Personally, I just thought they were doing the classic JRPG thing where they never blatantly state two characters are paired off, but the frequency they mention how much they 'care' for one another makes it obvious to anyone playing the game.
On an unrelated note, I never really understood what the driving force was for a l'cie to even complete their focus. You either turn into a cie'th if you fail (i.e. braindead until someone kills you) or a crystal if you succeed (i.e. braindead for 'eternity'). Obviously for the group it was different since they learned they could revert from crystal form eventually, but the average person probably wouldn't know that. Maybe that has something to do with the 64 l'cie loafing around Gran Pulse instead of actually doing their focus.
