3: Naturally

No one question Nick and Judy's relationship both in the office and outside the office. They went from natural enemies, to friends, then partners and after being partners for a few months, they just seemed inseparable. So best friends basically. People used to joke what it would be like for them to be in a relationship. But no one, not even Nick or Judy, had any indication on what was to come, for no words were spoken.

Now let's go back to when everyone seemed to notice Judy and Nick were inseparable, everyone admired their friendship. And even though the station mainly consisted of males, gossip never passed by.
Officer Tusks, who was a boar, was talking to Officer Shortsnout, who was a pig; couldn't help but notice Officer Hopps and Officer Wilde's interaction. They were both doing some paper work, and reviewing some cases.
"Hey Kenneth." Officer Tusks called out to Officer Shortsnout.
"Yeah, what's up?" Officer Shortsnout replied.
"Look at Nick, he keeps ogling Judy there."
Officer Shortsnout then looked in Judy and Nick's direction and saw Nick doing exactly that. Eye ogling Judy to the point where if he looked away, she would be gone.
"Yeah, you're right. Why would that be, think the lad has a crush on the gal?" Officer Shortsnout replied.
"Maybe, doesn't it seem odd if he did though?" Officer Tusks asked.
"To some maybe, but this is bloody Zootopia for crying out loud."
Officer Tusks nodded and looked back at Nick and Judy to see Judy looking back up at Nick and smiling, he grinned back.

The gossip about the two didn't stop there. Sometimes on pursuits Nick and Judy refused to separate, everyone respected such a decision, because they worked better together.
However on one separate occasion, Judy and Nick were leaving the station for the day. Clawhauser bid them both goodbye for the day, they both grinned and said goodbye also, then just before they left the door, Clawhauser couldn't help but fall off his seat when he saw Nick grab Judy's waist and walk them both out. Since when were they this close?

"Are you sure you don't mind Nick?" Judy asked Nick.
Judy and Nick just walked into reception, paying no mind of Clawhauser who was playing a game on his phone. It has been a few weeks since the paw on hip incident, most people forgot about it.
"Of course I don't, besides your apartment sucks. You can hear everything, the walls are so thin."
Clawhauser looked up from his phone. What were they on about?
"My neighbours mean well, but I guess you being almost twice my size is a problem." Judy laughed awkwardly.
"For a rabbit the size of your apartment is fine, but two foxes could barely fit in that place." Nick replied, sounding slightly annoyed.
Clawhauser pretended to pay attention to his phone as they paused mid walk and discussed the conversation further.
"Well, you don't seem to be changing your mind any time soon. The moving truck will be down at your place in a few days, I don't own a lot."
Clawhauser couldn't help but drop his phone.
Judy and Nick looked at Clawhauser in concern.
"You okay Ben?" Judy asked.
"Oh yeah, just forgot to eat breakfast this morning, kind of lightheaded."
Judy widened her eyes.
"Oh, I'll go quickly grab you something to eat, I am sure Bogo won't mind my slight absence."
Nick then started to put on a dramatic performance.
"Carrots...how could you...leaving me to give good ole Benjamin some food."
Judy pushed Nick softly and laughed.
"Oh you don't have to do that." Clawhauser argued, This is what he gets for lying, but he isn't going to lie he is hungry.
"Nonsense, you are a good friend, least I could do." Judy then quickly kissed Nick on the cheek and hopped out.
"Could I food too!" Nick yelled out before she exited.
But it was too late, she hopped out so quickly, a cheetah would of missed her, speaking of cheetah's.
"Mind sharing snacks when she comes back? She woke me up at 5am again." Nick grinned at Clawhauser.
"No not at all-" Clawhauser had to ask. "Are you two-" But before he could finish, Judy was back with donuts, that was quick, how did she do that so fast? Was all Clawhauser could think.
"Here you go Ben!" Judy smiled.
Clawhauser smiled back, guess he could ask later, she got his favourite flavours.
Judy then looked at Nick's uniform and frowned.
"Can't even tie your tie properly." She mumbled.
Clawhauser then continued to watch the two interact, he ate a strawberry iced donut in the process.
"Your fault for making me rush this morning." Nick grumbled back.
Judy quickly fixed his tie and then dragging him to the office. So that was Clawhauser's cue to call one of co-workers on his phone.
"First one to ask Judy and Nick if they are together gets donuts from me for a week."

It was like a high school courtyard, all of the officers were trying to get the guts to ask Judy and Nick for about a week now. And every time one of them had a chance, someone was called for a case.
So it was to be expected, before they both left for the day, the whole department raced up to them and asked.
"Are you guys together?"
Judy and Nick were slightly startled at the larger animal's outburst, everyone single one of their co-workers were currently surrounding them. Judy laughed.
"Well yeah, I thought it was obvious." Nick couldn't really look at anyone in the eye, he couldn't admit he was embarrassed.
"But when did this happen?" Officer Trunks asked.
Nick then looked at Judy and was about to ask, then kind of looked at her in confusion.
"Was before I asked you to move in?"
All the officers looked at each other in surprise, Nick Wilde asked Judy Hopps to move in with him?
"No surely it was before that, because you took me out on that date about a month ago...But then again there was that time in my old apartment."
"You guys don't know do you." Officer Stripes asked.
Nick laughed.
"No we actually don't. Good one carrots."
Judy pushed him and laughed.
"Sorry I thought you all knew."
Clawhauser has to buy a weeks' worth of donuts for the whole department now.
