Zobeida De Jesus was the 20-year-old sister of Zabdiel, a member of CNCO. She was by no means riding her brother's coattails, already a successful actress in a tv show called 'Shadowhunters'. This firey, headstrong, Latina moves to Ecuador with the...
Dropping his bags at the front door, a cheerful grin stretched across his face. Zabdiel opened his arms just in time for his little sister to jump into, swinging them around in a circle. He was no longer mad at her or Christopher, he simply needed some time to cool off. Also, time to realize that he was being a bit of an asshole.
"I missed you, pequeña!" Zabdiel confessed, crushing his much smaller sibling in their embrace. "How was Loja?" He kept his award-winning smile on, letting his sister know he was done acting like a prick. "It looked fun in your pictures," Zoe sighed happily, leading them into the living room with his bags.
"It was amazing, Zab. They were all so wonderful to me," Zoe gushed, eyes flitting to Christopher as he walked through the front door. He'd gone to pick everyone up at the airport while she cooked them dinner. "I could see myself living there," Christopher caught the end of their conversation, making him grin widely. Shooting her a wink, he lifted his hand in the air to show her the Chipotle he'd picked up on the way home. "Gracias, Ca- Christopher." She changed names mid-sentence, praying to God her brother wouldn't notice.
He didn't.
Christopher's eyes had widened for a split second, shaking it off when Zabdiel didn't say anything. "Uh, your burrito and cola." He handed them to Zoe, her brother already engrossed in his cell phone. Zoe's face fell for a fraction of a second, Christopher catching it with a frown of his own. "Zabdiel, man. Didn't we just drop off Madison?" Christopher poked him in a joking manner, hidden malice to his words. Zabdiel rolled his eyes, playfully punching Christopher's bicep on his way upstairs.
"I'm gonna take this to eat at the table," Standing up from her seat, Zoe tried to put up a false front of being okay. He, of course, saw straight through it. Christopher followed her into the kitchen until he was sure Zabdiel wasn't around. Gripping her elbow, he spun her in a half-circle and tugged her into his embrace. Zoe sank against him, eyes falling closed under the intoxication of his sandalwood scent. "Thank you," He hummed in confusion, wondering what she would be thanking him for. "For being here when I need you,"
"Get used to it, Amor. It's not gonna change," He murmured against her forehead, pulling out a chair for her to sit in. Zoe flashed him a minuscule smile, sitting down in the offered seat. "I got some queso to share," Christopher sat a basket of chips and dip in front of them, taking his own burrito from the bag. A real but faint smile crossed her lips, reaching beside her to quickly squeeze his hand. "Eat before it gets cold,"
Zoe playfully rolled her eyes but followed his instructions nonetheless. "Gracias, mi Vida." She whispered, taking a very unladylike bite of her food. He chuckled, going back to eating. "I was thinking that I need to get my own car," Zoe added into the conversation, taking a chip from between them. Christopher flicked his eyebrows up, genuinely interested in what she has to say. "I'll need a way to get around when you guys are on tour,"
Christopher frowned, sitting his burrito down. "First of all, you can drive my truck. What's mine is yours," Zoe melted, knowing just how much he loved his truck. "Second of all, what makes you think that you won't be coming with?" She dropped her jaw, having not considered the possibility that she might be traveling around the world with the band. He grinned at her surprised state, brushing back a strand of her hair. "Surprise?"
She giggled, throwing her arms around his neck. "Really?" He nodded, pecking her on the cheek. "That sounds amazing. You can meet everyone when we go to LA!" Zoe jumped up from her chair, searching for her phone. Christopher reached over and tapped the back of her pants, motioning that that's where her device was. "Oh," She muttered, pulling it out of her pocket and searching for her Shadowhunter group chat. "Now you get to meet my family," Zoe gushed, referring to her many castmates. Apart from David, obviously.
"I'd love to," He smiled, knowing how important they were to her. She'd spent the better half of a decade with them, every minute of every day. "If they're important to you than they're important to me." Christopher pinched her cheek, chuckling when she slapped his hand away from her face. "Maybe we could even have you open for us, hmm?" Zoe's eyes lit up with excitement, refraining from pouncing on him.
"Are you serious?" Tears pricked the back of her eyes, covering her mouth with one hand. "Christopher," She exhaled sharply, once again launching herself into his arms. His laughter vibrated through her, pure joy radiating in waves. "You know that you don't have to do this, right?" Zoe reassured him, pulling away after a few seconds. "I don't want you to feel like I won't be okay otherwise,"
Christopher clicked his tongue in disapproval, squeezing her hand. "Nonsense, Princesa. You've earned it," Standing up from his seat, he once again towered over her. She beamed up at him, feeling as though she was accomplishing something. "You're so talented. Not just in acting but in performing," He stopped speaking for a split second before continuing. "The girls even wanted me to ask about having you join Little Mix as an honorary member." Zoe froze, Christopher slowly grinning as she backed away.
"I GOTTA CALL JADE!"
"She's upstairs,"
"I GOTTA AMBUSH JADE!"
"That's my girl,"
