Should I make the first move?

So I really like this guy at my church. It's honestly more than "like" at this point, but I can't tell him that 🤣 anyway... for a long time, about 7 months, he's been giving me mixed signals.
It's very subtle stuff that isn't super obvious to everyone else. He's also my brother's best friend, so I feel like it's been kinda hard for us to cultivate a friendship together that is separate from our young adults groups, etc. We both are super into music, and it would be a really good fit, I think, but like I said, I was receiving a lot of mixed signals. Until last night. Last night was the first time that he complimented my looks. We arrived, and he looked me up and down and said, "Wow, you're looking really nice tonight," with a big grin on his face. I complimented him back. Then, the whole night (we had a valentines performance), he was staring at me, and he complimented me about 6 times throughout the night (on my singing skills). He kept following me around and "accidentally" bumping into me. Once, when I walked into the room, we made eye contact, but it was that type of eye contact that we both KNEW we both were attracted to eachother. My question ig is if I should make a move, or if I should just let him do it. The thing is, he's extremely respectful and introverted. In addition, his sisters and I are close, and I told you, I've been getting mixed signals. But this last week has felt different between us. And I can't keep feeling this way about him, you know? Like this man has my heart. And
Should I make the first move?
