TWO WEEKS LATER

"No, no, we're at the Willowbrook Arena, not Widowbrook. Ugh, Mom!"

A small and muscular rabbit stood outside the one of many pairs of French doors to the largest arena in Zootopia, with mammals of all shapes and sizes flooding inside by the minute. A pre-show party was being held on the upper level, and the sound of thumping bass shook the walls. The rabbit continued to argue on the phone with her mother about directions. The press was starting to show, their cameras in paw as they entered the arena like everyone else. It was a semi-formal event, so the young mammal was dressed in a halter top in sheer purple, a slightly pleated and flattering white skirt along with it. Just then a red fox popped out from behind the closest French door.

"Psst Carrots! Ten minutes 'til showtime! Get in here!" He scolded. The rabbit shook her head.

"O-….Okay Mom. See you both when you get here. Bye." Hanging up, she gave a groan before running over to him.

"Geez, your mom's not very good with anything is she?" Nick inquired. Judy grabbed his arm, causing him to stop abruptly. She reached for his green bowtie, which was tilted and slightly off-center of his pristine, pressed white dress shirt. He wore a pair of khakis as well.

"Carrot farming and breeding…..that's about it." Judy replied flatly as she patted his now straightened bowtie, although the mention of breeding brought a slight heat to the fox's cheeks. Regardless, he chuckled.

"Isn't that all that you rabbits are good for?" He joked, and Judy rolled her eyes.

"Very funny, Mr. Wilde. That was so original."

"There's more where that came from, Carrot Top." Nick answered effortlessly, giving a wink. Judy just shook her head before a particularly bubbly ocelot popped in front of them, her champagne-colored dress shimmering with every move.

"Oh hey guys! Lucy was looking for you both! C'mon!" She said, grabbing one of each of their paws and pulling them through the eons of mammals scattered across the entire upper level. Finally coming to the end where a huge set of double doors were, Olivia shoved them aside with ease and led the two ZPD officers backstage, where a lot of backup dancers were getting ready. The tigers were massive compared to the two, but the large predators didn't so much as give them a sideways glance.

With some feverish calling around and advertising on Olivia's end and some high-up connections from Judy and Nick, the musical group had landed a spot as the opening band for Gazelle, a feat that even Nick was proud of when they had relayed the confirming news to the group.

Upon reaching the actual dressing room Olivia shoved that door open as well. The duo observed Allie and Lucy doing finishing touches on one another. As they approached, Lucy glanced their way then did a double take while beaming brightly.

"Hey I was wondering when you two would show up! What do you think?" She babbled, putting a hand on her hip and swaying about. The little number she wore sparkled like silver stardust in every light that it caught, the sweetheart neckline curving in a complimentary fashion at her chest. Cascading along her torso to her hips where they draped off at various lengths, it moved in such a light and flowing manner it seemed like it was not made of fabric at all. A small rhinestone headpiece was pinned to the base of her left ear, and around her neck was a diamond necklace that was just as flashy but elegant.

"You look absolutely beautiful." Nick stated gently, sincerity dripping from his tone. Lucy smiled warmly at him, and Judy nodded.

"Definitely your style." Judy said, feeling slightly underdressed compared to the pretty vixen. Lucy giggled.

"Gazelle wanted us to look our very best, and I hope we delivered." Lucy said, a slight edge of doubt in her tone. Judy scoffed.

"Please. I'm pretty sure you even put Gazelle to shame, Lucy." She said. Lucy flicked the compliment away with her wrist, and turned to the seat in front of a very large, illuminated mirror; like the ones you see in movie star's dressing rooms. Allie had since left to go do some last-minute warmups with Olivia, and in the distance Lucy could hear the crowds chattering loudly. She inhaled deeply, closing her eyes. Releasing it slowly, she could feel Judy and Nick still standing nearby, and spoke into the air.

"I don't know if I can do this….sure, I've been practicing for this my entire life but…what if they don't like me? Or us?" Lucy stated nervously. She felt two paws on either shoulder. Slowly opening her eyes she saw Nick standing behind her with his gaze looking to her through the mirror.

"Lu, if this crowd doesn't love you by the end of the night…I will have final confirmation of Zootopia being absolutely out of their minds." He said, and Lucy giggled. Just then, Will appeared with his favorite guitar in paw and wearing a sharp pair of black dress pants, suspenders, and a silk blue bowtie. The timber wolf cleaned up very nicely.

