Chapter 20
Day Three
7pm
ZPD First Precinct "First Prinky"
Downtown Zootopia
Chief Bogo was always busy...and always grouchy, certainly more busy and more grouchy now since this "menace" started his or her killing rampage through Zootopia. So far every effort expended resulted in a dead end or a twist that threw Bogo's officers off their game and into reset mode. He was already dealing with a "ton of dung" as if one more thing wouldn't really set fire to his rump than the desk buzzer...
"What now!" Bogo bellowed into the speaker. "I thought I told everyone to come see me in furson and dispense with the calling?!"
"Well you certainly did not relay that message to me." Nick's voice sounded on the other end and the fox didn't sound pleased.
"Yes Wilde, what is it? What did I do to twerk your pretty tail now?" Bogo asked as he slumped in his chair.
"I was going to blow up and call you every name in the book Chief? But...my wife would probably have enough strength left to kick my butt through a window so...sigh...anyway? She's sick and she's out of it and I'm still very upset." Nick said.
"As if I could order her to go home?" Bogo replied. "We're both in the same boat Wilde...you're wife is a stubborn, determined, very focused and very hard to reason with rabbit."
"But still?" Nick replied. "As our Chief, you have to try and stop her from pushing herself! Hell...if you have to toss her in a cell and lock her up to make her sleep then by all means...no wait...she'd figure out how to pick the locks, I know she keeps a pick set on her some place, not...not gonna go there."
Bogo sounded tired..."Ugh...how is she now?"
"Sleeping like a rock with our son making sure she says put. How are you doing Chief? You sound like a Cape Buffalo without a water hole." Nick asked.
"More like a maul'd Cape Buffalo without a water hole, Wilde. This...this "individual" is taxing our nerves." Chief Bogo said.
"Well?" Nick replied. "Sounds to me like we need a little "radicalization" of our tactics...that is if you'll permit me to do some "twerking" in quotes with some of my old street runners? Fair warning... some of what I'm thinking about will boarder on the shade of illegality but it could nail this creep if you put things in my capable foxy paws?"
Bogo shook his head. "I'm shuddering to think of the damage that comes with your..."usual flair" Wilde but given the situation? It seems we have run out of other methods and devices. Please "try" to spare some of the city will you?"
"I will assure you of a reasonably intact ten percent and that's my best offer." Nick said with a raised paw finger. "Don't worry Chief, we'll nail this bastard...or we could push the big red button and go "pred nuclear" and I don't think we want that option do we? "Kiss" love you big furry Buffalo Butt." Nick hung up the phone and walked into his bedroom to find his little son still sitting like a statue over his sleeping mother.
"She hasn't moved?" Nick asked as he reached for Jackson.
"Nah Daddy." Jackson replied as he raised his arms to get scooped up.
"Well? Time for you to move to your own bed." Nick said as he carried Jackson to his room and dressed him in his PJ's. "You did a good job Jackson." Nick said as he rubbed his nose in Jackson's chest. "Who's Mommy's tough little kitten?"
"Mommy and Daddy's tough little kitten." Jackson said with a raised paw finger.
"I stand corrected." Nick said smiling. "Sleep tight Jackson."
Nick closed the bed room door and pulled his cell phone from his pocket.
7:20pm
The Starlight Casino and nightclub
Sahara Square
Benny Ball was making the usual host rounds of the machines and the tables to smooze with the customers and keep the good cheers running about being it fill empty glasses or direct one of a number of "hostesses and hosts" to smooze the usual "extra grease" from full pockets. The stubby sized blue tabby cat stopped to pull his chime'ing smart phone from his white jacket pocket...
"Benjamin Ball...who do I have the pleasure of addressing?" Benny asked.
"Hello you delightful little porky cat you." Nick replied.
"Nick!" Benny yelped. " It's "Spin" ages!...why don't you call more often?! Then again why are you calling since you're a cop?"
"Forget the "five and change" Benji." Nick replied. "Is "TC" about?"
"Oh sure!" Benny replied as he walked towards the office where "TC" was working. "You're not recording this "convo" are you? We're not in any trouble are we?"
"No...not at all...unless that's what you all want?" Nick replied. "I need some street help with this current problem we have with this serial killer. I'm thinking of breaking some eggs and skirting the glass of justice and law..."
