My guy friend is being so weird...?!?!?!?

My guy friend that I've known since seventh grade (we're fifteen now) found out by our other friend "Sherryl" that I liked him because she was going to tell hin to ask me to homecoming two months ago. But before that, at the beginning of the school year he was always sitting by me at lunch and we found out we had a lot of things in common including how we both love music, art, and play guitar. Sherryl told him that he should ask me to homecoming and he kept saying why and she finally had to tell him that I liked him, but he said he didn't like me more than a friend. It's been a little awkward since, but he's given me lots of hugs and compliments the band shirts I wear. He also comments on my profile pics on facebook saying my smile looks good on me and how awesome the pics are. He doesn't talk to me as much though. Sherryl also likes him and me and my other friend think that he likes her too...he kinda asked her out on a movie date tonight. Any advice, tips, or similar experiences???
