Chapter 3 : Sebastian Wild

Far away from Zara’s home, the whole stadium screamed shaking everyone. The people jumped and started singing songs together with their idols. The magic is in the air with captured all the souls.

“Rock it everybody”

Sebastian Wild shouted and whole stadium started screaming loud. Lit The World(LTW) is having a concert for two days from five to eight in the evening where Zara is living but it’s a bit far to her home.

While dancing Sebastian spotted an old lady who is shouting his name in the crowd near the stage. When she saw him staring at her, she got excited and blew him kisses in the air.

Sebastian smiled and jumped from the stage to the ground.

“Sebasty”

Everyone shouted out loud, Sebasty is his nickname from fans and his bandmates. Without waiting for bodyguards he ran to the old lady climbing the railings. Security guards and his bodyguards almost had a heart attack to see him run to the fans. They tried to stop him but he was faster.

His band mates Fredrick Smith, George Grover and Simon Reynolds sighed seeing Sebastian. Well, he is born to break the rules but they didn’t stop singing and Simon sang Sebastian’s part.

When the old lady saw Sebastian in front of her she cried hugging him and thanked him for doing this for her. All fans surrounded him taking selfies and videos. Sebastian posed to all cameras grinning widely but their happiness didn’t last for long as his bodyguards took him away.

After performing for another hour they took their leave saying farewell to their fans. They all retreated to their respective rooms when they heard an angry voice scolding Sebastian

“You are going to meet Mr. Gibbs”

Diana Burch, LTW manger spoke glaring at Sebastian who is wiping his sweat after the concert.

Everyone looked at him with pity. Spark Gibbs is their chairman who is very strict with the rules. He warned them not to cross the limits many times but Sebastian never took his words into his mind, he got scolded and grounded for that a lot.

This is not the first time Sebastian ran to his fans during concerts but this time Mr. Gibbs strictly warned him not to repeat. It seems Sebastian is going to have a tough night a head because Mr. Gibbs is in their country which means he flew right after hearing the news from Ms. Burch.

Sebastian cursed before changing his clothes to follow Ms. Burch put to meet his strong headed chairman.

“Don’t take his words to heart”

Frederick held his shoulder and spoke softly when he saw Sebastian coming out from dressing room. They all hugged him before sending him to lion’s den.

“Where is he?”

Sebastian asked as soon as got into the car

“He is waiting for you in a restaurant”

Ms. Burch spoke indifferently from front passenger seat. Sebastian closed his eyes leaning on the back seat. He is getting ready himself for the taunts from Mr. Gibbs.

“You really pissed him this time”

Ms. Burch softened her tone looking at tired Sebastian from the mirror. She is forty five years old and very professional with her job. She treats all the four members very well but she looks cold because they will try to manipulate her easily.

“I just want to give that old lady a memory”

Sighing he continued to sleep. He is really tired of all this shit. He wished to fly away to a place where no one can recognize him.

“But that’s very dangerous Sebasty”

Diana didn’t want to talk anymore as it only complicate his emotions. She got down when they reached her hotel because it’s late and she needs to take rest.

Sebastian stayed silent as he knew it’s waste of his time to convince them. They travelled for two hours to reach the restaurant because Mr. Gibbs don’t want anyone to know about this meeting so he chose that place.

Almost six bodyguards who were dressed casually including Sebastian’s personal manager, Lucien entered the small restaurant. They don’t want to alert the customers so they took different seats far from them and Sebastian sat opposite Mr. Gibbs who sat elegantly reading a book.

This restaurant had private seating sections which gave it a classy look. Mr. Gibbs chose a place at the corner which have two sitter dining tables in a row with partitions between tables.

Sebastian poured himself a glass of water and gulped it down as he didn’t have anything for five hours while Lucien sat behind Sebastian with his back to him in another section.

“I know I broke your rule but I am not guilty”

Sebastian spoke with arrogance as soon as he drank water. Mr. Gibbs closed the book and removed his glasses glaring at the boy who is not admitting his mistakes

“You are not performing tomorrow” said Mr. Gibbs.

He knows Sebastian's weakness. Sebastian loves to interact with his fans the most. He always wants to have concerts all over the world. Grounding him and scolding him will not make him suffer so Spark Gibbs chose this way.

Sebastian widened his eyes hearing his words

“No way”

He clenched his fists his hand on the table. Spark smirked and straightened his collar.

“You should've obeyed the rules”.

“She is an old lady, what’s wrong with giving her a best memory”

Sebastian tried to reason with him controlling his anger.

“If you want to give memories to all your fans, you will have to spend your life time”

“What will you say to the media?”

The media will definitely ask the agency about him if they didn’t see him perform.

“I can take care of that just stay indoors”

Mr. Gibbs stood up and warned Sebastian and left the place with his men. Sebastian sat there dispirited. He wants to shout out loud and scream his worries away but he can’t.