Benny Ball poked his head into "TC's" office and held out the smart phone. "Hey "TC"? It's Nick and he needs a favor."
The yellow tabby smirked as he took the phone..."Hello you old wise tail. You know you still owe me a hundred zoo bucks Nick? So why should I lift a claw for you?"
"Because if the Mayor is forced to go full lock down on this serial bastard? You will be out several days of returns. I know you "TC", you love your returns like you love your screaming females in heat." Nick snickered.
Top Cat snapped his fingers at Benny. "Get Fancy, Brain and Chooch..." He told Bennie. "Like always Nick? You find a way to vice grip my sack. My question is? What do you want from me and my crew?"
"Unrestricted warfare. Your usual motis operandi to hunt this bastard down." Nick said with a snarl. "I can not think they're alone in this, no matter what all the psycho drillers at the mental hospital say in their profiles. I'm willing to make a bet there's a larger interest layered under this guy and that's what I hope your crew will find out. It's also become a personal matter "TC" Nick growled..."My wife has run herself into the ground because of this dick. He's touched my family and that's enough to rub my tail raw."
Top Cat motioned Brain, Fancy and Chooch to wait at the office doorway..."Well if it's hit Judy then it's personal for me too. I owe her a pay back for kindness sake. We're allowed to go full speed right?"
Nick replied. "Just don't torture and don't kill. And it must be under the table...quiet and silent. And don't blow up half the city."
"Fine." Top Cat replied. "We'll get to work right away. Of course? You'll owe me my hundred zoo bucks on top of what I send you for expenses and fees...hookers included."
"Gawdess Vulpix you're a little prick." Nick snarled.
"It's a living. Sleep well tonight Nick." Top Cat said as he handed the phone back to Benny Ball. "Alright boys, come on in, we got a piece of work."
Choo Choo M'gurn, Fancy Fance and Brain Steeple grabbed chairs. "What's shaking "TC"?" Choo Choo the tall light brown Siamese asked.
"A contract from Officer Nick Wilde. We're being unleashed against this dirt bag serial killer. Nick wants us to shake the city and see if this dust mite is working on his own or if he has "confetti"."
Fancy raised a paw. "That's uh? Like Confederates there "TC"."
"And you're a freeking school teacher you? Cut it with the Gabbosh!" "TC" replied. "We can do anything we want boys...so long as we don't bust too many laws or reduce Zootopia to a smoldering ruin. Go back to your own crews and tell them to get their legs and tails in gear, everything you find out comes back to me...got it?"
"Ab-so-floggin-loot-lee"...Choo Choo replied. "Let's go boys."
Day Three
7:50pm
The Grassfed Grill
Downtown Zootopia
Alex rubbed his tummy after finishing his pie..."Mmmmm! I love that Rappleberry! Ask my mom? I can rip apart a whole Rappleberry pie in like seconds and leave the silver pan spinning in mid air." Alex pulled out his smart phone. "Guess I'll call my Mom for a pick up."
Morgan reached out and put her paw on the phone. "How about you hang up and come home with me?"
Alex tilted his head. "Because my Mom won't allow it. One thing for your school buds to ask for a sleep over but a female? Sheesh...my Mom will throw a fit. Guess she thinks all female dogs walk around in constant heat or something."
Morgan snorted..."Well that's silly? I'm not in heat...hold on?" Morgan pulled out her smart phone..."Hi Mom! We're having a great time! Alex gave me a baseball jacket! Wait till you see it Mom, it is like so rad! Mom? I want Alex to sleep over with us but he's worried his Mom's going to say no. Can you smooth her over? Thanks Mom. I'll call you when we're ready ok?"
"Beep"
"There!" Morgan said with a giggle. "Done and done, no excuses."
"Well?" Alex replied. "I have one excuse? See I have a friend at Lion's Gate beach I have to see in the morning and..."
"That's in the morning silly." Morgan growled. "You going to go and camp all night on the beach?"
"Well since you're so forceful about it? I'll make an exception. If? If your Mom can convince mine?" Alex said with a shrug. "I'm telling you Morgan? She's a hard nut..."
Alex's phone beeped..."Hmmm? Mom." Alex said as he pointed to his phone. "Hello? You've reached the offices of Alex and Alex law and disorder tax evasion services..."
Valerie replied. "If Morgan's asked you to stay over night, I have no problem but? You behave yourself young wolf."
