Unexpected Pregnancy

Panicking love (12)

Hope's POV

I have been awake for two hours now thinking non-stop

Josie is still sleep I don't have to wake her  up until 7 it's 6AM!

I got to figure out to get my life together and started Josie will be 2 months next week I have to find her a doctor out here for now since aunt Keelin is in New Orleans and I'm going to get a Job

I'm 18 already graduated from school and I have a pregnant girlfriend I can paint,fight,cook, and clean now that I think about it I'm basically good at everything but I want to work for something I'm passionate about-

I get interrupted from my thoughts by my alarm damn it's been an hour already

Hope: Josie...Josie

Josie hums but doesn't wake up

Hope: wake up mamas you got to get ready

Josie: nooo

Hope: yes you only have 5 months left until you graduate...

Josie: I'm too tired

Hope: how about this when your done with all your classes we will have a relaxing day

Josie: will you give me a massage

Hope: yes mamas I will give you a massage

Josie sighs then finally gets up to get dress while she gets dress I grab my laptop to look for some jobs

Josie: Hopey!

Hope: Yes!

Josie: have you seen my flat iron

Hope: it's under the sink in the back mamas

Joise:...I found it thank you

Hope: your welcome

As I was scrolling I see a application from a publishing firm for arts they need a client with excellent art skills now I don't have a degree or anything but I know how to paint and I know mostly everything about art I'm going to apply for it they also want proof I can paint so I'm going to need to bring one of my paintings

I fill out the application just as I finish it I stop before I send it do I really want to do this

I bite down on my bottom lip and send the email I close my laptop and take a deep breath I can't beleve I applied for a job for painting-

Josie: baby!

Hope: yeah

Josie: you ok I keep calling your name

Hope: sorry mamas I was in my head

Josie: is everything ok

Josie walks over to me and move my laptop so she can sit on my lap

Hope: yeah I just applied for a job at a publishing firm for arts as a client

Josie: that's wonderful Hopey...but why aren't you happy about it you always wanted someone to see your art and be a famous painter one day this is the first step

Hope: I know (sighs) but I didn't go to college that was supposed to be the first step I'm 18 young with no experience

Josie: that's not true baby yes you are young but you are an amazing painter and over a thousand years of painting and art knowledge because your dad is also an artist and taught you everything you know now don't think about that think about whether you think it's right for you or not I would say go for it this is your dream and you finally get to live it
