I was sitting on the ground playing with Darcy when my phone started to go off. No one ever called me except for Alfie. I answered it right away.
"Alfie? What's wrong?" I asked quieting down Darcy so I could hear him. It was silent on the other side of the line for a really long time and I was starting to get nervous. I finally took a breath after Alfie spoke. The words he spoke almost took my breath away again.
"Todd's dead." There was no emotion and Alfie sounded absolutely shredded. I didn't believe him at first.
"What?" I asked, Darcy continued to ask me questions about who I was on the phone with but I ignored her. My heart had dropped the instant Alfie told me what happened. It dropped even lower when he repeated it.
"He's dead Zoe." I then asked Alfie if he wanted me to go back. I really didn't want to, but this was important to Alfie and if he wanted me to go back I would. I loved Alfie and I would do anything for him. He told me I didn't have to though. I was devestated for him.
Darcy then realised that I was talking to Alfie and she chimed in. She wanted to talk to him. I handed the phone to her and she held it to her ear quickly making my heart melt. She said hi to Alfie and said that she loved him. I loved Darcy and Alfie both so much.

The next day Louise and I filmed so many videos I felt like I might never film again. It was tiring work, but it was so much fun. I hadn't spent a lot of time recently with Louise and it was fun for us to hang out again.
I thought about Alfie the entire day though. I wished that he was with us.