"Hey Lucy. Five minutes." He said encouragingly, jerking his head in the direction of the stage door. Lucy gave one last anxious glance to the female rabbit and her twin brother, giving his paw a light squeeze before getting up to follow Will. She looked back again, giving a small thumbs up. Nick and Judy returned it, and once the two mammals disappeared behind the stage doors, the partners proceeded to their seats.

Gazelle not only had been generous enough to give Lucy and her band a shot at being the opening group, but had given them, their direct family, and the entire ZPD (who could come) floor seating in the front three rows. The popstar had reassured them that it was one final thank you for the Night Howler fiasco, and for uniting Zootopia once more at the time.

Upon reaching their seats they spotted Clawhauser, Chief Bogo, and Judy's parents already seated, and the rather robust cheetah looked their way.

"Hey, we thought you weren't going to show!" He shouted with cupped paws over his mouth, gesturing to the seats beside him. Judy giggled while Nick shook his head, scooting along the row of chairs before finally reaching their reserved seats.

"For a night like this? It's like you don't even know us, Clawhauser." Judy replied before waving at her parents who were on the other side of Bogo.

"Glad you found it!" Judy called to them, and her father nodded furiously while her mother laughed.

Up on stage, a couple of workers scurried feverishly around in final preparations for the performance, but none of the mammals were in sight. They finished up quickly, disappearing behind the black velvet curtains.

Emerging first was Allie, who quickly scampered across the immense stage to take her seat at the enormous piano. She looked around, then waved to Judy and Nick, who answered it. Next was Will, along with a couple of Gazelle's backup guitarists. He was leaning in and giving them last minute reminders on cues. A small group of choir members stood on risers next to them, standing perfectly still with books in hands. Last to emerge was Olivia and Lucy, with Lucy splitting off into the direction of the drum set next to the piano. Nick and Judy frowned, thinking that they'd be able to see her sing right off the bat. The vixen took a seat behind the massive drums, giving the rest of the group a thumbs up.

As 7:30 rolled, the choir began to sing, in a melody that indefinitely sounded exactly like Bohemian Rhapsody. The crowd's chatter died down almost immediately to hear their harmonious melody.

Is this the real life?

Is this just fantasy?

Caught in a landslide…

No escape from reality…

Open your eyes….

Look up to the skies and seeee…

Olivia was suddenly at the microphone, and grabbing it by the stand she inhaled quickly and cut in just in time.

I'm just a poor boy

I need no sympathy

The choir rejoined her as needed.

Because I'm easy come, easy go

Little high, little low

Anyway the wind blows

Doesn't really matter to me…..

To me…..

Allie began to pound at the keys to the piano as the instruments began their slow descent into the song. Olivia glanced back, flashing the young otter a smile as she started to sing again in almost perfect falsetto.

As the song played onward, Will and Lucy cut in where they were needed, belting out perfect guitar riffs and drum sequences. The entire crowd remained somewhat silent the entire time, not having ever seen so many predators playing up on stage, some questioning what Gazelle had been thinking.

The song slowed to its end, and Allie accompanied Olivia into the closing lyrics.

Nothing really matters…

Anyone can see…

Nothing really matters….

Nothing really matters..

To meeee…..

All sound faded to a stop, and there was a moment of absolute silence. Then came the applause and whistles. Some even stood, clapping their hooves and paws together rapidly. Nick looked to Judy and Clawhauser leaned in to speak to them.

"Nice choice for an opening song. Are they a cover band?" He asked.

"Cover and original music." Nick said flawlessly. Lucy had taken it upon herself to teach her brother the music world's lingo.

There was a shift of movement from both behind and in front of them, and they realized that the stage hands were opening up the floor seats so that a wooden dancefloor was exposed. A tradition at Willowbrook Arena and Gazelle concerts, the first song was always played seated and then everything else was seating optional. Nick and Judy stood up, respectfully allowing them to move their seats to the wayside as options. Judy's parents walked over to them, beaming brightly at the two.

"Well, I didn't realize that Lucy's group could play so well!" She said, slightly stunned. Just then, the second song began to play, and they all turned their attention back to the stage.

