Having a real relationship is much more fun than daydreaming. If he doesn't return your feelings, your friendship would end anyway because you will move on and try to date other guys. He would just be a burden, an obstacle to this. There is no need to play hard to get. If he really has feelings for you then he won't be scared. Try to use words like "want to get to know you better still," "I really like spending time with you, want to spend more time with you" and not throw in labels like relationship, committment, or next level. The more you see him the less the distance between you two.
