He spent the rest of the camp hoping to run into her again. It wasn’t until the last evening of camp that he found her at an evening social. He asked her to dance and made sure to get her email before parting ways. The pair kept in touch as the years passed, writing emails and sending letters back and forth. As they got older, they began to seriously date. On one special evening, Spencer wrote Laura a beautiful piano arrangement and brought her back to the ballroom where he danced with her years before. He asked for Laura’s hand in marriage, and she knew she wanted nothing more. Five years from the evening they danced as young sixteen year olds, they were married.
