Get on someone's nerves, training the night before (5)

I believe the answer is:

peeve

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'get on someone's nerves' is the definition.
'peeve' can be an answer for 'get' (thesaurus). I am not certain of the 'on someone's nerves' bit.

'training the night before' is the wordplay.
'training' becomes 'pe'.
'the night before' becomes 'eve' (I've seen this before).
'pe'+'eve'='PEEVE'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for peeve that I've seen before include "Cause resentment" , "cause irritation" , "bug" , "grouse" , "Intensely annoy" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
