*URGENT* guy help?!!?

So I don't wanna go way too into detail, but there's this guy, lets call him Cole, and I really really like him. He at times drops hints as to if he likes me. My graduation was last month, and we went to this banquet hall, and there was a dance. The last dance was a slow song and I was hoping that he'd ask me to dance and he did. I was really really happy. In class we sometimes talk, and joke around with each other. My friend tells me that she heard he really likes me. And cole's friend once came up to me and told me that he really likes me. They might be kidding, because you know people joke about those kind of things...

On the last day of school, he gave me a hug and I asked for his number. We exchanged numbers and we left. We're going to separate schools next year and we won't be able to see each other. :/

If he "likes me sooo much" as everyone says, why won't he text me? I'm definitely not gonna text first. And didn't he get the hint for when I asked for his number?

Oh and also he always likes all my photos on IG.

I really need help. What should I? Should I text him? I don't wanna scare him off or anything.. Because I'm not sure if he likes me, and it would be really awkward.

And we have friends in common but we don't really TALK TALK at school but we talk, like normally.
