I stopped all kinds of contact with her for around five months. Two months ago we saw each other at a party and we talked a little. Days ago she wanted to talk and we did, she apologized and told me she was mad at me, but she misses me very much now, more than anyone else, and she asked me if I thought we could be like before... I told her we could start over, because we can't go back to the past, however, I do not want to be best friends.. So I'm not sure if I should just tell her that straight up, what can I do?

What do you want to tell her? That you don't want to be best friends with her or that you want to be more than friends?
If you want to tell her that you like her still then you will have to be ready for her to feel awkward around you or even push you away. However, you could get everything you've wanted.
Either way, its your call and you will know better than any of us how she will react.
If you just want to tell her that you don't want to be as close as you were before then I'd say go for it. If she is a true friend then she will understand how you feel and how hard it is to be so close to her and will do anything to make you feel comfortable.
Good luck :)
