Some guys don't initiate first contact but i would be doing little bit more to let you know i was interested if i was the guy , I think he seems to be lacking a little bit so maybe you need to just give him a few text message telling him you wish he would let you know if he wants more than friendship with you.
Sounds like too young to know what he wants or what to do. Or he just thinks of you as a pal or buddy. Sometimes guys just aren't ready to be men 'till they really are. And why a lot of young women find it more satisfying to date older men. They are more mature and know how to be a man. They know what they want, and if they're interested in a woman it's because they want to bed her. Otherwise, what's the point? If that's not what you want then chum around with your pally teeny-bops.
I'm mean be aggressive. its seems like he like and don't believe in the friend zone because I have females call best friend ( like I'm a gay dude, jokingly, because I'm nowhere close to a gay dude) and we hooking up a week later. that may not be your case but you just got to say something.
He's probably just shy because he probably doesn't know you want to be more than friends maybe give him a sign that you might want more than that. Thank you for the invite (:
jokes are often used to mask true feelings an desires. if he jokes about you two being together you should really have a serious talk about it with him.
Although it's expected that guys that are interested will iniciate contact, many won't for many reasons. The point is you can't tell if he's interested or not just from the fact he doesn't initiate
He seems interested in you. I call the girl I like "Pal" all the time. She thinks its cute. Just go with it, and everything will turn out OK. But if he starts acting stranger than he normally does, ask him whats wrong.
if he's a nice and close as he sounds he may just be a little hesitant on pushing things between y'all because he doesn't want to ruin how close you guys are.
While it sounds like your assessment of reaching the friend-zone may be true - that doesn't mean pursuing a relationship is a waste of time necessarily.

Ask why he jokes about you guys hooking up. Put the spotlight on the subject.
Then when he asks why, say, "Just curious. Sometimes you sound serious but it's like you're too shy to really ask"
You two are putting each other in the friendzone because you're both afraid
what do I do? I dont want to screw up a friendship that means a lot to me
Either Risk it, or don't.

Nailed it 🎯

He just seems really laid back. I think you should be more assertive and do more flirting and touching yourself so he see you are interested.
He seems a bit xonfused about what he wants if anything. If he doesn't show his true intentions just move on I guess.

ask him if he really would consider being more than friends with all jokes aside and then go from there.
I'm guessing he's really shy and doesn't want to make a move, or can't. Hey pal was sort of a playful thing to say.
Responding to your update, it's common for guys to be shy, this is what I'm guessing he is
if he's a nice and close as he sounds he may just be a little hesitant on pushing things between y'all because he doesn't want to ruin how close you guys are.
he may just be having a hard time making a move and is trying to act ”normal”
he is trying to build a friends with benefits situation.. next will be oral sex
Don't overthink it. Just go and tell him your feelings.
Just talk to him. Then you will know without a doubt. If you two are close you should be able to talk about it.
I don't think he has friendzoned you I think he might just be shy. He seems to be kind of into you
