"Coco wake up!" I shook her awake. It was the first day of my senior year and I didn't want to be late. She opened her big blue eyes and stared up at me drowsily.
"Go take a shower and get dressed I'll make breakfast." I told her. She nodded.
I went to the kitchen to give her privacy. In the last week I had her watch Youtube videos to show her how to do make-up and blow dry her hair, and other hygiene things. Just so she would blend in a little more. Nat still wouldn't talk to me so I was hoping I could get to talk to her.
I started to make scrambled eggs the smell made me sick. I had made this way too much, it seemed like it was the only thing Coco ate besides water. I had given her money to buy lunch off the menu hoping she would eat something else.
Coco came down 15 minutes before we had to leave for school. I had to admit she looked pretty hot. She had her long blue hair in a side ponytail, she had jean capris, and a purple tank top on. She didn't look slutty in anyway, nor was she a slut, I had found a pair of jean shorts in the trash and I really didn't have the heart to put them back. Coco was definitely weird.
"Eat your eggs, then brush your teeth quickly. We have to leave soon." I told her. She took the quickly part to heart and she finished in 5 minutes. "Let's go." I said.
We got into my car and she asked me, "Why are you nervous?"
How could she tell? "Well just with what happened with Natalia and all."
"Its okay Jason." she gave me her signature smile.
"Thanks Coco. Just follow me today."
"Alright!"
We pulled up to the school and we got out, I saw Alex and a couple of my other friends sitting by the staircase leading to the school. "Alex!" I yelled forgetting about Coco.
Alex and my friends turned around and their eyes practically bulged out of their head.
"Who's the hottie?" I heard a guy yell.
"You single?" Another said.
She just smiled and walked next to me waving like she was on a float at a parade.
Alex and my friends, Nathan, Gabe, and Eddie walked up.
"You single?" Eddie who was a commonly known player asked.
"Single?" Coco asked.
"Whats her name Jason?" Gabe who was probably the most down to earth person ever asked.
"Coco."
"That's hot, what's your number babe?" Eddie asked his eyes were staring at her chest.
"Number? I have a name not a number." Coco giggled.
Eddie looked at her shocked, this was probably the only time I ever saw him not come up with some type of come-back.
The bell rung before any other questions could be asked.
We got to the first class of the day, AP Calculus. My least favorite subject. And least favorite teacher Mr. Halmilton.
"Looks like we have a new student today let's see if you are good at Calculus. Miss?"
"Coco stand up." I whispered to her.
She stood up, a whistle sounded in the back.
"Name?"
"Coco."
"Okay Coco what is the critical number of the function?" He wrote the problem:
g(t)= I 6t-9 I
t=
"You can write it down if needed." he said after writing.
"One point five." she said.
Mr. Halmilton raised his brow, "Correct Coco!"
I looked up at her shocked she didn't know how to blow dry her hair but she could figure that out in five seconds?
The rest of the class continued with Mr. Halmilton asking Coco difficult questions with her answering pretty quickly and it was the right answer every time. She even corrected him on one of them.
Where did she come from?

The bell rung for lunch and Coco seemed to make a couple friends throughout the day. Although I did hear her name wherever we went she was the talk of the school, a complete mystery. In third hour I had heard from Nathan that a rumor about Coco sleeping with me and her being a slut started but it had quickly died out because it was clear that Coco was nothing like that.
Coco was taken away from me by two girls Marina and Azura. "She doesn't have to be by you all the time you know." Azura told me.
"Ya she needs girl time." Marina added.
That was fine by me.
I sat down with my friends the first thing I heard was "Coco."
"Why haven't you tapped that yet?" Eddie asked me slyly.
"Because I'm not a manwhore." I told Eddie.
"To true." Eddie agreed with me. "Where is she by the way?"
I pointed to the table on the far side of the cafeteria. You could clearly see her bright blue hair contrasting with the normal blondes and browns.
"I wanted Coco to sit here." Eddie whined.
"Shut up about her already you'll be over it in a week." Gabe said as he sat down.
"Stupid fuck." Eddie murmured.
"Not always." Gabe smirked
Eddie looked like he was about to kill Gabe when an interruption came from across the room.
"Oops sorry Coco." I heard Natalia say.
"Cat fight rawr." Eddie said.
I ignored him and ran over to where Coco and Nat was. Coco was on the floor, and Nat and one of her friends were standing over her.
"Coco?" I asked.
"Jason! How are you?" Nat came up to me and smiled.
"Nat what did you do?"
"Does it matter Jay?" Nat gave a puppy look.
"Well ya it does."
"God your fucking stupid." she hissed. "You cheated on me for her?"
A couple murmurs swelled from the crowd.
"I didn't actually." I retorted.
"Well I-" she coughed up blood.
"Is she alright?" Coco asked. She was standing now, an indescribable emotion flicked across her face.
"I think so."
