it's hard for me to give any constructive feedback. i like the run up to the white lie, the feeling you confessed because you feel guilty.
if i had to say something needed changing it would be a minor thing.
move the oops to the beginning of the line or put it i the title.
i think the enjambment adds more than a little to making it read well. the pause feel in the right place as does the follow on in the next lines where you used it.

smokes. I guess people assumed
that I would

We got drunk and almost
fell off the bed.
We did other stuff too,
things I liked because I didn't
have
to think. A month later,
I was still making up work
from that week I missed. I
"had the flu". I was "fine"
I...
lied. We smoked during
fourth hour, in that alley
behind school. I never thought
I would want to remember...
Oops.
