Chapter 3

I had about 3 hours before we were leaving for the premier. The movie started at 8 o'clock sharp but we were going to be fashionably early to do some star searching. Before we had come here to LA, I saved up my money to buy a new dress just for this night. It was a classic black dress that was snug to my skin, and had sequins around the neck line and around the bottom. I wore black pumps that were solid black and nothing else. My accessories included a black rhinestone ring and bracelet, but I had no need to wear a necklace since the sequins were like one. I also carried a black little purse that contain our hotel pass, house key, 100 dollars and my ticket. I did my hair and it looked awesome. It was down, 5 inches past my shoulders and had soft loose curls in with a part down the middle. My mom wore a classic black dress too but would not stand out like I would, thank god. So now all I had to do was eat and we would be leaving to go to the best night ever.

We were dropped off a few blocks over from the theatre because the crowd was so big. We walked down to where you can go into the theatre and just hangout, the security guard stopped us but, of course, we showed him our passes and IDs and he let us through. When we passed the guards and finally got into the theatre there was so much to see I had to stop and soak it all in. We walked in the side doors and there were two large red staircases on opposite sides of the room to go up to the second level viewing area and there was a dining area that did not have your average food that you would purchase at a movie but at a restaurant. The walls themselves were red and gold and had famous movie posters in frames on the walls. In the middle of it all there was about 50 places to sit and dine before and after the movie which had a few people sitting at but no stars. I was sure I was not going to see any stars before the movie because I knew they would all be outside on the red carpet posing for pictures where we were not allowed to go. I was not sure who I would see in the movie or who I would see after it but I knew I would see someone. It was 7:30 and the lights outside the movie theatre flickered which signaled the people in the lobby to go sit down so the celebrities could come in. We walked up the staircase to go sit down in our seats that were on the second level viewing area. We sat down and watched the people flow in.

We walked out of the movie in shock. That was the most amazing movie I have ever seen. Shane Gray was so hot and gorgeous. I thought to myself. The celebrities were let out before us and returned to the red carpet before they went to an after party. I was really tired and ready to go home since it was about 10:40. My mom wanted to use the bathroom before we left so I had to let her go, I mean what could I do say no?

"I have to go to the bathroom, I'll be right back, I promise, don't move." She said

"Ok I'll be here." I said impatiently. I was waiting there alone, kind of awkwardly when this guy in all black came up to me and introduced himself.

"Hi, I'm Cass." He said in a deep low voice, he had sunglasses on which confused me.

"Umm, hi, I'm Mitchie." I stuck my hand out for him to shake which exposed my purse which he grabbed and started to run off with. I started to panic "HEY! COME BACK! THAT'S MY PURSE! SOMEONE STOP HIM! STOP!" I yelled. I tried to chase after him but I had 4 inch heels on that almost caused me to fall on my face. I couldn't do anything about it now, he was out of my sight and I definitely would not be to catch up to him. I was so upset, I thought to myself that purse had so much in it; I don't know what I'm going to do about not having it… My train of thought was stopped by an unfamiliar tap on the shoulder.

"Does this belong to you?" I heard a man say. I turned around and could not believe my eyes, they had to be lying.
