Story in a box

Scotts Romantic Date
By Devon Crawford
     An avid drummer named Scott loved to play on the Boardwalk near his home. His favorite spot was across a novelty head shop. he loved to play at the spot because even if no one was out to watch him, he still had a full audience, but he was very talented and never had trouble gaining an audience, in fact many people traveled across the country to hear him play. Until one day...
     A tourist named Adel stumbled upon him by accident while he was playing in his normal spot. Once he laid eyes upon her he fell in love instantly. To the girl nicknamed "statue", because she stood to still in a solid stance. He played the best of all the songs he knew for her, but none of them worked to win her heart. Then he asked her on a date trying to play the last card up his sleeve in hopes of winning her heart. At sunset he took to her to his private lake and the sat watching the sun stet under his favorite throw cover and they shared stories of their past.
    By the end of the night she started to fall in love with Scott. As he docked the canoe and he helped her out  he heard he mumble "what i would to live in a Villa such as that one". Scott laughed and replied "you can", and she promptly responded "how?" He laughed and said "i will tell u over ice cream."
    For the next part of their date they went to get ice cream. They were both pleasantly surprised when they both had the same favorite type of ice cream hazel nuts. They continued to walk down the Boardwalk and he told her the lucky story of how he one day he was playing the drums in his usual spot and some guy dropped coins in his bag not a lot maybe a dollar eighty-six., he said but these were special collector coins and there value was well over a million dollars.
    As the date was finishing up they started to walk home. but she stoped at a booth and bought a glass jar, then walked over to the beach and filled it with sand before Scott could even ask why she said "to remind me of this marvouls night".
     He then stopped at another boothand pulled out his old tan weather wallet, with her favorite animal on the frount, an elephant. He bought a ruller, a stamp and an enevlope. He then told Adel i will mail you my plans for your bed room, he built her a room in his home and they lived hapily ever after.
