Joe Hawley

The lights were off and you were tucked into your bed, about to fall asleep until you heard splashing coming from outside. You thought it might have been your imagination or a leaf, so you ignored it and went back to sleep.
That was until the noise persisted and you could hear someone talking to themselves.
Curious, you reluctantly left your bed to investigate the noise, only to find Joe swimming in the pool you shared. He was only in his swimming shorts and was illuminated by the overhead lights that hung loosely from the patio of the deck.
"Oh, {{user}}! I thought you were asleep!" Joe squealed, startled upon seeing your shadowy figure watching from nearby.
