The visual was a masterclass in on-screen chemistry, featuring Taylor and Pierre in a series of intimate and emotionally charged scenes. It was immediately apparent to fans and critics alike that the connection between the two was far beyond a standard working relationship.

Following "Long Time," Pierre's involvement continued with the visual for "Bed of Roses." Taylor, who often directs her own videos under her moniker "Spike T," used the project to explore deeper themes of love, vulnerability, and artistic expression, with Pierre serving as her leading man and muse. This professional entanglement provided a safe space for their budding romance to grow, blurring the lines between their personal and creative lives.

During an appearance on the *Sherri* show, she affectionately referred to him as her "apple pie," her "honey bunches of oats," and her "cutie patootie," but insisted she wasn't ready for the "boyfriend" label. This refusal to adhere to traditional relationship terminology speaks to Taylor's desire to keep their dynamic authentic and free from external expectations, focusing on the security and emotional openness they share. She is "very secure" in what they have, which is more important than a title.
