I've always known that New York was the dream place to be in winter, especially for Christmas and New Years, but actually being here and not watching it on a screen was surreal. This morning, they had a bunch of interviews, so we all tagged along. I loved seeing first hand how supportive their families were during this trip, even if it's only been a day. Oh, and Erick's mom came, so now there were five of us tagging along with the guys and their team.
"Ahora, tenemos todo el día para hacer lo que queramos."
Zabdiel came up behind me and threw his arms across both mine and Noemi's shoulders. "Quiero comer y dormir."
"Siempre quieres hacer eso." I commented. At this point, everyone was talking over each other and trying to plan out what to do for the next few hours because the guys still needed to get some type of rest before performing at midnight. "Todavía es temprano."
Noemi nodded her head and looked up to Zabdiel. "Sí, puedes dormir más tarde. Pero ahora, tengo hambre."
"So eat and then hangout at the hotel?"
"Sí."

"Zabdiel, stop moving. You're messing up the picture."
"Tengo un picor."
"Tu picor puede esperar."
I pulled the phone back to look at the pictures then crawled across the bed to show them to Noemi and Zabdiel. "Mira, se ven tan lindos."
"Te ves como una muñeca." Noemi commented as she pointed at Zabdiel's face in the picture.
"Chicos, vámonos! Tienen entrevistas antes de su representación."
"Tenemos la primera fila?"
I nodded my head and linked arms with Noemi and Zabdiel as everyone tried getting out of the room we were hibernating in. "Are you excited?" I asked Zabdiel, shaking his arm around as we waited for the elevator.
Zabdiel nodded, but he had a nervous smile on his face. "I just don't want to fall on TV."
"You won't fall, you'll do great."
The group was split up because we all couldn't fit in one elevator, but on the ride down, I felt Noemi playing with the ends of my hair. "Nessa, tienes mucho pelo."
"Mamá, no es una Barbie."
Noemi smacked her lips and continued twirling the ends of my hair as she waved Zabdiel off. "Yo sé pero se ve como una."

"Mi gente, uno minuto más!" Clara yelled, pointing over to the countdown as all the music stopped.
The guys came over after their performance a while ago, which was amazing even though Joel slipped. Ever since, Zabdiel has been standing right behind me with his arm wrapped around my shoulders because I "look cold". I'm not, but I wasn't going to protest against the affection.
I felt Zabdiel lean down and heard him ask me, "So what do you think about New York?"
So he wouldn't have to struggle to hear me over everyone talking, I turned my head but his was still right beside mine. "Aquí me encanta mucho. And I wanna come back."
"I'll bring you every time I come here, te lo prometo."
"Zabdi, está bien. I can buy my own ticket. You don't have to pay all the time."
He just shrugged his shoulders and rested his head against mine as we watched the countdown. "Mi mamá te ama. Estoy un poquito celoso."
"No estés celoso. I'm just better than you."
Zabdiel laughed, but we both stayed quiet as the countdown hit 30 seconds. "Tengo una pregunta para ti." I nodded my head and looked up at him because he wasn't hunched over anymore. "Nos conocimos hace dos meses, pero ahora quiero ser más que amigos. So, quieres ser mi novia?"
Everyone was yelling out numbers and counting down the seconds to midnight, but it was all blocked out as I gazed up at Zabdiel. I probably looked stupid with the big smile on my face, but I couldn't help it. "Sí. Quiero ser tu novia."
"Tres, dos, uno!"
Confetti started popping and fireworks went off, but rather than looking at them, Zabdiel and I were distracted by each other. "Tus labios son muy suaves."
I started giggling and let my hands slide off of his neck, but Zabdiel basically chased me and pulled me back in, restarting the kiss all over again. "Feliz Año Nuevo, tortolitos!" Erick cheered, jumping on both Zabdiel and I, which was quickly followed by the rest of the guys.
"Ahora estás saliendo?"
Zabdiel shook his head at his mom and went over to hug her now that it was 2020. "Sí, mamá. Ahora, ella es mi novia."
Noemi started clapping and gave Zabdiel a big hug before waving me over to join them. "Ella me gusta."
"Él sabe. Zabdiel dijo que estaba celoso."
"No, esos son mentiras."
took his ass long enough 🥺 now ima go cry in single for the rest of the night
