Lens Cap Photo With Strangers (Part 2) – Mad Chaos: December 25, 1998

Spotted On The Stage

Jumping up onto the stage we started to dance with the packing crowd, having our fun doing our thing. While up there I noticed plenty of girls within close proximity but there was one that I noticed that I’ve seen somewhere before. She lives in the house where I always get off the bus in Bradbury just down the street where I stole the Santa years ago and Keith lost his shoe. From what I knew she always rolls a baby around with her and she’s always with a guy that I think is her husband or the father of the baby.

I don’t know what her story is but she always used to look at me as I was jumping on the bus as she wheeled her pram on. There were days she looked good but her face says nothing for her good looks. She’s a bit rounded but not fat and she has blonde hair with a face that screams out she has snoring problems when she’s awake. This girl was with two of her female friends where I was dancing around one of them.

As her two friends were heading somewhere else she tapped them on the shoulder and she kept herself still up on the stage. Knowing that she was after some dick or flirting like a bitch I kept my back to her as she danced a step behind me. Luckily Ace turned around with his alluring dance steps and began with her. Later he told me that she looked at him as if she wanted his lips on hers or his dick in her but he didn’t give it. That’s when I informed him about her background of having a kid and possibly being married.

Hugs From Strange Friends

Later as we walked through the crowd I came upon Everett who basically took away Zola from Kofi. He was with his Asian friend who I also know from one of Lyssa’s friend’s parties. Walking past them I had a tap on my shoulder and turning around it was Everett. Both of them were concentrating on their dancing and with their heads tuned into it they both surprised me. Both their attitudes are funny to look at because they seem to roll with whatever they’re doing and not care about the surroundings.

For example, they pulled me up long enough to wish me Merry Christmas, give me hugs, take a photo with me and as soon as that was all done they were back to their dancing. It’s like I’m on a conveyor belt and each set of hands has to put on a new part to a toy and that’s all they do until the toy is finished.

It was funny though, we hugged and shook hands and when they took a photo they bid me to stand in the middle of them as they got Keith to take the picture. The lens wasn’t open and they had to open it for him which was funny but they were intent on getting a picture of me. They probably thought I was as sick as I think they are and sometimes I feel that they would be good to hang out in a nightclub with but I don’t hang out with them.

Noah Vanishes Early

Noah danced with us for only five seconds while we were still on the ground and after that he disappeared somewhere. Later in the night we looked around for him but we figured that he headed off home, probably with his brother Tyler. He only stayed for a couple of minutes if we’re right and to Keith it was a waste of his money. Having fun dancing with Ace we noticed that Keith was just standing around on the top part of the stage near the DJ resting for what seemed half an hour. He only danced for a couple of minutes and then he stopped dancing, he’s wasting his own money.

Ace noticed the Samoan guys that he said were after him because they got caught robbing his store. He wanted to head home earlier than 3:00 a.m. because he knew he was probably going to get belted up. Keith looked into the crowd and noticed who he was talking about and turning to me he informed me that it was Mikaere. Surprised at the response I thought it was going to be some huge Samoan but all this time Mikaere was after Ace.

The Trouble With Mikaere

That’s when I started asking myself if Mikaere ever got caught for robbing a service station of sorts but I couldn’t remember a time. Therefore I had my doubts whether or not Mikaere was after Ace but he insisted upon looking at Mikaere that he was the guy. For that reason we jumped off the stage and after a walk around to look for Noah we headed outside two hours into the night and two hours into dancing.

The time was 2:15 a.m. so I wasn’t that distraught about leaving as it was only Chevy’s. From the stage I looked down into the crowd before we headed out and through all those people I couldn’t find Mikaere anywhere. Only until we were walking past the bar I looked over the railings to find him dead center in midst of the attention, looking as if he was the King pin of Campbelltown's Chevy’s.

Mikaere has built himself a strong name locally as being someone not to mess with and it pays knowing him and knowing he would be there if I needed help. Mikaere was surrounded by his friends mostly Samoan and large. There were people walking up to him, shaking his hand and treating him with respect as his attitude deserves it.

