Are we a couple? or not really?

An awkward and odd question. I KNOW. It's funny how I'd put it in here instead of asking him myself. I can't do that, It'll ruined everything. So here's the thing, ryan had confessed his feelings towards me 2 months ago. He said he LIKES me and yes, me too, and I LOVE him. I met him 2 years ago started to like him after a while. So, we renctly holded hands in the movies, he kissed my hands and a caring lad when it comes to me. We're both 17 and go to different schools. He's in a boarding school and so far away from mine. And he never did, told me that he LOVES me or anything. So I'm conffused. HELP!
