How could you be less shy...have you tried asking him to help you with that? Seriously, say: hey I need you to help me whenever you can to feel less shy around you. I'm sure he'll make an effort to make you feel more comfortable. Relax of course. Sometimes if you just tell him what you are thinking, yes even if its about him, it takes a lot of you.
Also, try to keep things going questions - in a conversation. If he talks about something or you do, persue it by asking questions and trying to get his responce while giving yourself a chance to share your thoughts.
Let things happen. I'm guessing you are sometimes nervous or scared or worried...don't be. Its a lot more fun when you aren't. If you notice that you are shy, then force yourself to just...have fun! Lighten things up with a joke, tease him a little maybe, or just say random things - guys don't mind that at all. Hope that helped and good luck.
