Hosie-Attraction Short Stories

Chapter 15

(7 months into the pregnancy)

"And done." Hope sighs and pulls away the paintbrush.

She climbs down from the ladder and drops it into the paint bucket before she looks at her work.

She has finally finished her painting of the ceiling in their future child's room.

It's simple but it took forever since she had to keep moving the ladder every hour but it was worth it.

It's the night sky with small dots as stars which isn't too much, she didn't know what to draw specifically because she doesn't know what they are having.

'Gender neutral is the way to go.' She thinks as she continues gazing at the ceiling.

'Something is missing.' She narrows her eyes trying to find what it is.

When she figures it out she walks over to the closet with all the baby stuff and shuffled through some things. She finds what she's looking for and closes the closet.

"Hey baby!" She calls as she opens the wrapping on the small bag.

"Yes?" Josie responds.

"Can you help me with something?" She asks and sets the bag on the desk so she can move the ladder accordingly.

"Babe we just had sex an hour ago." She reminds the auburnette.

Hope blushes at her wife's response, "That's not what I meant. I need your help setting up decorations for the room."

Josie chuckles and bookmarked the page she was reading before closing her book and setting it in the book case.

She stands with the help of the chair and walks down the hall toward the room on the left."Okay babe what do you need help with?"

She gasped when she looked at the finished painting, "Oh my- this is beautiful baby." She rubs her tummy knowing their child will like it too.

"Thanks babe. It's just missing one thing." She says shaking the bag.

Josie looks at what she's holding and a smile stretched her lips. "You are a genius."

"I know." Hope shrugs returning her wife's smile. "Can you hold the ladder for me so I can put them up?"

"Can I help? I want to put some up too." Josie says and shoots Hope her signature pout.

"Okay I'm going to let you go first then. I don't want you hurting yourself." She says handing Josie a couple of the glow in the dark stars.

Josie accepts them happily and waits until Hope holds the ladder to climb onto it. "Be careful baby." Hope says as she watches the brunette.

Josie gets close to the top and Hope puts her hand on her lower back to make sure she doesn't fall, well she moves it lower purposefully.

"Hope that's my ass." Josie says as she sticks one of the bigger stars on the ceiling.

"I'm just making sure you don't fall love." Hope replies and grins afterwards.

Josie rolls her eyes and sticks the rest of the stars that were in her hand onto the ceiling, giving them the correct amount of spacing. "Sure you are."

Josie then starts climbing down and Hope helps her to make sure she doesn't fall.

When she reached the floor she pecked her wife on the cheek,"I have to go to the bathroom, I'll be right back." She says before walking out of the room.

Hope climbs up to finish putting some stars on that spot, letting her mind think about her kid. 'I wonder if it's going to be a boy or a girl? I can't wait to find out. Whatever sex the baby is I just hope he or she looks like jo.'
