I'm sure we will get a better idea for Kouichi's feelings about Mao once the latter confesses to him. While it's obvious to us that Mao likes/loves him aside from the forehead kiss she's pretty much given him nothing to work off and she always brings Hoshino up as well.
Also I doubt you have to worry about that light novel ending being used, golthin already mentioned other media have different endings and also

As for what you spoiler tagged comment... the moment... I would say yes and no... the story isn't really complete since the manga has gone quite a long way past it, I would say more but I don't want to spoil such a fantastic show.
