Plans Slipping Away

Ralf kept himself over my house for 20 minutes telling me that him, Keith and Ace were heading to St. Mary’s to visit Colors but I told him I couldn’t go because I had to preserve my money for today. Walking upstairs I gave Lyssa a call while she was on the phone to Penelope. It looked to me as if Lyssa was trying to change her plans but Lyssa was still getting ready to come over.

What bothered me was that Lyssa didn’t’ tell me that her schedule was changed until midday the next day until today. My thoughts are that Lyssa didn’t tell me so she didn’t have to spend that much time at my house and could still get home at what time her mum set 10:30 p.m. After Ralf tried telling me that Hawaii shirts were made for black people in Hawaii (How stupid can you get, seriously) he left to get ready for his night out and I told him I would probably call Keith on his mobile after 10:30 p.m. if they hadn’t left to see if they were still going.

Calling Lyssa back she was definitely coming over but she was in the middle of shaving her legs for me. Gratified was I that Lyssa was wearing a skirt just for me over to my house, some feat. Lyssa asked if I would buy a movie with my money and then she would return it but I told her what I knew, I had no money to spend. Lyssa was going to come over in a taxi and that’s where all her money was going to but her mum decided to give her a lift.

Lyssa was taking forever so I thought I should visit the video shop and rent a movie on my Credit Card so I wouldn’t waste any money but when they told me it would be harder for them I paid in cash. I was hoping that Lyssa would at least go halves with me because she would now have money (Since she also got a lift home with Shawn and Tatton) but she didn’t even offer or say anything about it. So there goes one of my visits to the Gym next week, figures.

Lyssa Arrives in a Skirt

Not hearing Lyssa knock on the door I had a feeling she would be there so I opened the door for her admiring how she looked. Lyssa had high heels on, her long black cotton skirt, black top and her hair done up. Lyssa looked pretty good but I have to say that her skirt looked better when she was lying down on bed, it made her look taller and more slick. Lyssa told me that she had seen ‘Janice Brown’ and she thought it was shit so we ended up watching a movie on television.

Laying next to each other we got close to each other and what pissed me off was that Lyssa was paying much attention to the television screen to avoid my ways. Lyssa came over my house looking as sexy as she did knowing that she was having her periods soon (She had them today) yet she would remove my hands from her sensitive areas when they would start making their way there.

Lyssa was being a tease by allowing me to touch her ass, see that she had a G-String on and hold my hand and allow my hand to go under her head. Besides the fact that Lyssa was being confusing with removing my hands at one point and then rolling on top of me and hugging me in the next I was having a fair night. What’s so good about watching a movie on television apart from the fact that I was with Lyssa for two hours, hugging and all that, what the deal is.

A Lift and a Goodbye

When the time arrived to 10:30 p.m. Lyssa was ready to call a Taxi but I was just going to blurt out “Please, don’t ring the Taxi yet, you look hot enough to devour” but I didn’t. Lyssa let me touch her sensitive nipples but that’s as far as it went for our night and that was upsetting, so far but so far away. Shawn and Tatton knocked on my front door and answering I told them that Lyssa was inside but she was leaving soon.

Shawn offered to give her a lift home but I thought Lyssa would rather catch a taxi so I told them to come back in fifteen minutes. Walking back into my room I asked Lyssa if she wanted to go with Shawn and Tatton and she said as long as I was with her, well of course. Calling Shawn as he was jumping in the car I asked him again and as Lyssa and I got ready he waited with Tatton it the car.

Lyssa must have looked dressed up to them as she slipped into the car and sat content with me in the back seat. While Tatton was telling me about how he swore at Shafiq over the phone while he was giving Tessa a call Lyssa and I held hands a couple of times, that confused me somewhat. At Lyssa’s house I wished her good luck for today and jumping out of the car she headed to her front door. We didn’t kiss each other at all while Lyssa was at my house, only hugs.

Festival Flop and Mystery Gunshots

The three of us traveled around Queen Street noticing two hot girls in very shorts skirts with long legs. We parked the car and walked the Festival noticing that it was getting smaller and smaller every year. There were hardly enough people there to make up the numbers, to put it lightly it was shit.