For Ace to have Mikaere after him isn’t that good a thing as he probably would get fucked up pretty bad just by Mikaere himself. Despite that I told Ace before leaving that he wouldn’t get touched if I was around him but even though he trusted me somewhat he still wanted to go home. So out we headed and from there we drove Ace home passing a car full of girls or two on the way.

Home With Keith

Dropping Ace off we headed back to my house, just Keith and I as we talked about plans for the new year. Knowing that we had to head out to the City to watch the fireworks we were trying to throw some plans together despite no one that is going to be around. If no one is going to come to the city with me then I will go alone but I have to be there for the new year.

Keith also informed me that Tatton has definitely lost his job at Mobile and is broke now. Keith and I also talked about heading to Canberra in two or three weeks time to rent a hotel and stay there for a day or two, plenty of us so we can visit nightclubs.

No Lyssa In Sight

While driving home I had a feeling that Lyssa would be waiting out the front for me, I had that distinct feeling. Nevertheless, once I was dropped home I didn’t see Lyssa sitting near my driveway and walking to the front door I didn’t notice her there either. I was thinking she made her way into the house. Having only taken my license with me to Chevy’s not wanting to carry too much in my pockets I had to wake dad up to come down.

While waiting I whispered Lyssa’s name to see if she was hiding around the corner but no response. When dad opened the door for me I headed straight into the backyard where the door was unlocked to look for Lyssa. Whispering out her name once again she wasn’t there so I thought to give her a call at home since she would probably still be awake to answer it.

Lyssa Tells Her Night

Lyssa was definitely at home and as the time was 2:30 a.m. I found out that Lyssa came to my house around 1:00 a.m. with Kiley and waited out the front for an hour before leaving. Lyssa probably got home as we were leaving Chevy’s, pretty close. Lyssa was upset that I wasn’t home and she was upset that we weren’t going to be together for the night but I told her I wasn’t going to ruin a night out just so I could wait for a probability to happen. Lyssa understood that as she went on telling me about her night.

While at Chevy’s Lyssa noticed Tatton there and as he came up to her to wish her a Merry Christmas Lyssa went to give him a kiss on the cheek but as he didn’t know what was going on he moved his head on the last second. Because of this freak occurrence, Lyssa accidentally planted one on his lips and then she announced to him “Don’t ever tell Tony that we just kissed” and in a panicked frame of mind he said “No, I won’t” and practically ran away from Lyssa.

Should I have some fun at his expense now, nah. Lyssa ended up going to the pub with Kiley and her boyfriend along with some other people but she informed me that billions of people were down there and everyone she knew she would give a kiss on the cheek for Christmas.

Kieran Plants One

Lyssa also informed me some more about when Kieran and Milton stayed over. They were all talking about relationships that night and they both said that Lyssa was too picky with her men. “Why don’t you go out with me” Kieran asked and Lyssa not knowing if he was serious or not just laughed it off.

Later in the night Kieran asked Lyssa for a Christmas kiss and feeling this harmless she went to kiss him on the cheek but he lay one on her lips. For that reason I feel that Lyssa was distraught and that’s the reason she went to bed early. When Kieran done this Lyssa didn’t say anything, rather she let her body language speak as she just walked away from him.

Now Lyssa is with me in believing that he likes her. Milton who also stayed over gave Lyssa Cool Water Perfume for Christmas which is pretty dear. Lyssa was shocked when he gave her this and I feel that she shouldn’t have taken it because she knows that they both like her now. Last night they both wanted to sleep over Lyssa’s house again with a third guy coming over and I know exactly what they would have been thinking.

Off To Lyssa's House

Anyway, I have to speak really quickly about my day so far because dad’s starting the car right now for me to head to Lyssa’s house for the night. We’ve talked a couple of times on the phone now and Lyssa has come back from her Christmas celebrations with Penelope.

Jett also came over today to see if I wanted to go to the beach around 3:00 p.m. but it was a bit too late so I told him no. Just after he left I had myself a tan out the back as it was boiling and then I started typing here. Well, now I’ve got to go so I’ll see you later for more gossip on the front line.
