Chapter 32
A/N: Hellu all! Welp, school has finally finished and now I'm back into the writing scene! I'm sorry if it has took so long but I've now finished school and exams are all done so, yup! I'm now back! Hope you enjoy reading the chapter! I definitely did after a long and painful wait!
Knowing that the night is long gone in just the span of a few hours, but it felt like the moment was quick and exhilarating, the red fox felt the warm feeling of the morning sun lick upon his body. Opening his emerald pools, he was greeted by the blue wondrous sky, topped with a few fluffy clouds that you would see in a work of art and felt the velvet green grass tickle at his paws. Nick gasped slightly and looked around to see nothing but an endless looking field full of violets and solitude. He then turned behind him to see the familiar sight of the pair of curvy hips he so dearly loved. The tall, erect ears that stood from the roots of a bunny sized head that its figure was- bare and naked.
He smiled and crawled up to her in such a sly fashion you would always know that it was Nick's sly crawl and only Nick's. His eyes quickly darted to realise the fur on his chest fluttering in the gentle breeze. His eyes widened and looked behind him to see he, too was also bare and naked. He didn't mind, he felt like being at Mystic Springs again, but it came to him as a surprise he was already naked, also not in Mystic Springs. He resumed his careful footing towards the meek prey and pounced on top of her. The bunny squealed in delight and giggled as she fell to the soft and fresh green grass and looked up to her fiancé.
"I've got my bunny right where I want it." he murmured into her ear and kissed it softly, him still on top of her.
"I suppose you're right, my sly, strong fox." Judy replied and looked deeply into his eyes and stroked his fuzzy tail.
Nick raised his eyebrows and leaned in to kiss the bunny. Judy closed her eyes and brought his body closer to hers and wrapped her legs around his firm waist as the fox was about to collide his lips with her own.
"Nicholas!" she then yelled, opening her eyes in a snap. It sounded like it was important and urgent.
But before Nick could answer his beautiful bunny, he then found himself back in the bed of his apartment barely seeing from the squinting eyes of his as the light blinded him. He sighed sorrowfully, sad that the wonderful dream got rudely interrupted. Nick rubbed his eyes tiredly and sat up in the bed, Judy out of the bed. He wondered why Judy woke him up at six o'clock at the crack of dawn. Before he could ask, he heard the same loud and bouncy noise coming from the bunny.
"Nicholas! Quickly get up! We don't want to be late for work!" she called from the other side of the room, hopping on one foot as she tried to get herself in those stupid strap on boots of hers.
It was all clear why his wonderful dream was interrupted and he couldn't believe he forgot about it. Groaning softly as he heaved his heavy bones out of bed, he grabbed his uniform without any coffee beside him. "Now it makes sense…" he murmured to himself "I'm up dear! Nice sleep?"
They did their normal morning duties, rushing around tying ties and rushing all the way to the ZPD hub. They decided to stop at the sweet spot of the park on the way to pick up of Frank's delectable blueberry muffins and a cheeky battenberg cake for them to share whilst in the cruiser. When they said their goodbyes, the duo arrived at the reception and witnessed the normal beat that flowed through the system, the excuses on which person bared their teeth first and who started it seeped into their long and pointy lugholes.
When they arrived at the bullpen, it was booming with activity but definitely a lot more hyperactive than usual. A paper plane even floated between Judy's perky ears. Nick chuckled at the sight and bumped his hips against his fiancé. "A hundred points through the cute fluffy wuffy bunny ears!" he chimed happily, chuckling from his humorous remark.
Judy then crossed her arms in an annoyed fashion and took his tail to snuggle against it. Her cheeks began to burn in comfort and a hint of embarrassment in them. "A thousand points for snuggling the sly fox's fuzzy wuzzy tail!" she countered giggling with him. "I guess the sly bunny wins."
He smiled in amusement and petted her ears "I can live with the sly bunny does win. My sly bunny at that."
She smiled in response and took her regular seat at the front next to Nick. It felt somewhat weird and special to be sitting next to him now, especially when he and her are now fiancé and fiancée and engaged to each other. Some fellow officers eyed the bright green emerald ring that bore on Judy's finger and a few cat called to her.
"Hey, Hopps!" called one of the feline officers from the behind her table, slightly sniggering from the sight of the jewel like an immature schoolkit. "Who's the lucky guy?"
Judy just kept quiet and continued to look straight forward attentively. She didn't feel like it was right to announce their engagement right after the proposal. She wanted Nick to feel comfortable with announcing it first and she knew he felt the same way too. Nick held her paw from under the table and copied Judy's respectful figure.
