A new chapter, hooray! I've actually been holding onto this one for awhile just until I had more written. And trust me, there is more written. I'll probably end up making another post tonight, just because I want to give you all more to enjoy. But yea, this one is taking a bit longer to put together, probably because at the moment there is no clear direction. But never fear, I shall continue with it and see where the blasted muses lead me. Enjoy!
Elena groaned as she rolled over. Light streamed in through her blinds, causing an instant headache.
"Reno, I'm going to kill you," she said as she covered her eyes. She slowly sat up, willing her head to stop pounding "This sucks," she whimpered. After a moment, Elena lowered her hand and blinked quickly, allowing her eyes to adjust to the sun. She looked around at the mess of her room, taking in her half dressed state in the tangled mess of her large white comforter.
"At least he got me in my bed," she murmured as she through the comforter off and waddled out of bed. She stumbled to the door of her room and pulled it open.
"Oh, coffee, how I need thee," she said, stumbling into her kitchen.
"Could you make me a cup while you're at it," a voice grumbled from the couch. Elena jumped and screamed as a disheveled Reno sat up, rubbing his eyes.
"Reno! What are you doing here!" Elena shouted, forgetting her hangover for the moment. Reno grabbed his head and groaned.
"Ow, not so loud," he moaned. "My head hurts and you'll wake up Tseng." Elena's eyes narrow as she walked around the couch and saw another figure sprawled out on the floor of her apartment.
"What are you doing in my apartment!" she shouted again, this time successfully waking up Tseng.
"Not so loud," he groaned as he slowly sat up. Elena looked back and forth between the two, unsure of what to say.
"Do you always walk around half naked?" Reno asked from the couch, breaking the silence. Elena's eyes widened as she looked down and noticed her white button up shirt was completely undone, revealing her lacy white bra. She quickly pulled it closed and glared.
"That's it. Both of you. Out. Now," she said. Tseng pulled himself off the floor as regally as he possibly could, and still managed to nearly tumble over as Reno hopped to his feet with a goofy grin.
"Good to see you'll not feeling the side effects of the patron," he said sarcastically. Elena rolled her eyes and walked to the door of her apartment. She opened it and held it open, waiting for her two "guests" to leave. Tseng nodded and walked out, smoothing his long black hair as he went. Elena shook her head, still not quite believing that her boss was passed out on the floor of her apartment. Reno grinned as he walked towards the door.
"May the best man win," he said as he wandered out the door. Elena watched him, confused.
"What?" she asked. Reno stopped and turned to face her as he walked backwards down the hallway.
"You don't remember? What a shame. Makes it more fun for me!" he shouted as he pressed the elevator button. Elena noticed that Tseng had opted to take the stairs, which was probably a good idea. She didn't want to even think about what Tseng with a hangover would do to an annoyingly hung-over Reno when trapped in the confines of an elevator.
"Would you speak English?" she asked as the elevator doors slid open.
"Nope, I think I'm just going to let you slowly put the pieces together," he said with a smile as he disappeared into the elevator. Elena rolled her eyes and closed the door.
"This is not good," she murmured as her headache decided to remind her it was there.
