The New Girl (Fairy Tail Fanfic):
Chapter 15: Treasure Hunt

Elaine's POV —

The front door creaked open, pulling me out of the warm, blissful haze of sleep before I even had a chance to fully wake up. I groaned and buried my head deeper into the pillow, hoping whoever was responsible for the sudden intrusion would just go away.

No such luck.

"WAKE UP, SLEEPYHEAD!" boomed a voice that was far too energetic for this hour.

"UWAH!!" I yelped, jolting out of bed and crashing unceremoniously onto the floor with a hard thud. My blanket tangled around me like a trap.

"Morning, Elaine!!" The high-pitched voice rang in my ears.

Groaning, I rubbed my eyes, trying to make sense of the blurry figure in front of me. "Who...?"

The small, blue blur slowly came into focus.

"Happy?" I mumbled, still half-asleep.

"Hey! Don't forget about me!" a familiar voice chirped. I blinked, and sure enough, there stood Natsu, grinning like an idiot.

"Natsu?! What are you doing here?" I shot upright, suddenly very awake.

"I'm not the only one!" He stepped aside, revealing Lucy and Erza behind him.

"You guys too?! Wh-why are you in my apartment?!" I looked around frantically, suddenly very aware of my pajamas. "In the morning!?"

"Well, someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed," Erza commented dryly, crossing her arms as she surveyed the chaotic scene.

The four of them exchanged glances before bursting into laughter.

"HAHAHA! GET IT? SHE ACTUALLY FELL OFF THE BED!" Natsu was practically doubled over in amusement.

"HAHAHAHA!!" Erza, Lucy, and Happy chimed in.

"Ha ha, very funny," I muttered as I clambered back onto my feet, brushing myself off. "Now get out of my room. I've got to change."

"Alright! To the fridge!" Natsu shouted, bolting for the kitchen like it was his own.

I winced as I heard the sound of cabinets banging and glass clattering. "Don't break anything!" Erza barked after him, marching out with Lucy and Happy following close behind.

I groaned again, rubbing my temples like the tired teenager I was. "What did I ever do to deserve this?"

After running a comb through my messy hair and splashing cold water on my face, I dragged myself downstairs. By the time I got to the kitchen, Erza had donned an apron—because of course she had—and was standing at the stove, spatula in hand.
