Chester is clearly reliving his past through his nightmares, but is unwilling to open up to the rest of the band. Uncomfortable and confused, he's unaware of the hurt he's bringing to himself. His heart and soul feels lost, it's up to someone to bring him back to Earth. BENNODA. Contains sensitive topics.

All alone in the world, with no one and nothing he cares for... except his music. Chester Bennington is a 17 year old struggling between going through school and progressive abuse from his father. He reverts back to music... as it's the only thing keeping him alive, when one day he sees the opportunity of a lifetime. An audition for a band. He has a chance to escape the dark life he's known, will he face his fears and make it..... or crumble?

"There once was a bittersweet man and they called him 'lemon boy'" Mike finds his way to Chester, a bittersweet boy with no friends and lots of problems. Based on the cavetown's song "lemon boy" short story//standalone

Chester has fallen for Mike, but is terrified of the way he'd react if he ever found out. Little does he know, Mike feels the same way and shares the same fear he does. Not only do they share their ironic love for one another, but there's a surprising amount of love for the two, but both in sick, twisted ways. [Collaboration between @RebeccaChazzy & @BSkyeSoldier]

Bennoda, fluffy, sickly sweet. 'The kiss itself was everything Mike had always imagined it to be, soft, unyielding, and a slow sweetness, as tasting the cotton candy between each nip was just the cherry on top for the Emcee.' **complete**

Chester Bennington has always been made fun of at school. And things just got worse when he moved to a new high school and met up with the infamous Mike Shinoda who everyone loves. His life turned into a living hell. He can't escape the pain he goes through by himself, but maybe there's someone who does care about him. Maybe.

Everyone became obsessed with the boy who they never knew until he disappeared. He seemed to vanish into thin air and rarely made contact with anyone but one phone call could completely flip Mike Shinoda's life into chaos. He becomes more obsessed than anyone and he could not get the strange boy with pale skin and dark eyes out of his head. Through a crime that had never been committed in the town's history, the boy might finally be forced to reveal himself and join back in with society to protect the innocent. [Bennoda]

Chester is dealing with past issues. Does he need help or will he make it on his own? **My first story in English. It has some grammar issues, as well as some inconsistencies, but mostly due to the theme I will not re-write it. It isn't a sample of my writing style as it is now, but it is part of my journey**

A Bennoda oneshot. I was listening to this song and I got a idea for a Bennoda oneshot, so I hope you enjoy. Written by CharlieSmiler143

Chester is admitted into a mental facility to keep him away from having suicidal tendencies. He has the ability to get rehabilitated, but chooses to stay in the facility in order to stay away from 'him', the reason why he wanted to die in the first place. Through being harassed by a hateful nurse, staying away from the guys, and being frightened of the person who hurt him, Chester's forced to try and push through.
