Used to rejection.

[Ellie Mankelow]

They both worked into trying to.. mould it into a castle shape. "Oh yeah, this is totally working out." She laughed. "Now it's just a mound of well, wet sand. ". She looked over at Sean was completely concentrated on this sandcastle. "I've gotta say, that's the most focused I've ever seen anyone on a sand castle."

[Sean Collins]

"Hey," He laughed, patting down the side of the mountain. "When I want to do something, I get determined to do it!" He smiled. "This is..." He tilted his head to the side. "One of the strangest castles ever. But hey, we worked hard!" He wiped his hands on his shorts. "High five for team work!" He laughed.

[Ellie Mankelow]

Ellie grinned, getting out of iPhone to take a photo over it. "It's just.. so beautiful." She said, pretending to tear up. "Such hard work for the total for.. three minutes could put into it."

[Sean Collins]

"Hey!" Sean laughed, watching Ellie getting so emotional over it. "This could be a masterpiece!" He laughed, grabbing a shell from behind him. "Now it's perfect!"

[Ellie Mankelow]

Ellie laughed as Sean added the shell to his 'masterpiece'. "Yes, you're right. That totally hides the fact that underneath it there is a fail clump of wet sand trying to be a castle." She smiled, "Much better."

[Sean Collins]

"Stop making fun of it!" He laughed, getting down on his stomach. He wrapped his arms around the castle, protecting it. "The castle has feelings too, you know." He laughed, practically knocking the thing over.

[Ellie Mankelow]

Ellie took another photo, whilst laughing at the sight. She knelt back down beside the castle and began to pat it like a dog. "I'm sorry castle, I was very mean. If you wanna be a castle, you be a castle. Don't let anyone tell you what you can't be. You are the pilot of your own life!". She looked over at him, "Don't mind me. Just giving the castle a little pep talk over here."

[Sean Collins]

"What's that, castle?" Sean pressed his ear close to the sand. "Mmmhm, yes, I see." He said, trying his hardest not to laugh. "I don't think the castle forgives you." He frowned, sitting up. He wiped off the sand off of his arms, and bent down again. "Wait, there is one way to get him to forgive you."A childish grin spread across his face.

[Ellie Mankelow]

"Well, fine then!". She said crossing her arms and turning her back on the castle. The grin that Sean had when saying ""Wait, there is one way to get him to forgive you." scared Ellie. Who knows what sneaky little plan he had going on in his mind. "Oh yeah, and what's that then?"

[Sean Collins]

Sean slowly dug his arms under the castle, and before Ellie could react, he whipped them up and dumped the sand all over her. "What's that, castle?" He paused for a brief moment. "I think it forgives you now." He fell backwards on the sand, hysterically laughing.

[Ellie Mankelow]

"I believe the castle is now.. well.. dead actually.". He layed there laughing hysterically whilst Ellie stood up and brushed it all off of her. Once she was some what clean, she picked up balls of sand and threw it at Sean. "Ha!"

[Sean Collins]

"Rest in piece, castle." Sean lowered his head for a moment, after he stopped laughing. Once he picked it up, he was pelted with mounds of sand. "Okay, this sand stinks!" He laughed, running back out towards the water to get sand that actually stuck together. He grabbed a small handful, and threw it towards Ellie. "I win!" He laughed, doing a cheesy dance in the water.

[Ellie Mankelow]

"Never!" Ellie charged towards him and playfully pushed him. Sadly, with her small and almost non existent strength, her 'charge' hadn't even made Sean budge. "Well.. y'know.. you were supposed to fall and everything then.." She said, in between fits of laughter. As Sean too began to laugh, Ellie managed to catch him off guard and push him in the water.

[Sean Collins]

Sean couldn't stop laughing as Ellie tried to push him into the water. He stood like a stone wall, not moving one bit. When she stopped, and told Sean that he was supposed to fall, his stomach actually hurt from laughing. He closed his eyes for one moment, and the next thing he knew, he was pushed into the water. He sunk backwards into the sand, and when he sat up, he spit out a mouthful of sea water. "At least help me up?" He asked, extending his hand. He knew she wasn't too strong, and was getting in the right position to pull her down with him.

[Ellie Mankelow]

Ellie narrowed her eyes. "No no no, you're just gonna do that thing where you pull me done with you.". He shook his head and laughed and said that he wouldn't. Reluctantly, she moved forward with her hand out. Bad move.
