Feliciano furiously pressed the buttons on the side of the pin-ball game, his eyes following the ball quickly and intently. His tongue stuck out of his lips ever so slightly just to add on to his look of concentration. After nearly 2 minutes, the ball finally fell through the hole and that had used up all of his time.
"Dang it." The Italian murmured, staring at the game. Some tickets started to seep out through a little slit on the front of the machine and the boy crouched down, watching as they all came out. He repeatedly won tickets like this--not that much in one go, but enough to fill up his pockets by the time he was finished with the game.
As soon as the machine finished, Feliciano ripped the tickets free and counted them before folding them up and pocketing them. He stood up straight and fixed his shirt some, turning and looking for another game to play. There were so many different varieties, most looked really fun, but for some reason he just couldn't get interested in any.
"Ve..." He sighed, quietly. It wasn't even fun coming here alone. Everyone usually had a small group of companions with them, but he hadn't even made friends at school yet! He'd met acquaintances, sure, but he hadn't spoken with anyone enough to actually become friends. He wished he had.
"I really need to get some friends!" He declared to himself, eying the arcade. Maybe some people here went to his school. Whatever, that didn't matter, it was time to socialize!! He looked determined for a moment before sighing with dejection. "...But they're all having so much fun together, I don't want to bother anyone..." He sulked, then turned and faced the pinball machine again. "I guess it's just me and you today." He murmured, inserting a token into the slot.
