I’m going to ask him out

So we've been friends for a little while, and we have quite a few shared interests , and I'd say we get on pretty well.
And I have his number. I heard that he wants to have someone as his valantine,so I'm going to ask him . This is my plan , I'm going to ask him these questions at school . If he says no to the first 2 then I won't proceed with asking the other questions . "Are you dating anyone ?" "Do you want to date anyone?" "Would you ever want to date me?" Please leave your advice . Thank you for reading .
