Weeks of Torture

Kirishima pov

Please return safely.

I sit in the chair next to Katsuki's bed and start whispering words of encouragement to him. Telling him that he can make it. He's strong and everyone loves him.

His parents left and moments later the squad walked in. I hear Mina's sniffles first.

"Kiri, is-is he...?"
"The doctor said he'll be fine but I'll probably be here every day until he wakes up."
"Bro, Aizawa told us to give you this. He also said not to read it so we didn't but here."

He hands me Kat's suicide letter and my knees buckle I start weeping on the floor clutching the note close to my chest. "Katsuki, Katsu I'm sorry I was blind I couldn't- couldn't help in time." I kept crying out apologies and 'please come back's' as my friends just hugged me on the floor.

"Bakugou is strong man, he'll pull through." Kaminari nodded in agreement.
"Thanks Sero, Kami. I, feel like you guys should know what he said."

I read them his words and Mina hugs me tighter, Kaminari buries himself in Sero's chest, and I look towards Kat's bed. I love you. And I will until the end of time.

Time comes for the squad to go back to the dorms, having gotten permission from Principal Nezu, Aizawa, and the hospital, I decide to stay the night. Walking back over to Katsu's bed I decide to sing to him the song that he needed to hear so much earlier.

"Please come back Katsuki. You need to know that you've always been a king."

Bakugou's Brain™️ pov.

Kirishima pov

A while later of just sitting and staring at his unconscious form I drift to an uneasy sleep.

————————————————————

"Katsuki?" The first thing I say as I wake up.
"...."
"Oh, right."

Suddenly Mina.

"Kiri! Is he better yet?"
"Aren't you supposed to be at school?"
"Nope Aizawa gave me rights to be here too. Just not over night."
"Oh, well no he's not awake yet but he will be! Soon, I hope."
"Kiri, look at me. You may think that it's your fault but you honest to god did all you could. You tried to get him help, you loved him unconditionally, you were at his side when no-one else was. It's. Not. Your. Fault."
"Thanks, Mina. I'm gonna go get breakfast from the vending machine want something?"
"I'm good, Ochako made breakfast for everyone. I forgot to bring you a plate, but this was the first time 1-A really felt united. It's just sad that these were the circumstances. Midoriya hasn't left his room to even eat."
"Tell him that Kat will wake up. He can visit any time." He has to wake up.
"Okay, stay well fed, take care of yourself you look like shit. Go get breakfast I'll be here."
