As you can see from the screen shot below I have used 9.8GB out of 15GB but I thought the storage was unlimited like I've chosen as you can also see in the screenshot. What will happen after I've reached 15GB's? Will I have to buy more storage or is it actually unlimited?

You probably have files other than High Quality Photos and Videos occupying that storage. Take a look in Google Drive.

Unlimited storage is offered for High Quality Photos and Videos, but not for other files. Fill the 15gb and yes, apart from freeing storage by deletions you would have to pay for more storage. Make sure you don't have stuff in there that you don't want.
 
I've just cleared out Google drive as there was stuff in there I didn't need but it didn't make any difference to my storage on Google photos.
