Joe and Taylor had spent their night together, just the two of them and a bottle of whisky. They were both fairly drunk and couldn't stop laughing at random things. They'd been separated for a couple of weeks so it's been nice for the two of them to catch up like this. Taylor is currently giggling at something stupid Joe had just said and couldn't stop herself. 

"You're such an idiot!" She bursts out laughing and Joe joins her. After a while, they calm down and she looks at Joe to see that he's watching her.

"What?" She asks, raising her eyebrows. 

"You're just really pretty." Taylor feels her cheeks heat up and she looks down with a small smile on her face. She feels Joe grab her hand as he stands up, she looks up at him with a confused expression, her hand still in his. He tugs on it gently so she stands up with him.

"I just got an idea." He says with a mischievous glint in his eyes. Taylor shakes her head and laughs but allows him to lead her nevertheless. When he opens their backdoor she begins getting a bit confused

"Uhhh Joe? It's cold, why on earth are we going outside?" He looks back at her, a grin on his face as he continues leading her out the door. She feels the cool air hit her body the moment she exits the house and feels herself shiver. Joe stops just in front of their pool and Taylor looks at him, confused. Why would he bring her out here just to look at their pool. Seems a bit random. After a moment, he lets go of her hand before running towards the pool and jumping into it. Taylor's mouth drops open and when he reaches the surface she yells at him

"JOE! Are you insane?! It's like 0 degrees what are you thinking?!" Joe laughs, moving his wet hair out of his face and swimming backwards.

"It's really not that bad babe! Come on, join me!" 

"Oh hell no! It's freezing enough OUT of the water!" Joe looks at her with puppy dog eyes

"Please?" She stands there for a moment, not really sure why she's even considering it. She must really be drunk because before she realises it, her feet are running towards the water and she launches herself into the pool. She screams at the temperature.

"Fuck! It's so damn cold!" She exclaims and Joe laughs. moving towards her in the water, allowing her to wrap her legs around his waist. The water moves slightly around them and she puts her arms around his neck, holding tightly onto him and looking into his eyes. She presses her lips to his, kissing him gently as he moves them around in the water. Joe wipes the hair sticking to her face out of the way. She giggles sightly, feeling her body shivering from the cold but honestly she couldn't care less. God, she really can't imagine ever doing this with anyone else. But doing dumb stuff like this with Joe was something she secretly loves, it makes her feel normal. They float around for a while, giving each other gentle kisses before they both agree that it's too freezing to be in there any longer. They swim to the edge and climb out, Taylor immediately starts shivering violently and her teeth are chattering. Joe wraps an arm around her as they walk inside, dripping wet. He grabs a towel from a cupboard and wraps her up in it and she giggles as he does so.

"What a cute burrito you are!" He says, booping her nose before they both walk up the stairs and jump into a hot shower. Once they exit the bathroom and wrapped up in warm clothing, they both cuddle up on the couch together. Still slightly under the influence, but the cold water helped sober them both up a little. Taylor sighs contently in his arms and snuggles up against him while the TV plays some random show that's pretty much just providing background noise. She feels Joe press a kiss onto the top of her head.

"What're you thinking about?" He murmurs softly, twisting the ends of her hair gently around his fingers.

"How much I love you." She looks up at him and sees his smile which warms her heart.

"I love you too babe, so much." Taylor smiles up at him, before looking down at his hand draped over her waist. She grabs his hand, entwining their fingers together.

"You make me feel normal, and I can never express how grateful I am to you for that. You don't expect anything from me, you just let me be me. I really do love you, more than anything." She looks back up at him and sees tears glistening in his eyes. She leans up and kisses him softly. Taylor feels him tighten his grip around her body and she rests her head back on his chest, enjoying their closeness.

"God Taylor, you're so important to me. You have no idea." She smiles, knowing he's telling the truth. 

"If it's anywhere near as important as you are to me, I think I have some idea." She says softly, feeling her eyes begin to droop from exhaustion. There's no words exchanged after that, Taylor holds his hand tightly, his other arm firmly holding her close. As she falls asleep, all she can think about is how lucky she is to finally have someone love her as much as she loves him, someone who brings normalcy to her life and makes her feel like a human being.
