Luna pov: I'm so excited that my parents and I are on vacation since we're going to Santa Cecilia and I couldn't be happier!

I looked out the window and saw my reflection, I looked at my tan skin, my shoulder-length black hair which was in pig-tails.

All my friends thought that I looked like a girl version of Miguel from my favorite movie 'COCO' the only difference was our eyes, mine are amber colored.

"Luna, your favorite song is on." Mom told me, we smiled since one of my favorite songs is 'Remember Me' Hector's version from the movie.

"Why don't you sing along?" Dad asked me, I smiled even more since my parents love it when I sing to them. "Sure!" I replied to him.

[Luna]

Remember me

Though I have to say goodbye

Remember me

Don't let it make you cry

For even if I'm far away I hold you in my heart

I sing a secret song to you each night we are apart

Remember me

Though I have to travel far

Remember me

Each time you hear a sad guitar

Know that I'm with you the only way that I can be

Until you're in my arms again

Remember me!

"That was amazing sweetheart." Mom said with a smile, I'm happy that my parents smile like that but I stopped. "DAD WATCH OUT!" I shouted in fear, a truck smashed into us.

All I could hear was screaming and I felt pain when suddenly I felt nothing since I had blacked out from the pain. "What's happening?" I thought as I came too.

My vision was blurry and I heard someone calling for help. "What's happened, mijo?" A man asked in worry, before I could hear the response, I blacked out again.

When I woke up, I noticed that I was in someone's bed. "Where am I?" I whispered in worry, soon I heard voices but I didn't understand what was being said at the time.

"I'm going to check on her." A women's voice said, as the footsteps came closer I thought about leaving through the window but it was too late since the door opened.

I froze when I saw who the woman was. "That's Luisa! Miguel's mother!" I shouted in my head, she saw that I was up and smiled at me so I relaxed a little.

"I'm happy your awake but you shouldn't be up." Mrs. Rivera told me, so I got back into the bed all while wondering how I ended up in my favorite movie.

Mrs. Rivera told me that Miguel found me out cold in an alley so while Mr. Rivera went to get the doctor, Miguel's Tio Berto helped carry me to their house.

"Thank you for helping me." I said shyly, Mrs. Rivera smiled and said that she'd get something for me to eat despite my protests just then Miguel came in.

I noticed that he looked eleven so I guess we're starting a year before the movie takes place which means I'm one year younger then him. "Hola." Miguel said to me.

"Hi." I replied to him, I was nervous about all of this since I knew that I should've died when that truck hit my parents and I. "Are you okay?" Miguel asked me.

I nodded. "Thank you for helping me." I told him with a smile, Miguel smiled back then asked me where I came from so I told him that I'm from America.

"Where did you live in America?" Miguel asked in excitement, I told him that I lived in Los Angeles, California. "That's so cool." Miguel told me, I smiled a little.

As we talked, I told Miguel that my parents and I were on vacation but a truck hit our car and I had no idea how I ended up in the alley that he had found me in.

"That's not really a lie." I thought sadly, as I wondered what I was gonna do next, Miguel's Abuelita came into the room with a plate full of food for me.

"I overheard what you said and we decided that you shall stay here." Elena told me, I choked on the food so I grabbed the cup of water and drank.

"What?" I asked after drinking some water, then I realized that I had mentioned to Miguel that my parents had no siblings and my grandparents passed away.

I wanted to protest but when I saw the look Miguel was giving me about arguing with her, I decided against it. "If your family's alright with it." I replied softly.

Miguel and Elena left so I could finish eating then get some more rest but all I could think about was how I couldn't alter any of the events of the movie.

So I decided that I'll try and stay in the background and hopefully I wouldn't change anything in the movie but maybe I could go with Miguel and meet Hector.

Later that night, I finished setting up my photo of my parents and I since it was one we took before school let out for summer break and I missed them dearly.

"I promise to be good and hopefully we'll meet again." I whispered sadly, I felt tears run down my face but I had to be strong for my parents or else I'd shut down.

I then noticed that I had my castanets still which I was thankful for but I won't be able to play them again since music isn't allowed in the Rivera family so I hid them.

Once that was done, I changed into the pajamas that Rosa gave me to use until I could get some clothes of my own which I'll be getting soon then fell asleep.

This is my first story for COCO, so please be gentle and no this isn't a self-insert story, I don't own the song in this chapter, please review and no flames.

I also don't speak Spanish so I'll be using Google Translations.
