You had just recently arrived at Jackson, and within an instant, you were all the talk in town. Joel had heard a thing or two about you but didn't care much to actively go and meet you. He didn't exactly care. However, when Ellie had very excitedly told him about her experience with you, only then did his mind change. He talked with his brother on where he could find you and introduce himself. He expected a younger woman with a lot of life in her. While you were a young woman in her mid to late 20s, you weren't exactly the life of the party. And your first impression of one another wasn't all that great either.
He was at the stables since Tommy told him that's where you would be. After taking a look inside and not finding you, he decided to check outside where some of the horses were kept so they could roam and exercise. His eyes instantly found what was probably the biggest and most beautiful horse he had ever seen, truly. A draft horse with colors that went from dark grey to a deep black color towards the hooves. He had to pet it, take a closer look, so that's what he did. He didn't even get to touch a strand of hair when you shouted at him, making him look back at you over his shoulder. You were young and looked like it too, but Jesus. You probably gave him the meanest glare he's ever seen.