"Atten-hut!" called the officer from the front and then Bogo stormed into the room a lot faster than usual. By the time everyone got out of their seats and started to bang on their desks, including Nick who still enjoyed the motivating move, Bogo sketched a rough drawing of an area of the city and boomed out in his loud and bold voice.
"SILENCE! EVERYONE SIT DOWN!"
Everyone stopped banging almost immediately and sat down in their seats, Nick following suite as the shockwaves of his voice streaked across his fur. He chuckled and looked to Judy wearing his sly expression. "My, someone's cranky today. Didn't he get his daily dose of painkillers or something?" he whispered to her fluffy ear, sniggering quietly.
Judy bumped him back a bit harder signalling him to be quiet and pay attention. She sure as hell don't want to get the chief even more crankier on an already bad day for the cape buffalo. But due to the witty and sarcy comment the clever fox conjured up, she couldn't help but let her smile widen ever more, uttering out a small snigger.
"Alright everyone, this has just came through from the fax." boomed Bogo. "An anonymous tip-off has credited us with an advanced warning of overhearing a conversation involving the Zootopia Transit System and the train line! A plot has been created to set a timed bomb off outside the main station and I need a full scale team to carry out security checks. This is priority number one!"
Judy and Nick couldn't believe their ears. Some mammal is willing to kill innocent lives and for what? An organization? It could be anything and Judy was willing to ask that very question. She put her paw up in the air and waved it enthusiastically.
"Hopps?" said Bogo with a straight point of his finger towards her.
She put her paw down and looked to the slouching Nick and kicked his foot telling him to sit straight, which he smirked at and kicked her foot back softly in a playful and charming way. She rolled her eyes and answered the awaiting chief. "Do you know any connections to this bomb threat?"
"Good question, Hopps." the buffalo answered. "We think it might be a hoax but we cannot be sure. What we could assume that this is the work of Phisher's gang wanting to cause fear on the streets and claim the district as their own. This bomb threat will cause panic and that's what they want. Then again, this could be an independent outside job for some other crime organization. But the most important thing is that we keep this job quiet from the public, newspapers, tabloids and any other nonsense that involves spreading the word. Is that clear all of you?"
"Yes sir!" everyone shouted in respect, except for Nick. He just chuckled and smiled again.
"Fantabulous, sir. Anything else you wanna stuff into our tiny minds?" he chuckled which followed a small pinch to the knee from his glaring partner. He smirked once more and brushed his foot against Judy's own which she actually quite liked in her mind. Knowing that it was a nice brushing to the foot, she kept her character.
"No, Wilde. But I'm going to stuff these into your heads. The important part of the team assignments." boomed Bogo and slapped a pointing stick to a board with names on it. "Officers Snarlov, Higgins and Rhinowhitz, you fellows are on high alert security who will be out holding firearms to guard the station from any suspicious on goers that enter through the barriers."
The three mammals shoved out their seats and followed Snarlov, plucking the file out of Bogo's hoof.
"Wolfard, Trunkaby, Fangmeyer, you are going to seek the surveillance guy and will by assessing the camera feeds through the station. And Hopps, Wilde, you will be on patrol in the unmarked BMW and will park outside of the station, keeping a lookout. Dismissed." he finished and exited the room.
Nick's ears folded back at the sound of his and Judy's assignments. He quickly shoved his chair out of the way and was about to call the chief back, but has already disappeared into the maze of corridors. Knowing that he couldn't do anything, he sighed. Feeling a familiar tug to his shirt, he turned around to see the grey bunny pointing to the unmarked Beaver outside.
"Come on, Nicky! We don't have any time to lose!" she exclaimed and grabbed his tie, yanking it along with her, Nick gagging slightly from the ever growing tightness around his neck.
"Okay! Okay! I'm coming! Not the tie!" he whimpered between gasping breaths.
As they got to the parking, they unlocked the black Beaver and Nick helped Judy climb up into the passenger seat by the curvy waist of hers. Knowing Judy would normally drive the vehicles, Nick offered to drive for the welfare of her and the baby. The whole reason why he was worried about the positions they were given was because Judy had to be put into a dangerous situation. He would have told her to stay here but Judy would want to tag along regardless and Bogo would just invite him over to his office and give him an hour and a half lecture on disregarding police orders. Nick plopped his butt into the driver's seat, cranked the engine and stamped his foot on the accelerator and sped off to the vulnerable station.
The station was the main tourist hub for all of Zootopia. Visitors and commuters come and go and an estimate hundred mammals pass through the ticket barriers every minute. The perfect target for crime. The wild Beemer swerved the last turn and skidded to a halt in a parking space at the front row where they eyed Snarlov, Higgins and Rhinowitz at the entrance holding rifles. He signalled them by flashing the headlights once and they gave them an acknowledgement signal. The fox smiled and leaned back in his chair and rested his feet on the dashboard, putting his arms behind his back and tipped his shades up keeping a close eye on the mammals.
