Would these things be considered romantic enough?

I'm 16, and a guy, about a month ago I made a friend who's 17 and a girl. Right now she's my only friend...
a) share food with her (I hear it dates back all the way to the time of the neanderthals, and is still effective
b) share a drinking cup with her
c) tell her "well, don't you look lovely...?"
d) (she said her little brother was her 'Knight in shining armor') so I tell her, "I wanna be your knight in shining armor like your brother is," with a smile

I think these would all go pretty poorly with most girls I know.

A) is a great option, maybe ask what kinds of foods she likes then a different day invite her to a restaurant of that type (if she likes mexican food, invite her to your favorite mexican place, for example)

B) I find this to be romantic but most people (especially NT's) see it as a casual friendly thing in my experience.

C) This seems a little too forward or intimate if you haven't been seeing each other already - and I might work on the wording. Go with a more casual compliment, and drop a few more if she responds well or starts complimenting you.

D) This is sweet but also more intimate. I would save this comment for a time when you are already having an emotional discussion with her. For example if she's opening up about having support in her life, you could express that you want to be supportive and want to be another person who's on her team like her brother is :)
