Story:So i'm a junior in high school, and there is a girl i like, who i don't know very well. We've met once, but i felt like she might be interested in me as well. I say this cause we ride the same city bus after school, (which was where my friend introduced us) and that day she kept stealing glances at me. I thought it was just me, but on plenty of other days, i asked a friend to see if she did while i pretended to be on my phone, and they always said yeah. We saw each other in the halls frequently, and i would always smile at her and she would either smile back, or look down/away. I caught her looking on the bus once, and then smiled, she smiled and then quickly looked away. I'm reading it as there is some interest, but i didn't do anything at that time, because i was about to ask another girl to be my gf, and that ended about a month and a half ago. Problems:But the biggest problems i have, which is where i need your help. Is 1.) she's a senior and i'm a junior, so how would i get to put myself out there for her. 2.) how do i get to get her number or someway to talk to her. 3.) am i misreading the situation?Thanks for reading all this guys, and i hope to get some good answers.

Talk to her as a friend first, and each time, let her know something interesting about yourself and genuinely be interested in getting to know her. I read once that for average relationships, there are about thirty steps between initial flirting and forming a relationship. I don't think those "steps" are written the same way for everyone, but I do think it takes time.
Don't worry about her being a senior. Just get to know her, let her get to know you, and when you are comfortable, ask her out. Ask her for her number first, but if you go to an event together or something, you would need to get her number anyway.
