Disclaimers on chapter 1

/\/\

It was with great difficulty and reluctance that Lola roused herself from her sleep when the alarm clock went off at eight the following morning. Sitting up and stretching before collapsing back onto her comfy bed as she looked over the events of last night.

She had barely opened the front door to her apartment before stopping in her tracks when she saw what lay inside. Each and every room had practically been flipped upside-down so that there was nothing in its original place. It was as if a bomb had gone off and it did not take two guesses as to who the culprit was; even without seeing the words 'leave my boyfriend alone!' scribbled on the wall with a marker pen.

Seeing that she had nowhere else to stay, Lola quickly managed to salvage some spare clothes from the mess in her bedroom before heading back to a certain jack rabbit's lodgings hoping that his offer of a spare room for the night was still available to her.

Lola was unable to hold in the giggle as she remembered how sweet Bugs was as he tried to cheer her up when he found out what had happened. When he put his arm round her in a friendly gesture, Lola actually found herself trying to refrain from putting her own arm round Bugs. She eventually gave in and hugged the grey rabbit when they stopped outside her room for the night and she could have sworn she heard his heartbeat go from sixty to six hundred upon contact.

It was his final words before heading for his own room that finally stole her heart. Bugs mentioned that he hoped that she considered him her friend and she replied by saying that he was, at least for the moment. She had even kissed him on the cheek in case he did not get the hint although now that she thought of it, she probably sent him into an emergency shut doing that if his previous actions whenever they got close meant anything.

'Who'd have thought Bugs Bunny would have fallen for me of all toons' She thought to herself as she started dressing herself. 'Heck, who'd have thought that I would actually fall for him for that matter'

After finishing getting herself dressed, Lola made her way to the door to her room not realising that it was actually the door to a walk in wardrobe. Instead of exiting upon realising it was the wrong door, Lola grinned to herself when she realised what she had stumbled upon.

'I've been around that rabbit so long I've gained a sense of humour' She mused as she reached for one item in particular she had seen Bugs wear in one of his cartoons. 'I really shouldn't buuuuut, when opportunity knocks, you might as well answer'

-*#*-

"What's up dooooooooc, what's cookin? What's up dooooooooc, are you lookin, for Bugs Bunny buntin, Duck is gonna hunt him, just to get a rabbit's skin, but now dat rabbit's gone again" Bugs sang as he chucked several carrots, ice cubes and two scoops of vanilla ice cream into the blender in order to make a carrot flavoured milkshake.

After finally pulling himself together and getting some shut eye, the super star jack rabbit felt like he was on top if the world. All because he had realised what a certain tan sable meant when she bade him goodnight. Now all he had to do was figure out how to be himself without going all gaga over her whenever she flirted with him. Should be a piece of carrot cake for someone like him, right?

"Good morning" Lola's voice sounded from somewhere behind him.

"I was beginin tah wonder if I was gonna hafta go soichin dah whole house fer yah if yah weren't down in dah next half hour" Bugs joked as he turned to greet his other guest only to freeze up when he saw what she was wearing.

Whether by accident or on purpose, Lola had stumbled across his wardrobe that contained all the costumes he wore whenever he showed his feminine side on screen and was now wearing the little orange dress he wore from his 'Backwoods Bunny' short and whilst he made it look good, Lola...Well it stopped Bugs' heart in a split second to say the least.

"Hope you don't mind me borrowing this" Lola said softly as she walked over to Bugs putting a little sway in her hips.

"N-n-n-nuh-not at all" Bugs stammered trying to keep his cool but failing miserably as his eyes followed the doe's hips as they swayed from left to right as she got closer. "Yu-yah-you can ke-kuh-ko-keep it, if you loik"

Lola smiled sweetly as she closed the gap between her and Bugs until she was close enough to wrap her arms loosely round his neck.

"Y'know, I don't think I properly thanked you for all you've done for me" She said as she trailed a finger up and down one of the jack rabbit's ears making his whiskers tremble at her touch.

"D-der's nu-no-uh-I mean Yu-yah don-er-I mean-" Bugs tried to untangle his tongue to say at least something incoherent but was stopped by Lola kissing him quickly on the nose.

It was just a quick peck, just like last night, but still had the effect of springing to attention before falling over, stiff as a board, and breaking into a thousand pieces.

Lola looked to the screen before asking. "Don't you girl's just hate it when your guy suddenly breaks up with you?"

"I'll see you at later at the gym, Bugs" She said as she made her way to the front door.

Only once she had gotten outside did she suddenly burst out laughing at what she did. Sure it might have been a bit cruel, but there was no doubt in her mind that not only would Bugs bounce back but get back at her in his own way. She was actually looking forward to seeing what he would do.

Slipping off the dress, which had just been put on over her denim shorts and tank top, Lola made to put it on the door step when she noticed a small piece of paper stuck to the back of it. Peeling it off, Lola glanced at what was written on it only to find herself blushing slightly at what it said.

Property of Bugs Bunny
And the dress

"Not just yet, Bugs" She chuckled as she headed off to the gym to get warmed up before the rest of the Looney Tunes arrived.

Meanwhile, back inside, Michael had finally managed to find the kitchen where he found Bugs sitting on the floor gluing the fragments of his legs back together.

"What are you doing?" He asked the rabbit.

"What's it look like, Doc? I'm pullin moiself back tahgether" Bugs replied as he finished off his self puzzle and stood up. "Dere, good as new"

"You forgot the tail" Michael pointed out pointing at the small cottontail that was on the floor behind the jack rabbit.

Picking up the missing piece, Bugs directed Michael to the fridge that had everything but carrots (he had a separate fridge for them) before walking over to the window where he could just see the familiar blonde haired, tanned eared sable walking away.

'I tink a little too much of me's already rubbed off on her' He mused realising it was going to be a little bit harder than he first thought to be himself around her. But that just made it all the more worthwhile.
