Shawn Mendes Imagines

Claw Machine

Your POV
Shawn and I were in The Philippines for vacation, and we decided to shop at SM Mall of Asia for some souvenirs before we head back to Canada tomorrow. 

We spotted a Tom's World arcade, and he smirked as he gets 500 pesos out of his wallet. 

"Shawn, are you sure you wanna blow your money on that instead of one more souvenir?" I asked. I know all that money will just go to waste.

"I'm sure, babe. I'm an expert at these!" He says back confidently. 

He puts the bill in the token machine and out comes over 120 tokens for him to spend. Oh boy, this kid is addicted. 

He goes over to a small claw machine and puts one token in. 

"Go further this way." I directed him. He drops the claw and we saw the progress. It picked up the toy slowly but then dropped it before it even got to the prize hole.

"NO!!" He shouts loudly and everyone including the employees looked at us. 

"Oh uh, sorry." He smiles awkwardly and goes to a corner to tie his shoe. We then heard an excited scream from a little boy who played the same machine.

"Look, dad! I got it!" He says and shows the prize that Shawn was going for. He jumps up and down and moves to another machine. I look back at Shawn who has a look of envy on his face. I laughed as we moved on to another machine.

We kept on walking until I saw one with a big toy inside. He smiles and puts two tokens in. 

He positions the claw and drops it. It starts to pick up and we both gasped.

"Oh my god! Y/N! We're gonna get it!!" He exclaims.

We both held each other in hope until our dreams were crushed. 

Again.

Our smiles turned into frowns and we both fell into a state of disappointment. I can see the little kid laughing as he holds his stuff toy in front of us that he won earlier.

I smiled back at him to be polite when in reality I just wanna snatch that toy that Shawn deserved to win.

We both walked to find a different machine, until we heard the little kid shout. He won the toy again!

Shawn becomes even more pissed and gives him a death glare. It's funny how a 6-year old is a master at these games while here I have a grown adult who can't even win anything.

"Let's take a break from these money-stealing machines! We'll come back to these later." I suggested and he agreed. 

We went over to a coin pusher machine and he saw that there were a bunch that were gonna fall soon. The little boy somehow played the one next to us and placed his stuff toy winnings right next to him, right within me and Shawn's eyesight. 

We didn't wanna lash out at him cause we're nice people, but this little boy is really getting on our nerves and testing our patience. 

....30 minutes later....

Shawn and I have practically spent most of our tokens left and didn't end up winning anything except for a few tokens. The little boy got a jackpot and won 150 tokens, making me and Shawn even more pissed. We were ready to pounce on the young lad. 

This arcade shouldn't even be open if all they do is make you waste a lot of money.

We had just 2 tokens left, and since we haven't really been doing great at this coin pusher, we went back to the claw machines. 

I spotted one with a cute stuffed animal, and Shawn put the last two tokens in it. He does the usual and drops the claw. We then saw what happened next.

"Yes!! Oh my god yes!!" He smiles widely and gets the stuffed toy out of the prize hole. He gives it to me and I gave him a kiss. 

"For you, babe!" He says and I looked at the stuffed toy. It was so cute! 

"Before we go back to Canada tomorrow, why don't I reward you tonight...in exchange for this stuffed toy." I whispered in his ear and he winked at me. 

"I can't wait! Let's go!" He smirks and we held hands as we left the arcade to have more fun in just a few hours ;)
