"Stake-out"

Judy Hopps curled her paws against the binoculars making her vision enhance. She peered at the front door of the warehouse waiting for enough evidence of crime to report back. She placed the binoculars down on her lap, leaning against the leather seat of her car, she marked the time on her notepad.

"1:45 A.M-quiet, nothing so far." Her eyes moved to her partner, Nick Wilde, who had his attention on the car mirror as he picked at his canines. His nail scraped against his sharp teeth trying to get a stray piece of food stuck in between his molars. Judy cringed.

"Ugh! Nick!- do you really need to do that now?" She said, her nose furrowed in annoyance as Nick shrugged and leaned fully back against the passenger seat.

"Be cool-Whiskers...don't be so uptight." He said gently and let out a yawn. "Why don't you enjoy the peace and quiet?"

"We're on-Duty, Wilde." She replied sternly. "We can't let our guard down."

"With your hearing you can sense any animal who comes by-why don't you adjust your seat back and lay down next to me?" He winked. Judy rolled her eyes and picked up her binoculars.

"When are you going to take this seriously?" She muttered putting them up over her eyes.

"Some bunny is being a little grumpy from lack of sleep~" He flicked at her ears making her let out a irritable growl. She chose to ignore him and focus on the mission at paw.

Flick. Flick. Flick.

She slammed the binoculars on the dash.

"Nick!" She whirled only to find him with his hands behind his head smugly, with his eyes close.

"Shh! Judy-you're going to blow our stake-out..."

Her eye twitched as she lifted her paws as she imagined choking him with his own ugly, striped tie. He opened one eye at her coyly.

"Relax..." He began. "Just for five minutes-I'll open the sunroof and we'll look at the stars..." He lifted his arm up boredly and slide the sunroof open with ease. Judy rolled her eyes and let out a noise of frustration before finally agreeing. She leaned back against her chair until she was looking straight up at the roof. With her arms crossed she looked at the sky, unimpressed...at first. Her eyes slowly widen in awe. Little bits of stars shined through the harsh light of the city. In downtown she would have never seen the stars because of all of the all-night clubs for the nocturnal but since she was at the outskirts, she could finally see them in full magnificence. She let out a small breath feeling a pair of fingers curl into her shoulders. She went still from seeing a pair of emerald eyes staring at her.

"N-Nick?..." She shifted under him slightly. "What are you-"

"Hey." He interrupted, a soft growl rumble in his throat as he leaned in. "Just relax..."

Judy let out a soft gasp turning her head, her small paws holding his chest back. "N-no...we're on duty, we shouldn't!" She exclaimed. She let out a sharp gasp from his paw touching her ear.

"Nick!-...Nick stop!..." She said pushing against his chest. "This is unprofessional! I'm on-duty!"

"Whoa-chill!" He said defensively, retracting his hand back. "I was just getting a spider off of ya ear." He explained opening his paw.

Judy blinked as she saw a little black spider staring at her with eight red eyes. She sat up suddenly as Nick close his paw heading to the open window.

"O-oh..." She immediately turned redder than a tomato. With a toss, the spider was outside and Nick was left chuckling under his breath.

"You thought I was going to kiss you huh?" He grinned with a paw under his chin in amusement. Judy grabbed at her ear in embarrassment as she looked away.

"Of course I did, you jerk..." She muttered. Nick slowly placed an arm around her.

"Well if you want...I'm sure we can spare a few, little...itty bitty...minutes?" He pursed his lips slowly leaning in, only to meet the harsh palm of her hand.

"Wait! We got movement!" She exclaimed holding up the binoculars.

Nick frowned."Just in time to ruin the moment-"
