I'll bet the writers went to Rick Riordan and said,

"Hey Rick! Our show has this really awesome couple with a lot of chemistry! How do we lead on the viewers  to keep them watching the show without ruining the couple?

"Well, make the girl almost confess her feelings, and then have the guy look like he's figured it out and go on from there."
