Naturally, Ren was an organized person. Most of the time, her apartment was clean and organized but today? Oddly enough, that Saturday wasn't the case. Sitting square in the center of the "living room" had been a large canvas, and scattered all around it were various art supplies and paper to boot. Curled up in a ball on the couch in the midst of all that chaos? Ren. For some unfathomable reason, she felt the need to stay up until sunrise, which in turn caused her to sleep through most of the day. When she finally woke up, it was by the sound of her phone rather than on her own, and before she could wake up she found herself rushing out the door to head out to the diner. That was at nearly two o'clock in the afternoon. Just as five o'clock rolled around, she finally made it out of there. By the time she made it back to her apartment, cleaned everything up and stored it away accordingly, it was six fifteen. At that point, time was of the essence because there was no way that she was going to back out on her plans for the night.

Unsure whether or not they decided on seven or seven-thirty-ish, Ren decided to take her chances and hurry up as though she and Nate decided on seven. While Ren wasn't the sort of girl that took centuries to get pulled together, she actually wanted to take the time and make herself look more decent than usual. Also, smelling like fryer grease and bacon wasn't going to help that cause, which is why she jumped in the shower. That took most of her time and seven o'clock crept up on her all of a sudden. Even though it was an oxy-moron, she considered herself to be hurrying while taking the time to find right thing to wear. Eventually, when she found herself getting fed-up with that girlish nonsense, she decided to hell with it, grabbed whatever clothes were closest to her and then slapped them on. To her surprise, her impatience seemed to make a rather nice outfit. Unfortunately, getting dressed seemed to be only half of the equation to getting ready. There was still her hair that needed to be... managed and a face that needed to be slapped on. While, she couldn't deny that all of this was definitely unlike her, there was a small part that enjoyed going through the hassle of looking good. There was only reason as to why, but admitting to the fact that she enjoyed getting dolled up was one too many revelations for the evening.

Knowing very good and well that she was pressed for time, Ren decided to hell with that too and stopped checking the clock every so often. What was the point of looking good if she was just going to hurry? Yeah, there was the whole point that maybe she would end up making her guest wait, which was rude but here was to hoping that Nate would find it in his heart to forgive her. If not? Well then, damn.
