Wrong. Pt 2

Chris knocked on Matt's door.

'Hey Matt, dinners ready if you wanna come out.' Chris spoke gently through a crack in the door.

'K.' Matt replied.

Chris left Matt and went back out into the kitchen where Nick sat with all the plates of food ready to be devoured.

Matt emerged from his room with a blanket wrapped around him. He looked awful. It looked like he hadn't slept in weeks, he had dark circles round his eyes, he was sweating and shaking and he was really pale.

'woah Matt. Are you okay?' Nick rushed up from his seat to steady his brother, who looked like he would pass out at any second.

'I'm fine.' Matt groaned and threw Nicks arms off of him.
Chris and Nick exchanged a concerned look but continued with their dinner. Both looking over at Matt every few minutes to check he was okay, as he hadn't spoken the whole meal.

Once they'd finished Matt went back into his room without saying a word.

'What the hell is going on with him!' Chris said, looking at Nick for answers.

'I don't know, I'm worried though.' Nick replied peering round the corner to see Matt's door.

'I'm going to go and check on him, he's been quiet for too long, even for him.' Chris got up from his chair and knocked on his door once more.
'Matt?' Chris said gently through the door. 'Can I please talk to you?'

'Sure.' Matt said, sounding a little upset. 'Come on in.'

Chris entered quietly and closed the door behind him. He looked up and saw Matt curled up in his duvet, crying, shaking and sweating.

'Matt, what's going on, sit up and talk to me. please.' Chris grabbed Matt's shoulder and pulled him up.

'I don't know. I feel absolutely fine but my body is shaking and sweating and I feel as if I should be feeling awful, but I just don't. I'm so confused and I just want my body to feel.' Matt rested his head on Chris and cried.

Chris was so confused, but he still comforted his brother. He placed his hand on Matt's forehead.

'Matt you're burning up.' Chris said, getting more concerned.

'I know, I checked my temperature before. It was 102.3'

'What?! Matt why didn't you say something! That's really high!' Chris rubbing Matt's arm.

'Because I don't feel sick.' Matt was getting stressed and annoyed so Chris just lay there with him and they both fell asleep.

Next morning.

'Good morning.' Nick said as Chris appeared from Matt's room.
'What's wrong with him?' Nick said approaching Chris.

'I don't know. He was shaking, sweating and he had a fever of 102.3 but he says he feels absolutely fine, it's almost like his body is reacting to something that isn't there.' Chris says sinking into the couch.

'That's strange.' Nick says, 'do you want any breakfast?'

'No thank you, not hungry.' Chris is slumping further into the couch thinking about what Matt could possible be dealing with. It kept him up most of last night while they were together, he just didn't understand. So he started googling.

'Heis Syndrome. An immune disease in which the body fights infections that aren't there.' Chris clicked on the sight. This is exactly what Matt had been describing.

'I've got it.' Mumbles.
'What do you mean?' Nick says, drawing his attention away from his phone.
'I know what's wrong with Matt.'
'Tell me.' Nick gets up from the table and sits down next to him, he reads the computer. 'Is there a cure?'

'No.'

*sorry guys, I didn't really know how to end this one, hope you enjoyed.*
