Nick woke up ten minutes before work started, he quick stuffed his uniform in his bag and bolted to the station.

Nick was feeling terrible. He didn't sleep, only thinking of failure and how much it sucked. He knew how to fix his problems but bending his pride to fix it was another matter he didn't know how to fix it. The solution was seeing people he didn't want to see. Blind and arrogant was such a description Nick had for these 'people.' In his mind, they were his only solution.

Vixie Sat her desk starting at a blank screen. She sat like that for five minuets until Beltran came around the corner. She didn't look up at him.

"What's wrong with you?" Beltran said in his low accent with a coffee in hand. It was early in the morning.

She sighed and rubbed her forehead. "You know how I was around hot guys like three years ago."

Beltran blushed. "Absolutely, it's how I first met you." He said reflecting on a memory.

"Well I did it again."

"The red fox?"

"Yeah. And I feel terrible."

"My mother told me once when I 'stayed the night' at some cats house. How can you wake up with someone you don't love and not be fazed by it. I am sure you're experience was not quite as bad as that."

"I was making out with him as his girlfriend walk in to see us." Vixie said and Beltran clinched his face.

"That's pretty bad."

"The worst part about it all is that I think I have a crush on him and I was completely fine ruining that rabbits heart."

Beltran looked up from his coffee. "A rabbit?" She nodded. "That's an interesting relationship. Sorry for mess though, you think you can sort it out."

Vixie rubbed her the sides of her head. "I don't know, I just feel weird right now."

Nick walked to Judy's office she was getting ready for the assignment for that day. Coronado had already gave her the files and Nick was shaking to greet her. He looked over the cubical wall to hid his seizing hands.

"Hey." He tried to act casual.

She gave him a side ways glance. "Hey."

"Judy I know I messed up, like bad. And I am going to ask you to ask me if need help?" He said with his ears back and his mouth slightly open, he just realized how stupid that sounded.

Judy rolled her eyes. "Stop flattering you're self."

Nick slowly built more courage. "I am serious-" he was cut off.

"No, I am not going to talk about this right now. Right now we are parterns and we are going to work understand." Nick swolled and nodded. "Good." She made short work of him.

They still had an hour before the teams had to head out to the streets. Nick went to his own office and sat. With in a few seconds he stood and walked out to the main hall of the station and looked up towards the roof.

Vixie was also in the hall and she saw Nick start up the stairs. I need to talk him she thought and began to follow him up the many stories. With out revealing her self she followed him to a lone door way that lead to the top of the station. Nick entered the door.

In a few moments Vixie did the same. They were on the roof top and Nick was sitting on the edge looking out into the horizon watching the sun rise. She walked up to him and sat down.

"Hi there." Vixie said with a smoothing tone.

Nick didn't respond, he just looked.

"Hey, I am sorry about yesterday. I don't what I was thinking jumping on you like that. I was just, well, you're really cute. And I didn't have any intentions on ruining you're relationship."

Nick ran his fingers through his hair, "Vixie, it's not you're fault at all. I was the one who cheated not you. I messed up."

She sighed. "No, it's still partially my fault. I knew shouldn't have done that." There was pause in their conversation. "How is she?" Vixie was referring to Judy.

"I don't know. She just really hates me right now. Usually we talk about anything and everything together. But she acting like work is the only thing on her mind right now." There was another pause.

Vixie checked her watch. "We should be getting ready we have to leave soon." Nick nodded and they both left to their duties.

After departure Judy and Nick went on patrol, little conversation was held. They went through out the day mainly issuing traffic tickets, nothing seemed to stand out in this area as far drug dealing went. Which was odd considering the case they working on.

On the other hand Vixie and Beltran arrested the museum owner of Zootopia Natural Museum. Boone was his name. This was a huge find because after researching and recorded phone calls Boone actually work for the Blackhawks and was responsible for the shooting on the bridge. He told the Blackhawks about the officers discovery of the Blackhawks location and the soldiers were suppose to kill all the officers or capture them.

Finding Boone was extremely important and it gave the ZPD a reason to believe that this actually was the true location of the Blackhawks. And was all thanks to a very resourceful Beltran and Vixie.

Nick and Judy found out about this information at the end of the day. And it frankly gave Nick the chills. The first time he was shot it was a mistake, but at the bridge that was real. Other animals were really trying to kill him, Coronado, the other officers and above all Judy. Which was the reason why Nick was so disturbed by the gun fight. They trying to kill Judy.

Judy seemed unaffected by the information and she was to believe that she had to focus on the goal at hand. And that goal was now taking down the Blackhawks in Zootopia for good. To her, this was an extreme honor.

When the time came Judy went back to apartment without telling Nick. As she walked Nick notice she was gone asked other officers on her whereabouts. And someone told him she already left.

Nick had already talked to James that day concerning the arrest of Boone. And after that Nick found that Judy had left.

After knowing that she left Nick hurried out of the station in hopes of catching up to her. By the time he got to the complex her saw he going into her room. Nick sighed this sucks.

Nick went home alone. Truly feeling alone, even more alone then he was when he was con artist. He sat around for a few hours watching television. Then he went to his room to observe pornographic websites from his phone. Which was something he had hardly ever done. He hadn't watched porn since he meant Judy. The adult entertainment ruined his ability to love, so he refrained from the activity. Unfortunately this was the feeling that Nick was trying to dull, his ability to love so he couldn't feel anything.

After his session Nick just felt worse then before. He went to his kitchen to make a small meal. Staring blankly at kitchen walls, he ate a bowl of cereal before he turned his head to see the letter he had opened the night before sitting on the shoe box. Again that bitter solution fermented at the back of his throat.

After finishing his bowl he placed it in the sink and picked up the letter. Then walked over to his desk and looked it over. With in a few moments he threw the letter in a near by trash can.

Staring out the window Nick folded his hands underneath his chin. I need to go. Luckily Nick and Judy didn't have work the next day and his weekend was free.

That next morning Nick got on the phone early and began to order a rental car. In the next hour he went to the rental place to pick up the car. It was a standard four seater reliable and efficient. Mainly blue, he plugged in his aux cord and listened to some tunes and he was finding directions for his desired location. Nick was going home, to the solution, to Foxhollow.

So obviously a filler chapter but I've like what I have do with Nick so far. The next chapter will be a meaningful one. Please let me know how I did, prioritize on characters internal feelings.
