The chemistry that someone feels when they meet another person they're attracted to never goes away. Especially when anyone involved is shy, two people can go through a cycle with times of high interest, lots of flirting, and feeling like something will happen any day now, and times of low interest, nothing happening, and almost feeling like you don't care about them at all. It looks like you two were in a relatively high time and now you're in a low time. But still, the chemistry is there.
The easiest way to make someone feel more interested in you is to act more interested in them. So if you smile, wave, and say "Hello [Name]!" whenever you see him, he'll feel more interest in you than if you just pass him up silently. If you act happy to see him and make good conversation when he comes to talk to you and contrive to leave class at the same time and talk as you walk through the door, he'll be thinking of the stuff you say. And when you act more interested in him, he'll do the same for you.
This whole thing kind of rests on the idea that the two of you have stuff in common--ideas, experiences, preferences. You used to joke around and you still talk sometimes, which makes it seem like you do. And obviously you're in the same class, which means at least something and could mean a lot. Don't worry if it seems like you don't have a lot in common--maybe you don't and you would have had a bad relationship; maybe you do and it just hasn't come to the surface yet. (Which is what happened with me and someone.) Soldier on and find out which!
This kind of thing can take years. If you're in it for a boyfriend, obviously this will be very frustrating. The typical high school relationship will be very frustrating. If you're in it less to get a boyfriend than for this particular person, because there's no one else like them and you want to know them, then it probably won't be.
