But no, I see your point Unnamed. However, animes tend to work in a funny way and personally I can see no reason why anyone but C.C. and Kallen would win this. C.C. probably wont because it seems to me like her presence is just due to her usefulness and due to her constant saving of Lelouch's life. Kallen isn't just there to be useful, Kallen is Lelouch's most important minion, one of his friends, one of the people that knows his identity, and someone he would like to keep around for as long as he can (he asked her to come back to Ashford with him when they were done with everything). Kallen has a more personal attachment than C.C., from what I see.
Shirley on the other hand only pops up from time to time, and while being important to Lelouch because she's a friend, doesn't personally know him in comparison to Kallen and C.C., doesn't spend much time with him, and has actually tried to kill him once before. I wouldn't date any woman who put me at gun point and was ACTUALLY going to kill me. C.C. has put him at gunpoint, but she wasn't actually going to kill him.

Well, I don't see how Sayoko making out with Shirley has anything to do with Kallen and some people see Kallen getting captured as the clincher for the relationship, since Lelou would then have to run around the world and tear down everything in his path to get her back and then they'll have a happy reunion where Kallen confesses the confused emotions she had while she was captured and then Lelou kisses her to calm her down. Kallen being captured is kind of like a high risk high reward road.
As for C.C., she actually has some things going for her. For example, as of now, only C.C. and Suzaku really know Lelou's motives for starting his whole rebellion. Lelouch doesn't really feel comfortable talking about more personal matters with Kallen, but there's still plenty of time.
In a sense, C.C. probably knows Lelouch better as of now, but like I said, that could change. The fact that Lelouch never thought of C.C. in his little "I'm doing this for everyone" at Ashford can be seen as both a good and bad sign. It can be seen as bad because he didn't consider her at all. However, if you twist that a bit, you can change it to he's gotten so used to C.C., that he's taking her for granted. Like he said, "happiness would most likely take the form of glass, because you don't really know it's there until it's gone".
As for Kallen, she's always trusted Lelouch/Zero. She was devastated when she learned his true identity at first, but then she began trying to understand him more. He at first followed Zero for the freedom of Japan, but when he found out Lelouch was Zero, she felt betrayed and Lelouch's "I used everyone" speech didn't really help. To still be able to trust Lelouch after that shows that she sees Lelouch as more than the one that can free Japan now.
As for Shirley, she really does only show up when the plot requires her to, but she has been able to give Lelouch some emotional reinforcement without either of them really realizing it, like in the latest episode and she was apart of his happy Ashford scanerio.
I'm keeping my mind open on all pairings for now, because honestly, although C.C. and Kallen probably have the better chance, Shirley may be able to pull something.
Hmm... I guess it's pretty apparent which pairing I support by now.
