Yeah, I think Pearl had romantic feelings for Rose too. I always had my suspicions, but there's no denying that her behavior in Rose's Scabbard had romantic overtones to it. I mean, you can interpret it however you want, but it was deliberatley implied. I also think that it's more likely than not that it means something, since the writers like to foreshadow things very early on and make subtle hints than fans won't usually pick up on or think twice about until bigger connections are made or the the thing is revealed. Take Garnet being a fusion, for example. Ian JQ said that one of the hints they made to her being a fusion was the two shooting stars appearing behind her in the theme song! If the foreshadowing can be that sneaky and subtle, who knows how many hints they could've dropped about Pearl having a crush on Rose Quartz in previous episodes! (If it's true that she does, I mean.) Aside from the entirety of Rose's Scabbard, all that comes to mind right now is the way Pearl spoke of Rose's healing powers all "dreamy" like in An Indirect Kiss, and these interesting bits from the in character interview that was done with Newsarama:

Nrama: And Pearl, '''I'm sure it must have been very unusual for you when you found out Rose Quartz had fallen in love with a human. What was [t]hat like for you?'''

Greg: Wow, you’re really zero to sixty with these questions, buddy.

Pearl: That is absolutely none of your business!

Nrama: Well, what about when you found out Rose Quartz was going to have a half-human child?

Pearl: Brilliant leaders do brilliant things, that’s why you look to them for answers, answers no one else could have, that’s why you trust them, even when you can’t understand why they chose …Greg.
