Ok so I have a crush on this guy that I’ve known almost my whole life (his older sister and my older sister are friends) and he’s always been cute but now that we’re both 14 he’s gotten that bit cuter and athletic ANYway. There has been those moments where he has stood up for me while I was getting bullied, and I thanked him for that. But now I’ve developed a crush on him! And I want to tell him how I feel but the thing is

- how to I say it

- what if he takes it the wrong way/doesn’t like me back

- or is just a nice guy who stood up for me

I’m also kind of shy... help please!
