 I've learned this the hard way. Trust me... you'll regret what you don't do. It sounds trite, but you don't wanna have to deal with the "what-if-I-had-done-this" thoughts and regrets.
Guys can get scared very easily by the L-word, but you should take the leap of faith and tell him how you're feeling. You could say something like, "Do you think we could be more than friends?"
You're afraid of damaging the friendship, but I believe that if someone is truly your friend, then they'll stand by you and not abandon you for anything.
If he doesn't reciprocate, at least you'll have your answer.
