A month passed as Judy and Nick visited her parents. It was a tearful goodbye as Judy's younger siblings gathered around the couple asking them if they were going to return soon.

"I am sure we will return soon guys."

Nick said with a calm laugh. he changed over his short time at the Hopps farm as his fur was brighter. His eyes were brighter as they were filled with laughter as he patted one of the cubs on the head.

"Dont worry everyone we will be back soon. So behave and make sure to hold down the fort until we come back home alright."

The younger rabbits nodded their heads as Stu and Bonnie bring both Judy and Nick into a hug.

"Stay safe you two and call us every day alright."

Judy nodded as she hugged back.

"I will mom and I love you."

Nick smiled as he shook Stu's paw.

"Stay safe and we will make sure to call every day."

Stu smiled as he brought the young fox into a hug.

"We will and we will also send you some blueberries every few days."

Nick smiled at the thought of the berries of deliciousness. He was pulled out of his thoughts by Judy's cell phone ring. She pulled out her phone and brought it to her ear.

"Hello? Oh hello, sir how can I help you?Yes Nick is here can you please hang on so I may put you on speaker phone?"

She then touched her screen as a gruff voice came over the speaker.

"Hello, Mr. Wilde, hello Miss. Hoppes, I am Chief Bogo and I would like to extend my welcome to the force. You will be shadowing two of our senior officers. they will teach you the ropes as well as show you proper protocol on how to handle situations that they did not cover at the academy. I was also told by drill instructor Cora that you two are a couple."

Nick and Judy looked at each other with a hint of Nick spoke.

"That is correct sir me and Judy are in a relationship. "

There was a pause on Bogos side then he huffed.

"Alright thank you for confirming it for me. You both are unable to be partners for a month but after that, we will see. Now relationships are not uncommon on the force. I expect you to keep it work appropriate. You will be provided laptops for when you take your work home. We also will be providing our state of the art uniforms that are more durable than the dress the way, the Mayor's assistant will be setting up a press conference so please wear Formal clothing .Now be here by 7 o'clock."

Both Nick and Judy agreed before Cheif Bogo gave his goodbye.

Nick scratched the back of his head as Judy smiled her infectious smile.

"Well, he seemed nice."

Nick said as he turned to Judy. She nodded as he got into the driver's seat of his Jeep.

"We are going to do awesome things, Nick. "

Judy stated with conviction as she held her mate's paws.

Nick nodded as he started up the Jeep and drove away from the homestead.

It was mid afternoon when they saw the sign for Rusty's dinner.

"Hungry Judy?"

Nick asked with a small smile as she nodded.

"Yeah, it's time for lunch anyways I think we can stop."

Nick smiled as he pulled into the driveway of the dinner. as they pulled into a parking space a large lungfish was waddling with a newspaper under one of its arms.

"Well, that's interesting."

Nick said as he watched the amphibian enter the restaurant. Judy just nodded as she left the Jeep and followed the Lungfish inside to see Geoffrey talking to it.

"Thanks again Nick for helping out with the taxes. We really needed the help."

Geoffrey exclaimed as the Fish nodded his head with a smile.

"No worries Geoff just remember not to fall behind on them again alright."

Geoffrey nodded as he handed the fish a sandwich. The Lungfish Nick gobbled it up with gusto as he went to the aquarium tank near the front. Geoff noticed the couple and greeted them like old friends.

"Hi you two welcome back would you like a booth?"

They both smiled as they said yes and sat near the tank.

Judy smiled as she started.

"So Nick..."

Both Nicks look up to her and ask.

"Yes?"

They both looked at each other and laughed.

"You guys can call me slappy."

Slappy said as he extended his hand as Nick shook it.

"Nice to meet you, Slappy ,I,m Nick and this is my mate Judy."

Slappy waved his hand as Rusty came over with his notepad.

"Hey, you two I see you meet Slappy. so what can I get you both to drink?"

Judy ordered a green tea as Nick ordered a black coffee. As Rusty wrote down the orders.

"So where's Geoffrey?"

Nick asked as he pulled out his phone to do something on his social media. Judy sighed as Rusty grinned.

"Oh, he is hanging out with his friend Pete an albino Fox who is one of our best cooks."

Rusty exclaimed as he left to go get the drinks. Nick perked up when Rusty said, Fox.

"Do you mind if we meet him?"

Rusty nodded as he brought the drinks.

"Sure give me a sec to get them."

Rusty rushed to the back of the dinner. Nick took a sip of his coffee with a smile as Judy put some sugar in her tea. She was wearing a loss button up with khaki pants.

Nick put his paw out as he reached for her paw. His wrists healed nicely as there was a thin line where the stitches were. Judy saw this and placed her tiny paw in his.

"Judy thank you for everything you have done for me. I dont know where I would be without you."

Judy shook her head and smiled.

