Chapter 6: One True Place

Lilo, Stitch, Nani, and David came inside the house. Nani carried Mele inside Lilo and Stitch's room and laid her on Lilo's bed. Stitch and Lilo ran up next to the bed. Stitch's ears drooped.

"Soka," he said.

Mele looked at him and shook her head.

"It's not your fault, Stitch. You saved me." she told him.

Stitch sat down next to her on the bed.

"Sorry your first surfing trip was a disaster." Stitch said.

"No, it wasn't. I had a great time. Everyday people fall in the water."

Lilo pet Mele on the head. "You're gonna be okay, Mele."

Nani came beside the bed and stroked Mele's fur gently.

"We'll try surfing another day when you get better." She told her.

"Yeah," Lilo agreed.

Nani looked at Lilo and Stitch. "Okay, you two, let's leave and let Mele rest."

Lilo climbed down off the bed and followed Nani out the door. Stitch looked at Mele again. She smiled at him. He gave a weak smile.

"Stitch, come on." Nani called.

"Bye, Stitch." Mele said.

Stitch lay next to her and hugged her gently.

"I'm still sorry." He said.

Mele purred quietly. "It's ok." She assured him. "I'm fine, I promise."

Stitch sighed and started to get up.

"Stitch?" asked Mele.

Stitch looked at her. "Yeah?"

Mele smiled and gave him a soft peck on the nose. Stitch smiled slightly and slid off the bed. He walked towards the door to leave.

"Bye, Stitch." Mele said again.

"Bye, Mele." Stitch answered her and walked out the door.

===

When Stitch came in the kitchen, Nani was busy washing dishes and Lilo was just sitting there sadly.

David looked at Nani. "How's Mele?" he asked.

"She's going to be fine." Nani answered.

"Well, do you need me to stay?"

"You can leave when you want." Nani told him.

"Okay," David said. "I think I'll stay here for a few more minutes."

Nani nodded and continued to wash the dishes.

Pleakley walked in. "What happened?" he asked.

"Mele fell in the ocean, but she'll be fine. Don't worry." Nani said.

Pleakley got a sad look. He normally didn't like Jumba's experiments, but you just couldn't help loving Mele.

When Nani told Jumba, he went inside Lilo and Stitch's room to see Mele and make sure she was okay.

Nani sighed. "Too bad you couldn't find Mele a home." Nani said.

Lilo could tell that what Nani said wasn't really how she felt. But she didn't say anything about it.

"I hope we find her a great home and I hope she's happy." Stitch said.

"Me too." Lilo agreed.

Nani got out the tropical punch out of the refrigerator.

"I'm going to give Mele something to drink." Nani said.

She poured a glass and left to go to Lilo and Stitch's room.

"Hey," Nani said.

Mele smiled. "Hi, Nani."

Nani walked in and sat down next to Mele.

"I brought you something to drink." She told her.

Mele smiled. Nani handed her the glass.

"Thank you," Mele said and drank the punch.

Nani scratched her behind the ear softly. "You'll feel better soon, Mele. Right now, you just rest."

"I'm already feeling a lot better. I hope Lilo and Stitch find me a family that's as nice as your family." Mele said.

Nani rubbed her head. "I'm sure they will."

Mele smiled, curled up, and began to purr.

"Good-night, Mele." said Nani.

Nani left the room and came back to the kitchen.

"Is Mele alright?" asked Stitch.

Nani nodded. "She just fell asleep for the night. She'll be great tomorrow and then you two can find her a home…"

Stitch's ears drooped a little. He knew Mele needed a home, but he didn't want her to leave. Mele had become such a good friend to their family. Why did she have to leave?

"I think you guys need to get some sleep too." Nani told Stitch and Lilo.

Lilo looked at the clock. It was already 10:31 pm.

"Yeah," she said.

Her and Stitch left to go to their room.

"You can stay with Mele tonight, Stitch. I'll sleep in your bed." Lilo said.

Stitch nodded and climbed in the bed next to Mele. Lilo got up in his bed and they went to sleep.

===

The next morning, Mele woke up. She saw blue. She backed up a little and saw that she was snuggled next to Stitch. She giggled silently and nuzzled his chest.

After everyone had woken up, Nani came inside Stitch and Lilo's room. Lilo was getting ready to go out and find Mele a home.

Mele yawned and started to get up.

"There's been a change." Nani said.

"What?" asked Lilo and looked at her.

"You don't need to go out and look for Mele a home." Nani told her.

Stitch looked at her confused. "Gaba?"

Nani sat down beside Mele and pet her head softly.

"Mele has her one true place." Nani said still petting Mele. "With us and our ohana."

Lilo beamed. "YAY!" she ran to Mele and hugged her.

Stitch hopped on the bed and licked Mele's cheek. Mele giggled.

She had her one true place…finally.

Was that good? I'll update soon!!! R&R!!
