Did I blow it??

Hi!! I (17 f) went out on a date with a guy (18 f) that I've known for a little while through work this weekend just passed and I'm wondering if I've blown this chance before anything has even happened :(.

We'd been talking most days online for a couple of weeks after he asked for my Instagram one night after work, which was a step up from our random chats whenever we'd see each other after work (he's in the kitchen so I don't see him during shift much). Both of us had been fairly quick to message back and almost all of our conversations were long and filled with just learning more about each other and stupid jokes hehehe. At one point he asked if I'd like to hang out and play pool and get some lunch afterwards which I agreed to and was super excited for, and through my other work friend lowkey wingmaning me it was established openly by him that it was a date. Anyways, vibes during the date were good, with good conversation and laughs etc. including talk of a "next time" 🤭🤭. I suggested we should see a movie, to which he responded that there doesn't seem to be much in the cinemas at the moment, but that we'd figure it out. With him being the forward one to ask for my Instagram and to go out originally I thought I'd match him, so in conversation online I plucked up my courage and asked him if he'd want to come over to mine to watch a movie instead (I've never seen star wars, he loves it and keeps wanting me to watch it), and all I got was a "Hmmm. Lemme think 🤔" so I followed it up with a "no pressure or anything" message and we sorta just kept talking for a little bit about other things then he went offline and just left my messages on delivered which is a bit unusual. This was all last night, and the last thing I sent in convo was a pic of my nails (I grabbed a pack of press ons when I was with him so thought it would be relevant 😭), to which he responded "awesome !!" and I've just left it for now.

I'm just a bit lost on what could have happened for him to maybe lose interest? I'm not sure if maybe I was a bit too forward or quick inviting him over? Is it worth it to just say forget what I said and to stick with the original movie plans, or will that just me further into a hole? Any help is appreciated, thank you!! <33
