I think it did develop during iKiss, although she didn't realize it. What I think did make her realize it, was in iThink They Kissed, when Carly asks the pair of them if they liked it. And then she realizes that Carly and Freddie may actually be a possibility in iSD;; later, after iSYL, she's still wary of her feelings, and the fact that Creddie could happen... until iSAF;; and then she finally decides it'd be time to try getting him to like her (iOMG).

Or, maybe I'm looking into it too much.
