Chapter 3
#3 of Spellbound (Wildehopps Enchanted AU)
Judy awoke to the sound of loud giggling, confused and blurry eyes the bunny sat up in bed and yawned. She placed her paws on the cold floor, and stood up walking down the hallway where she heard the giggles flowing from. As she made her way to the living room, she noticed the entire house looked sparkly clean and she blinked in confusion. Lifting her head, she gasped as she noticed her curtains, ones she'd received from her mother that covered the glass windows was missing chunks of fabric. Judy covered her mouth in shock and it was then she noticed, the fox from the night before sat smiling cheerfully.
"Good Mor-"
"What did you do to my curtains?!" Judy screamed. The fox jumped back in surprise, at the volume of the small bunny. And he titled his head, watching as the bunny covered her face in her paws groaning.
"I can't deal with this right now."
"Mommy, look at my pretty dress." A voice cut her off and Judy looked to see her daughter, twirling around in a dress. Judy looked from the dress to the curtains, finally putting two and two together. She smiled at her daughter, even though she could feel her blood pressure rising, and she looked to the fox.
"Right, well do you need to use the shower?" She asked. The fox stared at her bewildered.
"Shower? What is that?"
The bunny shook her head, where on earth did this fox come from.
"Nevermind, I will show you." She took him to the bathroom, and moved the curtain around turning the handle of the shower letting hot water sprout from the showerhead. She heard the fox gasp, and she watched as his eyes lit up.
'Wow, we never had this before in Fantasia. We just bathed in the rivers. But this is more magical, Ms. Bunny ma'am." He said.
"It's Judy." The fox turned to her.
"M'name I mean. It's Judy. Judy Hopps, and you're Nick, right? I think I heard my daughter call you that?" She introduced. The fox nodded shaking her paw with his.
"Yes, madam. My name is Nick Wilde. Nice to meet you Judy." He said. They stood awhile in silence, before Judy clasped her hands together softly.
"Right, well. I will leave you to shower. Here is a towel, and a robe for now. I will be back with some clothes." She stated, she left the bathroom closing the door softly behind her before making her way to the kitchen.
She smiled when she spotted Daisy sitting at the table coloring. Opening the cabinets, Judy grabbed the box of instant pancakes mix, and blueberries from the fridge (Daisy's favorite food), she grabbed the whip cream for an extra and shut the door. Pouring, the mix into a bowel the bunny added the milk and mixed it, setting the finished batter into the pan. She watched as the pancakes thickened and let them brown for a few minutes. Once they were done, she placed them on a plate, grabbing orange juice and pouring it into three cups. She grabbed the plate of pancakes and set them on the table.
"Here, baby." She handed her daughter the pancakes and then left to go notify the fox that breakfast was done. As she made her way to the bathroom, paw raised to knock the door suddenly opened. Nick who was staring at the ground, looked up and yipped sliding backwards, Judy tried to reach for his paw to help him. But saw that it was in vain, as her pull was too roguh and they both ended up on the floor. Judy yelped and tried to get out from under him, when a voice interrupted
"Judy?" The bunny in question looked up, spotting her boyfriend Jack who looked at her with anger and hurt.
"Jack! Jack wait, this isn't what it looks like. I swear.' She hopped up running to step in front of her boyfriend, who looked at her with doubt. She tried to explain, but he only scoffed.
Walking out of the door. Judy groaned as she saw his car speed away and she walked back into the house. Nick looked at her with concern, as she walked past him and into the kitchen.

'So, now that Daisy is dropped off. We gotta found out where I can take you while I go to work." Judy thought aloud, the fox looked to her in confusion.
"Oh, but I thought I was going with you?" he asked.
Judy chuckled.
"Not a chance, foxy. I have a meeting today and knowing you. Well, yeah that's not a good idea. " She finished. She turned to see the fox looking at her with puppy eyes and she groaned.
"Okay fine, but don't draw any attention to yourself." With that, she took his paw and led the way to her work.
Already she regretted her decision.