The group played everything from classic rock to pop to R&B in a total of five songs. The four members had moved to any and every position to accommodate each one. All of them were fluent in so many instruments and styles in such a way that it pleased the crowd. When their final song rolled, to Nick and Judy's excitement, they saw Lucy shift up to the microphone. The vixen rarely sang, being self-conscious and claiming she was better behind a guitar, sax, or drum.

"For our closing number tonight we bring you a song for all of you lovers out there." Lucy said into the mic, and Judy ear's perked at the sound of that. Lucy looked down for a split second to meet her gaze, and the rabbit could have sworn she saw her wink before the melody began to play. Lucy leaned against the mic, humming her first notes. The song sounded like Heartbeat.

I love it when we're at a party

In a downtown crowd, oh-oh-oh-oh

But I can hear you call me baby

With the music up loud

Lucy's slight twang to each word and her vocals made everyone reel in surprise, not expecting such a beautiful sound to be produced by a red fox. Usually it was prey mammals who had more alluring voice to them but the vixen was changing everyone's opinion with every note and word she sang.

Red wine, good times,

No I don't mind bein' with everyone else

And then there's nights like tonight that I

I want you to myse-e-e-elf

Judy felt a paw slip around hers, and before she could object Nick had her swinging about with him, an arm firmly supporting the small of her back as he led her around the dancefloor along with the other couples who had emerged. Her violet eyes widened in surprise.

"Nick I didn't know you could dance! And your arm….." She exclaimed, mentioning the wound in Nick's arm that was still wrapped underneath the white dress shirt. Nick smirked.

"You'll find that we Wildes are full of surprises." He replied without even acknowledging the comment about his wound, giving her a twirl. It was healing over nicely and it rarely gave him any sort of pain anymore.

And tonight I wanna drive so far

We'll only find static on the radio, oh-oh-oh-oh

And we can't see those city lights

And I love the way you look in a firefly glow

Lucy belted it out with no error at all, giving a glance to her group members every now and again, every one of them flashing a big smile at her. Will in particular gave her a bright grin. She began to close her eyes as she came to latter part of the chorus.

Sayin' everything without makin' a sound

A cricket choir in the background

Underneath the harvest moon

Standin' on your shoes in my bare feet

Dancin' to the rhythm of your heartbeat….

As that last lyric of the chorus rang out, Judy realized she was indeed leaning against Nick's chest, the thump of his heart against the left side of her face and in her ear. Her eyes widened, and she looked up to Nick, whose face was frozen in an absolutely smitten trance as he gazed down at her. She gulped.

"What's wrong, Nick?" She mumbled. The male fox shook his head gently.

"Nothing." He replied softly. Judy glanced at the ground again, but lifted her eyes back up to him before too long. He was still gazing at her in an astounded stupor, and she was beginning to wonder if everyone else was seeing the way he looked at her. Arching a brow, she spoke again.

"So...are you just going to stare at me all night?" She asked.

"Thinking about it." Nick answered again in a dreamy tone, making a small heat rise to Judy's cheeks. When she did not reply, Nick smiled gently as he turned his rabbit partner about a few more times.

"Y'know Carrots, there was a very simple reason I didn't snog you in ZH." He said. Judy's ears pinned back in bashfulness, and she chuckled nervously.

"Heh…why's that?" She felt her back dip out, and she gave a small yelp before Nick hooked his good arm underneath the small of her back again, leaning over so his eyes were looking straight into hers. Emerald danced with amethyst as the two mammals stared at one another.

"Because I didn't want our first kiss to be in that dank hospital." He replied effortlessly, and her breath hitched. Pulling her back upright, Nick locked eyes one last time before cupping a paw to her cheek. Judy leaned in, and before she knew it their lips were pressed together in amazing form. Nick inhaled deeply in the kiss, pulling her in close with his other paw while one of hers rested on his chest.

Underneath the harvest moon

Standing on your shoes in my bare feet

And we're dancin' to the rhythm of your heartbeat….

Lucy looked down to the dancing couples as the song ended. When she spotted Nick and Judy in a passionate kiss her heart soared. Her work was done. She watched the couple pull away from each other, not giving a care in the world to anyone else around them but each other, their eyes locked on one another.

"I love you, Nick Wilde." Judy whispered loud enough for the fox to hear. He smiled, rubbing her back and pulling her close again.

