His head was bleeding terrable and I want to get my friend out of trouble because he already has like 15 more days in detention!!

STOP right there! Do not, i repeat, do NOT lie about this. If you get caught lying that he was with you, you will get suspended as well. I know that he is your friend and that you want the best for him and want to help him, but he hit the guy, he should take the punishment. Do not let him take you down with him. Lying could get you into even WORSE trouble then the initial accident. Don't get into it. Let him take the punishment for what he did.

Honestly, you're only hurting your friend more by trying to get him out of trouble by lying. You're ruining your own credibility by making up stories about it as well. If your friend really did do what he supposedly did, he should get punished for it. Well, if he did it on purpose he should get punished for it. Just because some girls decided to be tattletails isn't really any reason for dishonesty... I guarantee it if you were older than you are now, you'd regret it if your lie got found out. In my own defense, I don't think those girls had any right to go and nark on anyone just because they could. There's something to be said for minding one's own business.

Accidents happen but it take maturity to own up to it and face the consequences. It would be best if you encourage your friend to admit it was his fault and ask about the injured person. Head injuries can be serious and you can be a good friend if you say please call him or go by his house and see if he's okay, if you're scared, I'll come with you. May sound corny, but it's the right thing to do and I think you'll both feel better if you know it was handled honestly. Imagine if it was yourself or your friend who got hurt and what you wish the perpetrator had done. Good luck.

The school cannot say that his actions were completely intentional and he did it unpurpose. I think the best thing is to tell the truth, but if you already lied it's going to rise questions why you lied and why you just didn't say it was an accident in the first place.

Honesty is the best policy. It could get worse if you just make up lies about it, then you all could be in trouble.
