Chapter 2. Stu Hopps
Judy's P.O.V.
I stayed up late last night. I was wondering, what if they don't like him? What if they're...afraid of him? I don't want Nick to feel offended like that. Or worse, feel like he was reliving the day with the cub scouts? The kids seem to like him, but I don't know about the rest. what if he runs into Pop-Pop? I tried to get out of bed and grab some carrot juice, which usually helps me sleep, but as I did, I knocked something over and woke up Nick. He was sleeping right next to me, in the same bed.
"You ok Carrots?" He asked sleepily. "Yeah, I'm fine. I'm just getting some carrot juice. It helps me sleep." I replied. I picked up the painting that fell. Not broken, what a relief! I walked downstairs and to the kitchen, and saw my dad drinking some carrot juice. "Can't sleep dad?" I asked. "Jude! Just who I need to see." My dad said. "What is it?" I asked "Can we, um, really trust that fox?" He asked. I glared at him. "Of course we can! Dad, he's my best friend!" I said. "Well I just thought th-" I cut him off. "Don't judge a book by it's cover! Especially when that book is an amazing, kind, and hilarious mammal like Nicholas Wilde!" I said. My dad felt ashamed.
"You mean all that Carrots?" I heard a familiar voice. I turned around and saw Nick. "Of course I did! You're my best friend!" I said. Nick then hugged me tightly. "...I'm sorry, Nick." My dad said. Nick let go of me. "You don't have to be, I'm used to it." Nick said. "Why don't we do a fresh new start?" My dad said. "...Ok." Nick said. We then went up to our room, and slept peacefully.
Nick's P.O.V.
I woke up with little bunnies surrounding our bed. "Good morning Fuzzy!" One of them said. I blushed a bit. "Aww, that's the cutest nickname!" Judy said, looking at me. She knew I was embarrassed by it. "My name is Nick, not Fuzzy." I said. "Ok Fuzzy! Can you play with us?" They asked. "PWEEEZ!" They said, with adorable puppy eyes. "Oh fine. But don't leave out your sister!" I said. The children giggled as the ran out the door to play with me, the so called, Fuzzy, and Judy.
We were playing tag. Those little bunnies were fast! And for tag, had the worst feature that Mother Nature could give me. A fuzzy tail. Almost the tags were on my tail. As for Judy, she got tagged zero times. I was EXHAUSTED after multiple rounds of tag. My fur was wet with sweat. Judy, however, wasn't tired at all! As she played with the little ones, I sat and drank some lemonade. She looked like she was having tons of fun. She came over and sat next to me when she was done.
"Phew! That was tiring!" She said. She grabbed some lemonade and drank with me. "So, how do you like it here?" Judy asked. "I kinda like it here, Carrots!" I replied. What I said made Judy smile. "I'm glad you like it here Nick." Judy said. "Do you wanna play Hide n Seek Fuzzy?" One of the little girl bunnies asked. "I'm kinda tired, but sure, why not." I said. And I spent the rest of the day playing, again. Except this time with Judy.
