Nick stared into Judy's eyes. Those purple eyes were dazzling. Inside, he really wanted to call Judy "cute". Maybe even beautiful. He was strangely attracted to her voice and body, and was almost lost for words when he tried to joke with her. On the other hand, Judy was taking glances at Nick once in a while. Nick's orange fur and his green emerald eyes. God, especially the tail. It looked so fluffy and she was so tempted to punch on it and hug it for the rest of the day.
"Wilde! Hopps! Get back to work!" Chief Bogo's voice blasted out.
The duo jerked, realising that they have been dreaming and got back to their work. Judy looked at her phone. On it was a selfie taken with Nick at Gazelle's concert. It was an amazing performance. She danced till there's no tomorrow. She put down her phone and sighed, and got back to her paperwork.
"LUNCH BREAK!" Nick groaned as the crazy wolf officer sitting behind him screamed.
"Jesus for fuck sake wolfy, keep it down." Nick hissed.
Nick wasn't in a good mood that day. He got up late, got a scolding from Bogo and finally he had to deal with this wolf. As he slumped his face against the table, he heard a familiar voice.
"Hey Nick, wanna go for lunch? We got an hour." Judy asked with a smile.
Nick felt something in him go warm and stingy. He was talking to a girl of his dreams, beautiful, caring and optimistic. He daydreamed as he looked into Judy's eyes.
"Ummmm... Nick?" Judy was starting to get awkward.
"mmmm... Oh. Hi carrots." Nick replied, unaware of what just happened.
"You wanna go now?"
"For what?"
Judy smacked her forehead and dragged him by his tie and got to their favourite donut shop. Judy ordered a carrot honey glazed donut while Nick had a blueberry donut. They sat down with a cup of coffee each in their hand and started eating heartily.
A few weeks ago, Nick had always thought of going to a date with Judy. He had cried, laughed and even talk to himself when thinking of how the date would turn out.
"Oh Nick, you're so handsome," or "You foxes are emotional too." was what he would say in Judy's perspective. However, he would have nightmare about it too.
"Nick, I'm sorry. A fox and a bunny, it's too strange and predator and prey isn't the good match," Judy would say in his dreams.
He would wake up screaming for Judy to come back and start crying. Never had he cried for the last decades, and he felt horrible. He had decided to go on and ask Judy for a date very soon.
Judy, was also attracted to Nick. She had very similar dreams with Nick in it. She would imagine Nick kissing her, and Nick loving her for the rest of his life. She knew Nick had the same feelings too. But her biggest fears were her parents. Sure, Gideon Grey was a friend of them, but Nick? A fox that used to be a con artist and criminal? She wasn't so sure. Judy decided that it was best that they keep their relationship secret... If it was possible. She guessed it was time to ask him out for a date as soon as possible.
"Nick?"
"Mmm?" Nick replied, munching on his donut.
"Do you want to go out for dinner tonight?"
Nick froze. He felt a lump go up his throat and started coughing from the donut. He quickly swallowed his coffee, he was as red as a tomato. His face was redder than his fur.
"Ehhh... Yeah su-sure." Nick stammered, wiping his mouth awkwardly. Inside, he was jumping for joy. "And we can watch a movie? It's all on me." Nick smiled, trying to act like a gentleman by tugging his tie.
Judy sniggered at his weird and awkward behaviour.
"Saharah mall? I heard that they have a new salad store..." Nick suggested, coming back to his own self again.
"Sure. Hold on... Let me check the time..." Judy glanced at her phone. 45 minutes had passed. Time flies, she guessed.
"We got 15 minutes, let's go!" Judy said as she hopped of her chair, heading back to the police station.
From the donut Judy ate, she was already going hype. As she hopped back to the station, Nick smirked at her adorableness.
"Judy hops." Nick whispered, laughing to himself.
"I heard that!"
