Stitch in Time

Stitch had gone up the road to see a girl he had a crush on. Her name was Celine Tyler, and to him she was the most beautiful girl in the entire school. While riding bikes with his cousins, he had seen her playing in her back yard and he couldn’t believe how close she lived to him. With school almost over for the summer, he wanted to make sure he could see more and more of her. She was one of the reasons he enjoyed going to school so much, and the main reason he dreaded summer. But now that he knew she lived close by, he could enjoy the summer just like everyone else. On this particular day, Stitch and Celine swung on her swing while her mother brought cookies and lemon-aide to them. Stitch was positive that he was feeling genuine love and he didn’t want to stop feeling it. He might have only been nine-years-old, but no one could tell him different. As they swung on the swings and talked about their teachers, while eating peanut butter cookies, Stitch noticed the street lights had come on. He knew he needed to be home by the time the lights came on and he realized he was late in doing so, but he had to stay for a just a little while longer. He may have only been nine years old, but this was the best day of his life and he didn’t want it to end.
