Crushes.......?

Ok I sit on the right side of the room and my crush sits on the other side(another row down) and I talk to my friends over where he sits and when I look over there often he covers his eyes like he's playing peek-a-boo it's soo funny I just smile he covers both eyes and moves his right hand pinkie....Does he like he's a year older than me my friends are saying he's in 9th grade and well I'm in 8th grade!?
