August Pov

I Really Don't Understand Why Blair Is Still Mad At Me. Like Get Over It. So I Went Over Her House Since That Was The Only Place I Can Go Other than School. So As I Was At Her House She Was Decorating The Room For Her Baby Boy That Was On the Way in A Month."You Still Mad Blair?" I Said As I Helped Her Paint The Walls."I'm Fine." She Said.We Then Painted The Walls In Silence." August Why Can't You Have A Simple Job, Like McDonalds??" she Said,Breaking The Silence." Cause I Wanna Make Big Money. Not The Minimum Wage." I Said As I Painted The Wall.She Stopped painting And Looked At Me."You Rather Risk Your Life For Money Than Have A Simple Job Thats Dumb Asf. That Sh** Aint For You August You Way better Than That." I Then Said" I Know Its Not for Me, But If Selling Weed And Crack gonna Keep Food On The Table, Keep The Lights On And Pays The Rent Thats What I Need To Do. You Don't know What I Go Through.You Don't Know The True Feeling Of Struggling Blair All You do Is Get Paid For Doing Nothing.You Don't Know How It Is To Work For Money Cause you So Use To Having Money handed To You." She then Teared up And Said" August I Never Knew How Bad You Had It. I'm Here Complaining about My Silly Problems, And You Going Through Things Worse Than I Am. I'm So Sorry August." She Then Came to Me And Hugged Me."Its ok Blair." I Said as I Rubbed Her Back. after She Stopped Crying we Continued To Paint.She Then Broke The Silence And Said"why Didn't You Tell Me You Was Struggling You Know I Would Do For You And Your Family." I Sighed And Said "I Know You Would,But I Don't Really Like Begging And Asking For Sh** I Rather Work For It." She Then Said"Oh."Things Then Went In Silence Again. We Were Almost Done painting Just One More Wall To Go. So We Took A Break To Eat. We Sat On The Ground Looking At The Walls As We Ate Our Sandwiches."Soo How You Feeling About Everything?" I said Trying To break The Silence.She Sighed And Said" I Just Want To Get This Baby Out Of Me And Return My Regular Size Because I Need To Get back On Top Of The Game. Brittany Is Just Taking Over. She Goes Out With My Ex Boyfriend Slash Babydaddy And She Is Cheer captain Now And I Just Want my Life Back." I Laughed And Said" I Hope You Know Your Life Is Gonna Be Different Now That You're Having A Baby." She Then Laughed And Said "Noooo Its Gonna Be Same Cause You said Its Your Baby So When I Have This Baby I'm Gonna Give the baby To You And Go Back To My Regular Ways." I Then gave Her Look Like Hell No."Umm That Wasn't Apart Of the Deal." I Said Looking at her Crazy."I'm Just Kidding Aug." She Said Laughing.As She Ate Her Sandwich she Took A Bite Of My Sandwich While I was Staring At The Wall."You Know What Take it Fat A**." i Said As Both Of Us Laughed."noo I'm Good You Can Keep It I Just Wanted To Know How Yours Tasted." She Said Laughing."blair We Got The Same Sandwich Nothing Different About It.Same Peanut butter Same Jelly And Bread." I Said As I Laughed."No Its Different cause You Heavy Handed you Put a Lot of peanut butter And Jelly On Yours."She Said Laughing. I Then Finished Up The Sandwich As She Struggled To Get Back Up."I Guess You Do Know How It Is To Struggle." I Said Laughing As I Helped Her Up.She Rolled Her Eyes And Smiled As She Got Up."I'm Guessing You Want Your Son To Be A Sailor." I Said As I Looked At The Stuff She Bought. She Laughed And Said" Nope I Just Thought It Was Cute,But If He Becomes One I'll Be Fine With It." She Then Began To Paint The Last Wall And I Began To Help. Once We Were Done Painting The Walls We Got Blow Dryers And Blew It To Make The Paint Dry Fast. We Then Got Fans. As The Wall Dried Blair And I Put The Crib Together. I Then Put The Furniture In The Room Once The Walls Were Dry. Blair Then Became A Maniac."August Put The Wheel In The Center...... Highherr....A Little down...That Was Too Down....Ugh Why Can't You Do A Simple Job Let Me do it." Blair Said As She Became Annoyed."You Aren't Tall Enough." I Said Laughing."Ughhh." Blair Said."Ugghh" i said Mimicking her And Laughing."Alright August All I Need For You To Do Is Put It in The Center." She Said It As Calmly As Possible. I Put It In The Right Spot And She Let Out A Sigh and Said" Good Good Everything Is Coming together." She Then Went To The Window Seat And Fixed The Pillows . Even Though It Was Fine She Wanted It To Be PERFECT. She Wanted The Whole Room To Be PERFECT. The Room Actually Turned Out Really Good. "I Did A Good Job." She Said Patting Herself On The Shoulder."You Meant WE Did A Good Job." I Said Correcting Her."Yea We Did A Good Job." She Said Giving Me An High-five."That Was A Lot Of Hard work Now I'm Tired As Hell." Blair Said As She Went Through Her Hair."Me Too." I said As I yawned.We Spent All Night Fixing This Room From 6pm-2am.So We Got in Bed And Watched Tv Until We Both Fell Asleep. The Next Morning Blair Took Pictures Of The Room.She Was So In Love With It.
