Hello my lovely readers.
Sorry for how late this chapter is, I have been dealing with a little writers block.
I don't own anything. But maybe a little bit of a dirty mind. Haha
"No way." I stuttered awkwardly as we talked on my bed. "There is no way that he is a killer."
Nick looked slightly unnerved.
"Why because he is a bunny?"
He pulled open the collar of his police uniform. His hand had slowly ran around the back of his neck.
"No, because I talked to him and he didn't give off that vibe. He just seemed a bit strange."
Nick stood up. He paced over to the door.
"Well he is the only lead we have, so whether your coming or not I have a suspect to interrogate." Nick started to leave.
"okay, I will meet you at the car."
As I was locking the door to my apartment I heard a voice call out.
"I am amazed at your relationship with him." Pronk my next door neighbor said.
"And why do you say that?" I asked confusedly.
He waved a hoof toward the stairs. "You guys have busted through our society. Me and Bucky weren't the first male couple, but you. You guys are the first interspecies couple I have ever seen. And to top it off it is a predator and prey." He smiled. "I admire those who don't care, and just to choice who they love." He turned to go back into his apartment.
I panicked. "Wait, its not what you think?"
He laughed. "Thin walls sweetheart. I don't judge you."
He closed the door behind him. Leaving me in the hallway with my thoughts. When I got to the car, my mind was whirling as fast as a jack rabbit.
"Carrots, are you okay?" I nodded.
"Do you wish I were a fox?" my voice sounded weak.
He whipped his head my direction. "What makes you think that?"
I shrugged my shoulders.
He sighed. "No."
"Are you sure? because I saw the way you looked at the casino with that other fox-"
"Judith," my ears twitched since that was the first time I had heard him use my name. "I love you, I love your cute little fuzzy tail, I love your soft fur, I love the color of your eyes, and I am more attracted to you than any fox in the world. So stop worrying okay?"
I could feel my skin warming from his words.
"Okay."
It didn't take long for us to arrive at the library. The parking lot was pretty much empty when we got there. Nick and I strolled up to the main desk.
"Hey, History girl. What canI do for you?" he said as he came around the counter to shake my hand. The moment our hands touched a now growl sounded from Nick. The bunny looked sideways at him.
"So we just have a few questions for you." He smirked at me. "Am I in trouble? You know I might just say I did it to get you put those hand cuffs on me." I smiled, stifling a laugh. A even angrier growl sounded. "Oh I never got your name by the way."
He put his hand out to shake mine. "I am so sorry. Jack Humper." I couldn't help but laugh when he said that. "I know, my parents weren't kind."
"I am sorry I shouldn't have laughed." I took his hand. He turned mine and laid a kiss on my knuckles. Before I could even think, Nick was between us.
"Where were you the night before last?" His voice was sharp.
"I visited a casino down in the savanna. Why?"
My eyes grew wide.
"Did you and I talk?" I blurted out.
He smiled. "For a few moments."
Nick had him pressed to the counter within a few seconds. "What am I being arrested for?" His voice sounded cool and composed.
"Drugging an officer." Nick roughly piled him into the back seat of the car.
"What evidence do you have on me?"
Nick's face was angry. I laid a hand on his arm. "Nick-"
"Not right now Hops, I need a moment." He started up the car.
"Your heart rate is spiking. Why are you so... Is he your mate?!"
Jack's voice went shrill, his face contorting in disgust.
"That is none of your business. Shut your mouth." Nick spat the words out into the back seat.
"Judith, I thought you were smart, I guess not."
What in the world? Who does he think he is? I feel myself getting upset. Nick, is the most amazing... Wait, how did he know my name?
