My eyes itched and my stomach rumbled. I glanced at the clock. It's 8:30 already? I stretched, joints popping. I stood up out of my chair. My stomach grumbled again. Oh yeah. I have that cupcake. I'll eat that I guess. I waked downstairs to find my note still taped to the fridge. Strange, maybe he'll come overnight. I pulled the cupcake out of the fridge. This thing is huge, far to big to eat right now. I'll cut it in half. I grabbed a knife, chopping quickly though the cupcake. A liquid slowly began to ooze out. Strange, this cupcake doesn't have a filling. I lay the cupcake halves on their sides, cut up. The noticeably loose paper wrapping fell off. A circle was cut out of the base of the cake, the orange liquid still oozing. I smelled it, orange, medicine orange. I jogged upstairs and began to rummage through my medical kit. My fingers closed around a bottle. I brought it back down stairs. I popped the cap and smelled it, then the cupcake filling. Same sent. I looked at the bottles label. "Fast acting sleep aid, now in outrageous orange?!" He tried to drug me? How lame of an attempt. I placed the cupcake on top of his box of cake pieces. This needs a note... I grabbed a sticky note. "Nice try. :)" I stuck it to the box. Well now I need something to eat. Cake cubes. I'll eat cake cubes. I pulled my box out and checked the latches. Untouched. Glad I chose the box with the temperamental latch. I opened it and pulled out a cube. I was about to take a bite when I noticed a white powder stuck in the icing. He knows how to close the stubborn box. I scanned the room, a misplaced pill bottle catching my eye. I stalked over to it. Melatonin capsules, full of a strikingly similar white dust. I sighed in annoyance. I put the cake back in its box. Sliding the box to the left of the fridge I grabbed another sticky note. "Why? >:'(" I was about to place it on the box of tainted cake when a plan began to form. I'll switch the boxes, to make the tainted ones look like his untouched ones. I pulled both boxes out, switching their lids to make his cubes have the bad lid my cubes originally had. I placed "his" back in the fridge with the cupcake/note combo on top of it. I then placed the other box next to it with my little note stuck to the front. Let's see what happens hm? I closed the fridge, and my stomach reminded me that I still haven't eaten. I pulled out a piece of bread, chucking it into the toaster. I got changed into pajamas as I waited. An obnoxious ding startled me. I ate my toast. I'm really tired. I'm gonna go to bed now. I walked upstairs and turned off the lights. Flopping into bed I fell asleep nearly instantly.
