Mostly I'd say they got a crush on each other but they don't know what to do because their families hate each other due to the Northwest callousness towards the poor and bullying of Mabel while the Northwests hate the Pines for being poor and hating Dipper for making Pacifica rebel and ruining the party. so they think they are better off as friends for that.

While my other opinion is that they are too young for a relationship when their older they can just go with it or that it was just a standard hero and hostage moment.

For the most part I'd like the crush to be canon but to see what the creators would actually do with it plotwise.