"Remeber what Barbra said Nick "Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts always hopes, always perseveres.

Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. 9For we know in part and we prophesy in part, but when completeness comes, what is in part disappears. When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put the ways of childhood behind me. "For now, we see only a reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.

And now these three remain faith, hope, and love. But the greatest of these is love." I love you Nick remember that alright."

Nick shed a tear as he brought her paw to his maw and kissed it.

"I love you, Judy."

Rusty returned to see both the scene and the scars as a large fox with fur white as fresh winter snow and calm jade eyes came up to the table with a kind smile. He was wearing an ice blue T-shirt with Rusty written across. He had Buddist prayer beads on his right paw and a red bandana on his head and red and white toraichi pants. On his bottom paws, he was wearing Tabi.

"Hi, this is Pete our head chef and resident fisher fox."

Rusty introduced the fox with his usual grin.

"Hello, I am as Rusty said Pete its is nice to meet the both of you."

Nick nodded and extended his paw.

"Hello I'm Nick and this lovely rabbit is Judy. I just wanted to say its good to see another fox that does not perpetuate the stereotype of foxes being criminals."

Pete just nodded with a small frown as he sighed.

"Agreed, Thankfully it is only here in the U.S that it's enforced by other mammals. In Japan, our vocations are normally that of warriors,police, or other forms of protectors."

Pete said as he rubbed the bridge of his snout. Nick nodded as he took a sip of his coffee.

"Really? That is so cool I hope I can meet other officers from other countreys!"

Judy said as her eyes lit up like fireworks. Pete looked at her with a foxy grin that Foxes were known for.

"That would be cool. So your an officer Mam?"

Pete inquired as Judy nodded her head.

"Yep both me and Nick graduated a few months ago at the top of our class. That was how we got together as well. "

Pete looked over at the red fox with awe as Nick nodded.

"Yup we met during basic and while I can't say it was love, at first sight, I can say it was a fast friendship that bloomed quickly."

Nick exclaimed as Judy nodded. Pete looked at the duo with a mix of wonder excitement.

Rusty coughed as The three turned to the Cocker.

"So while you're here Pete why dont you tell them the specials."

Pete blushed as he rubbed the back of his head.

"Sure boss. Today we have fresh sturgeon in a Japanese curry sauce with a side of rice as well as a mealworm salad."

Judy's eyes lit up in delight when she heard the last item

"Can I have the mealworm salad?"

Judy asked with her usual enthusiasm. Pete whipped out a notepad and wrote it down.

"And For you Nick?"

Nick smiled and Looked over the menu.

"I think I will go for the sturgeon curry please."

Nick said with a smile as Pete added his order to the pad.

Pete nodded as he went into the kitchen to work on their meals.

"So Judy what are you going to wear to the conference?"

Nick asked as he sipped his coffee. Judy shrugged.

"I might just wear my dress blues. What about you honey?"

Nick thought as he stirred his coffee.

"I might just wear one of my suits."

Judy thought for a second before snapping her fingers.

" You mean those victorian clothes that you have next to your dress blues?"

Nick nodded with a wistful smile as the smell of burnt fur filled the air.

"Seems like Geoff is done with the forge"

Slappy said startling the couple causing them to remember they were seated next to his tank.

"You both forgot I was here didn't you?"

Slappy stated with a smug smile as they had the decency to look sheepish.

They both nodded as Geoff exited the kitchen with a wide grin as he made his way up to the couple with their orders.

"Sorry for the wait they were short-pawed with me in the forge."

He stated as he placed a yellow curry in front of Nick that had large chunks of sturgeon with vegetables and rice.

"This looks delicious!"

Nick stated with a smile as the corgi placed a salad with lettuce, tomatoes, onions, spinach, and mealworms in front of Judy.

"Pete's food is always a treat trust me."

Geoff exclaimed as he went back to the kitchen.

A small amount of time passed as they finished their food and paid their bill. Nick and Judy wasted no time getting back on the road and they were back on the road back to Zootopia. It was half an hour before they were back home in the studio apartment that they had turned into their love nest.

"Its good to be home Nick."

Judy stated as Nick nodded as he started to take off his shirt.

"Tell me about it Jude it was a nice visit too."

Nick said as the phone rang.

Nick walked over to the phone and answered it.

"Hello? Oh hi, mom! Yeah, we just got back. How is Rachel? That's wonderful. Alright, I will tell Jude you said hi stay safe alright mom. Love you. "

Judy listened to Nicks conversation as it wrapped up and nick walked over to his mate.

"Mom said hi and she hopes your doing alright."

Nick stated as if he did not know she was listening in.

Judy just smiled and shook her head as she pulled Nick over to their bed.

"So ready to make the world a better place my mate?"

Judy asked as she hugged his chest.

"Always Judy. Always."

Nick said as he drifted off to sleep with his mate on his chest.
