Chapter Two: Getting to Know More
xoxoxo
"Amy Christine Dumas and Allen Lloyd Jones, you guys are so dead!"
The pair, who was comfortably chatting with each other near the fireplace, turned to face the annoyed blonde Canadian. "What?" Allen asked, arching an eyebrow at him.
"I know that you guys know that you can help yourselves with the food every time ya'll are here but did you two have to finish the ice cream?" Jason pouted, causing Jeff to gag on the soda he was drinking. "That was my favorite flavor, in case ya'll forget."
"We know that. We can't resist our craving for ice cream though." Amy hugged a cushion close to her. "Besides, there was only a little left."
The blonde man frowned. "But you could've left some for me."
Allen rolled his eyes at him. "You could always buy again, you immature weirdo. The grocery is just so near."
"At least the ice cream had another purpose aside from going straight to your stomach, honey." Trish smirked. Her boyfriend made a face at her. "It was Ames and Alien's comfort food."
"Quit it with the nickname already." Allen rolled his eyes once again.
Chris grinned from his place on the carpet. "It sounds cute though, not to mention funny. You gotta admit that. Besides, better get use to the nickname since we'll be using it from now on."
"You guys better buy ice cream since you two finished it." Jason folded his arms over his chest.
Tyson shot him an amused look. "You know, you're acting pretty immature over ice cream." He smirked. "Have you ever thought that there's more to life than ice cream?"
Amy shook her head as she stood up, pulling Allen along with her. "If it makes you feel better and if it makes you shut your mouth, fine. We'll buy the damn ice cream right now."
"Buy a lot already." Jeff said as he and Terry entered the house. "I'm in the mood to eat some ice cream too, Ames."
"When it comes to Jeff, it only means that you guys have to buy a lot of ice cream." Terry flopped himself on a couch, ignoring a mock glare that the rainbow haired man was sending him. "You know it's true, Jeffro." Both Amy and Allen just shook their heads before the redhead took her wallet out of her purse. They soon left the house, ignoring the amused looks on their faces… Or maybe it was because neither of them really noticed it. They were in their own little world again as they exited the house.
Lisa waited until Allen's car left the driveway before she spoke. "Now that they're gone, we can have our little chat."
"That's such a Heidi Klum thing to say." The blonde woman sat on the place that Amy previously occupied. She was obviously referring to the model and the reality show she was hosting. "I thought I was the only one who noticed it. Guess I was wrong."
"It's so damn obvious. Besides, it's not like they could hide it from us." Jeff pointed out, catching a bag of chips from Chris while he spoke. "They're getting closer and closer."
"Yeah." Jason's blue eyes fell on the dancing flames in the fireplace. "They always have their little world ever since they met. They always talk. Almost everywhere Amy goes; Al is there and vice versa."
Terry gestured to himself, Jeff and Tyson. "We saw them talking earlier. Amy told him about Matt and he told her about that ex-girlfriend of his. It surprises me how easily and how soon she trusted him." Then, he sent his friends a warning look. "But we won't do anything, okay? No more plans of how to bring them closer. They won't appreciate it and ya'll know it."
This time around, it was Trish who pouted. "Now where's the fun in that? It won't hurt to help."
"If you really wanna do something? Do it on your own." Chris snorted. "I don't want to get dragged along in any of your grand plans anymore."
"Unless you have a death wish, I suggest you leave the two of them alone." Tyson shook his head. "We all know how Ames can get when you stick your noses into her business… And I think I know Allen well enough to say he won't like it either."
xoxoxo
"What flavors do you think should we get?" Allen looked at the different ice cream containers in front of him.
"A lot of vanilla ice cream, definitely." Amy replied. "And that means we have to get a lot of toppings."
He placed a gallon of the vanilla ice cream in the shopping cart. "We have to get some Ben and Jerry's."
"Yeah." The redhead agreed, getting a cookie dough flavor of the mentioned ice cream brand, along with some mint chocolate chip ice cream. "This is my favorite."
"Really?" Allen began to push the cart to where the marshmallows, chocolate chips, chocolate syrup and other ice cream toppings were after they were done getting enough ice cream… Enough meaning enough for nine people with very big appetites.
She placed a bag of chocolate chips in the cart. "I know this might not be the right time and place to ask this but I'm really curious… We never talked about this since the time we were in the garden…"
"Okay, shoot."
"How did you find out that your ex-girlfriend was cheating?"
