Noor:

            I woke up with the sweet taste of chocolate in my mouth, mixed with bad morning breath.  It was an odd mixture of flavors.  I sat up in bed and stretched, smelling cologne.  Wondering where it was coming from, I looked around until I spotted an unfamiliar black coat resting over me.  I looked at it for a moment, confused.  Then it all hit me, yesterday, my sugar rush, the dance, the chandeliers.  Drew.  This was his coat resting on top of me, I now remembered, he had wrapped it around me when we went outside.  I remembered how embarrassingly I had behaved, but I could easily blame it on the sugar.  In fact, it was the sugar’s fault, not mine.  I just couldn’t seem to control myself whenever I had something sweet. 

            “Noor?  About time you woke up,” Sophia said, coming into the room.  I hugged Drew’s coat to my face, taking in the overwhelming smell of the cologne.

            “Yeah. What happened last night?” I asked, just to make sure that I hadn’t forgotten any super embarrassing things that I had done. Sophia smirked.

            “Well, you had a huge sugar rush, even though Luke warned you not to eat so much chocolate, and then you went with Drew to the dance, and then Drake tried to kill you, and then you passed out.” she said.

            “Wait, Drake tried to... oh! He did! Oh my gosh!!!” I exclaimed, jumping out of bed and went to my closet to search for clothes to wear today. “Is Drew okay?”

            “Of course that's the first thing you ask,” Sophia said, smirking.

            “Just answer the question!” I said, my voice muffled from being in my closet.

            “He’s fine,” Sophia said.  I let out a sigh of relief, but still hurriedly looked through my closet. 

            “I still wanna go check on him, say sorry for being crazy last night, you know,” I said, remembering my state of mind when “What Makes You Beautiful” came on.

            “Yeah, that would be a good idea. Even though this was one of your less crazy sugar rushes, it was still pretty crazy,” Sophia said, laughing.

            “You know, I feel like eating a chocolate right now..” I said, grabbing a random shirt and popping out of my closet. Sophia looked horrified.

            “No!” she yelled. I ran past her out the door and to the kitchen, laughing madly.

            “I WILL GET THE CHOCOLATE!” I yelled like a maniac.

            “NOOR! COME BACK HERE!” Sophia yelled, chasing me.

            “MWAHAHAHAHAHAH! I HAVE THEM!” I said, grabbing the box and running out the door. Unfortunately, I slammed right into Drew’s chest.

            “Ow,” I muttered, rubbing my nose. Drew looked confused then noticed the box of chocolate in my hand.

            “Oh no. Not again,” he said, snatching the box from me.

            “Drew!” I whined, jumping up to try to get it. He held it high up out of my reach.

            “Thanks,” Sophia said. She didn't really like him, but he had just saved her from dealing with a hyper me all day. Again. So I could kind of understand why she was being nice to him.
