Inspired by the 1 sentence challenge on Livejournal.
I don't own any of the musical or comedy references.
Written for all the Shannon/Stella lovers out there, especially TheSweetestThing and wicked-nachos-09! Keep up the good work!
#1 - Ring
As Shannon nervously twists her chastity ring around her middle finger, Stella can't help but imagine taking it off with her teeth.
#2 - Hero
Stella emerged from the burning house, assisting an elderly woman, while Shannon watched on with pride.
#3 - Memory
As Shannon cried, Stella quietly vowed to take down whoever had caused her girlfriend this much pain.
#4 - Box
"Just open the damned thing," Stella said, anticipating Shannon's reaction to the ring inside the velvet case.
#5 - Run
Shannon puffed; she felt like she'd been running for hours as Stella lay down beside her, kissing her gently.
#6 - Breathe
When Stella attempted to pull the oxygen mask off her face, Shannon assisted her, kissed her with the whole team watching, then gently replaced the mask.
#7 - Wings
The only time Stella didn't regret getting the angel wing tattoos on her back was when Shannon ran her fingers over them, softly tracing the ink lines.
#8 - Cold
"Stella likes to hog the blanket, especially when she wants me to turn on the heater," Shannon jokes to Josh.
#9 - Red
Stella grimaced, but drank the remainder of the raspberry Cruiser, thinking it tasted no better than cough mixture, but Shannon liked the taste.
#10 - Drink
"I think you've had enough to drink, Stella," Shannon said, attempting to help her girlfriend up; "No way Shan, I'm gonna get smashed, and then I'm gonna smash Lawson."
#11 - Midnight
As the countdown for 2011 hit zero, and the rest of the team cried out 'happy new year!,' Shannon was too busy making out with Stella like a pair of horny teenagers.
#12 - Temptation
"C'mon Shan, you're eleven months and twenty days into your one-year vow, don't you think that's enough?"
#13 - View
As Shannon looked out over the city from the windows in Stella's loft, she felt a pair of arms snake around her waist, and realised that the best view in the city was currently standing behind her.
#14 - Music
Stella's music thumped in the large apartment, Shannon bopping along, as Stella unlocked the door and dropped the groceries in surprise.
#15 - Silk
"Mmm, tell me what you're wearing," Stella whispers into the phone; "those silk sheets you like so much, and nothing else" is Shannon's cocky reply.
#16 - Cover
"Josh, we're going to be late, can you cover for us?," Stella asks into the phone, as she fumbles for her underwear among Shannon's clothes.
#17 - Promise
"Now Shannon, you promise you'll never try to cook in my kitchen again, because it's going to take me hours to clean up this mess."
#18 - Dream
While Stella lay awake, holding her girlfriend in her arms, she was sure Shannon mumbled "Hit him again, Stel, Michael deserves to be hit hard."
#19 - Candle
As the lights flickered out and the thunder boomed, Shannon crossed her small lounge room and pulled out a packet of tea lights and a box of matches, smiling shyly as she says, "there's always something I've wanted to try."
#20 - Talent
Stella's amazed, she had no idea Shannon could sing like Jolene Anderson.
#21 - Silence
Tension fills the room as Stella and Shannon reveal their relationship to the rest of the team, quickly broken by Leon who claps his hands and screams "I KNEW it!"
#22 - Journey
While Stella pursues a bank robber through a busy Burwood East business, Shannon is travelling with Lawson and Christian, hoping to arrive on the scene before Stella is hurt.
#23 - Fire
As Lawson puts more wood in the fire drum, Shannon indulges in a quick kiss with Stella before handing Josh the barbeque plate.
#24 - Strength
"Bet you can't lift me," Shannon claims cockily, squealing when Stella grabs her around the waist and tips them both over onto the couch.
#25 - Mask
As Shannon remained tight-lipped about the events of the day, Stella could almost see her façade beginning to crack.
#26 - Ice
Shannon gasped as Stella crawled into bed after a night shift and cuddled against her, "your legs are like a block of ice".
#27 - Fall
When Stella was hit and knocked down during a violent brawl, Shannon immediately took it upon herself to seek revenge for her girlfriend, knocking the offender out.
#28 - Forgotten
Stella held up the necklace, grinning, "you'd think I'd forgotten our anniversary?"
#29 - Dance
Shannon's eyes were trained on Stella as she danced, as if she was the only person in the world who mattered.
#30 - Body
Hands, Stella had never really thought about them before, but she found herself comparing Shannon's soft hands to her own hardened ones.
#31 - Sacred
"Yes, Stella, I'm aware that we can't legally get married, but our vows still count, alright?"
#32 - Farewells
As Shannon seated herself on the motorbike, Stella patted her on the shoulder, receiving a nod of acknowledgement.
#33 - World
As Shannon's world came crashing down around her, Stella was there, offering comfort and love.
#34 - Formal
While Stella was never truly comfortable in a dress, the thought of Shannon drooling over her at the annual Victoria Police Charity Ball was too good to refuse.
#35 - Fever
While Stella shivered and complained of the cold, Shannon laid a cool hand on her forehead, giving almost instant relief.
#36 - Laugh
Stella couldn't help but fall more in love with Shannon every time she laughed.
#37 - Lies
Stella hated lying, but the look of astonishment on Shannon's face at her surprise birthday party was truly worth it.
#38 - Forever
"That forever and a day, that's how long we'll stay, together and forever more," Shannon whispered into Stella's ear.
#39 - Overwhelmed
As Stella knelt in front of Shannon and fumbled in her jacket pocket, Shannon could not believe what was happening.
#40 - Whisper
There are a lot of things about Shannon that Stella loves - but one of the things she loves the most is the way Shannon whispers her name, in that breathy way, almost begging.
#41 - Wait
"See you tonight," Stella murmured into Shannon's ear; "I don't think I can wait that long," Shannon replies.
#42 - Talk
"If your wife says 'we need to talk', horse shit, start a fire in the house, it's easier to deal with," Michael recites with a fake Southern drawl, as Stella looks at Shannon and rolls her eyes.
#43 - Search
"Try Google, Stel, it's way better than the police database," Shannon advises.
#44 - Hope
As Stella steers Shannon around in the wheelchair unceremoniously 'borrowed' from the hospital, the two women laugh, hoping that Tash won't tell Josh.
#45 - Eclipse
The two lovers sat by the window in Stella's apartment, holding hands as they watch the lunar eclipse.
#46 - Gravity
"I was just testing gravity, and it still works," Stella attempts to explain to Lawson without laughing, as Shannon is standing behind the Senior Sergeant, making faces at her girlfriend.
#47 - Highway
While Stella drove down the Monash Freeway, she knows Shannon is currently driving down the Bolte Bridge, and should be approaching TR2 within ten minutes or so.
#48 - Unknown
"No, Shan, I don't know where your bra is," Stella giggles, as she hides the item in question underneath her couch.
#49 - Lock
"A key to my apartment," Stella announces, and hands the key to Shannon, who pulls a similar item out of her pocket and gives it to Stella; "the key to my house."
#50 - Hurricane
Stella comes with a scream, her hips thrashing wildly, and Shannon is shocked that she is the cause behind this.
A/N: I seriously could not help myself with #20.
And for #21, all I could imagine when Leon is squealing, is the kid on Youtube yelling about his *new* Nintendo 64. Look it up for the effect that I meant.
