But now she's one of my best friends, and I really like her, but I'm afraid that if I come out and tell her, that it will screw up what we have. Should I tell her or just keep it to myself?

First try to make sure that she feels the same about you. Try to see for hints about her behavior around you. Try not to confuse her friendly behavior or special behavior towards you (since you're her best friend) with romantic feelings.
A good way to do this is to look at her eyes when you talk to her. Eyes are the window to the soul and this is a good way to know what she feels about you. What this also can do is for her to see what you're inside and probably get a crush on you or feel stronger for you.
It's a risk to tell her when you're not even sure if she likes you back. Make sure she does like you back or at least gives you hints. Test the waters with her because if you do tell her your relationship might change.
Good luck buddy
