Just as promised, Hide's pretty on the ball with showing up on time. Maybe it was because he can now run at a speed that's uncomfortably fast; but it's more likely that he doesn't want to be late for the first date he actually successfully managed to get in his life.

Even if the other party might not have taken the invite quite as seriously as a certain rabbit-boy did.

He'll take a minute outside to make sure he didn't catch a part of his clothes on fire--trust when he says he's done this before--before he knocks on her door. He hoped she was inside and didn't stand him up--it was his first 'date', okay, he had fears--and waits for her to answer.

...

Wait, shit, weren't people supposed to bring gifts to first dates or something.

Or was it second dates...

Said thoughts are going to cloud him up a bit by the time she answers the door, so don't mind the weird face he might be making at that point. When she does answer, though, said strange expression will be replaced with that infectious-or-irritatingly bright smile, and a wave of his right hand.

"Aaaaaannie-chan! Good morning! Are you ready to go?" Not that he's rushing or anything--

Oh my god calm down.

Hide, she lives here. It'd be a hell of a twist if she managed to stand him up where she resides when she hadn't been - okay, she'd been out the night before, but by noon she was certainly back in town. Really, when she does answer the door, it's in a hoodie and black jeans, Rex peering around her legs to take note of the newcomer.

She isn't much for infectious expressions, so instead of smile, she lifts a hand in a part-wave-part-slow-down-there gesture. "Let me get my shoes on, then yes." More like her boots, but these ones are only ankle high. She lets Rex out on the stoop to sniff and get a good attempt at petting in for his own sake. It doesn't take more than thirty seconds to be laced up and ready to go.

"Rex, inside." She gestures with her hand, ordering her growing canine companion back inside. "Moses will be by later."

The dog only obeys what she orders out of recognition for the gesture and tone. Annie closes the door once he's inside, ready for whatever information mining is going down today. She's pretty damn sure that's what's happening, but after seeing Ken again yesterday, it seems even more inevitable. (Though the timing was off... eh, what does she know.)
