Surprises
By: Renofoxtrot
Judy looked at her phone with a little bit of annoyance and joy. She loved talking with her parents, she really did. Till her father started to go on and on about a certain rabbit buck that he had been talking to, and giving her his number. Her ears drooped and she told him what she always did, that she was to busy and not ready to start any sort of relationship. Which wasn't a total lie, well it wasn't a few months ago before she started a relationship with her fox partner of two years. Now it was just building up the courage to tell her parents that she was in love with a fox.
Every time her father or mother brought up a new bunny husband prospect she almost gave in to telling them, it would be completely worth the shock on their faces and to keep them from going on and on about the random males they were trying to set her up with.
"Judy, at least just call this one. He sounds very nice and is willing to move to Zootopia! It's perfect!" Her father was almost begging at this point.
"Dad, please just stop. I appreciate it but I'm just not interested, and besides now is NOT the right time to be meeting any new bucks."
"But why Judy? Isn't it time to start looking into having a family of your own?" Her mother, a soft voice in the back.
"You're not getting any younger Jude."
The young doe just roller her eyes and sighed at her parents, just about to start into why having kits with her job do not work.
"How about this, you come and meet him and if you still don't like him we will stop completely." Her mother offered.
This was tempting, and would give her the perfect chance to tell them about her feelings and relationship with Nick. She had plenty of saved up days off from work, so she nodded taking up the offer.
"Fine, as long as you promise to not try and set me up with another buck. I appreciate the effort, I really do. But I just prefer to find myself a mate."
"Ok, Jude, would you be able to come out this weekend?"
"Yeah, I have plenty of saved up vacation days so let me tell work and I'll be out Friday. See you all then, love ya." With that she hung up and laid back into her bed, getting a fresh push of Nick's scent from the bed. Letting herself get lost in the musky violets, she rolled a little in bed and pulled the blankets around her and let herself fall asleep.
Judy watched as the sign of Bunny Burrow came into view, a small bag over her shoulder as she walked towards the doors. She could see the mass of bunnies waiting on the platform, a nervous flutter went through her stomach. Making her feel a little sick, her foot thumping from nervousness and excitement. She did love her family, even if they were a little overbearing, and she had missed them a lot. The police bunny was greeted with a massive amount of hugs and cheers from her siblings and parents. As she wrapped her parents in a hug she noticed the odd bunny out of the group. A few inches taller than her siblings and his black tipped ears and black stripes on his cheeks, he stood out rather easily.
"Oh Judy! This is who we were talking about!" Her mother waved over the rabbit over, wearing a black suit and a warm smile he walked towards them.
A groan was earned from Judy, she did not expect them to have him here at the train station.
"Jude, this is Jack, Jack Savage." Her father beamed, his paw on the male's shoulder. "Mr. Savage, this is Judy, who've we gone on about sfor so long." Stu looked like was introducing the two as newlyweds.
Judy smiled polity and offered her paw for a pawshake. A smile on Jack's muzzle returned her greeting and he gently took hold of her paw. Instead of shaking he brought it up to his muzzle, but just before his lips could meet her fur she pulled her paw away. Her thin friendly demeanor broke for a moment, but a glance at her surprised parents forced her to smile.
"Sorry, not...use to that." She laughed a little nervously, running a paw over her ears, trying to hide her aggravation.
"My mistake." He smiled, a charming smile that would melt any other rabbit doe. "A little old fashioned." But she wasn't any other rabbit, she was trained by the most charming fox of Zootopia. She returned the smile, with a smirk matching her fox's.
"Making of a good husband, eh Jude!" Her father patted her back, trying to usher her closer to Jack. She rolled her shoulder and backed away from the three rabbits, raising her paws up.
"Dad! Stop, please." She looked over to Jack, she felt a little bad. It wasn't his fault that her parents didn't know she was taken. Sighing, her ears drooping down and she handed her bag to her mother. "Jack...can I talk to you in private."
Suddenly six ears were up high in surprise, two older rabbits excited and one confused younger buck. The buck nodding, following her off the platform to a field, far enough away from bunny hearing.
"I'm sorry about my parents, they are a little...well I mean they mean well." She shook her head, a headache growing and her nausea was back. It was her fault so much pressure was put on herself right now. Not her parents, not Jack, just her own fear of telling her parents she was with a fox.
"I can understand, my parents are a little overbearing themselves, but mean well." Judy cuts him off from going on more.
"I don't want you to get the wrong idea, Jack, my parents don't know something and it's my fault. I haven't told them that I'm..."She pauses, thinking about Nick for a moment. "I'm taken. I have a boyfriend."
Jack ears drooped, but his smile stayed.
"Well, can't say I'm not dissapointed. With how your parents talk about you, and what you've done in Zootopia, you are a hell of a bunny Judy. But why would you not want to tell your parents about you already having a buck?"
If it wasn't for her headache she would have laughed and blushed at his compliment. She moved a paw over her stomach, rubbing a little to try and settle her stomach.
"It's because he's a fox." She shook her head, "And my parents, havn't...been the most..open with foxes.." Her vision blurred and she found herself falling, her vision going black before hitting the ground.
