I said that if someone watches this scene, solely this one, it seems like these two are two sad people, with feelings for each other, that are being separated due to a lot of reasons. That was just the visual effect of it and the way, the scene was shown. I meant, like solo this scene. The techniques used on the particular segment, are frequently used for these kind of scenes. {calm music, the close up, the not showing faces when they say goodbye}

Now, adding the "confirmation" coming from the booklet, cause we can't actually ignore this you guys, it adds another meaning. I am no claiming in any way, that Lelouch would do karaoke-love-songs-nights for Kallen, i do not.
But, taking into account the line "mutual kiss", this indicates that at least for that moment, Lelouch had/felt romantic feelings for Kallen. Even if it was for this moment.
I am not trying to be biased here or anything, i just point out something that is definitely there, coming from the staff as well.

@spring sakura: Kallen could not figure out the ZR by kissing Lelouch, i mean what? Does she have micro-chip-genius on her tongue that read people's minds? The kissing-scene, was about understanding her own feelings and his as well. {thought she understood his feelings a bit late but this is another discussion}
