Kids these days are amazing. Consider this conversation overheard between two 6-year-olds, presumably having affections for each other.

Calvin: Hey Suzie, you know I like you, don't you?
Suzie: Yeah Cal... you told me that a couple of times already.
Calvin: What about you?
Suzie: What about me? (pretending to be blur)
Calvin: Yeah Suz... do you like me or not? (slightly nervous)
Suzie: Well Cal, you know I do. (blushes slightly)
Calvin: ... uhm, it would be nice to hear you say it though. (voice sounding cheeky)
Suzie: Sigh, you know I do. (blushes rose pink)
Calvin: Ah well, yeah I suppose I do. (disappointed)
Suzie: ...
Calvin: Hmm, why don't you let me hug you? (curiousity mounting)
Suzie: Uhm well, 'cause you know why ... (cheeks turning pinker)
Calvin: Or hold your hand ... and smooch you like how those people do in the movies? (curiously and brazenly daring)
Suzie: *gulp...* I.. I.. uhm, well ... (cheeks turning extremely pink)
Calvin: Sigh, I'm sorry. I uhm have a question to ask you... just one question. ... Do you miss me? (hoping against hope)
Suzie: You know I do... (cheeks turning beetroot red)
Calvin: Sigh ... okay... (dissapoinment reaching its peak)

Both Calvin and Suzie pauses to what seems like eternity 'til...

Suzie: Cal... you know I miss you and like you. *pause* But do you know why I miss you? ... I miss you for being there for me and spending time with me. These are very precious memories to me... I'm eager to see you again because of these reasons. I don't want to miss you because of other intimate reasons. *pause* Besides, we're not old enough to do these stuffs just yet. (smiling satisfiedly)
Calvin: *lump in throat* (sniffs slightly)

Sigh, little boys have so much to learn. But little girls? Oh, they seem so eager to be responsible, mature and understanding at their age. (:
