February 13 2023 - Hollyoaks - James & Ste

It's Valentines' Day and at the start of the day James and Ste are in no mood to celebrate. James goes to see Ste and apologises for yesterday's behaviour. After an unsuccessful attempt to help fix the broken shower, Ste is honest with James about how he's feeling about them and what he needs from James. They're interupted mid conversation by the plumber arriving and while Ste is distracted, James leaves without saying goodbye.
Ste takes that as a sign that James doesn't want to fix things between them and later at the Valentines party at The Dog is in no mood for James, when he turns up and tries to talk to Ste. Ste is about to leave so James grabs the mic and tells Ste he's trying to propose. That stops Ste in his tracks, and James proceeds to tell Ste exactly how he feels, then gets down on one knee and asks Ste to marry him. Ste says yes, puts the ring on and they happily kiss.
