Does she like me? I just want to see what other people think of my situation?

First off, i really like her. She is best friends with one of my best friends, we have met a couple of times as a group but over the past few months her and i have been talking on facebook without fail 2-3 times a week, and 95% of conversations start with her messaging me. Recently, i had to pick something up that i lent to her from her house (where i had never been before) and she suggested that we study for an exam that we both have coming up. We had a lot of fun with plenty of laughing and joking around, pretty comfortable with each other for the first time alone together. Our break from study was a walk to a play ground and we just lay on the slide in the sun next to each other.. listening to some music. And when it was time to leave and my bus came.. i said goodbye and thanks for everything and she asked "arent you gonna give me a hug?".. i did, and it wasnt awkward whatsoever. This study 'date' was the first time i had been with her alone. My friend has told me that she has said she really likes talking to me. She laughs at what i say A LOT. She has also worked really hard on getting me to go on schoolies (end of year 12 celebration) her, with my friend and one of her friends.. saying "NOOOO" when i said i may not be able to go..

This all may sound really stupid, and like this guy is so desperate.. but i really like her and would really appreciate any opinions..

Awww! Well I think you should give it a few weeks till you make a move and ask her out. I'm pretty sure she likes you. Just wait for the right moment to ask her out and ask your friends a little more about her. Like if she likes flowers then put flowers near her locker with a note like " from the person who laid with you on the slide that summer day". Something romantic. And from a girl's point of view, I'm 99.9% sure she likes you. BTW this situation sounds like something out of a book or a super cute chick flick.
