Lex gave the machine another kick but as she did she heard her name and a familiar voice. By the time she turned around the man was HUGGING the machine.
jsbddjfvbdfujvf.
NO.
Machines that stole money without giving what's promised did NOT deserve hugs! She scowled at him just a bit. "Can you move? You're making it hard for me to hurt the machine...."  He could see that couldn't he? It was clear that she was in the middle of punishing the thing so why was he getting all affectionate with it--and why wasn't he trying to help HER?? The machine could take care of itself! "I suppose it's lovely to see you too though!..." Yeah...he was still hugging the machine...
Mmmm...
She'd try something else. "I understand that this might look bad but it's not my fault!! This thing is trying to keep SUGAR away from me!!" Sugar that she wanted so it needed to just chill and give her the gumball before she hexed both it and Mr. Funner Shopkeeper. She would. Yup. Xavier knew he was behaving like a child. And he didn't care. Nope. No, sir! You see, the machine was old, well, it came with the shop and the shop has been around for ages. Come on, when HE was a child he used to kick the darn thing too. But years and years have passed. They had to be patient with this lovely gum-giving thing.
AH!
She wanted HIM to MOVE? Uh...uh...uh...no! "I'm actually very comfortable here," he said, patting his precious. "Great head rest." He leaned his head on it, and no, it wasn't a great head rest, but he wasn't about to admit that. Hehehe. At least she said it was lovely to see him. Of course it was lovely to see him. Who wouldn't die to see an ex Falmouth Falcon Beater? HMMM? Everyone. Hehehe.
Xavier eyed the girl then his precious. He believed her. It wasn't Lex's first time to attack the machine, nor was she the first one. Hehe, memories. *_*... Anyway, she wasn't lying. The man tore himself away from his precious and examined it. "It's a stubborn thing, you know," he said, rubbing his invisible beard. "Here, I'll put in another knut and problem solved." And he did. And he waited....and waited...
...and was still waiting.
His precious didn't want to give HIM gumballs? What's this blasphemy?!
He looked down at Lex and held up his index finger, a moment please. Then he stood in front of the gumball machine and shook it. Xavier shook that thing hard. One thing was the machine stealing other's money, but when it stole HIS money, oh uh-uh. That was bad. BAD precious.
Finally, there was a clinking sound, and Xavier didn't know if he broke the machine, but a blue gumball was making it's way down. He grinned and stood up. "There you go. A blue gumball." BEAM.
