A while back I developed a crush on a friend and for a while I thought that she may have had mutual feelings for me. After some time my best friend(who also liked someone) and I agreed to finally tell our crushes that we like them. I couldn't go through with it but he did and he didn't start going out with her. He ended up telling the girl I like on Facebook that night that I have something to say to her at school. I was really nervous.
I saw her in the morning before school started but we both immediately looked away from each other and according to the friend I was with at the time, she ran away. At recess I wanted to hang out with other friends to stay away from her while still being nervous but my friend (the one who planned for us to talk to each other) convinced her to come over to talk to me. (Apparently she refused to at first) He made us talk to each other and said to her that I like her. He left us to talk about it but for some reason we didn't. We just spoke to each other as if she was not just told that I like her.
After the bell I spoke to my best friend about what happened so he later asked her(without telling me he was going to) what she thinks of me. According to him she may have felt pressured to give him an answer an just said that she doesn't know. The next morning (a weekend) I sent her a message on Facebook saying that I didn't want my friend to interfere at all and would have told her when ready. She said that is was understandable and changed topic.
It has been 5 weeks at least since she found out I like her and we haven't spoken about it at all. I haven't brought it up because I don't feel comfortable bringing it up. Also because it is hard to have a serious conversation with her.
Is there any chance of something happening and if so what should I do?
P.S. Our friendship hasn't changed at all.

I just don't think either of you are ready. You both seem pushed into the situation together. Give it time, and maybe in the future she will feel the same.

While it may have been noble for your friend to step in and tell her some things, he still had no place to tell her anything without your permission.
Now she may think that you told your friend to tell her these things, which may put you in a different light in her eyes.
That being said, if your friendship hasn't changed then that's good. There's still a chance. But just taking baby steps is the way to go, it seems. Just hang out with her more and don't bring up the fact that you like her all too much. It may make things awkward. Try your best to maintain and enhance your friendship a bit more before making any "moves".

Just pretend you don't know she knows and act normally around her as if she didn't know you like her.

That is exactly what I've been doing.

It's good that you guys are still close friends even with what happened at school. I think you just have to give it time before bringing the topic up with her. But, the important thing is she knows you're interested in going out with her. It's almost like a work promotion. You have to be brave enough to go up to your boss and tell her you're interested in a promotion. Same thing goes in a relationship