"Mom?!" Alex yipped. "What do you think I am? 16?"
"Mind your behavior Alex." Valerie warned before she clicked off.
Alex huffed..."Mind my behavior, Morgan? You better lock your bedroom door? I might turn into a sex crazed werewolf."
"Difficult since you'll sleep in my room." Morgan replied smiling.
"Um? Morgan? That's kinda weird? Might kinda produce some bad thoughts in others?" Alex flustered as Morgan leaned her snoot close...
"As me if I care?" Morgan said as she gave Alex a lick kiss. "I trust you."
Alex smirked back. "Can I trust you? I'm gonna be looking for ropes, zip ties, hand cuffs and yard chains."
Morgan rubbed Alex's head tuft! "Oh my Gawd! You are so adorable!"
"And...so goes my moral downfall." Alex replied with a sigh.
Day Three
8:20pm
Juno's home
Downtown Zootopia West End.
Haru sat quietly on the fold out couch bed gently rubbing Legoshi's temples with her soft paws as Juno came walking into her living room with a serving tray of snacks and drinks. She had changed out of her street clothes for a pair of silky white pajamas and soft slippers...
"I'm washing your clothes Legoshi. Do you feel better now?" Juno asked as she sat by the fold-out bed and watched Haru do her thing.
Legoshi pointed to the small white rabbit and smiled contently. "Of course I feel much better. You should allow Haru-chan to give you a full body...mmmmmmm...such a delight after a lousy day."
"I would like to show you my tallents." Haru said to Juno. "I can be just as sensual on a female wolf as a male, after all...true socialators are those who can satisfy both genders with equal delights."
Juno rubbed her muzzle..."Ummm...perhaps later. There's still this very unpleasant current situation which has placed our joint mammal of interest in his dire setting..."
Legoshi smiled back. "You make it sound as if I'm dying...yet I am very much...pissed off...at being "blown out" by this animal. I so want to be the mammal that takes him down and beats the ever loving snot out of his skull."
"Oooooo..." Haru sounded. "Violence from our Legoshi? This is a serious situation that requires all my talents."
Juno growled as Haru reached for her top..."You will NOT get naked in my house."
"Wearing just panties is not nakedness." Haru snapped back.
"No lewdness neither." Juno warned. "I will not have porn and filth in my home even for a good cause."
Haru snorted..."Sheesh! You really need tension release." The white female rabbit said as she focused her attention on the nape of Legoshi's neck..."By the way Juno? I found your last movie very interesting." Haru said. "Not your usual work...comedy...but you performed the routine with Robin Faux as if you needed no effort at all."
Juno chuckled..."Haru-chan? You always have an interesting way with words...I appreciate the critique and you're right...I never took up comedic acting in the academy. Robin gave me "on the fly" lessons throughout filming. I want to do another comedy though to increase my appeal range."
Juno didn't notice Legoshi playing with the tip of her tail until she turned to see his smiling face looking back at her as he tail dangled in his finger tips...
"Slap!" "Just because you're a little hobbled, doesn't mean you can take your liberties with me Legoshi!"
The big male wolf just threw his paws out and snatched Juno by her arms! "Legoshi! Let go!"
"Oh...stop pretending Juno!" Legoshi yelped as he pulled Juno onto the bed! He then reached for Haru and threw her next to him...
"Now let's all figure out what to do with all this spare time shall we?" Legoshi asked. "Perhaps the two of you combined can speed the process of my recovery?!"
"Gee Juno?" Haru said huffing. "Now he shows an interest in you?"
"There's hope yet for me my dear Haru-chan." Juno replied as she patted Legoshi's chest. "Though sad to say Legoshi? I don't think between myself and Haru, we could do you much of any good."
Day Three
8:20pm
The Grey family home
Rain Forest district
Harold Grey was what you'd aptly call "A king wolf" that his...he was huge, imposing, intimidating. If he were in feral form and you were perhaps five feet six inches tall...you would be looking at the wolf's navel while his big front paws would be using you as a foot stool. He could fit your head...in his jaws.
And yet this intimidating former Zootopian Navy Master Dive Chief, when it came to his two cubs, was a patient and dotting father always ready to peak the interests of his children be it throwing fast balls in little league or learning how to face feed a thin rod of steel into the glowing pool of molten metal that Will was now working around a steel pipe being welded to another steel pipe...
