i like one of my best friends but recently the girl i know he likes thinks i called her a b***h and now shes spreading rumors around the school that my friend and i have been sleeping together.
which we havent casue i would never do that with someone unless we were married cause thats just how i am. So really all i have to say is that just ignore people. if they say something you know isnt true then thats all that matters. sorry i didnt really answer your question but that just poped into my mind and i had to tell you.

Athough some people say that it shouldn't take too long to get over someone, it sounds like he is a very sensitive guy and for him to give his heart to someone was a huge thing to do but then to get it stomped on, makes him at the same time more vulnerable and more pessimistic. It does seem that he does trust you more than anyone right now, and he just wants someone that he can be with that doesn't necessarily have to worry about hurting him at this time. Slowly he is opening his heart up to you and in due time he will soon realize that you would be perfect for him.
If he really is still hurt, asking him straight to the point might be a bit too much forhim and he may slam that door to his heart shut. However, let it gradually progress. If you guys spend alone time together, start by just sitting close, holding hands, getting comfortable being close to each other. If it seems that he really wants to, then you can lean in and kiss him (make sure that the mood is right and be somewhat subtle- soft not too aggressive). If he kisses you back then you already have your answer. If he hesitates a little bit, just say that the mood was just right and you are sorry for it. You didn't mean it in a terrible way (hence why it wasn't aggressive), but the way you make it sound more than likely it'll flourish. He probably likes you but doesn't want to appear that he is just close to you so that he can hook up with you.
Let things happen naturally- get closer to each other- and it'll happen.

On the other hand if you ask him and he says no then again you have created a very awkward situation. This is something only you can rwally decide.
Think long and hard. Is your friendship with him worth sacrificing if things do not work out? Are you willing to take that risk? My advice, and opinion only, is to give it more time. Do not rush it. If it is there it will happen. But it will develope in its own time. Best of luck love...
