The Gazelle concert had just finished and everyone was slowly filing out, while he hadn't wanted to go at first, Nick had fun. Although the only reason he had fun was because of one Judy Hopps. If she hadn't pressured him into going with her then he would've missed out on so much fun messing around while dancing with her.

God she's so beautiful… Nick started thinking while looking at Judy. Wait… what. No she's just my partner and a BUNNY! I can't think about her like that, he scolded himself. But then he realised that he had been thinking about her in this way since the moment that he was hustled by her… that was the moment that he started having feelings for her. He started wondering if she had feelings for him seeing as how she was the one who managed to get him here… Then he noticed that they were outside now, and that he'd been ogling at her this whole time. A blush creeped up on his face but was unnoticed by everyone because of his vibrant red fur.

All of a sudden Judy did a 360 degree jump, and it felt like time slowed down and the wind picked up to blow leaves behind Judy in such a manner that she looked like a bunny ballerina dancing through the forest.

When she landed, she turned around to look at Nick and noticed the look in his eyes that she had only seen once before, which was when she hustled him into helping with the missing mammal's case. "Hey Nick, what's wrong, what happened?" Judy asked simply.

Nick, who was just getting over his phase of being stunned once again by her beauty heard her question and replied with a simple, "Nothing Carrots, it's nothing".

Unbelieving, Judy just replied back to him with a sly answer, "Oh really... Well I do believe that is a lie my sly fox."

Nick's heart skipped as he reflected on what she had just said, my sly fox. My. She had just called him hers. He tried to hide a smile that was creeping up on his face but to his avail, he failed miserably and just ended up smiling giddily.

"It's nothing Carrots. It's absolutely nothing," unsure of whether this little bunny had feelings for him or not he decided to just stick with his story of it being nothing.

"Well then, when it turns into something let me know," Judy replied simply.

"Okay then Carrots," Nick stated with a sly smile. At least she doesn't suspect anything.

Nick isn't telling me something, Judy thought as she was contradicting Nick's last thought.

Nick and Judy had just entered the carpark of the stadium when Nick's heart leapt almost out of his chest just as it had when Judy had bumped him during the performance to get him to dance with her. Then he squeezed the hand that was now entangled with his. Nick's heart was going ballistic because as he looked at the person attached to the hand, why's Carrots holding my hand.

"I had a great time tonight Nick, thanks for agreeing to come here with me," Judy blurted out with a blush showing clearly.

"I did too Fluff, thanks for making me come along," Nick replied with a genuinely happy smile.

What happened next would haunt Nick's mind for a long time and give him hope for a future with her...
