I just got back and I am still in shock…I met him. This is my 4th time actually meeting Mr. Depp and my 5th time seeing him. My sister, mom, baby cousin, and I got there around 6. I live about two minutes from where he met him, it’s almost walking distance. We stood in line, might I mention we were completely in the wrong area, because all of a sudden someone fro behind yelled Johnny and everyone ran. It turned out it wasn’t Johnny but there were security guards and police all over the area. They told us to get in one line, and when they realized that that wouldn’t work, they started hand picking people who were lucky enough to get an autograph from Johnny. Amazingly enough me and my sister got picked. So we went and stood in line, and by that point we were both beyond excited. I thought I was going to pass out, I was so happy and ecstatic. Anyways, all of a sudden Johnny came out and started signing. With every step forward my heart started racing more. Finally my little sister went up to him and she said hi, and he gave her that sweet smile that he has and patted her on the shoulder. She leaned in and gave him a hug. He then signed her Pirates of the Caribbean game and he asked what her name was, she replied Lily. I saw his face glow and he smiled from ear to ear, I knew it reminded him of lily-rose. L-I-L-Y?, he asked and she replied yes and said thank you. It was my turn. I was nervous and hoped that I wouldn’t say anything stupid. I said hi and I shook his hand, and then I gave him my Depp book by Christopher Heard and I asked if he could please make it out to Nattalie (my name). He asked, N-A-T-I-L-Y? No, n-a-t-t-a-l-i-e-, I replied quickly with a nervous smile. At that point we were looking into each others eyes and I noticed that he still had eyeliner on and how beautiful his eyes were. I guess I said my name to fast because he had to confirm it once again and make sure he got it right. Then I told him I had written in article about him in the newspaper I write for called LAYOUTH and I asked if he had time to check it out it would mean a lot to all of us on the staff. He said, Oh yeah, what is it exactly? I told him it was a teen newspaper that I write for and he can check it out at L.A.YOUTH.COM. He said, yeah definitely! I told him we all love him there, and we left with huge smiles on our faces as we ran down the street to go tell the good news to my mom. What a night!!!
