Chapter 2: Adoption, a new look, and a new friend.
Nick's POV
The next morning I woke up at my own pace, gotta love that about vacation, no waking up when required just how, and whenever you want to. The first thing I noticed was I was on back, and Nico was lying on top of my shirtless chest, him shirtless as well as he slept listening to my heart beat, while my arms clutched him close to me as he cuddled into the warmth of my fur, and my tail wrapped tightly around him.
I couldn't explain it but I felt the same kind of love that father would have for a son, I mean as a fox I am naturally family driven, and it's upseting that mammals always ignore this side of foxes, and choose to see only, sly, shifty untrustworthy foxes, but what was it about this boy that so brought this side of my nature out. I lay on the bed hugging Nico close to my body, as I ran my paw through his caramel colored hair, which felt like my fur, every so often kissing his head.
Finally I felt it was time to get out of bed. " Hey kiddo, it's time to wake up." I said, as I brushed my tail across his exposed, furless back, causing him to shiver slightly, so I kept at it, until finally he opened his beautiful, blueberry, blue eyes, and yawned.
" Good Morning, Sleepy Head." I said, as I massaged his body into concouseness, " Did you sleep well?" I asked, checking his ankle, which surprisingly healed over night. That's when I felt my tail being tugged, and I looked to see that it was him clutching my tail, like a teddy bear, as he went back to sleep. " Alright young man, now you asked for it." I said, as I dove on top of him, and tickled him hard, making him squirm, and laugh as he tried to get out but I held him down.
" N-N-Nick p,p,p,please s,s,s,stop." He laughed, almost uncontrollably. " I,I,I,I c,c,can't b,b,breathe, a,and I'm gonna wet myself." He gasped,
" Are you awake?" I asked, still running my fingers across his pitts.
" Y,Y,Y,YESS!" He choked out, I finally stopped, and gently grabbed him by the shoulders, and lifted him into a sitting position, only have him tackle with a hug that I returned. " Alright kid let's get dressed, then go wash up for breakfast."
" Yes sir." He said, taking the clothes, he wore yesterday, and changing out of the sweat shorts He slept in, as he went the bathroom to freshen up, as I did the same I saw myself in the mirror, as I pulled off, my own sweat shorts, and got my pants on. " Why is this kid so important to me?" I asked, my reflection. " He's a very different species of mammal, and I only met him yesterday, and took care of him why is he triggering my natural drive to take care of him as if he were my own." I finished, as I buttoned my shirt, the instant he stepped out of the bathroom, fully dressed with his sweat shorts in his hand. He looked all nice, and washed up.
When we got to the Ketchen I set about making some pancakes, while I saw out of the corner of my eye Nico gazing out the window, longingly.
" Nick, after breakfast can I go outside, and play please?" He asked, Oh, the instant he asked I was pleading for mercy, I wanted him to go out, and make friends with mammals his age, but there was that part of me that knew that if I did there's no telling what could happen to him.
" Nico, I want you go outside, and play but the thing is, do you remember me telling you that so far as we know you're the only human in Zootopia?" He nodded, in understanding. " Well the thing is that other mammals might be scared of you because they don't know what a human is, and they might want to take you away from me, and do experiments on you, and can't let that happen." I said, pulling him into a hug, and kissing his forehead.
Nico was silent all through breakfast, " Nick is there away I can look like an animal so I can go out, and play?" He asked, That's when it hit me. I had just remembered that the ZPD had just ordered a series of costumes for under jobs, the costumes came a number of features that made the disguise more believable, like specialised un detectable, technology built into the costumes so the ears, tail, muzzle, mouth, and ears would respond to the emotions of the wearer.
" I think I know just how to do that." I said, after we were done with breakfast, I took his measurements, had him put on a hoodie, and got him in the car. " So Nico, if you could choose to be any animal what animal would you like to be?" I asked,
" A fox." He answered, as I turned up the heat slightly as it put him to sleep.
We first stopped at the shop that supplies the ZPD, with their costumes, which coincidently also happens to be where I got the elephant onsie for Finnick back in our con artist days, I gave them the measurements, and chose caramel, and cream as the two dominant colors, and chocolate for the details like the ear, and tail tip, as well as the paws. I knew that would take awhile to put together not to mention I knew Judy would wonder about it, and I planned on telling her about Nico eventually.
After that I drove us down to the DMV, to get an adoption form for Nico. I left him in the car with the window open slightly for air, lucky for me he was on break but I knew he wouldn't mind helping me. After a few hours I got what I needed, went back to the car, to find Nico still asleep, he looked so peaceful with his eyes closed, I took us to a deli for lunch ordered us a couple of sandwiches, went back to the shop for Nico's disguise, which was done as soon as we got there. I couldn't wait tell Nico saw it.