"I love you too, Judy Hopps." He replied indefinitely. Back on stage Lucy smiled, taking the microphone in hand.

"Thank you so much, Zootopia! We are the band Cadence, and without further ado, we bring you Gazelle!" Lucy said, gesturing to the door. The crowd roared in excitement, for both their finishing number and for the oncoming pop star. Sure enough the slender prey walked onstage in a strut, and the band quickly made moves to get out of the crowd's eye, scurrying backstage.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

"Oh. My. GOSH. We killed it!" Olivia squealed excitedly backstage as the four mammals reveled in the moment of having just performed in front of over 10,000 mammals. (And that was not including all the lemmings in the box seats).

"I haven't felt this great in months!" Allie conferred. Olivia giggled, covering her muzzle with her paws to stifle another squeal. Will smiled feverishly.

"We definitely made an awesome comeback." He agreed. Lucy shrugged.

"I suppose we did alright." She mumbled with a small smile on her face, earning scoffs and a playful shove from Olivia.

"Well there is just no pleasing you is there, Lucy Wilde?" She retorted. Lucy just shook her head with a smirk still spread across her face, and behind the doorway appeared Nick and Judy along with Judy's parents.

"Hey! You guys did great!" Judy gushed, throwing her arms around the first mammal to come to her, which had been Allie. Nick hugged Olivia while Bonnie and Stu shaking paws with Will. Lucy watched all of this in a dazed joy until every mammal had turned to her. Lucy blinked rapidly, looking between everyone.

"What?" She asked. Judy stepped forward, her paws clasped in front of her for the moment.

"Especially you, Lucy. You just made a whole new name for red foxes." She said warmly. Lucy scoffed.

"Oh come on, that's taking it a bit too far."

"No it's true. On the way over here, I heard various mammals talking about how beautiful you sounded….how they never expected a red fox to sound like that…..that maybe there was more to them than anyone thought…." Nick defended Judy's statement, and Lucy's ears pinned back in a bashful stupor with her emerald eyes widened. She was decent, but she had never thought for a second it would have such an impact.

Before she could pass it off again Nick enveloped her in another embrace, which she gladly accepted.

"Yup. She sure has ways of breaking any and every barrier." Will conferred as if he was forcefully admitting it. Lucy glanced at him, seeing his face and shoulders slack. She wanted to ask what was wrong, but before she could Bonnie and Stu had walked over to shake her paws.

"Definitely worth coming all the way out from Bunnyburrow to see you. You rocked it." Stu said, and Lucy respectfully nodded and smiled to the rabbit couple. After that they said they said their goodbyes to everyone and left.

"You guys are missing out on Gazelle!" Allie exclaimed, gesturing back to the stage where they saw the revered prey dancing along to her third hit on the charts, her masculine tigers circled about her like they always were.

"Trust me. This won't be the last time we get to see her." Judy said. Lucy looked to the fox and rabbit, a sly smirk spreading across her muzzle.

"It seems that red fox stereotypes were not the only barriers we were breaking through tonight." She said. Judy's face flushed, and Nick chuckled nervously as he scratched the back of his neck.

"You saw that, huh?" He remarked.

"I saw it and I was on the drumset in the back!" Olivia cut in excitedly.

"Well, let's just hope Chief Bogo didn't catch eyes for it…that's the last thing we need at the ZPD floating around on the gossip table." Judy stated. Lucy shook her head.

"I wouldn't worry about that. If that calloused buffalo has a shred of heart to him, he'll see you guys just as we see you. A loving couple. And that goes for the rest of Zootopia and beyond for that matter." Lucy said matter-of-factly. At the mention of the word couple, Judy and Nick both blushed again, not realizing that this was going to turn into a conversation about their love lives. Olivia and Allie both nodded in agreement.

"You guys are really cute together." Allie stated with a small smile. Judy smiled back while feeling a paw slip onto the small of her back again. She shivered slightly at Nick's touch, but wasted no time in welcoming it fondly by leaning her head against his chest. After a few moments, Nick gasped.

"Wow, I do believe that is the first time I've heard someone call you cute and you didn't jump down their throat about it!" Nick exclaimed in mock surprise, and Judy punched him square in the side, making him give a small groan. Lucy giggled as she turned about to notice that Will was nowhere in sight.

"Where's Will?" She asked.

