It might be a bit hypocritical for me to give advice since I've never done TUGS with any of my friends. But I have heard of some ideas on this site.
The first method of course is to flat out ask. You guys are both 16 (I assume), so maybe he/she will just brush it off as a game and think nothing of it. Although, seeing as how you made this thread asking for help, that probably wasn't the option you wanted to go with.
You could try putting on a movie with a tie up scene in it. Simply wait for the scene and say something along the lines of "I bet I could get out of that no problem." If you like, you could also bet really money to tempt them into agreeing. I'm personally not a fan of this tactic. There's a very small window of time to bring up the prospect, and if you focus too much attention on it they might start to get suspicious. But hey, you never know. It might be worth a shot.
Another idea, one that I wish I'd thought of, is to leave something like duct tape or rope out in the open, someplace where they are bound (I'm hilarious) to notice it. It doesn't guarantee results, but if they start playing with it or ask to tie you up then you'll know they are somewhat into it.
The first TUG is always the hardest (no pun intended). After you get the first one out of the way, you can bring up how much fun it was, or use the concept of revenge to spur future TUGS.
Whatever you do, I would strongly advise that you at least make an attempt soon. As you get older, the concept of tying somebody up loses its innocence, and people begin to suspect alternative motivations. Also, if your friend isn't into it, don't try to push it. Just move on and try it out with some other people.
I know this is all easier said than done. Believe me. I've let the paralyzing fear of judgement keep me from acting on my bondage interests, and I'm about to graduate high school and lose a majority of my friends. I just don't want you to end up in the same boat. Good luck and god speed sir.

Bring it up slowly and make it seem spontaneous. Find a reason that you or they would feel the need to hold the other down. Then when a struggle happens suggest one tie the other up. You could try one annoying the other or wrestling I'm sure you can think of something. But be very careful and 100% sure they are ok and are fully consenting. Tugs against someone's will may make a good fictional story but in real life you could loose a friend, hurt someone, make them uncomfortable or scared and it's very illegal. I know a lot of this goes without saying but after reading lots of stories people can make mistakes.
