Try not to let the opportunity pass! It sounds like you do like him and may be fearful about moving forward. If it turns out he’s not right for you, at least you didn’t deny yourself the opportunity to be happy with him.

Do you think you can start our slow by asking for his number or asking him if he’d want to study with you sometime? If you start out with something school related it may take some of the pressure off for you and you can chat from there. If it helps you could hang out in a group as well with some of both of your friends there to reduce pressure the first few times you hang out. I know you said you just moved though.

Maybe if you do talk to him you can rehearse what you want to say first? That way you have an idea of what you want to tell him before you talk to him.

If your friends ask what that’s about, it’s none of your business if you don’t want to tell them! You can say it’s personal if you want to, or you can say that you’re trying to get to know him better without going into a lot of detail.
