It's still a bit too early to be asking that, but its been hinted that he still has feelings for Athena (maybe even Ruka judging from the flashback from the recent chapter.)

but I'm pretty certain this will all change and the girl whom Hayate "likes the most" would become more apparent by the time the series is nearing it's end.