Campbelltown was boring so deciding to head to Wollongong we drove to my house where I got dressed and done my hair. Next was Shawn’s house and as he got ready I read ‘Fast Fours and Rotaries’ knowing one day I would have a car to brag about. Shawn prepared himself and then we headed for Tatton’s house. Outside was his sister and mum who told us that there were at least 30 gunshots that had gone off in the area.

Back at my house when I was getting dressed I heard the shots but I just thought there were fireworks. Going up the street were ample amounts of police units and even a large paramedic truck the size of a fire engine. Whatever happened it must have been big but to me it just sounded like fireworks, not barrels of gunpowder. Tatton’s mum once again hadn’t washed his clothes so he told us he didn’t want to go out and for Shawn and I to just take the car and have fun.

Parking the car in his yard we sat with him as he argued with his mum about leaving his clothes wet in the washing machine for at least a week. I’ve never seen Tatton get pissed off at his mum before, it’s just reminiscent of me and my mum back in the days. Finally agreeing to come out Tatton just put his hat on and came out in what he had.

A Night Out in Wollongong

Wollongong wasn’t that bad, we drove to this big pub where we got out of the car and mingled but didn’t talk with the people there. Walking around we jumped back into the car and Shawn drove us to Waves where we are spending our night tonight and then showed us the hotel we were staying in just across the road. The hotel was costing us $100 and as seven people were paying Shawn and Tatton told me they didn’t mind if I had stayed for the night and didn’t pay as they knew I was broke.

Shawn might even be lending me this mad shirt that clings to my body and is meant for clubs. It was given to him by Ace for helping him out with some electrical shit. Shawn told me that it made Noah look like a big cunt and it was slightly see through so I wonder what it can do for me. Shawn told me that I would definitely pick up in this shirt, let’s see.

As the time edged towards 3:00 a.m. we headed home and being the first to be dropped off the time was 3:30 a.m. For the rest of the night I watched ‘Janice Brown’ and had something to eat before resting at 6:45 a.m. The sex scene and how the chick in the movie just says “Wanna fuck” out of nowhere is pretty sick, imagine that.

A Call From Overseas

Only sleeping for two hours the phone rang at 9:00 a.m. and a Yugoslavian voice came upon the phone line. Knowing that it was for my parents I found out that it was my mum’s brother and figuring he would be ringing from Yugoslavia I ran upstairs to tell my mum. The sun was out this morning and as I was outside basking in the sun I heard my mum telling her brother not to cry over the phone.

For ten minutes after that I slept but my slumber was once again interrupted by Lyssa’s phone call. Wondering why Lyssa called me at 9:00 a.m. I gathered that Lyssa wasn’t going to her modeling shoot but that’s when Lyssa decided to tell me that her mum had changed the date. That’s when I started to get a bit upset of how Lyssa never listened to me and from there Lyssa started yelling at me.

Finally Answering Back

For so long I’ve had to endure Lyssa’s nasty tongue speaking words of hate as I’ve just sat there content, calm in my voice and never swore at Lyssa. Since Lyssa and I broke up and learning what I have done wrong I’ve tried to be as nice to Lyssa as possible. Trying never to raise my voice and at most times I do the right thing but Lyssa pissed me off so much that my anger just took me over.

No longer did I want to be Lyssa’s guinea pig for verbal abuse, now it was time to abuse back and Lyssa didn’t like it. With these raised words I put Lyssa in her place if only for a while because the nice way I was so used to talking to Lyssa wasn’t working, she was trying to walk all over me.

Our conversation finished with angry words and Lyssa said “Thanks a lot for wishing me luck” so in an angry tone I wished her luck and saying goodbye to each other we hung up. Lyssa is probably still in the City doing her photo shoot, the one she didn’t really want to do. Lyssa and I are probably not going to the pools for a while now, Lyssa won’t buy her two piece swimsuit now so we could head to the pools together.

For the rest of my day I’ve been here on this Diary and I’ve had a shower and had something to eat already. Believe it or not the time is now 5:10 p.m. and I’ve been off the computer for at least half an hour for resting my mind and hands. RSI is getting to the finger that I broke ages ago and I can probably get some compensation for that when I start working or maybe even now. I’m going to give Shawn a call now and then call Ralf and see what’s happening about tonight at Waves because I don’t want to miss out on any of the action.
