When does death of a close love one hit you?

Am I ass for not feeling grief for someone close to me that died Friday night.

This is someone I grown up with since grammar school and I'm kinda mad at myself for not feeling grief

I’m very sorry for your loss.
Like @Frostcloud said, grief is weird, and sometimes doesn’t hit you right away; you’re in shock until it sinks in. Don’t give yourself a hard time; just because you don’t fall apart, cry, etc. doesn’t mean you didn’t love the person or aren’t grieving. Sometimes the rest comes later—often when you’re not expecting it. 🥺
