This is my first attempt on writing a fan fiction. So I may not be familiar to the writing style and the formats on this website. Please, do leave some opinions whether you liked it or not, give me some ideas and suggestions as well if you are willing to. Constructive criticism is always appreciated, as it could help me to learn more about the actual "style" of writing a fanfic. English is not my native language (actually Chineseis) so if there are English grammatical or spelling mistakes, do please notify me. Anyways, enjoy this every first fanfic by me and again, please leave some opinions on whether you liked it or not.

"So um…Carrots?"

Judy Hopps, who was concentrating with her paperwork, gave a slight hmm? as a response to her partner, Nick. They've known each other for over a few months ever since the Night-howler case caused by Zootopia's formal mayor, Bellwether. From natural enemies to friends. And now, even partners in the force.

"So, I was wondering…" Nick fiddled with his paws and hesitated for a few seconds, "Are…are you free tonight? I want to take you to a place."

Judy eyes wide, both ears of hers perked up. Slowly turned her head backwards, facing and looked at her partner with astonishment and awe. Did he just really ask her out?

"S..sure. When and where do you want to meet up?" she stuttered.

"At 8pm, I'll wait outside of your apartment. Just wear something casual and ill come pick you up, see you then!" Just after saying that, he let out a slight grin and started heading towards the Precinct front door, leaving.

Judy couldn't help but thought, "now what is he up to now?" She just shook her head and continued on with the finishing touches of her work and handing it to the Chief.

8:01 pm, Grand Pangolin Apartments

Nick was wearing his light green Hawaiian shirt, his tie and a pair of brownish gray pants as usual. He leaned against a tree which was next to Judy's apartment with his sunglasses on, sipping on his coffee whilst poking on his phone with his paws.

Nick heard the door behind him open; he turned his head towards the door only to see a lama exiting the apartment. He sighed and mumbled "where the heck is she at? She should be here by now." and continued poking on his phone. He did not expect Judy to be late at all.

He felt a sudden grip around his waist, which caused him to jump and drop his warm cup of coffee from his hand onto the floor. And he turned his head back, seeing Judy hugging from behind.

Nick just stared at her, eyes wide and ears folded back "Carrots! please for the love of god, don't jump me like that ever again. You just gave me a heart attack!" He did not enjoy that. Not at all, in fact. What a way to ruin a good warm cup of coffee he mumbled to himself. But his face of

Judy, who was wearing a white shirt and a pair of blue jeans. Can't help but laugh at Nick's dumbfounded look on his face, and giggled. "C'mon Nick, don't be mad. At least I'll pay back for the spilt coffee."

But Nick couldn't hear a thing what Judy had said to her, he was still staring at Judy. Her clothing was so simple. Yet, so prepossessing.

"Uh…. Nick? You alright?"

Nick shook his head, coming back to reality. "Huh? Oh yeh, sorry was a bit carried away"

"Why are you still wearing that hideous green shirt?"

"Oh this? I had no other shirts to wear, all of them were dirty. Besides, the color does match my eyes."

Judy just leaned back against the tree which Nick was doing the exact same thing just a moment ago and made a smirk, "pffft, a bunch of leafs match your shirt colour, then why don't you wear them?"

Nick was lost for words at her comment, "I…you..I..mean" struggling to find a comeback comment, but all that came out were stutters and speaking falteringly. And finally he just gave up. "Oh shut up."

Judy giggled, feeling that she accomplished something majorly impressive. "So. Where are we heading? You haven't told me about that yet, Nick."

"It's a secret," Nick replied, "and ill promise that you're not going to regret it. But first, put these on" As he pulled a black piece of cloth out of his pockets, as well as having that signature grin of his on his face.

Judy just stared blankly at the piece of cloth for a few seconds, and snapped herself from her thoughts and asked

"A…are those blindfolds?"

"As as matter of fact, yes, yes they are" Nick grinned, "But I'll reassure you, I won't kidnap you or try to ransom you. You do trust me, right fluff?"

Judy let out a slight groan, "Alright, fine." She was not too fond having a blindfold over her eyes, "but how am I supposed to walk with these things on? I might walk into a pole or something!"

"Oh don't you worry about it Carrots, I've got my car just a few blocks away…"

"Hold on, You have a car?" She interrupted "You didn't steal that from someone, right?"

Nick held up both of his hands in protest, "Ma'am, I'm an honest citizen. I would never do that! Those 200 bucks a day aren't just a made up joke, you know!" his grin widened,"Come on, I'll lead the way to the car, follow me."

They've walked for a few blocks away from her apartment, until they've arrived at Nick's car. He ran up to his car, opening the passenger seat for Judy, gesturing a paw as well as holding the door for her to enter.

"Such a gentle-mammal." She said and got inside the car. Whilst Nick entered the vehicle as well, turned the key and the started the car up. He gestured a hand over his eyes, telling Judy to wear the blindfold.

"Oh, sorry that I forgot about that, my bad." She said as she placed the blindfold over her eyes.

"So, we all set?" Nick asked, whilst fiddling with the dashboard in front of him. Judy replied with a simple mhm and asked "The place you said, is it far from here?"

Nick started to drive away from the parking lot, "You'll soon see, Carrots." He replied.

I know if this does sound kinda boring or un-amusing, this is my first time writing a fanfic. Anyways, thanks for reading this and review this if you feel like it.
