I too, think that Zidane was really in love with Garnet at that point, already.
I interpret that part in the story as that Zidane sort of forgot who Garnet really is and was uncosciously planning to have her around, as it was, for ever.
That would have lead to, first a tentative flirting and a serious courting, eventually.
However, now, he is faced with the fact that she is a nation leader and royalty, to boot, while he is just a common thief and a commoner, to boot, making any relationship with her, even tentative flirting, a gross departure from social rules, he can't see himself any farther from her at this point, and unless she makes a move, there is nothing for him to do.
So, now, the ladie's man find himself in love with the one woman he can't conquer.
I would be in a funk, too, if I would be in his place!.