“Let’s go”

Lucien stood up and walked to Sebastian but he shook his head.

“Can we stay here some more time?”

Lucien nodded his head texting the bodyguards to stay ten more minutes standing beside Sebastian.

Sebastian got inspired watching pop stars singing and dancing on the television when he was twelve years old. He watched their videos and attended many concerts but his parents didn’t want him to be an idol as they have their own business which is an automobile company, Wild Motors.

They wanted him to take over the company because his elder brother, Nicholas Wild started his own gymnastics school. His brother chose his path and their parents started rubbing their interests on him.

He can’t ignore his parents so he studied hard to be part in the company but he never stopped dancing and singing, he even took special classes for that. His parents didn’t want to force him into something he didn’t want so they sent him for the auditions.

After failing many times he finally joined Gibbs Music which is famous agency. They brought up many bands and solo artists. He was so surprised to work with them. The agency is originally under Mr. Gibbs father-in-law who is so kind and never forces his idols.

He never mistreats the idols and even allowed them to date but privately with their consent. He gets along well with all the idols in his agency but Mr. Gibbs is very strong headed person who makes many rules. The original name of Gibbs Music is Carter entertainment but Mr. Gibbs changed it after becoming the sole head of the agency.

He took over the agency after marrying his daughter and started torturing all the idols with his damn rules and Sebastian is so fed up with him. Even the President Mr. Carter can’t do anything as Mr. Gibbs is his Son-in-law. He joined this agency when he was fourteen with his three other band mates. They trained for two years before debuting.

They got more popularity with each passing year. He is happy with his current life but when it comes to Mr. Gibbs rules he easily gets annoyed. He is happy to be an idol but from the underwear brand to the goggles he use should be decided by their agency.

He sometimes feel suffocating with all their compelling. He can’t meet his parents as he was always busy with live shows, concerts, modelling, shoots and when he gets free time he would deal with his company.

He badly needs an escape from all this but he chose this path, so he should endure it. Sebastian covered his head with the hoodie and face with the mask so it’s hard to recognize him. Lucien stood beside Sebastian without uttering a word.

Lucien is thirty seven years old who is assigned to be Sebastian’s manager from the beginning. He likes Sebastian and treats him like his little brother. He helps Sebastian to sneak out at midnights to have fast foods because agency wouldn’t allow him to eat them.

He even helped Sebastian to book hotel rooms at late nights to satisfy his desires. Come on! Sebastian is a man after all, he needed to quench his thirst from time to time to relieve his stress.

Lucien has lot of contacts regarding girls who he can book for a night. Lucien is married and have two kids who are in primary school. He was not a womanizer and only wanted to help Sebastian.

Sebastian never dated anyone but spent lot of nights with girls in hotel rooms. He never let’s them see his face because he didn’t want to cause trouble for his agency and band mates. If they knew about his dirty secrets, they would kill him.

Their agency never forbid him to date. Fredrick is dating his third girlfriend Lillian Sanford and George is dating his first girlfriend Stella Miller. Simon changes his girlfriends like clothes as he is not stable in relationships.

Sebastian never met his match and honestly he is not interested in dating. Their fans wholeheartedly supported their partners, they never judged their girlfriend backgrounds. Lillian is from a middle class family and she works as a designer in a well-known company.

They met her at a fashion show organised by their company an year ago. Fredrick fell for her designs instantly and they started dating from then. George is in love with a girl in his high school and he is still in relationship with her after so many years.

He never voiced out his stress to his parents he chose this path and he don’t want to hear their lectures. His brother is happy with his own family so, he didn’t want to disturb his peaceful life with his worries.

Sebastian only has Lucien to share his worries. They both hang out a lot together in the clubs many nights secretly.

“Want to go out”

Lucien asked trying to ease his mood but Sebastian shook his head. He just wants to be alone now.

When he is silently cursing his fucked up life he heard a squeal and raised his head to see a small figure jumping near the counter. He furrowed his eye brows because of the disturbance. He shook his head looking at her clumsy figure and sighed before lowering his head.

After sometime he felt a presence behind him and he raised his head smelling the sweet smell in the air. He turned around and looked over the partition to see the same girl who he saw earlier near the counter sitting behind him with her back.

He didn’t find anything fishy and felt it’s normal. He turned around and leaned back closing his eyes. Bodyguards are having their dinner and didn’t pay much attention to the surroundings.

But when they saw a girl approaching Sebastian. They all turned their attention towards her. She just sat their watching the menu for a long time till the bodyguards let their guard down. The bodyguards thought she’s just a customer.

If they made a move, Sebastian will get exposed. Sebastian heard a noise beside him, he turned to his right side and saw nothing but a wall.

He frowned when he heard a tapping sound on the partition behind him and saw a note sticking out from the side of the partition, he curiously took the note and opened it to see what’s in it which brought smile to his face instantly.
