23rd August 2014

It's been that I moved in at the mansion and transferred in this prestigious school. Everything is good. Matthew and often do a study buddy time sometimes Ted join us and sleep overnight at the mansion. I like this way that Matthew and I are close. He treat me like a friend in and outside the mansion despite that I work at them. The hot jockey guy tried to date me , he's smart guy though and gentleman but I dumped him. First reason, I don't like him and second I don't wanna be a famouse person just because people know that we're dating. Lastly, the one I love is always right beside me, Matthew. Even if he doesn't know that I like him, it's enough to me that we're good friends. What more do I want?

It's 6am in the morning. And our class is 8am so just in time to prepare food for De Neiro family.

I served the food at the long dining table. Then I hear footsteps at the stairs. It's probably Mr. and Mrs. De Neiro. The aroma of the brewed coffee can be smelled at the dining room.

"Good morning Mr. and Mrs. De Neiro, the breakfast is ready. The newspaper has arrived also for you,sir." as I served the food on the table.

"Do you need anything else before I call Matthew upstairs?" I ask the couple with a smile on my face.

"Nothing, darling. Go call him, you two are gonna be late for school." Mrs. De Neiro told softly.

So I walk out the dining and went upstais to check on Matthew. When I walk in , he's still in his bed in deep sleep. I sit beside his bed and wipe out his blanket. He's pink and looks like he's not going to school.

"Matthew , the breakfast is ready. You should wake up we're gonna be late at school." I told him and put my hand on his shoulder. He's hot. No, literally. He's sick.

"Matthew, your fever is so high. We gotta take you to the hospital." I panickly told him and I was about to leave and tell his parents when he grabbed my hand and pushed in his bed. He hugged me tight and very close to him. I don't know what to do and I feel like I'm freezing. Does he knows what he's doing?

"Matthew what are you doing? I gotta tell your parents that you're sick." I shoved his hands off me because I have to even if I want to stay longer in his arms.

"No. Please don't tell them. I don't to admitted in the hospital. I just want to rest here. I'm gonna be okay. Would you bring me some medicine?" he said in weak voice

"Okay fine. But I'll have to tell this to your parents. For them not to be worried about you. I'll be back in a minute. " I explained.

As I went downstairs, Mr. and Mrs. De Neiro had finished eating and already at the door to leave.

"Oh there you are darling. What took you so long? Where's Matthew? Tell him that we have leave early. We have a flight to europe for our one week business trip." Mrs. De Neiro told me while she's putting her thick fur jacket.

"Matthew has a high fever, madame. And I told him that I'm gonna call the emergency to take him to the hospital but he doesn't want to. " I explained at them and they looked shocked when the heard it.

"Oh my. I want to take care of him but I'm afraid that we can't postpone this business trip it's at risk. " Mrs. De Neiro said worriedly.

"What can we do? Uhm, here's our card. Call us and update us whatever is happening here. We'll call the school to excuse you two for today's class. I'm sure that they'll understand. Take care of our son,selena. We trust you very much." Mr. De Neiro assured me and handed me their call card.

"I'll take care of him. I'll just call you if he gets better. We're surely gonna be okay here ma'am and sir. Good luck on business trip and have safe flight." I waved at them as the car began to disappear along the road and closed the door.

I went to the kitchen and grabbed a basin poured it a cold water and soak the bath towel. I grabbed 2 tablet of tylenol for fever, prepared him a soft meal to fill his empty stomach. I asked help to one of the maid to help me bring it upstairs.
As I walk in to his room he's still asleep. I put hand on his forehead to check his fever and he's still has a high fever. So I put the damp bath towel in his forehead to cool down his body temperature. Cleansed off his arms to release the heat of his body.
While I wipe his arms, seeing him asleep with that angelic face and very innocent that feels so weak. Feeling his toned muscles,smooth fair skin, touching his perfect jaw line down to his throat is the most sexiest one I have experience. I never touch a guy before or even slept with a guy. He opened his eyes and caught me staring at him. I don't know how to react so I just offered him to eat because he have to take the medicines already.

"Are you staring at my body? " he joked at me.

"No ,I'm not. " I denied and put the tray beside his bed.
"You should eat. You can't take medicines with an empty stomach." I told him as I help him to sit in bed.

"Feed me ,please? I'm so weak I can't even raise my finger." He pouted at me and made a cute face that you can't decline.

Whenever he did that angelic beautiful face, I can't do anything but to do it. Even if he's weak, he's still charming.

So I feed him with a chowder soup and fruits to help him recover faster. He doesn't have that appetite so he finished quarts of it. Then take his medicines.
He rest again and I leave the room to let him rest.

I went downstairs to laundry some few clothes and then cooked something for lunch. I can say that cooking is my forte so when I graduate in highschool I'm gonna pursue culinary arts.
Thinking that Matthew and I will be alone for a week in this mansion is the most happiest part of my life at the moment.
His family treated me like a part of their family,too. His parents are too good to be a boss. They let me go home once a year to be with my family that's I still get to see my siblings and my parents. They know that I'm in good hands and I am giving them a good life. Although, sometimes I feel home sick but atleast the feeling that I give a lot of help to my family takes away that feeling.

It's almost evening as I went upstairs to check on him. His fever lowered a little but still not okay. So I put an ice pack on his forehead this time. Unfortunately, he began to shiver and shaking. I began to panick and don't know what to do. I was about go downstairs to call for a help when he called my name.

"Selena... Selena don't. leave. me... Stay with me..." he said as he shiver and teeth gritting.