As soon as we got home I had a an idea, I lifted him out of the car, got him inside, stripped him down to his underwear, slipped him into his new outfit, and put his clothes on over it put the mask on which was attached to the suit, with the tail, ears, and muzzle were technologically designed to move, depending on emotions, how the mouth, and face underneath expressed. After that I slipped his clothes back on over the suite, and went to the living room to fill out the adoption form. I had just finished when.
" Aaaaaaaaah!" Nico came running into the living room, and right into my arms, with an expression of pure fear, and confusion on his masked face. " Nick, I, I'm a, a fox." He said, tears streaming from his eyes. " Nick what's happening to me? I don't know what to do, please help me?" He panicked.
I realized to late that my prank really scared him, I had never intended for that to happen, if Judy were here right now she would've had my head. " Nico, Nico, shhhh, calm down." I hushed as I held him close rocking him to calm him down. " Your not really a Fox." I explained, as I sat him on my lap, reached underneath his neck, and pulled the mask up, and off like hood. " See it's just a costume I bought you so you could go outside, and play like you wanted I wanted to surprise you." I explained, kissing his forehead. " I am so sorry my trick scared you, and I will never do it again, I promise." I said, hugging him. " Can you forgive me?" I asked, to which he answered with a hug. " I'll take that as a yes." I said, " Now Nico I want you to understand that if you need to go to the bathroom, or something like that make sure that you take off the suit, and put it back on when your done understand?" I explained, as we got started on the sandwiches I bought, as he nodded. " Also I'm gonna have a special friend over for dinner, and I'm gonna tell her all about you, okay?" another nod confirmed it. That's when he noticed the papers.
" What are these Nick?"
" Nico, I'm very glad you asked that question." I said, " These papers will let me keep you as my son." I explained, " Now I'm your dad." I said, as he embraced me.
" I love you, Dad." He said,
" I love you too Son." I whispered, as I returned his hug. After lunch we started making dinner mostly vegetable and, Nico was a big help, even with the Garden Pizza. He had just finished setting the table when the doorbell, rang. " I'll get it, why don't you go wash up for dinner buddy?"
" Okay, Dad." As he took off for the bathroom to do just that, While I answered the door.
" Judy, Thank you for coming." I said, taking her black police jacket.
" Well, thank you for inviting me Nick." she was wearing her pink, and white, blue jeans.
" It was no problem, Judy." I said, " Um, Judy can you keep a secret?"
" Sure, what's up?" She asked.
" Well listen just recently I adopted an orphan, and he's unlike any species of mammal in Zootopia, or the world for that matter." I explained, " So just give him a chance, he's a good kid, and promise me you won't tell anyone."
" Nick, your my best friend, and partner." She reminded. " I promise I won't tell anyone."
" Thanks, Judy." I said, " Nico, Come meet a friend of mine." Finally Nico, came into the dining room with his fox suit, and clothes on, but his mask/hood, down. He seemed nervous at first. " Nico, it's alright this is Judy Hopps my Police Partner."
" Nico, It's alright." Judy said, softly as she approached my son. " I'm a friend of your father's, I won't hurt you." She promised, as he finally shook her paw.
" Hello, Miss Hopps." Nico said happily, " Nice to meet, wow you're cute."
"Oh, Nico honey." She said, calmly, " Your father probably didn't tell you this but it's not okay to call rabbits cute, understand?"
" Yes, Ma'am." He said slighty upset.
" It's alright sweetie, you didn't know so I forgive you, just don't do it again alright, to any rabbit."
Dinner, went by smoothly. " So Nick, how did you find Nico, and do you know what he is, or where he comes from?"
" Well I found him yesterday sleeping on my couch, he has no idea how he got there, or where he comes from, no memory of anything for that matter, but he did remember who, and what he is, he said he's called a human."
" Don't worry I won't tell anyone about him." After a blueberry pie for dessert, Judy was ready to go home. " Well thanks again for dinner Nick it was really wonderful, and it was nice meeting you Nico, I hope we can meet again, and get to know each other more." She said, as she left.
" Good Night, Miss Hopps."
" Well what did you think of her?" I asked, Nico as we were back in the bedroom, stipping down to our underwear, after we brushed our teeth as for him even out of his fox suit 'til he was in his underwear too, only for us to put on our sweat shorts.
" I like her, she was nice." He said, getting in bed.
" Yeah," I agreed as I joined him, wrapping him in my arms, and tail around him. " She's really something isn't she? Welp time for bed Sweet dreams Nico."
" Good night, Dad." He said, as he snuggled into my fur, until he fell asleep to my heart beat, fur warmth, and I fell asleep too, after I kissed him on the forehead.
