Erm....just make it.
im not sure you need the detailed football playbook of how to make moves if you are both already aware you like they other. its just a matter of circumstance and time before it happens.

Well, at the very least, you should probably avoid mentioning at any point that you posted in an internet forum looking for "making a move" advise whilst using a screen name consisting of the name of a character from a video game. Just the sheer amount of stereotype involved is staggering....



(Unless she's into that sort of thing, of course, in which case disregard my admittedly flippant commentary.)

To do what? It appears to me that you already have clearance to land. So land the plane so you'll be on-time before she runs out of patience.

But on a serious note....

I don't think anyone can really answer your question to any degree of precision, due to the fact that simply there are too many unknown variables surrounding this trip and the past nature of your interactions with this person.

And while I would generally agree with the admonition to simply "go for it", I think in this case it is fraught with risk and a very high probability of failure (much higher even than normal, and I daresay it may as well be a 100% likelihood). I say this for one very simple reason: she already knows you like her. If she wanted to be with you in that way, all she had to do was to say "yes/let's do it" at pretty much any point. Considering that she has not in fact done so to this point should tell you a great deal about her intentions.

In my opinion, I think it's already too late. I think the only thing you'll accomplish is freaking her the hell out and making your trip awkward.

If you two have never been intimate in any way, or discussed the possibility, the fact that she agreed to share a hotel room with you indicates she sees you as a nonromantic friend. If you make a move you are going to risk that friendship. If she had insisted on separate rooms, then that would at least be an indication she sees the situation as potentially sexual and wants to see how things play out without assuming or committing to anything.

Be alert from signals from her, but respect her enough not to take advantage of the situation.

When you get to the hotel room, let her know how you are feeling with the power of music.

Put this song on. . .

Being as you are into your 20's and have liked this girl since high school and she knows it, one cannot help but wonder why nothing has happened between you two in all that time? Is there a reason you have not been intimate these past 7-8 years or so? Just because she agrees to share a room with you doesn't mean she wants to sleep with you. If you can be honest and open with her I would just address it and ask her if she is interested in carrying your friendship further along.
