Dearest Sister,

Day four.  Sometimes things are a little silly here.  I made the mistake of dressing too early today, apparently this is one of the greatest sins for an au pair.  Who would have thought?  Truth be told, I am not troubled by nudity.  Hell, it is not much different to wearing my tee and leggings.  When dressed anyone can look at my body and see exactly what I look like.  And I am happy with my body.  You know I am happy with my body even if it is a little boyish.  I guess because I am naked I am a little more careful about my skin.  Cream more caringly and notice little marks more.  Hey, I have the best body here.  Diane’s breasts droop, her stomach skin is loose.  John has a chubby middle and needs to sort out his body hair.  Peter is too slight and his cock has a hook in it.  There is a freedom to being free of clothes.

Nudity is easy, the bit that is a little more complicated is consent.  I am not sure I am going to be able to write clearly about it now as this morning has been a little strange.  Not worrying, there is nothing to worry about.  It is just a little strange.  So, this morning I provided the main au pair service: I helped Diane and John prepare for sex.  It was fine, they had good sex and I felt good.  I might have felt satisfied with providing a good service or I might have felt a little turned on.  It is tricky working out exactly as it is so different to anything I have done before.  Then there was the weird thing.  Peter assumed he knew how I felt and that it was just like he felt.  Which was weird, but I guess that is how men are.  Or how men can be.  He just wanted to wank to the masters and me sexing.  I didn’t know what to say and just, well, let it happen.  I may be confused but I know for sure I don’t feel like him.

I am off to the shops and the gym now, will write about them later, and maybe I will edit this a little once I have thought more about it all.

Love,
