New challenge (Part 29)

Everyone followed them to Hannah's place. This needed to be celebrated.
As soon as she got home, Hannah put Alex on the ground, "Go on baby, now you can put on your onesie."
Alex cheered and ran to her room.
"I'll go help her out." Grace said, releasing Hannah's hand and following the girl to her room.
"Hannah," Mamrie pulled the younger girl apart, "All mom-jokes aside, sweetheart, I am so proud of you."
Hannah pulled the redhead into a hug, "Thanks Mamrie. I am so happy, I didn't ever think it was possible to be this happy."
"You deserve it." Mamrie said honestly, squeezing Hannah's shoulder before stepping away and leaving Hannah by herself in the corner of her living room.
Hannah took her alone time to look around. All her friends were so happy. She was truly blessed to have these people in her life.
She spotted Chester, who was awkwardly standing on the other side of the room. Hannah sighed, time to bury the hatchet.
"Chester, come here dude." She called him over.
"Uh hey Hannah. Congratulations." He stuck his hand out.
"Friends don't shake hands." Hannah smiled, tackling the man in a hug.
"I'm sorry Hannah, I was an asshole."
Hannah nodded, "You were. But that's all in the past now. I want you to apologize to Alex though."
"I will!" Chester agreed quickly.
Hannah smiled at him, and then noticed Grace walking back in the room.
Chester noticed how the blonde's face lit up when she saw the brunette.
"I don't think I've ever seen you this happy before." He commented.
"I've never been this happy before." Hannah said, "Excuse me."
Hannah walked over to Grace and didn't stop until her body was completely flush with Grace's.
Grace automatically wrapped her arms around Hannah.
"Are you okay?" She asked, concerned by Hannah's need for physical contact.
"I don't know," Hannah whispered, "I don't think it has fully sunk in yet. I feel like this is all a dream."
"It's the most wonderful dream ever." Grace whispered back, kissing the top of Hannah's head.
Hannah broke the embrace when she felt a tug on her pants. Alex stood next to her wearing her carrot onesie and Hannah's own Tumblr snapback.
"Hey baby, where did you get that?" Hannah laughed, lifting the girl in the air. The snapback was so big on the child it fell over her eyes.
"She really is a Hart." Grace joked, lifting the cap so it wouldn't cover the girl's face anymore.
The sound of the doorbell surprised Hannah.
"That's the pizza!" Swike called, "You can't throw a party without food Hannah."
Hannah rolled her eyes, typically Swike.
"And don't worry! It's all vegan!"

At the end of the day, it was just Hannah, Grace and Mamrie. And Alex of course. That little nugget wasn't going anywhere.
"Hey Hannah, we kinda have a surprise for you." Mamrie said.
"Oh, you do?" Hannah asked, "Wait, is this the secret Alex keeps talking about?"
"Yeah," Grace said, "I'll go get my laptop."
Grace quickly returned with her laptop and pulled up a video file.
"Here, just press start." She put the laptop on Hannah's lap.
Hannah pressed start, and saw Mamrie appear on the screen.
"Hi! And welcome to You Deserve A Drink! IIIIII'm Mamrie Hart!" Mamrie pointed toward herself.
"And I'm Grace Helbig!" Grace jumped in the screen.
"And who do we think most deserves a drink this week? Well it's everyone favorite toddler..." Mamrie started.
"...With the cutest mother." Grace finished.
"It's Alex everyone!" Grace picked up the girl and lifted her in screen.
"If you haven't heard, Alex here got put into permanent custody with Hannah today, and we know she's gonna need a drink!" Mamrie said.
"So today we're making an alcohol free Aloha Alex!"
Hannah had to wipe away a tear when Alex started listing of the ingredients with Grace's help.
"Guys, this is beautiful." She choked out when the credits rolled, "Thank you so much."
"It was Grace's idea." Mamrie shrugged.
"You like?" Alex asked eagerly.
"I love it sweetheart." Hannah smiled, "This is the best gift ever."
Alex went to cheer, but instead yawned loudly.
"Well, I guess that's my cue to go home." Mamrie smiled, "Have a good night guys. And sleep tight little Carrot!"
"Bye Auntie Mames!" Alex waved.
"I'll walk you to the door," Grace stood up.
Mamrie pulled a face, "Don't be stupid, I'll let myself out. Bye guys!"
Hannah let out a deep breath when she heard the front door fall shut.
"What a day."
Grace giggled, "You got that right."
"Let's put this little one in bed." Hannah mumbled, poking Alex's sides.
"Hers or ours?" Grace asked.
Hannah smiled widely, "Ours."
"I'm sorry." Grace blushed, "I didn't mean to..." "It's ours Grace," Hannah interrupted, "It's our bed."
Alex yawned again, "Sleepy time?"
"Yes princess, let's get you in bed."

Hannah woke up that night. She looked at Grace and Alex snuggled up, fast asleep next to her.
She quietly got up and sat in the leather chair in the corner, watching the two girls in her bed.
She'd always thought she was a loving person. She wasn't the most fortunate girl growing up, but she had overcome those obstacles. Not just overcome, she had conquered them.
She trusted people, she was kind, reliable and she tried to spread happiness and love.
But now, Hannah started to realize that she never truly understood love. As she looked at the little girl, her little girl, and Grace, she felt true love for the first time.
As if she could sense that she was being watched, Grace's eyes fluttered open.
"Hey." Hannah whispered.
Grace groaned, "Why are you awake baby?"
"I don't know. I was watching you two."
"Creep." Grace mumbled, "She's beautiful isn't she?" she tenderly stroked the sleeping girl's cheek, "My little princess."
"She loves you." Hannah said.
"She loves you too."
Hannah sighed, "If we fuck this up, we'll break her heart."
"We won't fuck up." Grace assured her, "Now come back to bed babe."
"Our bed." Hannah whispered, getting under the covers.
"Yeah, our bed." The older woman agreed, intertwining their hands and letting them rest on the girl in between them.
"Our house?" Hannah asked carefully.
Grace bit her lip, "Our house."
Hannah gently tugged on Grace's hand, pulling the woman closer to her. Grace smiled shyly, leaning in. Their lips met in the softest of kisses.
Hannah's inside turned to mush. She was kissing Grace! It was better than she had ever imagined. Grace tasted like fireworks, and rainbows and happiness.
"Eeeeew!" Alex's voice broke them out of their embrace, "Icky!"
The two women burst out laughing.
"Oh, you think kisses are icky, huh?" Hannah teased, poking Alex.
The girl giggled and squealed as Hannah and Grace pounced on her, smothering her with kisses, tickles and love.
