December 11th 2023.
Carter Shepherd and John Paul McQueen had been growing closer in recent weeks, and in Monday night's episode of Hollyoaks, they finally succumbed to their desires and had sex in the toilets of The Dog in the Pond.
It was a moment of passion, but it was cut short when they realised that someone had overheard them. After all, Carter is a deeply religious man and headteacher of Hollyoaks High, and has been practising conversion therapy, which John Paul discovered and was horrified by.
The two had a heart-to-heart in which Carter revealed that he had been attracted to a male classmate when he was in school, but his father had ordered him to "turn away from sin", leading him onto the path of conversion therapy. John Paul urged him to be true to himself before the pair shared a passionate kiss, and eventually had sex in the gym.
Carter has since embarked on a relationship with Maxine Minniver, believing it to be the right thing to do, but he can't help but still feel attracted to John Paul. Freya Calder was hurt to discover her father's relationship with Maxine, and John Paul's efforts to comfort her backfired.
When the two men met in the toilets, Carter confronted John Paul, holding him up against the wall and ordering him to stay away. However, things quickly turned to passion, with the two engaging in a passionate kiss before making their way to a vacant cubicle.
Unfortunately, their moment of passion was overheard, leaving Carter beside himself with shock. Who could the eavesdropper be?
