Chapter 7

Nick removed his shades as he entered a bar that he and his old partner used to frequently attend back his old hustling days. He winced at some of his old memories here, specially that one time he got time he got in a fight and barely getting out alive boy he was lucky that day, he had a door to thank for that. He spotted Finnick sitting at the bar and he sat "hey Fin," Nick greeted as he sat down on a stool.

"Hey Nicky, long time no see, sit down I'll get you a beer." Finnick said as he signalled to the bar keep.

Nick shook his hands, "uh, no thanks bud, I don't think I should."

Finnick raised his eye "not like you Nicky you'd usually be up for a beer."

Nick shrugged and nodded "yeah normally, but not right now I'm sorta still working so I don't wanna get drunk."

Finnick shrugged "doing some over time huh?"

"Yeah you could call it that," Nick chuckled as he turned to the small fox who was gulping down a large sip of beer, "so how's business?"

Finnick sighed in content after his gulp of beer, "going great, I'd wish took up this business sooner, for the fact that I've met someone doing this."

This was news to Nick as his eyes widened in shock as he didn't think his old partner would ever go with anyone. "Wow Fin, who is it?"

Finnick seemed to look away unsure of whether or not to tell the fox in fear of what he might think though he didn't usually care what anyone thought he always some what cared what Nick thought. Nick seemed to notice his friends behaviour. "I'm not sure I should."

Nick frowned, "come on buddy, you can tell me anything."

The smaller fox sighed "alright, it's not like I care about anyone's opinion anyways...I met a hare, I kinda got to like her and we're now dating."

Nick's eyes widened then he smiled "that's great Fin, I'm happy for ya bud."

"So how about you Nicky, how's life being a cop?" Asked Finnick.

...

Meanwhile back at Nick's flat Judy had been watching TV still when she received a call from Mrs Otterton, she grabbed her phone from the side of the couch, she smiled at the caller ID she hadn't spoken to her in while, "oh hello Mrs Otterton, how are you?" Judy said as she relaxed into the couch her ears listening out in case Taylor decided to wake up.

"Hello, Judy, sorry for calling so late."

"Oh, it's not a problem it's not too late is everything ok?" Judy asked curious to why the otter might be calling.

"Oh, everything's fine dear, it's just my boys have been begging me to see if they can come and see you and Nick they just love you're company and I guess I just wanted to ask if there was a day when both of you are free?"

Judy smiled but it faltered when she remembered the baby but she didn't want to disappoint Mrs Otterton's boys Mike and Jay, they were great kids Judy then thought about asking the otter for advice on the baby as Mrs Otterton was an experienced mother of course so was her own mother was too, but if she asked her she wold most certainly freak out. "we'd love to see you guys again, in fact me and Nick have free time tomorrow if that's ok?"

"Oh, that's wonderful dear, thank you. My boys will be so excited when I tell them. Were and what time should we meet?"

Judy thought for a moment, "hm, how about the park and about noon?"

"Great you know they'll probably ask you play football." Mrs Otterton chuckled.

Judy laughed too, "they probably will, but I will be happy to play with then them and I'm sure Nick will too."

"Ok Judy thank you so much we'll see you tomorrow." Mrs Otterton said and she hung up.

Judy sighed in content as she put the phone down, just as she did Nick came in looking rather nervous Judy smiled as her ears perked up "oh hey Nick how was things with Finnick?"

Nick seemed to be rubbing his head and fidgeting quite a lot Judy frowned slightly, "h-hey carrots, things are good Fin's got himself a girlfriend."

Judy eyes widened and smiled "really good for him."

Nick nodded as he sat down next to her "yeah...and uhhhhh, while I was talking to him I realised something..."

Judy looked at Nick curious to find out what this could he realised, "what's that Nick?"

Nick could feel himself starting to sweat he was so grateful for his fur being red that Judy couldn't see him blush, was he really ready for this? He thought to himself. He'd had a feeling that he had strong feelings for his partner but all it took for him to realise and admit it was a conversation with Finnick and he felt now was as good as any time to tell her, "c-carrots I...I..."

Judy raised her eyes in confusion at her partners odd behaviour, Nick never ever showed how nervous he was before even during a tough case and she could see it, "N-Nick there's no need to be nervous...it's just me." Judy said in a calming voice.

Nick took a deep breath and let it out, he opened his mouth when all of a sudden a loud cry broke the silence then the sound of a window smashing caused to Judy to yelp "TAYLOR!" She yelled as she sprung off the couch and into the bedroom as fast as she could Nick following suit. "Stop in the name of the law!" Judy yelled as she gasped at a wolf dressed in a black spy held a crying Taylor in his paws.

Judy growled as he tried to climb out the widow using her feet she jumped up and sprung herself towards the wolf who'd almost pulled himself out the window and onto the ladders outside the window Judy aimed straight for him he yelped and flung the baby in the air and Judy caught as she nosed dived into the floor her arm at full length.

The wolf himself had fallen over the rail of the ladders that lead to the roof he yelped as he pulled himself off the ground limping slightly, he looked up at the window and saw the fox staring out snarling at him. The wolf saw him turn to go inside and he attempted to get out of the ally-way but just as he did Nick appeared before him.

"Who the heck are you?!" Nick growled out.

The wolf smirked as he looked at the wall behind him he could easily climb over that even with his sore shoulder. He looked back at Nick, "no one to concern yourself with fox, next time I suggested you let us take that baby or else...It really won't end well for you or that rabbit of yours." He chuckled and used all his strength and jumped from wall to wall and over the one that was behind him.

Nick eyes widened as he said that, his ears perked up at the sound of Judy voice, "Nick?!"

"Nick...did he get away?" Judy asked as she was holding Taylor rocking her a little.

Sighing Nick nodded, "y-yeah he climb over that wall before I could get him."

Judy sighed too, "why do they want her so badly? I will not let them experiment on a innocent child no matter what type of mammal she is." she said looking down at Taylor.

Nick looked back at the way the wolf had went he was not going to let them get Judy or the baby, "don't worry carrots, we will keep her safe, now come on let's get back inside, guess we should tell the chief about this." Nick said as they went back in.

"Yeah we'd better." Judy agreed it was now pretty late so the two decided it was best to go to sleep, Nick had offered Judy his room since the window was smashed and Nick was going to board it up until he could get it repaired.

Nick sighed as he sat on the bed he rubbed his neck thinking about how he almost told Judy about his feelings, "guess I'll just have to wait for the next moment. I just hope she feels the same..." He mumbled as he got into bed.
