Here's Heathers story...

I was online browsing various sites for Twilight news (don't laugh, you know you do it too lol) and I saw a contest on ryanseacrest.com to win a trip to L.A. for the Twilight premiere. The contest was scheduled to end on Friday November 14th and it was Thursday November 13th. I decided what the heck. Why not enter it, knowing full and well that I wouldn't win it. I never win anything. So I filled out the form and submitted it. I have a horrible internet connection and had to fill out and submit the form several times before it finally went through. (Thank God I am persistent) I get up on Friday and go about my day as usual. I am on the computer browsing again when my cell phone starts ringing. It says "Restricted". I usually ignore those numbers but something told me to answer it. When I did, a voice comes on the line and I immediately recognize it. It is Ryan Seacrest! I knew why he was calling. He told me I won the contest and would be flying out on Sunday to L.A. I am from NC and have never flown before then.

So we fly out to L.A. and stay at the Hotel Angeleno. In the hotel elevator I meet several girls who are there for a TwiCon event at a bookstore in L.A.

On Monday night we are driven to the Twilight premiere. My husband and I get out of our car and I just stand there taking it all in. I turn around to see who was in the car behind us and it is Jackson Rathbone. While waiting in line to get into the theater I spot Peter Facinelli and his wife Jenni Garth. We are rushed into the theater to wait for the movie to start. I began to hear all sorts of yelling outside and immediately know why. Rob has arrived. They won't let us leave the theater to go back outside though. There were several people upset by this but I just kept thinking "Wednesday morning you will get to meet him one on one. It will be OK." So we watch the movie, which was amazing to see with so many Twilight fans. They all ooohd and ahhhhd at the right moments and were quiet at the right times.

Then Wednesday morning comes. I wake up early and turn on the hotel radio and listen to Ryan's show while getting ready. I was so nervous. The driver comes and picks us up and takes us to the studios. I get out and see lots of girls lined up outside. As the guards lead us in I immediately began to feel eyes boring into me LOL. We go inside and wait for Rob to arrive. Ryan comes out and takes a few minutes to talk to me and my husband and we get a few pictures. Rob has to do his interview with Ryan before I get to meet him. All of the sudden there is alot of commotion and I see several people walk by near me and then......Robert Pattinson. <3<3<3<3 I almost beat the crap out of my husband's arms. He forgot to turn the camera on and missed that pic opportunity. Well then we had a chance to listen to his interview with Ryan. So then, I know it is over. He is coming to meet me. When I see him round that corner and he starts walking toward me, I felt a little like Bella Swan, I totally forgot to breathe and almost fainted. LOL. I was shaking. I say Hello to him and he shook my hand. The first thing he said to me was "Are you English?" I guess I must have said Hello in a weird way or accent. I say no and he laughs. He takes a picture with me and has his arm around me. (God Bless my husband for being so understanding of my fangirliness lol) He then asks me how long I have been a fan of Twilight. He asks me what all I had done in L.A. so far. I told him that we went to the premiere and he asked me how I like it. I told him that I loved it and he told me that he didn't even stay at the premiere to watch it and that he hates watching himself. (During this whole conversation he is leaning on the table and listening intently. You can see it in the pics on my page) I hand him my books asking him to sign them. I beging to panic realizing I don't have a pen and being asking anyone in the room if they have a pen. "Pen Pen anyone have a pen?" I then hear laughing coming from Rob and he begins to mock my Southern Accent in a high pitch voice saying "Pen, Pen, Pen" and laughing. It was wonderful. <3 So he signs my books. He really looks like he doesn't want to leave but he is flying out of L.A. to New York because the next morning he is scheduled to be on the Today Show. He then tells me goodbye and says I would tell you to enjoy the movie but since you have already seen it I won't, all the while smiling that wonderful smile. I tell him that I plan on seeing it more and he laughs.

So there it is. My story of how I met Robert Pattinson. <3

AND more pics after the break...
