That afternoon, Hannah, Grace and Mamrie all grouped at Mamrie's house to watch films together. They all slumped onto the sofa and turned on the TV. Mamrie sat in the middle, with Grace to her left and Hannah to her right.
As they flicked through endless hours of movies, Hannah felt herself slowly moving towards Mamrie. Soon enough, Mamrie would notice her personal space shrinking. Hannah decided to move in all at once, leaning forward and resting her head on her shoulder. Mamrie smiled and looked at Hannah, who looked up to meet her gaze. Hannah felt Mamrie's warmth against her cheek. The world went still and silent and Hannah swore she could hear Mamrie's blood pumping through her veins.

Mamrie looked away. And Hannah found herself looking at her best friend, hopelessly and undeniably... in love with her.

That evening, Hannah went home with Mamrie on her mind. The girls had had fun, filming a great YDAD and another two videos for It's Grace and My Drunk Kitchen. The short-haired, blonde beauty sat down on the edge of her bed and opened her laptop. She got out her camera to begin the long process of editing, when she stopped. She put the laptop on the floor. Fumbling with the buttons on her camera, she switched it on and rested in on the corner of a shelf. Then, she pressed record.

"There's no reason for me making this video. In some ways, I'm doing it for selfish reasons. I made a promise to myself to keep my private life private and so far, so good. But, my private life has never been so exciting... as it is now." Hannah took a deep breath before continuing. "There's this girl, this beautiful girl. I've known her for a while. She makes my heart sing and it's all I can do not to kiss her every time I see her. She's funny and fiery and f-... freaking hot, guys!" Hannah laughed and leaned back further into the safe matress of her bed. "I love her. I love her with all my harto. Bye."

She leant forward and pressed stop. And then, she slept.

**********************************************

It had been a few days since she had recorded that video. Her MDK with Mamrie and Grace had already gone up and had got lots of views but still Hannah's fingers hovered over the upload button every time she got close to sharing it. It was going to be a main channel upload. She wanted everyone to see it.

Do I? Thought Hannah.
Hannah thought with her head. You can't Hannah. You just can't.
Even some parts of her heart felt crushed by the possibilty of everything coming crashing down.
Everything is screaming no. My head, my heart... But my Harto says yes...

Hannah hit upload, and watched the percentage increase slowly like the beating of her heart. All of a sudden, it was done. New main channel video: This girl in my Hart

No description. There wasn't one needed. It was only a minute long and Hannah began to somewhat doubt herself. Well, that was before she saw the comments. A torrent of "awwww"s and "so cute"s rolled in, like after like and hundreds of new subscribers. Hannah spent hours going through each one, smiling and crying and dreaming and wishing...

A knock at the door.

Hannah stood up, shutting her laptop and doing her best to dry her tears. She headed to the front door, her feet making a comforting shuffling sound as she walked. Hand on doorknob, she opened the door...

Lips to lips she felt her insides swell with ice and fire, as her hands became entwined in flowing, ginger hair.

"I have always loved you."
