My love story

How I feel when I think of her warm and fuzzy, hot and cold, all at the same time. I think of her fair face, her hard, piercing eyes and dark hair, her soft gentle hand and her appealing smile that light up my world. The effect she has on me is wonderful, yet at times it is confusing and terrifying. I think of her when I wake up in the morning, and when I fall asleep at dawn. I ached for her all the time because with her I feel special.
I met light back in high school when I was bored and lonely. She was my junior, very intelligent promising young girl. Her experience jolted me out of my stupor. From the first time we met I knew we had something in common, like minds we often share thoughts ideas together, we hang out most of the during leisure time.
Though I haven't formally asked her out, because I feel shy and also scared of being in the friend zone. She tells me am like a brother she never had. I want more out of our friendship but I'm not confident enough to profess my feelings to her.
The question is what step do I take next I need your advice steemians
Thanks for your time
