General POV

After Amy's embarrassing moment she ran home and cried until tears couldn't fall again.

Being in a friendship takes hard work. You have to love them like family.  You have to be there for each other even when it's tough.
So when you know what it is or how it feels to be hurt by friends, then you know how the feeling of your heart being crushed feels like.

Amy heard soft knocks on her front door.  She ran down hoping it wasn't Jonah.
That's, why she was relieved when she saw, it was her new, friend,  Kyle.  She smiled at the sight in front of her it was Kyle with a red rose and a tub of her favourite ice cream.

"Hi amy,  I thought you could use a friend and also some ice cream," he commented while lifting the tub of ice cream in front of her,  "it's cookies and creme. "

"Thank you Kyle and thanks, for offering yourself as being that friend. " she told him as she moved aside to let him in

"How did you know cookies and creme was my favourite? " Amy  asked while raising a brow suspiciously.

Kyle shrugged shylyvavoiding due contact and mumbled his, answer,  " James...told me. "

"James... When... Why" she asked.

"I know you've had a tough day and I know you and James are like brother and sister so I called him today and asked him what I should do to cheer you up. He told me you love Calla Lillie's but I didn't see any so I bought you a rose instead and, he said ice cream makes everyone happy......  So.......  Was he right...  Did I cheer you up. " Kyle said and asked shyly.

Amy did her best to not allow tears to fall again so instead she leaned over to Kyle  and hugged him tightly and planted a soft kiss on his cheek.

"Thank you Kyle. "

At first Kyle was nervous but after he relaxed he  wrapped his arms around her waist.  Hugging her tightly.

"I knew my suspicions were right.. You..  You like him don't you....  You. " This time it wasn't Kyle nor amy who spoke it was a figure, behind them and when they turned they noticed that it was none other than...  JONAH

"Jonah..  You, "she cried out as, she, separated quickly from Kyle's hold and when she looked at Jonah she could see the tears in his eyes.

"No Amy I don't want to hear it because apparently anyone who offers a helping hand you just go along with the flow.  ARE YOU SO DESPERATE?  I always knew, you'd do anything for a friend Amy..... " Jonah blurted until a crashing noise which was a, slap to his cheek stopped him.

He stood bewildered as to what just happens until Amy spoke up.
"Jonah shut up,  how dare you!...... Who are you? Your not the sweet  sensitive Jonah i met. What did I do to deserve your treatment.  And this, " she pointed between her and Kyle, "we are JUST friends but even if we were more than friends I  don't see how you should care.  You never liked me......  So what are you trying to prove. "

Jonah was lost for words.  He did what he feared most it was breaking Amy's heart.  He destroyed everything before it could have even been built.  But he was still angry how could Amy do that. He stormed out of the house without even looking back.

Amy felt frustrated why would Jonah say something like that to her.  Did Jonah like her is that why he got so angry?
Anyway it didn't matter now she wanted nothing to do with Jonah.

"Amy I am sorry this is my fault.  I shouldn't have..... " Kyle finally spoke after a long silent moment.  Until Amy interrupted him.

"No Kyle  this,is,not your fault.  Jonah needs, to figure out his emotions and stop blaming others for his, life."
