Even if you're best friends, if you've been apart for a long time and MOST ESPECIALLY if you have feelings for that person, it's completely normal to feel a little embarrassed to ask if you could hang out with the other person again -- and this isn't just a simple hanging out, this is going on a LONG AND AIMLESS JOURNEY ACROSS THE WORLD, and with your friend and love interest, the "World Champion" no less.
