Carlos Mena: "Best Friend"

Oh god.

It was Monday. I was getting ready to go to school and (once again)  I hear a knock on my door. I open it and see Carlos.  He looked bothered and... numb?
We didn't say anything to each other. Not even hey or Good morning.

Me: Yo, what happened?
He shook his head and mumbled something under his breath. But I couldn't make out any words. Everything seemed so...off.
We got to school and still, nothing.
I was getting worried. I kept talking to him normally but the more I spoke the angrier he seemed to get. I figured he would atleast say something at lunch.

Lunch
Still. Nothing. Okay, thus shit is pissing me off.
Me: Carlos, look. Ion know why you're acting like this. I don't know if it's because what happened this weekend or nah but either way I'm still your friend. Best friend matter of fact. So, Imma go get some food and then we can talk bout this if you want.
I went to go get us both some food when a group of guys went up to Carlos and started messing with him. A joke lead to slap, a slap lead to a punch, and 1 punch turned into the whole group jumping Carlos. But he didn't fight back.
Me: WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING?! GET THE FUCK OFF OF HIM!
I kept yelling and punching them. Eventually they left and Carlos was left  bloody and cut up.
Me: omfg are you okay?!
Carlos: yes. I'm fine. I just got jumped, I'm dead inside, kinda numb, and just a lil bit suicidal. But trust me, I'm totally fine.
He sarcastically looked at me. Fuck. 
Please god I thought not another one
Me: why are you so suicidal all of a sudden? What happened?
Him:  it's just... (sigh) some days, dying sounds better than ever. He put his head  down as he continued to look at the floor.
I simply hugged him, knowing he didn't want me to say anything. And that's how we were for the rest of the lunch. Our last 2 periods flew by and he didn't walk me home. This time, it was the other was around. I walked him to his door and we stood there in silence. About 2 minutes passed by and he started talking
Him: Thank you for uh... walking me home... I guess.. He said scratching the back of his neck
Me: uh.. yeah no problem....  um... I should... get. Going.
Him: yeah. Um. I'll see you tommorrow...
He leaned in a gave me a big hug then kissed me on the cheek. I hugged him a little longer then made my way home. I just remember thinking, " God I hope he doesn't do anything stupid..."

3am.
Carlos's mother on the phone: Victoria? Victoria?! Oh my Lord sweetie are you awake?! She said frantically
I rubbed my eyes and yawned.
Me: uh,  yeah I am now I guess.. Why what happened?
Carlos's mother: Honey, Carlos got into a really bad car accident about 15 minutes ago (this is where she started cryin) they found him unconscious...
Oh god.
