Hannah looked at him, getting nerve wrecked as he was hesitating. "I think that was amazing and I have never heard anything like that before. I want to hear more of your music. I'm gonna sign you." Grace's eyes widened as she squealed happily for her and giggled. Hannah sat there in shock, her eyes wide and her mouth open in awe. Mr. Penna looked at her and chuckled before going over to her and shaking her a little. She snapped out of it and a wide smile appeared. "Oh my goodness! Thank you! Thank you soooo much!" DeStorm laughed and nodded as he went over to her to give her his card. "Give me a call at around 12:30 tomorrow and we can discuss the contract and everything." Hannah nodded quickly, taking the card before holding out her hand for his to shake. He took her hand and shook it before feeling his phone vibrate and ring. 

He let go of her hand and waved to them as he left , answering the call. Grace ran up to Hannah and gave her a huge hug and a kiss on her cheek. Mr. Penna gave Hannah a hug as well and Hannah looked at the both of them. "Thanks Mr. Penna for getting him! And thanks Grace for pushing me to do this. This is gonna be so much fun!" Grace laughed before hugging her again and Mr. Penna nodded. "I'll see you ladies later, I have some grading to do." Mr. Penna waved as he left. 

Hannah put her guitar away and she put her book in the case as well before taking Grace's hand and leaving the room. Grace smiled and looked at her, "I think this calls for a celebration drink." Hannah giggled and nodded "Let me take my stuff to our dorm first." Grace smiled and nodded, "Alright, alright." Hannah walked to their dorm and grabbed her keys out of her pocket. She unlocked the door and walked in, holding the door open for Grace. 

Grace quickly followed her in and watched Hannah as she put her guitar on the bed and grabbed her bag. Hannah made sure she had her license and some money in her bag and she looked at Grace. "Ready ready?" Hannah looked at her and smiled. Grace chuckled and nodded "Ready freddy!" Hannah rolled her eyes and walked out of the room, Grace following, locking the door behind her. Hannah walked towards her car, looking around at some of the people walking around campus. She unlocked the car and went to the passenger's side, opening the door for Grace. Grace giggled and got in, "Thank you milady." Hannah chuckled and nodded 'You're welcome." She closed the door and quickly went over to the driver's side and got in.

Hannah started the car and the radio was playing 'Bang Bang' by Jessie J, Ariana Grande, and Nicki Minaj. Hannah rolled her eyes and turned it off. "I hate all this brainless music playing today..." Grace nodded, agreeing slightly. "I still like it." Grace turned back on the radio and started dancing to it. Hannah pulled out off the parking lot shaking her head and giggling at Grace. She started driving to a nearby bar, looking around at the different cars and people as she was driving. 

She pulled up to the bar 15 minutes later and she parked her car, quickly getting out and jogging over to Grace's side and opening the door for her. Grace smiled and got out, looking at Hannah. Hannah closed the door and clicking the lock button on her keys until she heard the 'beep' noise. She took Grace's hand and walked into the bar, holding the door open for Grace and a couple of other people that were walking in at the same time they were and she followed them in. She went back to Grace and walked towards the bar, sitting in one of the seat. 

Grace sat down next to her and looked at the bartender, "Give us a drink that you think is best suitable for an awesome celebration." The bartender chuckled and he looked at them, "What's the occasion?" Grace smiled, "This girl right here just got signed to a music producer." The bartender smiled wide and looked at them, "I got the perfect drink for that kind of celebration." He winked and went off to make their drinks. Hannah giggled and looked at Grace, holding her hand and kissing her quickly. Grace blushed a bit before pulling Hannah close by her collar and giving her a long, lingering, passionate kiss. 

Some sober people were walking by and they were looking at them in disgust, rolling their eyes. "Fags.." One woman said as she walked by, going to the bathroom. Hannah heard the woman and broke the kiss, looking at Grace. Grace shrugged it off and shook her head, "Just ignore them. Let's not let them ruin our day." One drunk guy looked at them and laughed drunkily, "Aw why'd ya stop? That was hot." Hannah and Grace ignored the comments before the bartender came back with their drinks "Here ya go!" Grace caught a look at his name tag and she smiled, "Thanks, Ray!" He nodded and went off to serve other customers.

Grace held up her drink to Hannah and smiled, "Cheers to a wonderful musician, whose work is starting to get noticed." Hannah held up her drink as well and giggle shyly, "Cheers." They clinked their glasses and took a sip of their drink. "Mm that's so good." Hannah said as she took another sip and Grace nodded in agreement. 

A couple of drinks later, Hannah started feeling a bit drunk and she sighed, "Damn, I can't drive like this." Grace was sipping on her drink and she was already drunk, "Well what are we gonna do then?" Hannah shrugged before chugging the last of her drink and hiccuping a little. "I have never gotten day drunk before.. So this is all just so weird..." Grace giggled and kissed Hannah. "How about we just drive, we are only 15 minutes away. It isn't that bad." Hannah nodded in agreement before paying Ray and leaving the bar, Grace following. Hannah stumbled over her own feet a little as she walked out, Grace doing the same. Hannah got to the car and looked for her keys, before finding them in her bag and as she was about to try to unlock the car, Ray ran out. 

"Hey! My shift just ended, how about I drive you guys back home and I'll just catch a bus back home. You are drunk and you shouldn't be driving." Hannah looked at him "We don't even know you, and you were the one giving us the drinks." She slurred and leaned against the car. Ray sighed and took the keys from Hannah and unlocking the car. Hannah went and got in the back seat, Grace getting in the passenger's seat. Ray got in the driver's seat and looked at them. "Where do you live?" Grace looked at him, "in the dorms of that one college not so far from here. 

Ray chuckled and understood what she meant and he started the car, turning down the music that was blasting in the car because of Grace and he drove them back to the college. Hannah started feeling nauseated and she threw up in the back seat. "Aw man.. Now i have to clean this up..." She sighed and Ray quickly rolled down the windows and held his nose slightly.

Once he arrived he helped Hannah and Grace out the car and Grace was directing him towards their dorm. He unlocked the dorm room and he walked them to their bed and he looked at Hannah. "Where are your towels?" Hannah buried her face in the pillow and pointed towards the small lining closet in the corner of their room. He went and got a couple of towels and her found some Resolve and he went and cleaned out their car.
