New chapter for you guys, told you I'd try and update soon :)

Thankyou for all your reviews, favourites and follows. I never thought this story would get that sort of response. I am starting to write the next chapter now, so it should be up soonish. :)

I ALWAYS forget this:

Disclaimer: I do not own Rush, if I did it would still be on our screens, and Michael would be alive, and Josh would be back and Lawson wouldn't have slept with Tash, and so on :)


Both TR vehicles glided into the garage within a minute of each other, Stella driving TR2 and Christian driving TR1. All the team members headed to the change rooms, eager to get out of their uniforms and head home, after a long, boring shift.

Stella and Shannon headed to the showers together and Josh made some joke about them getting it on, neither girl really paid any attention, both deep in thought about what questions would be answered, or in Stella's case, asked, that night.

They showered in silence, Shannon was in the cubicle directly to the right of Stella, but decided it wasn't the best place to ask her anything, in case someone walked in and overheard.

After both girls had showered they walked back out to the locker rooms where Lawson and Josh were, Christian must have already left, or he was off annoying Leon.

"You ready to go, Shan?" Lawson asked.

"Um, if it's okay with you, I asked Stel back to mine tonight, to catch up" Shannon replied.

"Yeah, okay. Josh, wanna grab a beer?"

"Why not" Josh answered with a smile.

"See you at home" Lawson added, kissing Shannon lightly on the cheek. He walked out patting Stella lightly on the shoulder.

"Catch ya later, Shannon"

"Bye Josh" she replied with a smile.

Josh walked up to Stella and wrapped her in a hug, "Cya, mole" he said, gently squeezing her.

"Yeah, bye, scarface" Stella retorted, giving Josh a warm smile.

She loved the relationship she had with Josh, he was like an older brother, and he'd been there for her the whole time since Michael died.

Stella and Shannon gathered their gear and Stella ducked home quickly to drop off the stuff she didn't need while Shannon went to the chemist before going home.

Shannon was only home for about 7 minutes when she heard a knock at the door, knowing instantly who it was she didn't even bother to look through the peephole in her door, as she usually did since the rape.

"Hey, Stel, I thought we could order in, Thai alright?"

Stella nodded and smiled at her best friend, before making herself at home on Shannon's couch.

"Wow, Shan, It's so tidy, you've been spending a lot of time at Lawson's obviously, haven't had the chance to mess it up" Stella said with a cheeky smile.

"Shut up, Stella" Shannon added with a laugh, she came over and sat next to her friend with a small box in her hand.

"You gonna do it now?" her expression turned serious as she passed the box over to her friend.

Stella looked down at it and sighed.

"Probably should get it over with, shouldn't I, rather know for sure?"

Shannon nodded, and Stella reluctantly walked to Shannon's bathroom, she didn't think that she'd ever been this nervous in her whole life. Shannon took this time to order dinner, to take her mind off what her best friend was doing, before returning to the couch and biting her nails anxiously.

She pulled one of the small white sticks out of the packaging, then changed her mind and pulled the other one out too, 'two results were better than one right? Even if it was more awkward to do…'

Stella flushed the toilet, washed her hands, and grabbed the sticks and packaging. She headed out to the couch where Shannon was anxiously waiting for her.

"Did you do it?' Shannon asked, while biting her nail

"Did both" Stella said holding them up, "have to wait two minutes before the results will show up".

Shannon simply nodded, this was going to be a long 2 minutes.

Stella placed them on the table, in the box so neither one would see the results before the other.

The wait was a silent and anxious one.