"I think he was walking over to the dressing rooms. He looked like he wanted to take a breather." Olivia replied. Lucy looked back in the direction of the dressing rooms before locking gazes with everyone again.

"Should we talk to him? He seems kind of down." She stated. Olivia smiled deviously, giving a look towards Allie. Judy giggled.

"I think that that 'we' should become an 'I'." She said, gently grabbing the vixen's shoulders and turning her about. Lucy could feel a blush threatening to attack her face.

"I-..Liv, I think I'm the last one he wants to talk to alone." She argued.

"Quite the contrary, my dearest fox." Olivia replied flawlessly before giving her a nudge. "Hop to it."

Lucy looked back to her two female friends, who just shooed her along. Nick gave her a wink.

"Good luck, Foxy. Don't play too rough." He remarked. Lucy growled playfully at her brother, but didn't have a chance to retaliate as the newfound couple quickly followed Olivia and Allie in the opposite direction. Lucy just shook her head before turning her gaze back towards the dressing rooms.

Slowly and cautiously moving back, she approached the last doorway on the left. The sign, a chalkboard bolted to the oak door, had Will Dawson, Guitarist etched in sloppily, which was obviously of the male timber wolf's doing. Lucy gently knocked, and when no answer was given she cautiously turned the doorknob. To her surprise it was unlocked.

The hinges creaking ever so slightly as she wedged it open to step inside, she peeked her head in.

"Will?" She said softly, looking about the neat and orderly room. There was no sign of the young timber wolf, and she spotted movement to the right. Looking to it she realized that the French doors leading out to the balcony were wide open, the thin white curtains softly flapping in the wind. Taking each step gingerly Lucy walked over, watching as Will slowly came into view, starting with the tip of his tail and melding into a form until she was looking at him full-on from behind. He was staring intently into the outside world with his ears perked straight forward, leaning his elbows against the railing. Lucy looked to the floor bashfully, starting to feel stupid for coming in.

"I thought you were leaving with everyone else."

Lucy eyes immediately lifted back up, staring at the back of Will's head as his voice made her heart skip a beat. She glanced at the ground again before advancing forward slowly. As she approached the railing and rested her paws on the cool twisted metal, the wolf turned to look down at her, his face solemn and thoughtful. Lucy ears drooped slightly at how intense his gaze was.

"I wasn't about to leave without you. You should be celebrating with us." She replied, and the male wolf scoffed.

"Wouldn't be the first time I was left behind." He remarked bitterly. Lucy furrowed her brows in confusion.

"Why are you acting like this?" She inquired, deeply concerned. Will never acted angry, so when he did something significant was going on. He threw his paws up.

"Because Lucy….it's nights like these that remind me why I joined this group…..and decided to stay." He said, adding on the last part in a much softer tone. Lucy still wasn't catching on.

"It was a good performance, I'll give you that. But you thought about leaving at one point?" She asked, surprised at this discovery. Will sighed.

"For a little while, yes." He answered. Lucy gently shook her head.

"Why? I-I mean I know we're a little rusty on some riffs and Allie seriously needs to tune the bass drum again-" She was cut off.

"It was never about the music, Lu. It was never about the sound, we always have had that down pat." Will snapped. "It was never about anything of that nature…..at least for a few years now it hasn't…."

Lucy stared at the young wolf in confusion, not knowing what to say at this point. However, after several moments, her mouth must have known because before she could stop them they tumbled out.

"I'm sorry, okay?" She said abruptly. This made the timber wolf jump slightly, his ears completely perked at this point in her direction.

"For what?" He asked.

"For what I said…..two months ago…." Lucy said, her voice shaky and weak. It sounded like she was on the verge of tears, but none looked like it was forming. To her horror the timber wolf's face twisted into one of absolute confusion and amazement.

"You're still on that?" He remarked. Lucy's heart sank. "I haven't thought about that since two nights after it happened. My mind's been on…..other things." He said, his gaze looking down to the street below. Lucy frowned.

"Yeah, I bet you have been." She replied. After a few long moments, she spoke again. "How's Auna?"

This made Will look at her in baffled amazement again, his eyebrows furrowed.

"Um…good? Going on her second year with her boyfriend. Started tech school this fall too." He stated. Lucy froze.

"Boyfriend?" She repeated. Will laughed flatly.

