Girls, what does it mean when she jokes about me liking her?

Anonymous
I've known this girl since High School and we became good friends but never really hung out much. After graduation, i started msging and texting her more but still never really hungout much until recently like the past 2 months or so. Now, we hangout a lot and due to some circumstances, i've really been the only person she hangs out with this much. The thing is though, she knows i like her. It may have been unclear in High School, but she definitely knows now, but the funny thing is, i haven't officially said a word nor do i bring it up.

I do like her, and would be ecstatic to go out with her, but she has rejected a lot of guys, some of which are closer to her than i am i think. I've just been telling myself that there is no point in officially coming out about my feelings for her if i know i'll be rejected. Cuz if i do, and do actually get rejected, that'll make things awkward between us considering how much we already hangout (Though this chrsitmas season, i will ask anyways). Though it's odd that she's low key making jokes about me liking her every now and then. Like yesterday, we were hanging out at our other friend house and i asked can we watch Girl Meets World cuz I'm obsessed with thay show (So funny). They eventually said no but she was like "Something something you know you wanna watch it cuz you like that Sabrina character" (The actress in the show that shares the same name "Sabrina" as her and overall looks in general) in an attempt to tease me Which flew over my head for several minutes after (Yeah, sometimes us boys can be oblivious :[ ).

I'm pretty sure she thinks in her mind that at some point i will come clean, but even if we're just friends atm and she may possibly not like me, why tease me about like her? I mean, i could understand if they're just jokes we have with each other after i would've asked her and hit rejected, but before is just... odd.
