Chapter 1: Crazy mammals

A very particular couple walked paw in paw down the street and into the famous restaurant of Furchester. The feline waiter guided them to the corner of the restaurant where the view of the entire place could be seen. The male mammal held out the chair for his mate and she sat down elegantly, allowing him to continue his gentlemammaly act. They both smiled as a goat waiter set down a bowl of deliciously dressed salad and a plate of perfectly steamed fish on their table. The two smiled broadly at each other and took their first bite when….

The door of the restaurant burst open with a BANG! The patrons started to run but were all captured in a flash. All were tied up and gagged except for the couple who remain undisturbed. A wolf wearing sunglasses and a black suit strolled up to the couple and bowed.

"Mr and Mrs Scarleski, will you allow us lowly terrorists continue with our business?" The two mammals silently nodded and watched as the terrorists made their demand for money. They sighed as the romantic atmosphere returned,

"How is it going so far?" his mate smiled with satisfaction.

"It is going well. And soon, we will be able to accomplish our goal. Soon, all of Zootopia will realize their mistakes." They smiled happily as they raised their glasses and smirked down upon the unsuspecting citizens of Zootopia.

Hours later, the terrorists were tracked down and captured by the police. Sirens blared as police cruisers drove down the street back to the station. Judy yawned and relaxed in her seat, getting as relaxed as a rabbit could be.

"Tired already, Carrots? Boy I was so sure you'd prove me wrong." She rolled her eyes. She almost wished she didn't need to share the cruiser with her snarky partner, Nick Wilde.

"Har har, I might not have proved you wrong about not being tired till midnight but you definitely can't beat me in a marathon even if I'm tired!"

Nick snorted at her retort. Not that he was denying it, that bunny had a lot of stamina. They laughed as they continued to banter in the cruiser until they reached the station. Judy dashed out of the cruiser and headed for the female locker room, eager to refresh herself with a nice, warm and short, shower. They had the worse time, chasing a wolf terrorist who refused to give up and had tried to escape. He was a tricky one, using the back alleys to distance himself from them. If not for Nick who knew them like the back of his paw they would never have caught him! Nick laid back in the seat for a moment, recalling an embarrassing moment during the chase. To capture the wolf who had climbed up emergency stairs to escape he had to launch the rabbit at him to at least knock him out so they could catch him. While launching the bunny he had secretly admired her small but well-maintained build that made him want to…. He didn't finish the thought and if not for his red fur mammals passing by would be able to see his blushing face. He got out of the cruiser and headed for the male's locker room and hoped the shower would drown out that thought. If only…... he mulled over the thought.

Judy drowned her thoughts in the shower, wanting the pelts of water wash her impossible wish away but it never once did go away. It was like a stain you couldn't get out of your shirt no matter how many times you washed it. She sighed as she thought back to the moments she shared with Nick. If only they were the same species, then maybe she wouldn't stop herself from having fantasies that she knew would never come true. If only they weren't predator and prey, then maybe they'd be more than what they were now. So many if onlys…. She sighed as she thought about how much she… liked being Nick's friend. Cheese and crackers! Even if I wish for it Nick and I can never be together. We are different species! Better yet, natural enemies! Way to pile up the irony…. She rapidly thumped her feet on the floor, nearly slipping. She decided to get out before she hurt herself by slipping on the wet floor of the stall.

Getting out was refreshing, the cold night breeze in his fur and a beautiful bunny awaited him to drive her home. Nick was internally in bliss while he dawned his smug smile to cover up how he felt.

"Ready to go, Carrots?"

"What do you think I'm here for? Hm, Nick?"

Ah. The sweet smile of his partner made him a little happier that night. He snickered and opened the door of the passenger seat open in a gentlemammally fashion.

"Milady?" he snickered. He almost gasped as Judy's ears became a little pink. He wanted to say that 'c' word but held his tongue.

"Are you ready to go home, Milady?" he wiggled his eyebrows for a good measure. Trying to keep his teasing light. The bunny snapped back to reality and awkwardly stepped inside Nick's green car. The fox snickered as he got into the driver seat. They had their friendly banter as usual on the way to Judy's apartment, both secretly at ease in the comfort of each other. Time flew by and they quickly reached Judy's apartment. Both left a little lonely as they waved goodbye to each other, both wishing for a little more time so that they could continue to enjoy each other's company how long they wanted. But they hid their true feelings and kept them under wraps. Nick drove back home which felt like an eternity, entering his apartment he suddenly got a call. He smiled fondly as he saw who the caller was and picked up the phone.

"Hi mom. How've you been?"
