Should I make a move or should I wait a little while?

The best friend love story part 3. So my friend asked me to hold my hand and this time I let him. I really liked it but I didn't tell him because he said he was "practicing" holding girls' hands with me. I was looking away because I was embarrassed. He held my hand the whole way home. Yesterday one of his friends comes over to me (we were on a business trip) during lunch and said "He wants to ask you out." So my womanly instincts told me to say " I'd like to hear that from him" and sure enough he never said anything. So should I make a move on the bus ride home tomorrow?
