Working for Mr. Shinoda by EstieAckerman

This is a follow up on Working for Mr. Bennington. Things don't always go according to what we plan. Sometimes the unexpected things happens. Fanfiction. Only a made up story.

Mike Shinoda is making a name for himself. He's not just part of Linkin Park anymore, he's a solo artist. While he's experimenting with the rap scene, Chester Bennington passes the time on his own solo material, calling it Dead by Sunrise. Neither of them realize how much they miss Linkin Park - or each other - until Mike's rap persona starts to get in the way of their relationship and the making of what eventually becomes Minutes to Midnight. Bennoda. [Fort Minor/Linkin Park/Dead by Sunrise era] (A collaboration between lpfan503 and Penelope_Ink)

Mike is attacked and the future seems unsure. (Trigger warning)

Chester is gone. He really is gone and Mike falls apart and the others are forced to pick up the pieces. [no pairing, sad, angsty]

Mike is feeling lost when his whole world is crashing down. He is pining over Chester and makes the mistake he shouldn't have had made. But then it isn't the end he thinks it is...

A meet and greet changes everything for Mike Shinoda.

Chester Bennington, 21, is finally out of the institution where he stayed most of his life. The outside world is a scary place for the anxious young man, but soon enough, he finds someone he can be friends with, or at least he thinks so. Will Mike be able to bring Chester out of his shell?

Everything in Between by aviolentreaction

Mike doesn't know what to do anymore. When he decides to take a big step towards something horrible, somebody stops him from making the same mistake he made. Maybe this person can change his entire life.

Working for Mr. Bennington by EstieAckerman

I dropped out of college and was looking for a job that I desperately needed. I opened the newspaper and saw an add for an assistant job for Mr. Chester Bennington. I applied and Mike called me for an interview. What will it be like to work for the guy I've been dreaming about all my life? Being a big fan of Linkin Park and a big fan of Chester Bennington. My dream of always meeting him has finally come true. DOES CONTAIN SEXUAL AND MATURE THEMES! #RIP Chester I will always love you and you will always be remembered.
