You didn't know you liked each other before, so there was no reason for her to stay or for you to pursue her. Everything is out in the open now, though, so I don't think you need to worry about her slipping away again.
It sounds like you get along with her really well, so you can be a friend to her now while she needs it, and more than a friend later when she's ready.
You're a lucky man. Really.
