Bakugo, Mina, and Sero sat in Mina's room with grave expressions. Three days after Kirishima's suicide attempt, 4 notes were found tucked away in his room. 4 suicide notes incase the situation arose where he'd need them quickly. Each note was written to one member of the BakuSquad. All of them apart from Kami decided to read them together.

"So... who wants to go first?" Mina held back tears. Silence.

"I guess I will..." Sero volunteered. We nodded at him in reassurance.

'Dear Sero,
If you are reading this, then I'm sorry for what I did to myself. You were always such a great friend to me. You always made me smile and I'll always be so grateful for you. I'm really sorry it had to end this way, but I couldn't take it anymore. Everything hurt so much. My past always haunted me and this is the only way I can escape it. I won't bore you with the details but essentially, I was abused the majority of my life. I've suffered with severe depression for a good portion of my life as well. I'm sorry you had to find out this way Sero. Just know that you were always a great bro. Stay manly.
Your bro,
Eijirou Kirishima'

Tears fell freely from his face as he covered his mouth. Guilt overran him. Mina looked up.

"I guess I'm next..." she stated reluctantly, biting her lip.

'Dear Mina,
I really don't know where to start with this one. First, I'm sorry. I'm sorry I wasn't strong enough like you always said I was. You've been such a good friend to me since elementary school. You got me through all the abuse going on at home. I could always count on you. You always made me smile, no matter how bad things were. Hell, you even managed to put a smile on my face even after my dad had friends over just so they could all have their way with me. No matter what happened, you were there. All the sleepless nights, all the tears, all the breakdowns. You're honestly the only reason I even made it to high school. Thank you so much Mina. I can't express how grateful I am. You were the big sister I never had. You got me through it all. I'm sorry it had to end it this way, but know, you'll always be one of my best friends.
Sincerely,
Eijirou Kirishima'

This was far too much for her. She totally broke down as she held the note tightly. Bakugo growled, realizing it was his turn.

'Dear Bakugo,
I know you're pissed at me and rightfully so. I know what I did was selfish and uncalled for. I'm really truly sorry. I couldn't hide behind fake smiles anymore. I was so tired of all the hurt. I know you'll probably be the most confused out of everyone and knowing you, you'll probably try and blame yourself. I promise this had nothing to do with you. I'm too broken to be fixed. Please know that there is nothing you could do to stop me. I know you didn't really like me all that much, but you still meant a lot to me. You kept me going since I got into UA. Thank you for everything, Bakubro. It means more than you know, but I couldn't fight my demons anymore. I'm sorry.
With love,
Eijirou Kirishima'

Everyone was a sobbing mess at this point. It was excruciating to know how much pain Kirishima was in and no one stepped up to help him. He planned on dying alone with no one. He WANTED to die alone. Bakugo wanted to slap the bastard for even thinking he didn't mean much to him. He just wanted to slap him then pull him into the tightest hug imaginable and never let him go.
