"Nick, it was a date!" Judy said to her partner in their station cubicle.

"It was not!" he insisted while looking over their pile of paperwork. "Going to a concert with your co-workers and parents doesn't count as a first date!"

"I bought the tickets and asked you to go with me."

"As friends!"

"Ugh! Fine, then. What is your version of a first date, Mr. Fox-Who's-Obviously-Been-On-So-Many-Dates-Before?!"

A blush crept up on his face.

"Ah-ha! So it seems my partner has had past romances in his lifetime…"

"It was a long time ago," he stated before he quickly started writing, but Judy wasn't letting him get off that easy.

"Who was she?" she asked with a smirk.

"None of your business," he said as he faced her, "and I'm sure you had some bunny boyfriends you're not telling me about, either."

Now it was her turn to blush. She held her arm, rubbing it, as she confessed, "I've…never had a boyfriend or a first kiss…"

His eyes widened at this new information.

"I…don't know why…but no one in Bunnyburrow held my interest. I've been asked, sure, but…I found I couldn't go out with them…I figured it was my ambition to be a cop because I knew I couldn't get distracted if I wanted to get accepted into the academy."

Nick put two and two together, "But since our newfound relationship…"

"I find that I have feelings toward different species…" she shrugged with a smile. "Not that's a bad thing."

He smiled back at her, "See? This is what I'm talking about. The first date needs to be extra special, especially for a bunny who's never been in a relationship before."

She playfully nudged him just as a stern tone broke up their sweet moment.

Chief Bogo said, "Hopps, Wilde. My office, now."

Nick muttered as they followed after their boss, "What did we do now?"

Bogo heard the comment, "Nothing, but make a smart remark again and you'll find yourself on parking duty for a month, and that includes Hopps."

Judy gave her partner a glare, saying, Don't you dare say anything.

They got to the chief's office as they sat down and Bogo began looking over his files with his reading glasses.

"Now, I asked you here because I have a very important assignment for you."

Judy perked up at the mention of "important assignment" while Nick mentally chuckled at his eager partner.

"Now, I'm sure you're aware of the famous Gazelle…" Nick could see the chief was holding his excitement in, but due the fact that he was at her concert a couple days ago, he wasn't doing a very good job. "She's going to have a major party celebrating her success - black tie, very fancy - and her agent called us to see if we could provide additional protection just in case."

Judy frowned, "Why? Is something wrong?"

"Well, it's unclear, but ever since the concert, there have been small accidents…"

"What kind of accidents?" Nick asked.

"Things that have fallen too close to Gazelle, and once, she nearly slipped into an open trapdoor." His nostrils flared, obviously not happy that his favorite popstar was being threatened like this.

Judy wasn't happy, either.

"Which is why I'm sending you two to the party. As the smallest members of the force, you'll be less conspicuous and you just might be able to pick up on something that's not right. Got it?"

Judy stood on her chair and saluted, "You got it, Chief!"

Nick slowly rose up and said, "So, how come you didn't want to personally volunteer for this assignment?" Despite that, Nick figured it out when Chief said that they were the smallest members.

Bogo caught on the fox's sarcasm, "You're lucky I need you two or else you would be wearing matching meter maid uniforms right now, handing out tickets! Now get to Clawhauser so he can give you the details and get ready for that party!" He practically chased them out of the office and slammed the door behind them.

Nick had his smug look on, "That went well."

Judy groaned as they headed to the front desk, "You're lucky he didn't fire us."

"Please, like he would be stupid enough to fire his best cop team. Ever since the Night Howler case, we've been bringing in all sorts of crooks."

Ben Clawhauser had his mouth full of doughnuts when he heard that part and mumbled out, "Yeah, the jail has never been fuller, thanks to you two."

Nick gestured and gave her a look, See? Told you so.

Judy sighed and told Ben, "Chief said you had details of Gazelle's party."

He swallowed and gleefully said, "Do I ever! You guys are so lucky!" He handed the paper over.

"If this were a social call, we would have invited you along with us." Judy smiled.

"Think while you're there, you can get me Gazelle's autograph?" he asked with hope.

"Sure, buddy." Nick said.

Clawhauser mustered every part of his body to keep from geeking out.

Judy waved him off as they headed outside to their squad car.

"So partner, I guess we'll have to hold off on that first date for now," she said, taking the driver's seat as always.

"Who says? We'll be dressing up tonight, won't we? And we'll be partying with your favorite singer. The timing couldn't have been more perfect."

"And how is this any different from the concert?"

He counted the reasons with his fingers, "No boss, no parents, and thousands of screaming fans."

"But we'll be on assignment."

"So? We can mix business with pleasure…" he twitched his brow.

Judy sighed. "Alright, I give." She started driving as she said, "I'll drop you off, then I'll call Fru Fru to see if she can help me pick out a dress for the party."

"I still can't believe you're such a lucky rabbit. My history with Mr. Big, as you know, isn't a good one, but just as we were about to be iced, his daughter recognizes you for saving her and now you two are the best of friends."

Judy smirked, "You jealous?"

"No! No, I know it's all girl talk when you're with her. You don't need me there for that."

She giggled.

"I tell you, Carrots, you were born with a lucky rabbit's foot. Two, in fact, because you always manage to get out of the worst scrapes."

"Hmm… maybe you're right. I mean I was pretty lucky when I met you when I did."

"You sure were." he grinned at her.

They kept flirting when Judy stopped at an apartment complex. Nick kissed her cheek before getting out and said, "Pick you up at seven?"

"You better," she batted her eyes before punching it and driving away from his sight.
