Slay-

Nice job capitalizing on the attention she gave you for your fractured arms. A few remarks:

Slay said:
I'm getting asked a lot about what happened to me and it's generating a bit of attention in class. This girl I've never spoken to before is looking at me quite a lot and smiling when we make eye contact. I had a feeling she was going to try to initiate contact with me so I played it cool.

And so she does:

Well played. Let her come to you if you can tell she's likely to.

Slay said:
Girl:So what happened to your arm? Someone's been stroking a bit too hard *smiles*
Me;*I chuckle and divert my head to the side for a quick second before returning my gaze*. Yes, I bet that paints a pretty picture in your head.
Girl:Yes, *She laughs and stares seductively*
Me: * I stare with an inquisitive look*

Nice initial banter here. She's really going for the sexual tension.

She was still half a room across me so I made no effort in trying to talk to her any further and started speaking to the people around me, I knew she would come back for more. She kept staring at me and about 20 minutes later I order her to sit next to me. She does as she is told quietly.

We soon find out we where in the same previous schools and I tease her about being kind of a bad girl. We deep dive for a bit.

This girl is doing everything I tell her to without question. Throw away this, Turn your body this way. She offers to do the classwork for me, and puts my book bag on for me. Her level of investment was godlike haha.

Going great so far. But here you mess up:

As she is putting the sling around my arm we get extremely close and we just lock eyes. I was about to kiss her when

In public? In front of your classmates?

That makes you look like a (indiscreet) playboy, and her look easy.

Gives you a little more notoriety in school, but it's iffy notoriety (he isn't discreet, with discretion being one of the biggest signs of a guy who really sees action - comes with experience), and it's at the expense of anything happening with this girl. She'll be too scared of a repeat, and you've already shown her you won't look out for her reputation.

Don't let tension reach this point in public in front of social circles. Instead, defuse it before it gets this tense and trade numbers or set up a date instead. Kiss (and more) on the date... in private.

Slay said:
a girl says, "Aw you guys would make a cute couple" (I hate people who do this). Some of the other kids agreed to this out loud which made her a bit shy and a little more reserved towards me (social pressure).

More than a bit. This is what killed it.

You did fantastic with your earlier timing and with getting investment. This girl was into you.

If not for the dropped ball by escalating things too far in public in front of your and her social circle, you probably could've gotten far with this one. At this point, your best hope for recovery is having her see you get preselection with other girls flirting with you, either in class or at a party (party's probably the best bet; then once she shows interest, very discreetly take her somewhere isolated - biggest hurdles with her now are overcoming her auto-rejection, then communicating that you can be and usually are discreet).

And, of course... look out more for girls' reputations for them in the future. They can't help it if they lose all sense around you ;)