"No Son...no...too fast...stop." Harold said as he tapped Will's shoulder and pulled up the teen cub's weld mask..."Watch me again very carefully." Harold said as he grabbed his own welder's mask and showed his son how to work the gas tungsten torch with one paw while applying the steel rod to the forming molten pool of metal with the other paw...
"One, two, dip"..."One, two, dip"..."One, two, dip...see how easy that is William?" Harold said calmly. "Form the pool...dip" "Form the pool...dip" "You'll get used to the rythem soon enough." Harold said as he stopped to sip his beer.
Will yawned as he stood pondering if he should try welding again so late and so close to bed time. "Mom let Alex sleep over Morgan Wright's house Dad, did she tell you?"
"That was a forgone conclusion." Harold said smiling.
"You like Alex sleeping with a female dog?" Will was a little surprised.
"I take it son that you think all of us adult wolves hate dogs for one reason or another. I don't hate dogs...at least not all dogs and certainly those who, like most of us wolves. don't believe we have any common relationship with each other. As for Morgan Wright and her parents? I find nothing wrong with them. In fact? I liked little Morgan the first day she pitched in pee paw league against your brother, she's been good for Alex's motivation and his out-going spirit."
Will huffed a little..."And you think I don't "out go" that much at all. I heard you and mom talking about me."
"Take it as the usual parental worries with their children." Harold said. "Your mother thinks you're a little too sheltered and stuck with academics. I for one think that though your pursuit of car repair and mechanics is a good thing? I must be honest that I always wait to see you coming into the house with a girlfriend. Heck son...I lost my virginity at thirteen..."
"To a tranny-Kangy?" Will snickered..."Gee...way to go Dad! Great example for your eldest son to follow in your paw steps."
"You want me to pound you?" Harold growled.
Will waved his paws around..."Dad? I'm not in a hurry to prove I have a set of puppy makers ok? Sheesh...when I get ready to hump? I'll give out invitations. Shouldn't doing good in school be more important to you and mom than me doing highly efficient "bed mombo" like you two? And...could you two kindly not remind me every other night? What next? Going to hook up a stereo mic over your bed?"
Harold waved a paw..."Ok, Ok...we get it...we will stop trying to suffocate you. Just...well? We only want our older cub to do well with his life."
"I bet mom pushed you into all this talk with me...didn't she?" Will asked as he got ready to try another weld.
"Do you think I'd dare say no to her?" Harold asked.
Day Three
9pm
Nick and Judy's house
Nick coo'd softly as he felt his wife suckling his neck while she snuggled and held tight to his fluffy tail..."Mmmm...Shantele...such a lovely tail you are. Oh...Oh I want to love you all night long."
"Shantele? You little slut." Nick snorted. "Cucking on me with my wife you naughty tail you."
"I'm feeling better." Judy said as she wiped herself with the soft fox tail..."She's so gorgeous...she told me all about you Nick...you don't pamper her enough...she thinks you're a bastard and she hates being attached to you."
Nick growled. "If that's what you want you dirty little slut? Where's the scissors?" Nick then grabbed Judy and pulled her onto his chest. "Ok you cheating whore of a bunny, enough of my tail, attend to me."
"Yes you filthy dusty old Hombrah." Judy snarled. "Am I your wife or this evening's hors-dover?"
Nick gave Judy a gentle kiss..."What would you desire? Want to be adventurous and "do it" around the block and see if we get picked up by the department for indecency and illegal devouring?"
Judy giggled as she played with Nick's lips..."I'll pour ketchup over my body, that will really horrify the neighbors!"
Nick felt excited..."Yeah! Yeah...I'll spray whip cream all over my mouth and act totally rabid so they call the "catch crew", I could totally go for a serious take down!"
Judy then played a finger over Nick's snoot. "Nope...sadly we promised to be the upstanding examples of goodness and obedience to the law for our son...it was such wishful thinking though."
Nick played his paws over Judy's soft breasts..."Yeah...I'm so happy you're feeling better...really Carrots...you can't save the whole world, certainly not in a single day."
"I'm going to nail that bastard Nick." Judy snarled. "Let me get back on the street and I'll chase that filthy murderer into the North Country, then I'll have free justification to load up a machine gun and turn that sick mammal into a mulch pile."
