### Hayden Romero

Amy at first glance seems incredibly close with her brother when he first starts at the University, however, like a lot of people throughout the series, Hayden constantly neglected Amy as she was a part of the Kappa Phi sorority he had no idea what was going on in Amy's life behind closed doors. Despite defending his honor constantly, Amy shuts Hayden out for most of The Third Year and chooses not to let him know what is happening in her life.

When Amy shoots up the university, Hayden grows depressed with the idea that he could've done more to be there for his sister and deeply mourns her throughout the rest of *The Third Year*, it is Amy's death that teaches him to wiggle out of his Jock life and become a better and more dedicated friend.

### Nathan Rivers

Nathan seems more of a project of flirtation to Amy than just someone she is interested in, throughout *The First Year*, Amy is mostly seen flirting with Nathan and due to Ava taking a step back from Nathan on occasion Nathan chooses to accept and even at points return her flirtations. It isn't until Nathan becomes in a relationship with Ava that he officially decides to put Amy in the friendzone, unfortunately, Amy doesn't take this well.

### Charlotte Cosby

Despite being a part of Kappa Phi Sorority together, Amy can't actually stand Charlotte and all her bitchy ways. In Chapter 17 of *The First Year* Amy mentions how frustrated she is that Charlotte is taking advantage of her brother and prefers it if he were with Casey. After the events of The Second Year unfold, aside from Charlotte helping her and the rest of the sorority sisters out Amy still could not forgive Charlotte for the events of *The First Year* and still continued to hold a grudge against her. After Amy shoots herself, Charlotte wishes that she could've been a better person and/or friend to Amy.

### Casey Stephens

In *The First Year*, Amy is incredibly kind to Casey and respects her as a person the same goes for Casey herself. She wishes that Casey and her brother could've gotten together despite Charlotte stealing him away in Chapter 7. However, the friendly situation between Casey and Amy soon dies down as the events of *The Second Year* unfold and it is revealed to Amy that Casey chose to be with Izzy rather than her brother. Amy's kindness to Casey quickly turns into anger for hurting her brother and while barging in on a dinner the gang was supposed to be having in *The Third Year*, Amy lashes out at Casey and picks her apart in every single way because of the pain Casey inflicted on her brother when she left him. However, these emotions were only acted out because Amy's mental state decreased more and more.
