I really like him...what should I do?

I met this guy at a social function earlier this year, and we both work and live in the same city. I was instantly attracted to him but thought a guy like him who is very attractive and smart could get any girls he wants. We exchanged business cards but never maintained any contact. However, he kept popping into my mind from time to time. Finally, I drummed up some courage and emailed him earlier this month and asked him to join me at a happy hour event. He came alone and we had a great conversation. My coworkers told me that he's totally checking me out. Then I emailed and thanked him for coming to the happy hour the next day. I also invited him to another happy hour event the following week, but he couldn't make it. However, he wrote in his email that we should hang out some other time and that he wants to stay in the city where we both work and live more often during the weekends. I was thrilled and thought he's interested. Within the next week, we had emails back and forth saying something like "ya, we should definitely hang out..." We even exchanged cell phone numbers. I even told him that I'm free during the weekends and we could hang out and grab something to eat. However, he hasn't called. I feel so sad b/c I really like him and he sounded like he's totally interested in hanging out and getting to know me in his emails. However, I really don't want to make the first phone call and do the "chasing." I believe that if he's truly interested in me, he would have made the first phone call. Besides, I had make the first move already by emailing him at the first place. I'm torn because I really really like him but I really don't want to throw myself out there and keep making the move.
I'm just so confused. From his demeanor during the happy hour and his subsequent emails, it seems that he's definitely interested (and my friends agreed). But why hasn't he called? I know for a fact that he's single and unattached, and I can't stop thinking about him. So what does this mean? Is he interested at all? What should I do? :-\

Absolutely do not call him.
