Heylo everyone, this is the writer. I hope you all enjoyed the first chapter. I know it is short, but I know for a fact the next ones are longer and filled with a ton more romance. (They are already written by me, after all ) so if you doubt the story, at least give chapter two a try next Sunday when it comes out. Until then, enjoy the treat of a story here.

First things first…this wasn't supposed to happen. This never was meant to get where it was, everyone said so. So my biggest question is, why did it?…

'12 hours earlier'

Im heading down the street, walking on the sidewalk, left after right, looking at the world through the same emerald eyes I've had since i was born here almost 36 years ago. I have always felt that this city, being my home, owed me something. That I could do whatever was necessary, take whatever I wanted, because that was my birthright

That is until recently…when SHE came along. with her spunk and her wit and that adorable look she gave me every time

no, you cannot think like that…

why not, she is…

you know why not. She IS your partner. Your work partner, nothing more than that. That has to be the end of things

Unless she feels the same

How would you even prove that…

And that is where I figure it out, figure out that the best way to settle this war in my head that has been going on for the past 6 months and finally have peace. I need to solve this issue the same way I have solved any other issue I have faced in my life. I have to use my natural abilities to con my way to the answers. my sly instinct to make sure I get the most honest answer I so need.

After all, I am a fox

"NICK!" I hear a voice of angels call out for me, so I turn around, dawning my infamous half lidded smirk with my paws in my pockets as I watch the cutest little bunny butt fly up the sidewalk towards me and the precinct we both work at, which sat a couple hundred feet behind me.

I suddenly take on a look of pure fear and raise both paws on the air

"I swear officer, I haven't done anything. I know I look shifty, but I am a cop myself and I'm just waiting for my partner."

I start weaving this incredible story in front of her as she starts to smile.

"She's the first rabbit officer ever employed at the ZPD. Maybe you heard of her, Judy Hopps. Yeah see Im the first fox too, so I got paired with some one more size appropriate to me. But maybe you can help find her, she is about this tall…" I say as i place my paw about a foot off the ground

"…and she has silver fur that twinkles in the cutest way, and she has the bushiest tail you've ever seen…" I suddenly stop as she pounds my arm with her fist

"Stop it Mr. Sly, I am not that tall and I thought i told you never to call me cute" she says with that fake angry tone she loves to use

I laugh as she does. "Okay, Ill stop. So where you been, fluff. I would've thought that you would always beat me to work, and yet here we are. Is it opposite day or something?" I say as I grin at her with my lids half closed, leaning on my knees to match her level.

She pauses for a second, then "w-well, i-i was running here and i was j-just thinking…here" she says as she shoves a box into my paws.

I look down at it and i look up confused. "Its not my birthday, Or christmas, so what is this?" I ask

"Its our s-six month anniversary since we became p-partners. So I just thought that Id get you something nice. Don't worry about getting me something in return or anything, It was just a spur of the moment type of thing. Anyway, umm…" she looks down and i do too, to see that I placed my paw on hers while we both held the box.

"Thank you Carrots. This means a lot" I say back

I see her blush deeply and she gazes up at me, then slowly pulls away. "Okay, well then I will see you inside." she runs in the door

I look down and I open the box. Inside is a beautiful 16mm sterling silver watch with a black background and gold lacing all along the sides almost looking like vines. the best part by far was the face, though. the outer bevel had twelve emeralds set in each hour position, however inside the watch, the same positions were marked by bright violet stones. the hour hand was set with a pair of deep green stones on either end, while the minute hand was bearing two deep amethyst gems. I then noticed the note inside the box after I had finished admiring my amazing gift

"Maybe now you can stop asking the time and find other questions to ask me, you sly fox ;)

Love,

Carrots"

I look down at it then back up, thinking of what it could mean. Then It hit me like a freight train

"Judy likes me" I whisper to myself. I start smiling as I walk into the precinct after that little rabbit.
