history: A school friend of mine got detention for a week after he was caught with a note that had some swear words in it. I was the one that passed it to him..  A school friend of mine got detention for a week after he was caught with a note that had some swear words in it. I was the one that passed it to him..  Oh no_comma_ did he place the blame on you_comma_ or did he just accept it and take the blame for you? 
current: He was a courageous one, and took the fall himself. Which actually made me feel even worse, but it taught me a lesson about integrity and honor.  
next: Aw, that just shows that he is a great friend. Maybe you can treat him to lunch for the rest of the week for taking the fall for you. I am sure he would really appreciate that :)
