All I have to say is. Just go for it! I was in the same position and trust me I got my fair share of rejections. I didn't want to ask out my lady friends for the fear of rejection, broken friendship, and aftermath awkwardness. So for all the fair share of rejections, I also have my fair share of dating one of the most cutest girls that a lot of dudes be hatin on me for.
Some tips and tricks I used overcome my fear of rejection was to build some self-esteem & confidence. I would tell myself "At least I had the balls to ask you out." or "Hey I was able to put myself out there to confess to you, so I don't have any regrets of asking you out."
Hope this helps.
