Accidentally slept with coworker, then confessed my feelings towards her

So I work somewhere that only has about 10 employees total including me (20m), and my coworker (19f) who I have become very good friends with over the time we have been working together (about 6 months). During this time I sorta developed a crush on her but I never did anything about it because I didn't want to make things weird at work or ruin our friendship in anyway.

About a week ago, some of my coworkers decided we were all going to hang out and drink together on one of the weekends just for fun. Naturally myself and the coworker I like a lot also decided to go. The whole night was a lot of fun, and her and I were talking a lot. Suddenly out of the blue she bluntly admitted that she had thought about having sex with me. She then preceded to ask if I ever would. I got really nervous when she asked this because I had a lot of other coworkers around who were within hearing distance. Being slightly intoxicated, I said yes to her, then the whole rest of the night she was very touchy with me around everyone else but I didn't really mind in the moment. Later that night I took her back to my place and we slept together.

The next morning I took her back home and we said farewell. Later in the day we were texting each other to reassure ourselves that it wouldn't be awkward the next day at work. This line of texting somehow led to me telling her that I really like to spend time with her and then I basically confessed to her that I like her. She didn't really say much about it which made me a little worried. I'm not sure if she didn't understand my confession because sometimes I am not the best at conveying my feelings, or if she just chose to ignore it because she doesn't feel the same way. Things have been normal between us at work but deep down I can't stop thinking about this and don't really know what to do next. Any advice?
