Confused - did I scare him off?

I'm 28 and have gone out with a guy (33) twice now. We met randomly just about two or three weeks ago but I *really* like him. We have a lot in common and can talk for 8 hours straight without any awkward silences. He often comments on how it's rare for him to find someone he can talk to so easily.
On Friday we had our second date. At the end when we parted ways, I suddenly got really nervous and shy and I could feel he did as well. He gave me a hug and then a peck on the side of my mouth - not on my lips or cheek, just halfway between.
We both pulled back and I said goodbye and he said, "I'll talk to you later."
I had meant to chip in for some of the date (it was a bit pricey) but when I get nervous I go brain dead (sigh) so I forgot to leave cash. I sent him a text message to say I was sorry for not chipping in but he made me nervous and I forgot! That was about 2:30am Saturday (just after I left). Sunday I got an email from him saying thanks for the text, don't worry at all about not chipping in because I was his guest and it was the least he could do for me driving all the way out there (he isn't far - about half an hour away). Then he said "have a great weekend" and his name.
I replied and said thanks, I had a great time (despite getting nervous at the end) and if he was interested I'd love to do it again sometime soon if he was interested. I then asked about the rest of the weekend (he had some interesting plans) and signed off with "talk to you soon."
That was early yesterday (Sun) and I haven't heard back. The date was Friday evening until about 2:00am Saturday morning. I know he was really into me - I could tell by his body language and things he said. Did I scare him off by admitting I was nervous? Or do you think maybe he thinks I'm not interested because I didn't go in for more of a kiss? Is it okay for me to ask him out or should I wait and see if I hear from him?
Any advice/opinions would be appreciated! Thank you!

Monday was Memorial Day so it's possible he had other things going on and wasn't able to get back in touch with you, but if you'd really like to go out with him again, I don't see why you couldn't

Hi there
Just go for it, call him and ask him out. If a third date ends up not working out for whatever reason, then I guess let him make the next step. You shouldn't have to put in all of the effort of getting together, it should go both ways.
