Amount of points determines on how good the reply is.

There is this girl from my school. We have been flirting a lot lately, and we seem to talk every time we meet. We are in 5 classes together. We casually converse about subjects that we think alike in. We laugh a bit while we are talking. She shows some display of physical affection (poking each other, touching each other's arm, ect.) We smile whenever we see each other in the halls. I have recently developed feelings for her.

I recently told a friend of mine that I like her and was going to ask her out. He told a few of his friends that were my friends too. I didn't really mind that considering that they wouldn't tell anyone that I didn't trust. He then said something about it in class to me from a few seats away. A few people heard it, and they are the ones that I cannot trust. Before I knew it, it was all around my school.

I haven't asked her out yet, and I don't know if I will; it is pending at the moment. I don't know if someone has told her. With how small my school is, I assume that she knows.

I don't know if I should ask her out or just tell her the story. She doesn't have a cell phone, so I have to say it to her in a class. What would be the best thing to do in this situation?

Whether or not she knows, if you want to ask her, ask her.  Plain and simple.

Tell her in class you want to talk to her in private. Take her some place out the way quickly before your next class and tell her you want to see her after school to hang out. If she says yes, it's all good, hang out then ask her out. If she says no, ask her if she can make another time :)

Just ask her out, If you thought she liked you before why would she stop liking you because she heard it in the halls from some kid? dont be scared, If she doesnt work out between the both of you you will always find someone else that you will have feelings for. If it does work then Good luck

Talk to her after the class is over or on the way to the other class, and tell her how you really feel coming out from you, it should be different than hearing it from other people.

you could tell her during lunch or afterschool.

I think you should casually throw into a conversation that you guys should hang out sometime. If she agrees drop it.

Sometimes when you see each other on the hall, ask her for her number and plan a time to hang out.

Seems like she likes you =)

just ask her out and if she said yeah i heard something about it just be like i was nervous and trying to gather up the balls to ask you out

In my honest opinion dude. ask her out where you are most comfortable. id personally ask them somewhere quiet.

Goodluck and keep us updated

Start by apologising for the rumors, It is a perfect ice-breaker, and you will automatically be in topic.

If I was you and in this situation. I would just spill my guts out in class and fuck who is listening and then I'd ask her out. If it matters this much to you then just say what you have to ok.

Just say: Hey, you heard any rumors lately? Cuz I heard from some people that you liked me. (this is a little reversal trick that i learned. It works!)  And if she heard the rumor that you like her, then she'll probably say it to you in defense of that rumor.  If she did hear it, ask her if she thinks its true, and then if she says yes, say: well i think the rumor about you is true.  Is it? Then you can see if she likes you, and then you can go in and ask her out!

In my opinion, I would just tell her.

First of all though, I would apologise for what's happened (even though it wasn't your fault) I think judging by the situation, she would of felt like she was put on the spot, and not sure how to react to it.

I would also tell her how it all happened. Explain how you ended up telling a friend, then some other people accidentally found out, and that's when all the rumours started.

Even if it turned out she didn't feel the same way as you, she would respect you for being mature and telling her about it, rather than you hiding away. If you do nothing about it now, it would make the situation even more embarrassing every time you see her, because you didn't get to talk about it.

Judging by the signs though, it does sound like she may be interested in you :) Like I said, it will make you look better if you admit that you like her. Girls prefer guys to make the first move, so I think you should go for it. Good luck :)

Perhaps you shouldn't go about this too quickly, but it really is up to you. If you feel comfortable asking her out now then do it, she probably already knows anyway. You have a lot of classes together, and you seem to be with each other for a lot of time already so maybe it's time to ask her out. Something else that would be good, is if you tell the truth. As in, if someone asks you, "Do you like so and so..." you could just say something like, "Yes, she's a good person" or something like that because otherwise misunderstandings might happen, especially now that everyone seems to know what's going on. I think you should go for it. You have nothing to lose and it's always nice to have someone to love :) Just try it and see how it goes because after all that's all life is about: Trying everything!

Bro, you should bring up the rumors but insist that they're false and you'd never date her. Say you feel that you and her are incompatible, and she's not your "type". That would drive her mad and get her sprung for you so hard. Trust me on this one. Make sure when you're telling her this you're straight-calm and throw in a smirk or two.
