but how do i question him about our status without frightening him away.
i dun want to make things so awkward becos we are from the same group you see.
Two possibilities:
I) Fling - no committment and don't expect any. We act like couple, but doesn't mean we are.
II) Silent BGR - kinda childish in my context, but there are people who resort to this because they couldn't say it from their mouth. So they do what it seemed best - actions speaks louder than words.

Before you ask him, look upon yourself. If you fall under (I), there isn't a need to ask because its all in the spirt of fun and free-will. You could ask as well and could be less tact on your words, etc. In simple, you could chose not to bother too much about your communication part. No promise made. No contract written. Nothing stated. No words mentioned - So nothing happened.
But if it is (II), you may like to resort similiar ways to accommodate to his style - for example, when you go out with him, SMS a message in your phone and show to him directly - asking him what is your relationship with him like. Proceed from there.
P.S: In the first place, if you don't want to make things awkward, weird or different from before -
you shouldn't get involve with someone that is in your class/group/etc because whether you desire or not, you probably have to see him for a continuous period of time. This could be a blessing, or a curse.
