Answer

According to the Shari'ah, it is prohibited to have any contact with a Ghayr Mahram (not prohibited in marriage) males before marrying the person.

Ghayr Mahram males and females must observe Hijaab with one another. It is the non-observance of Hijaab that leads to many evils, among them, one is, for example, liking the boy. You should make an effort to keep your distance from the boy and purify your heart and mind from that thought as that may generate many more evil thoughts, especially, in today's times of evil and corruption.