"Uh yeah! What'd you think that I was seeing her?" He replied, placing a paw to his chest accusingly.

"Well….yeah….that's why we fought that night…" Lucy mumbled, feeling smaller right now than she had ever been standing next to the timber wolf. At this Will laughed again, this time with a little more emotion behind it.

"I tell you what Lucy, there's a lot of things you excel at, but realizing the obvious is not one of them." He said before standing up straight, moving slightly to the left to look down to the entrance of one of the many bars along Arena Avenue. It was getting late, and the amount of mammals standing outside the doors to the place was growing at a steady pace.

Lucy pondered on what he had said, and decided to take a jab at him as well.

"Well regardless. I'm sure you've had your share of flings since we've split." She remarked. This made Will turn completely around to look at her again, this time his gaze sympathetic. He shrugged, shoving his paws into the pockets of his faded jeans.

"You're right, there's been a few. Mostly just flirts with nothing better to do than gawk at guys they think will get them everything they want. Some of them seemed pretty nice though…..and definitely could have made decent companions." He replied. Lucy was surprised he was being so open. The wolf looked to the ground, sauntering over to the vixen slowly. At just a little over a foot away he stopped again, continuing to look at the ground as if in search of an impossible item.

"But all of them have this same issue, this one little thing about them that is a total deal-breaker with me." He said, putting out two fingers almost squished together to emphasize his point before tucking it back in his pocket. Lucy's ears perked.

"And what could that possibly be, Will?" She asked with a smirk, finding it hard to believe that the laid-back canis lupes would ever purposely find something wrong with someone. It just wasn't his nature. Lucy had known that from jump when she had first met him, that wonderful summer of her second year out of high school. The timber wolf's cobalt gaze locked with her emerald one, and she saw the shift in emotion behind his eyes. This one, however, made her heart start to pound.

"….They weren't you." His voice was soft, loving, and gentle. Lucy's smirk fell from her face, her ears dropping indefinitely behind her head as a wave of heat rushed to her neck and cheeks. She gazed at Will in a stupor, playing those words over and over in her head as she realized what they meant.

"M-Me?" She finally stuttered. Will stepped even closer to her, and she felt his huge paw cup around the entire left side of her face.

"Yes you, Lucy Wilde." He repeated. Lucy was at a loss for words.

"I thought….after the way I acted…you'd want nothing to do with me…" She explained, her gaze looking to the ground again. She saw out of her peripheral vision Will start to kneel on the ground to get more on the vixen's level, since there was just over two feet of space between his head and hers. Still cupping her face, Will chuckled softly as they locked eyes again.

"Well, I'm afraid that's where you are wrong, Miss Wilde." He replied. Lucy's heart soared like an eagle in her chest at the fateful words that he had spoken that day he had followed her in the snow, the words that had led her to undeniable truth of how she felt about Will Dawson.

She didn't say another word as Will leaned down, his muzzle finally coming in contact with hers in the most tender kiss. She practically melted into him, kissing back lovingly. The two held like that for a long moment before finally breaking apart for air. Lucy rested her paws on Will's chest, absolutely smitten all over again with the handsome grey wolf.

"That was well worth the wait." Lucy declared. Will chuckled, stroking her cheek lightly with his thumb.

"Yes it was." He said. Lucy brought one of her paws to his, now gazing at him in feverish determination to say what she had meant to say all those weeks ago.

"I love you." The words were firm but certain, with a hint of adoration buried inside. Will smiled.

"I love you too." He replied before pulling her into a tight hug. The two predators embraced lovingly until they heard a voice from below.

"It's about FREAKING time, you two!" Olivia yelled with her paws cupped around her muzzle. The two looked to see the ocelot standing below along with Allie, Nick, and Judy, who all smiled up at them. Lucy shook her head while Will chuckled.

"Friends. What can you do with them?" Will said while giving a shrug. Lucy smiled. Will stood up, extending a paw.

"Shall we join them?" He asked. Lucy beamed again.

"We shall."

Hooking her paw into the crook of his arm, the two exited the dressing room to reunite with the lot of them downstairs on the street. All the while the two predators and the predator and prey indefinitely were starting a new chapter of their lives. Not as just friends anymore, but lovers. Ready to take on anything the shining city and its mammals had to throw at them.
