I think you all need to realize that these are all just kids still.
Sensei is supposed to be the 'bigger person' and yet she's the one that has the power to potentially break 2 people's hearts just because she felt she didn't like the way Ayu decided to handle her mixed feelings about her best friend? Really?
Going out with a best friend always has that potential risk of the relationship going bad, if they break up from a fight or if one of them didn't actually have feelings for the other then it would be difficult to become friends again, or well, become as close as they were before.
Ayu was confused and didn't know what she wanted because she's young and probably never experienced love or a relationship and/or all that good stuff and probably didn't want to take the risk of destroying her relationship with her best friend if it all went terribly wrong.
They say distance makes the heart grow fonder (I think) and Ayu is probably experiencing that. Since they're best friends (and one person has more intense feelings than the other) they were probably attached at the hip - like how all dem school girls are - and so Ayu probably thought they'd always be together. It was only when they finally started doing separate things, hung out less that Ayu realized how much she liked Hii-chan.
Though in all honesty, I am pretty skeptical about whether those feelings are actually love or just mild possessive behaviour since Hii-chan has always been there.
Regardless, my point is that Ayu didn't do anything wrong, she was just unsure and did what any normal person would do, which is protect themselves and their feelings and does not deserve to be told "It was your fault". Sensei has no right when she doesn't even care about Hii-chan (seriously, what is her full name?? I looked around, am I just blind?!)
But yeah, that's my take.
Edit: I tried ranting but apparently I wasn't able to match the colossal size of Purple Library Guy's comment xD
