gatsby and Daisy because Nick Carraway, Daisy's cousin, is the narrator of this novel. Such a scene would be impossible to portray since the narrator would have to be present and this would undermine the idea of "Daisy and Gatsby alone".Yet, although the narrator is not present when Daisy and Gatsby are alone such scenes are implied in the narration. A few examples:Nick leaves Gatsby and Daisy alone when Gatsby first requests that Nick invite Daisy over to tea so Gatsby and Daisy could reunite. When Nick comes back, he describes how Gatsby "literally glowed; without a word or a gesture of exultation a new well-being radiated from him and filled the little room", which is followed shortly with a description of Daisy's voice as "full of aching, grieving beauty, told only of her unexpected joy".Towards the end of the novel, when Nick, Tom, and Jordan share a car and Gatsby and Daisy share another one alone (where Daisy hits Myrtle Wilson, Tom's mistress).But, besides, the concrete element of narration standing in the obstacle of Daisy and Gatsby only scenes, the absence of such scenes can also be interpreted as another element of this romance.At the end of Chapter 6, after Gatsby described how his relationship with Daisy first blossomed when they were young, Nick says that "I was reminded of something--an elusive rhythm, a fragment of lost words, that I had heard somewhere a long time ago...but they made no sound, and what I had almost remembered was uncommunicable forever".This is a very interesting quote in how it shows that the height of Gatsby and Daisy's relationship lingers in their past. We are only presented with their brilliant young love, but never with scenarios of their love in the "present", as you pointed out. Nick's quote epitomizes this idea of their relationship lingering in the past with the rhythm and words from a long time ago that make no sound in the present. This is a very plausible interpretation, but one can argue about why Fitzgerald chooses to do this with a variety of other conjectures.
