Hopeless Loving

I'm sure some of you have experienced or are in a similar situation for love. Still, I figured no one close to me knows about this account, and I'd share my longing and predicament regarding a girl I'm interested in. I'm close to this girl we'll call Madame Madz. She is everything. Her sense of humor is so unique, as well as her attitude. I simply cannot help to think of anyone else even remotely like her. Cute and beautiful, a maiden of the fairest degree; and yet it seems our affections are held back for reasons of another party (a related noble friend), to which I cannot judge if her true feelings are akin to mine. I know the solution would be to simply converse with her and lay my heart out for her to deny or accept, but I'm struggling to get responsive, timely answers. She seems to almost ignore messages for days, but responds in a full, detailed manner. When last I was face to face with her, I questioned the likeness and willingness towards me, and she responded with "Maybe", reminding me of our conflict with the noble friend and quote, "She would not allow it". However, immediately after that response, we had shared intimate moments together (I do it not justice trying to rewrite the replication of our supple kiss that had never been better) that went contrary to what she had said. I've barely gotten a response from her to "hangout" since then, and I'm simply wondering if I should attempt to pursue her further, considering she hasn't rejected my advances. I'm currently waiting and sitting in limbo, looking for a sign, but I figured you guys may have a direct answer that can ease the well deepening inside my stomach. For better or for worse I'm willing to take whatever solution.
