Search Results: too scared to talk to girls

So, I've been working with a new girl and there was an instant chemistry as we are from the only 2 from same area, the rest are from a different part of the city.

Very quickly we found out we have the same mentality towards our work and when we work together we have fantastic results. We get on to the point that senior management believed something was going on outside of work and wanted us to stop working together as they didn't want us to mix work and private life. This is probably because in the office (which is open plan) we are always near each other and our banter is amazing, we are always laughing together, joking and communicating. Although this far nothing more than friendship is going on.

I have now and again caught her looking in my direction at me, and she now offers to drive me much closer to home so my journey is much simpler. She's also offered to pick me up, which I've declined. When we talk and it's just us (when she's dropping me home) she is always laughing and joking and she seems very happy in my company. One night she went out of her way as she was worried I might not get home, even though my train was due... She said she was worried something might happen to me.

She always initiates that we should work together and it's very evident she enjoys my company. Outside of work however we talk little, this is due to her having a very busy lifestyle which she does talk to me about when we're together but I try not to contact her too much as I don't wanna seem desperate or scare her away.

I really like her, however am unsure if she feels the same. Some of the signs are there that suggests she does, but I'm just unsure. I'd love to ask her out however don't want thinks to be awkward between us. I'd be okay with being rejected and remaining friends but don't know how she would take it.

Based on reading this, would you say there's something more than friendship? Should I ask her out?
