Ah! I'm so sorry; I got caught up in something... And I forgot all about this. And then when you guys bugged me I went to look for the story on my computer and I couldn't find it. So I'm restarting this chapter, I guess. Sorry for the wait!
Stitch would have to eat like a human, walk like a human, talk like a human, everything, perfectly before he could see Lilo. He figured this would take a few weeks. He was wrong.
"Jumba, how long is all this going to take?" Lilo needed him and he was sitting around in a lab. Stitch felt a little worthless.
"Think of yourself as a big toddler. The average human child takes about 2-3 years to gain control over its bodily functions." Jumba stated without much care.
"I do not have that much time! Lilo will be married by then!" Stitch had not expected this.
"Well, you do have one thing over a toddler, you understand English. That means you can receive more help. I'd say it might take you anywhere from a month more to a year." Jumba commented.
Stitch made an exasperated face and stumbled to his 'room'. Jumba set him up a place at the lab to stay that was more comfortable then a table. It was a small room with green paint on the walls and a blue carpet, a fashion-less room, but it had a bed and dresser. Jumba put a journal on the dresser for him to record personal progress.
Stitch opened the Journal and started a new entry,
Lilo... I am not sure how long this will take. But I'm going to learn to be human for you. I've almost got talking down, but I'm still having a little trouble pronouncing things... Writing is difficult too. These new hands make my writing really scribbly. Soon I won't walk so funny either. You'll love me someday. I just hope it's not after you and Keoni get married. I love you.
Stitch woke up and he found he had perfect control over every part of his body, it was all so natural! He got up slowly, and it was much easier then usual. He walked right out of the lab and out into the forest. Trees, all around him, a bright blue cloudless sky above him, dirt and grass beneath his feet, he knew what he had to do. He walked back to Lilo's house and knocked on her door. She answered and looked at him funny for a minute waiting for him to say something.
Stitch wanted to say something too, only his plan had never gotten this far. What are you supposed to say when you've been changed into a human? 'I love you'? She'd freak out. So and he could do is gasp, "Lilo…"
She looked at him, but still didn't recognize him. Stitch was blowing it.
OOooooh, suspense. I'm mean, aren't I? Kekeke, I tried to hard to avoid saying 'said' in this, didn't I? Anyway, I tried to make Stitch's sentences stiff, but it's too hard for me to write non-correct English! XD -DarkWings
