He grinned wide showing his pearly whites as she took his hand. He could feel the warmth of her soft hand, he enjoyed it, just like he had remembered from last time. When she let go of him he placed the hand on the counter in front of him and then gladly accepted the stool she brought for him "Thank you my sweet darlin'. You are too kind for this ol'cripple." He said with a chuckle as the girl disappeared through the door. Once she was gone Stax lifted his arm and placed the tip of his middle finger on the table with his palm out so his arm was like a slide, and in form a golden coin slid out of his sleeve and down his arm to the table below. He moved his hand placing his pointer finger on the coin and slid the coin to the place where he knew Natalya would find it, he didn't know how he knew this but he did, probably just came with being touched by a goddess.<br/><br/>While he waited he slipped his saxophone around to his front and began to play softly, allowing the blue notes to dance around the room. Just before Maria opened the door he stopped blowing and lowered his horn. When she spoke he perked his head up but turned his ear to her rather than his eyes. "Maria how could how could anyone stay away from a goddess like you." He said as he reached out and placed one of his hands on hers.
