I know how many stories start with this, but i have NO idea how to proceed with this.

So this girl, sarah, is one of my best friends. We dated the beginning of my junior year in high school and i havent been with another girl since then (currently college freshman). We've been really up and down with our friendship mostly because of me and my emotional attachment to her and just being a dick. So the beginning of this year I finally accepted that we were not going to be together and realized i had to sit back for a long time and be her friend. So weve been really close since then and we were still talking while i was at school but obviously just as friends. I didnt start getting into the game until pretty recently but i came home for thanksgiving this past thursday. friday night i went out to a club and i was feeling really good, talking to a lot of girls and using some techniques I learned. (As a side note, the highlight of my night was dancing with an HB9 with an ass that was probably a 9. So that was a major confidence boost for me as i went about the next day. Saturday night is where the problem starts. I went with Sarah and Beth to beths house and we were pre-gaming before some people came over (gotta love Jagerbombs and Goldschlager). I could feel that I was giving off an aura of confidence and I was just being laidback and making them laugh, not even trying to run game. So the night progresses and were starting to get pretty drunk. Eventually i put my arm around Sarah and were cuddling on the couch and its chill because were just friends and friends can cuddle right? Somehow (were both sufficiently drunk now) we ended up upstairs laying in beths bed cuddling and shes saying shes tired and other drunk person stuff. then we end up kissing and it escalates until we end up having sex (Literally the best night of my entire life. I love her more than anything and it was the moment i had dreamed about for years). We get interuppted by beth coming and yelling at us and we both had to go then anyways. So shes driving me home and were both kind of in shock like wtf just happened. We get to my house and i turned off the car and she started crying (never a good sign) because she has a boyfriend SPAM (even though she says shes unhappy with him and she says she going to break up with him this week). I acknowledge that were both too drunk to talk now so i say ill talk to her in the morning. commence worst night of my life wondering what the outcome will be and crying out of fear of driving her away.

The next morning I call her at 7:30 because im like sick at this point and we go out and get coffee. The main points are that she knows there was emotion involved and she felt that way too so i asked her if she would try being "with me" for the week im home and see what happens. she said she had to deal with some shit first (breaking up with her boyfriend). she dropped me off at home and went to go do other stuff and we would meet up later. She ended up coming over to my house for like 6 hours later and we watched a movie on my bed and we cuddled and fell asleep together cuddling (Another best night of my life and something i had been dreaming about for years), no kissing or anything that suggests romance i guess. Today we hungout when she got out of school with two other female friends. she was sitting on the chair away from me and i baited her onto the couch by showing her a picture. at that point i wanted to put my arm around her so badly but it didnt feel right because of her body language. how do i change that? I want to keep having sex with her and i know shes into me to some point but i cant figure out what the hell to do. but i would much rather have a relationship with no sex because i want to have that intimacy with her. Can anybody give me an idea of what to do here?

Something relevant that i want to bring up in support of why we should be together;
we were walking somewhere today and talking about stuff and we both brought up the same event at the same time and just looked into each others eyes and clicked. At that point i had a huge smile on my face and thought to myself "There is no way that i am not meant to be with this girl, i just have to make her see it" PLEASE ADVISE.

Ok, the MOST important thing to do is to keep your cool.
This is key: THIS is exactly how it works my friend! Try to put yourself into that situation every time you see her. If you learn to have the right mindset, it is more than possible to "get" her:
I am going as far as to say one of the main reasons you could break through that friendship that night was not the alcohol, it was the way you presented yourself to her: Cool, not worried about anything, yet you started making physical contact... You could feel it that night, you felt awesome and calm. Trust me the girls could feel that about you as well.

Follow this: (f%ck the numbers, no particular order I'm just writing down what comes into my head...)

1.) Be cool.
2.) Be patient.
3.) Don't be needy. I can sense you would already do anything to be with her. Stop that attitude.
4.) Have more physical contact OUTSIDE the bedroom (but not in a creepy way).
For example: Touch her arm when you are talking, as if it's not a big deal, slowly start sliding your hand down her arm, REMOVE YOUR HAND. See how she reacts, if she backs off don't be discouraged give it 5min and start all over again. Don't overdo it. Think of her like a new pet you have just got, and that pet has to get used to you...
5.) Tease her in a playful way! Make her laugh.
6.) Do NOT act on ANYTHING she says. This is very important. If she says "Let's just stay friends", you are going to be cool with it!! And then you start with number 4.) and 5.) again... You have her already, stay in there but don't stop escalating from time to time. If she asks what you're doing just say you don't know, it just happens...
7.) Lead her! When you hang out again, do fun stuff with her. It is NOT important to hang out with her as much as you can, actually less is more. It is important to give her an awesome fun time when you do. Give her the chance to miss you.
8.) Don't always be available. Keep your value up, be busy sometimes and don't jump like a dog for her.
9.) NEVER invest more than she does. If you feel you are "losing" her attention, withdraw yours as well and try again next week...
10.) Do not bring up anything about that night again. Remember you are cool, NOTHING worries you. You are a rock! ONLY TALK ABOUT IT IF SHE STARTS TO... and remember: Girls don't make sense logically very often, don't let anything she says discourage you! You are on a mission and the mission is to end up with her.
11.) Don't try to put a name on your relationship, that will come automatically.

To sum EVERYTHING up: You are awesome and you know it. You could get any girl, therefore any girl would be happy to be with you. You know what you want and you go for it, but you don't cry like a baby if you don't get your toy tonight. You just gonna grab the toy yourself next time...
