Search Results: looking into eyes

For context, I am 17F, and he is 16M.

I've known him for around a year now, and we didn't use to hang out this much.
Recently, we've been hanging out almost every weekend, and every day in school. We both do Theatre and Track & Field, so we hang out there too.

He's become very cuddly, and touchy with me, wanting hugs and telling me I'm beautiful. And he does this fascinating eye contact thing... Anytime I'm talking, he is always looking into my eyes, and sometimes we'll look at each other and hold eye contact without saying anything.

I can also completely stop his words. He'll be saying something, and in the middle of a sentence, I can just stare into his eyes, and his words will fizzle off into nothing, and he'll just stand there, looking at me. I can hold that for as long as I want before restarting the conversation.

He's very protective of me, especially when I'm sleeping, he'll hold me and make sure no one disturbs me. It's really sweet.

With this knowledge, I believe I'm in a situationship. (Correct me if you believe otherwise, open to any comments!) That being said, should I make the first move, or should I give him some more time, and let him do it himself?