"So, what shall we do in the meantime?" he asked to the bunny who was digging through the glovebox looking for her binoculars and carrot shaped notebook.
"We keep a snappy eye on the station, duh!" she said with a giggle and swiped her tools out and wrote down her initial notes.
Nick then put his legs down and picked Judy up and set her on his lap, giving her an advantage to a higher height. "Do you think you'll benefit from being a bit higher?"
She blushed and swatted his muzzle playfully. "Yep, that is very helpful. Thank you darling!"
"No problem, whiskers." he replied giving her a quick peck on the cheek and looked from the side of her shoulder, overlooking her scribbling notes. She had the most perfect and cute handwriting he's ever seen. To pass the time quicker, he decided to comfort his bunny as she gave a sharp eye on the area. He gave her a soft but unnoticable belly rub and then he felt a little hard lump poking from her and blushed softly. 'My, the baby is already growing that fast… impressive.' he said to himself in his cranium.
After a while, the sun was baking at noon and the atmosphere began to get uncomfortable. Nick wiped his forehead clear from sweat, but that helped a little. His legs were very sticky from the growing heat and knowing Judy was possibly very comfy on him, he decided to let her be. He then proceeded to unbutton the top button of his police shirt and started to feel a bit better. Next, he kicked the AC on and the cool air stroked his and Judy's soft fur, fluttering from their bodies.
"You feeling okay, cottontail?" he said into her ear as she turned to her third page of notes.
"I'm perfectly fine, thanks for asking!" she replied, sticking her tongue out as she scribbled harder. The station is now at it's peak capacity and many mammals filed out into the street, a few going into a Snarlbucks to discuss the day's events over coffee and some lunch. Nick's stomach growled like a snarl from a wolf and he blushed from it.
"Hungry?" she asked as her ear twitched from the deep sound.
"Mm-hmm… I know what I'm hungry for..." he murmured, grinning from his remark.
Judy turned around and blushed a pink haze, smiling from her fox's joke. "I think you would enjoy today's special." She then kissed him on the lips deeply without relent and rubbed his shoulders as she began to make out. Nick smiled and closed his eyes and let his seat down slowly helping the kiss go deeper, moaning softly into her mouth and held her curvy hips.
After a few more seconds, they painfully broke the kiss and the red fox chuckled softly as he stroked the bunny's fuzzy cheek. "That was astounding and delectible, sweetheart."
She giggled and let the seat back up slowly, keeping her grip on Nick's tie and softly pulled it a few times in a seductive way. "The pleasure was all mine. Is your stomach full now?"
"Yup. It's full of love and butterflies thanks to you beautiful raveshing bunny." he grinned and pressed his nose against her little own. This wasn't like Judy, making out on duty wasn't really her roll. But Nick didn't complain, he thought it was a total far-cry to give some passion during duty. His stomach rumbled again and blushed.
"Oh, not very filling enough?" Judy said as Nick turned her around back to face the station.
"I guess not." he replied and rubbed her hips softly as she smiled and gone back to looking towards the vulnerable area.
2:55pm
Mammals were now coming back home after a long day's work. The officers have been at the scene for seven hours and nothing interesting has popped up yet but they now knew this was the time that the alleged bomb threat is going to take place.
"No suspicious sightings yet, team." reported Rhinowhitz through the crackled walkie-talkie. "Stand by."
Nick was rubbing his eyes and was about to nod to sleep. Judy was still looking through her binocular with the same energy she had seven hours ago. She knew when they got home, she wanted to treat Nick to a movie and a cuddle under the covers. But until she was told to go back home, she still rolled through as Officer Hopps.
"So, carrots..." chimed Nick. "Anything planned when we get home?"
Judy thought about the movie for a few seconds, and there was something to look forward to that was going to pop up onto the streaming service tonight. "How about a special screening of Fast and the Fur-ioust?"
Nick could live up to that and gave her a quick kiss on her small, pink and twitchy nose. "Sounds like a plan!"
Whilst they were discussing the night's plans, the radio crackled once more. "10-20 (stand by) guys. Possible subject in sight."
Judy quickly scanned the area once more and saw the three armed officers confronting a mammal wearing a black leather jacket with what seemed a scar running across his left eye with a kiddie backpack. Judy kept her eyes on him and scribbled down notes and warned Nick. "Alright Nick, this must be a guy. His fashion says it all and fits a criminal like a puzzle piece."
Nick got his taser and charged it as he turned the engine back on. "Ready when you are, bun-bun."