"Gee...such stress and vindictiveness Carrots. You need to be prey'd upon bad." Nick said as he opened his paws wide and popped out his claws while licking his lips and looking at Judy as if she was dinner...
"Come on Judy...plump and scrumptious...let's do it. Let's play "Predator and Prey" around the block a few times? Jackson's asleep, the night is warm and my blood is hot. What do you say to that my dear sweet Princess of Rabbits?"
Judy smirked at her husband. "If we get caught? It's "your" fault alone. Do you have a bottle of wine?"
"Did you dare think I would prepare a dinner without wine?" Nick said as he held Judy by her waist above his dripping maw. "I bought some nice red "Deshanti Blonque" on the way home. A perfect compliment to juicy delicious rabbit."
Judy reached out and scratched Nick's nose..."Let me have a nice full glass before we do anything so I can be...you know? In the "proper mood" of a terrified rabbit about to meet her horrible end."
Nick smiled softly as he turned Judy around over his head. "Let's? Let's take care of some "preliminary stimulations". You start on your end and I'll pour the wine. How fortuitous of me to have an ice bucket and two wine glasses under our bed!"
"Sneaky fox." Judy snorted.
"Horny long eared dirt scratcher." Nick snickered back.
Day Three
10pm
Morgan Wright's house
Alex followed Morgan and Ako the otter through the front door with Morgan's mother Kelly behind them...
"Alex? I want to make sure you don't mind sleeping in Morgan's room. You don't have to do anything that's not comfortable for you." Kelly said.
Alex waved a paw..."It's ok. But you should check her room for leashes, collars, handcuffs, ankle irons, ball..."
"Slap!" Morgan smacked Alex off the back of the head. "Don't tell my mother about my secret bondage room! Right Ako?"
"A closet is a poor bondage room. Damn Mrs. Wright, you're daughter's such a cheep." Ako snickered.
Morgan didn't say another word as she grabbed Alex's paw and almost dragged him into her room!
Alex looked around and pursed his lips over every detail..."I was imagining this would be like seven shades of pink everywhere with fairy horses, frilly stuff and diaries on every table and dresser. You're just as messy as I am."
"It's not a mess and if you call it all "clutter" I'll nip your nose." The female corgi said as she cleared clothes and things off her bed. "This is a carefully crafted art critique of the state of our world." Morgan said as she threw her paws around the room.
Ako smirked at Alex..."Way to go...you just unleashed the silly."
"So?" Alex asked. "Am I sleeping on the dirty clothes pile, the stuff that's in the hamper or a cat box?"
"Very funny." Morgan replied. "The bed silly."
"Your bed?" Alex asked as he pointed.
"Well?" Morgan replied. "I wasn't going to throw you on a blow up mattress or the couch. I mean...you can sleep under the covers and I'll sleep in feral at your feet."
"And? And your mom's going to be ok with it?" Alex asked as he played with his paw fingers.
"Of course! Oh my gawd Alex, you are sooooooo cute." Morgan said cheerfully. "You're just so innocently cute."
Alex scratched his head tuft..."I didn't bring anything to sleep in or a change of clothes."
Kelly suddenly came to the bedroom door. "I have you covered. There's a basket with a towel and things in it in the hall way bathroom if you want to take a bath or shower before bed."
"Thanks Mrs. Wright!" Alex replied with a smile. "Yeah...If I can take a shower? Thank you."
Morgan showed Alex where the bathroom was and stood at the door jam as he grabbed the basket and started to pull things from it...
"Morgan? If you're planning to stand there? I'll charge you money." Alex said with a snicker.
"What do you know about Jinpei?" Morgan asked. "You knew I would pick your brain?"
Alex sat on the edge of the tub and pulled his shoes off..."He's...two, then three, then one, then two." He replied.
"Huh?" Morgan asked cocking her head. "What's that?"
"His pitch order." Alex replied. "Trust me, I've gone to as many of his games as I could and he always throws "sets" like two curves, three fast balls, one slider and two pace changers. He hasn't changed from game to game, it's the same number order every time he's pitching. So if he throws say...a fast ball in the third set? Then you can expect two pace changers right after it."
Morgan sat on the floor. "And no one's figured this out?"
"At our age? Do you think any of us are really that interested? My mom's "Mrs. Science" with everything so she's the one who pushed me to "dig, dig, dig" into all the "game back story" stuff. You never saw me at any of your other games?"