"A friend of mine actually saw her enter this hotel with some guy and he called me about it. I went straight to the hotel and I managed to force the lady at the front desk to give me a spare keycard to her room. I went there and saw everything…" He drifted into silence and Amy noticed the change in his mood.
Amy regretted asking the question. "I'm… I'm sorry about that. I shouldn't have asked…"
The brown haired man shook his head. "Nah, it's okay. I'm more comfortable talking about it now than before. I've moved on but it doesn't mean I don't have any 'what ifs' about it."
The redhead let out an inaudible sigh of relief before she nodded in understanding as they headed for the counted. They were ready to pay and leave. "How about you? How did you find out Matt was with someone else?" He asked.
She stiffened a little at the question but decided to answer anyways. "He said it straight to my face…" Amy said almost bitterly. "He fell in love with this girl. I think her name's Ashley Massaro… I don't know how he met her and what happened. I really don't give a damn anymore."
Allen frowned. "Love hurts when you fall in love with a person you're not meant to be with."
"Hell, yeah." She sighed. "Sometimes I wonder if I'll ever meet that guy I'm meant to be with."
He fell silent and thought about what the redhead had said. When will the right girl for him come? When will she come into his life? Or is she already in his life? He snapped out of his thoughts when they had to pay for their groceries already. Allen took out his wallet and got some cash, ready to pay, but Amy insisted that she should pay for some of it. The two then both paid for the items before they left; not wanting the ice cream to melt.

Everyone waiting in Jason's house thought that the pair had returned when they heard a car parking in front of the house but instead of a redheaded woman and a brown haired man who walked into the house, it was Dawn Marie Psaltis.
"Dawn!" Trish squealed as she and Lisa ran to greet the brunette. "When did you get back from Italy?"
"Just this morning." She replied, hugging her friends. "I asked Jeffro where you guys where and he said all of you are here."
Tyson arched an eyebrow. "Why didn't you tell us she was coming?"
"Um… Surprise?" Green eyes rolled. "Obviously."
Terry shook his head at the two, greeting Dawn with a hug of his own. "How's the business?"
"It's doing well." Dawn received hugs from Chris, Jason, Tyson and Jeff before she continued. "But I never knew fashion designing was this hard when I was dreaming about it."
"This is what you call reality." Chris chuckled. "Things are never hard in daydreams."
The brunette sent him a look that clearly said 'duh'. "I thought Ames and Allen are here?"
"They went to buy ice cream." Jason passed the bag of chips her. "Since they finished all of my ice cream here."
Dawn shot Jeff and Chris an amused look. "I was actually expecting that the two of you were the ones who finished it." She turned her attention back to Jason. "How is she?"
"She's still depressed over the Matt thing. Who wouldn't be?" Jeff was about to tell her about Amy and Allen being close but Terry elbowed him somewhat sharply. "What?"
"The last thing I want to happen is for Dawn to start scheming." Terry muttered loud enough for only Jeff to hear. "So shut up…"
"If ever I see Matt in the future, I'll make him pay for hurting Ames this way… again." Dawn frowned, silently planning what to do to the older Hardy when the time comes. "Do you guys wanna go to a bar tomorrow? I want her to have fun."
Tyson looked a bit hesitant about the idea. "She won't come with us. She rarely did."
"She has to live normally again," said Trish. She was always with Dawn in her ideas and plans. "She needs to go out and have fun… Like before"
"Besides, Allen can force her to come with us." Chris smirked. Terry let out a sigh, knowing what will happen next.
Dawn raised an eyebrow in interest. "Lemme guess… She and Allen are getting along very, very well."
"I heard my name." Allen said as he and Amy entered the house.
"Yay! Ice cream's here!" Jeff exclaimed, standing up from his seat to grab the ice cream and the toppings from him.
Amy shook her head at the rainbow haired man. "Careful, Jeffro."
"Don't finish the ice cream, you jackass!" Chris yelled, rushing towards the kitchen.
Jason sighed. "They act as if they'll run out of ice cream."
"The same could be said for you." Hazel eyes fell on a certain brunette she hadn't seen for quite some time. "Dawn…?"
"Yes, it's me." Dawn grabbed her friend by the hand. "You have a lot of things to tell me."
Amy and Allen exchanged a look. Jason then following Chris and Jeff to the kitchen before they could finish the ice cream he demanded Amu and Allen to buy. At that point, the pair decided to forget about their heartaches and have fun with their friends instead.
There is more to life than falling in love and getting heartbroken.
