Finally, a day off work. At last I have a day to myself to just relax, drink coffee, and just enjoy life. Well, by this I mean research more about Cameron and his creepy and non-existent personal life.
I woke up at 10:30 this morning and made a cup of coffee with some cookies and a packet of chips. Don't question it, and I'm also aware of how unhealthy I am with my snacks.
I jump onto my bed and place my computer on my lap, coffee and fattening snacks beside me. My search begins with YouTube videos. I watch minutes and minutes of video footage from interviews and Q&As but there isn't much that tells me about him.
The sound of his voice makes me weirdly excited. The feeling is unexplainable, to be honest. I like it, but it makes me slightly uncomfortable.
Next I read through documented interviews, but once again, there's nothing that tells me enough to put my finger on his strange mood-swing behavior.
My phone vibrates in my pocket and I pull it out to check it.
Cameron: My parents are taking me to the mall. You want to come with?
I reply with a simple 'That'd be cool, but I'm busy today with school work.'
I know, it's a total lie, but I can't just say 'Sorry, Cameron. I'm too busy stalking you online. Have fun!'
Stuffing my face with chips, I resume my unsuccessful hunt for information.
After a further five minutes, I come across a celebrity interview page called 'FanFeed!', who did a report about Cameron and his girlfriend back in February. I click the link and my heart starts thumping when I read the opening line.
FanFeed!
Disney star Cameron Boyce diagnosed with severe long-term depression after the death of girlfriend Isabella Carpenter.
I skim through the paragraphs, sweating, to find something useful.
Model, Isabella Carpenter, was 15 years old when she committed suicide in her hometown of Los Angeles, California.
I cover my mouth with my hand in shock.
Boyce was later caught driving whilst intoxicated and arrested on charges of drink driving on January 3. He was bailed out seven days after.
I look down from my laptop and find myself crying. Literally bawling.
The couple had a strong relationship, 3 years as of August last year. The following are pictures from Carpenter's last runway show.
I can only look at one picture of Isabella. Personally I've only ever heard  her name, and I'd never really checked out any of fashion shows, but, my god, she was so beautiful.
Guilt and nausea rushes over me and I think of Cameron's random bouts of anger and frustration, all the things we judged him for. It was all because of this.
These past few days he's been so distant and I didn't think much of it. Maybe it's some sort or anniversary for them. Poor thing.
I grab my phone and send him another text at lightning speed.
To Cameron: Forget what I said. I'm coming over to your place now. Don't go anywhere, I need to talk to you about some things.