"My focus is always on pitching and the plate." Morgan replied.
Alex giggled..."Explain why you some times go "pantless" in games?"
Morgan snorted back. "Get the dirt out of your brain?!"
"You're the one "showing off" on the mound!" Alex thought of what he said..."That didn't sound good."
"I do it because I can." Morgan replied. "I hate wearing baseball pants and I hate wearing a cup, especially playing in Savanna Central. You might like sweat, rashes and stinky underwear...that's certainly a "male thing"...I don't."
Morgan turned her head as if disgusted but soon smiled. "But? If it throws off the concentration of a few batters and runners? I don't mind...except when it's my own team mates. I creamed Bobby Tawilligar our second baseman because he was getting a little weird and missing hit balls."
Morgan then stood up and walked into the bathroom...
"Hey?" Alex asked. "I'm getting ready to...you know? Take a shower?"
"Just one more question?" Morgan asked. "Since you know so much about opposing pitchers? What do you know about me?"
Alex pursed his lips. "That's confidential information that if I disclosed it? I might get my snoot kicked in."
"Oh come on!" Morgan begged as she reached out and played around with Alex's Jowls. "Tell me! If I'm gonna go up against Jinpei, I need to know where I need to strengthen up?"
"Tell you everything you know so you could maybe beat me?" Alex snorted. "What's in it for me if I tell you?"
"Hmph!" Morgan huffed. "You mangy flea farm wolf."
"Well?" Alex replied. "You're dipsy doodle is as limp as a cub's noodle and your wide arc slider absolutely sucks." The wolf cub snorted. "That's how our best batters are able to nail you so many times. Like Jinpei? You have a hard wired set patten of pitches too."
Morgan frowned yet nodded. "I just had to ask for the truth."
"Ok...you asked, now? Can I take a shower so we can get to sleep? I've experienced your severe crankiness and I'm not willing for another round in the theater." Alex said as he pointed to the bathroom door.
"Ok..." Morgan replied as she backed out and closed the door. Moments later...
"Smack!" Ako landed a hard slap on Morgan's head! "Will you get away from the key hole?!"
"Ouch!" Morgan snapped! "Ako!"
"Get in your room?! You want to drive him away? Sheesh, should tell your mom, really Morgan?" Ako snorted as she pulled the female Corgi back to her bedroom.
"Don't tell me you're not curious?" Morgan asked.
"I'm an otter, not a canine." Ako yipped back. "Behave yourself?"
After a half hour...Alex knocked on the bedroom door..."Um? You two decent?"
"Come in and find out." Morgan snicker-giggled as she tussled with Ako on her bed.
Alex poked his head into the room and smirked. "Any room for me?"
Kelly yelled from the living room..."YOU PUPS GET TO BED! I DON'T WANT TO HEAR A SOUND OUT OF THAT ROOM!"
Alex quickly closed the door and jumped onto the bed, flopping onto his back between Ako and Morgan!
"Boof!"..."Have at me girls?" Alex said with a giggle.
Ako reached out and tweaked Alex's nose. "I'll leave the tough work to Morgan. Night Alex." Ako said as she slipped off the bed and set herself on a blow up mattress. "And be quiet you two? I want to get some sleep tonight?" The otter said before she dozed off, leaving Morgan to sit facing the wolf cub on the bed...
"You know?" Morgan asked. "There's really nothing wrong if you sleep under the covers and let me sleep right next to you?"
"I don't want to make your mom upset at me." Alex replied waving a paw.
"You should probably worry about me being upset if you say no." Morgan said smiling. "I won't bite or attack you Alex, honest. Besides? With this crazy serial killer running around Zootopia, shouldn't we all be close to each other?"
Alex smirked. "I bet you can come up with all kinds of crazy excuses to get a snuggle in huh?"
Morgan smiled back. "I am a little bit gifted."
With no worry...Morgan planted a light kiss on Alex's cheek. "I wish I wasn't so stupid when that jacket tore. I really was unfair to you and I am so sorry Alex."
Alex touched a paw to Morgan's lips. "Stop tearing yourself up, everything's fine between us. Don't you think we should get to sleep now?"
"Oh? Oh yeah...sorry." Morgan replied with a chuckle. "I do like to ramble too much. See you in the morning Alex."
"Sleep well Morgan." Alex replied as he laid down and quickly fell asleep."
