No, he wasn't going to get much sleep thanks to a certain fourth year and her rat.
He threw the covers back with a grunt and after cleaning up the mess Ash had left, grabbed his blanket and stomped down into the common room.
His stomach was growling, calling for its 2am feeding and Drew opened the small cupboard by the sofa to dig out a cookie from his stash. After years of getting busted for sneaking down to the kitchens in the pre-dawn hours, he had finally gotten into the habit of saving an extra tidbit from dinner to get him through until morning. On a few occasions one of the house elves had tossed his snacks, but most of the time, they were right where he had left them.
He wrapped his blanket around his shoulders and slumpped into his favorite chair, staring at the dying fire as he ate his cookie.

Ash's late night/early morning romp had woken more than just Drew. Arianna had just been falling back to sleep after a trip to the loo when the other girl had returned. She might not have meant to, but even the slightest bit of noise made as Ash got into bed was not helping Arianna any. And so she packed up her pillow and blanket and headed downstairs, carrying a sleepy Juni in her arms (the odd little kitty actually slept at night D=).
What Arianna didn't expect to see in the common room that early in the morning, though, was a grumpy Drew. In fact, she didn't even notice him as she went directly to the couch and tossed her pillow upon it. With a little bit of a struggle she pulled her blanket around her with her free hand and eased onto the sofa, snuggling Juni in her arms.

Ash awoke groggily from ten minutes worth of sleep, the most she'd gotten all night. Her butt and boobs were slowly deflating by themselves although they weren't going fast enough! It was either that, that had kept her awake or stream of thoughts and worries running through her mind. Is there going to be left over skin when they're done deflating? Stretch marks perhaps? Ughh, this is bad. I'm getting uglier and uglier everyday! She bit her lip and sqeezed her teddy bear, in worry. People always said how she wasn't as pretty as her sister or something negative like that. Ivy had even said that she was fat!
Ash moaned, not able to getting any sleep and all and trudged to the common room with her teddy bear that she had cleaned earlier. Moaning again, she let herself fall on the couch, not knowing that Arianna had been on it. She was too tired to notice anything. She gave a small scream as she slammed into the poor girl- jumping up quickly and tossing her bear to who knows where.

Drew saw Ari stumble down the steps and collapse onto the couch. He was about to say something but figured she needed sleep as much as he did, so he continued eating his cookie without saying a word.
But when Ash came down as well, he smirked a little. She was looking decidingly plumper and he felt a little guilty about that, but reminded himself that she had deserved it for going into the boys room in the first place. He was just about to offer her a cooie when she sat directly on Ari.
It was probably a good thing he hadn't gotten the offer out. She probably wouldn't be very keen on accepting desserts until her butt had gotten back to normal size.

Ash fell the the floor, " I'm sorry..." she mumbled miserably and hit herself with a pillow. She didn't know what she was doing, lying on the floor with a pillow on her face. Ash could feel the deep bags weighing on her eyes. She needed shut-eye but she couldn't get any for some reason. She growled to herself as she pulled her hair in frustration, " Just go away already..." Ash moaned. She was talking about her butt and boobs although she didn't exactly specify that.
She threw the pillow in the air, groaning. She needed a sleeping potion at this rate.

If the girl sitting on her didn't wake her up, the proceeding events certainly would. As it was, the plopping upon her stomach just as she was about to fall asleep caused Arianna to puff out an, "Oomph!" Next thing she knew, Juni was awake, clawing at her arms and face in an effort to get away from whatever danger the expanded housemate might be.
"What the...?" Arianna cried out, sitting up suddenly, one eye reddening from the claw that had poked at it less then a second earlier before scraping half-way down her cheek. Arianna's good eye fell upon the other girl and narrowed as Ash mumbled about going away.
"Why don't YOU go away?" the older Raven spat, chucking her pillow at Ash. What was she trying to do? Keep Arianna from getting any sleep at all tonight? Did she follow her down into the common room just for that very purpose? Arianna might even have to brave the boy's dorm's trap just to get to sleep.

"How about we all chill out a little," Drew answered, rubbing at his face sleepily. With Ari yelling and Ash looking like she was ready to cry and Juni howling the injustices of being sat on, it didn't look like he'd be getting any sleep down in the common room either.

Ash was shocked when the pillow was suddenly chucked at her face. Well...I guess I deserved that... She sat up, knowing that she would never get any sleep today. She glanced over at the chair that Drew was in, she hadn't noticed him until he spoke up. That boy seemed to be everywhere lately- the boys dorm, the sommon room. It was like there were mutiple sets of him or something.
"Do we have classes today?" she asked them through a grumble. Ash wiped away the crusties in her eyes and glared at Juni. How she hated cats.

Arianna grumbled something under her breath. Drew hadn't been the one woken up by Ash's late-night...whatever she'd been doing (so Ari thought) so he didn't have a say in whether Arianna chucked her pillow at the fourth year. She was too tired to bother with either of them and now Juni needed to be coaxed out from behind the bookcase.
Ignoring Ash's question, Arianna forced herself grudgingly from the couch and stumbled to the bookcase. After a receiving a few more scratches, she finally got the frazzled-looking cat out.

Drew rolled his eyes and shook his head at Arianna. He didn't know why she was all mad at him (he was POSITIVE he hadn't done anything this time... okay, well maybe not positive, but definitely 87% sure...) but it was obvious she was directing at least some of her anger towards him.
"Dunno about fourth years, but last I checked, the rest of us do," Drew answered Ash a little more sarcastically than he had originally meant to. Otherwise, he wouldn't really care about getting to sleep.

Ash looked around her, why was everyone hating so much? She was tired but she wasn't moody or anything. Sighing, she took Arianna's place on the couch, assuming that she wasn't coming back. She knew that she had class today although was almost praying that she didn't. Ash needed to get some sleep before the morning began but she doubted her plan would work.
She growled, hearing every crunching noise that came from Drew and his cookies. " You eat loudly." she commented.

Coming back to the couch with Juni in her arms, Arianna gave a loud sigh. Ash had taken her place, which was very rude in Arianna's opinion. Besides, her blanket was still there.
"Doesn't EVERYone have class tomorrow?" she questioned as she plopped down as far from Ash as possible on the couch. Sheesh, the girl could've at least taken this end instead of Arianna's.

Drew almost countered with a fat comment, but decided that might be hitting below the belt.
Instead he just looked at her with an eyebrow raised. "You want to talk to me about being loud?" he asked.

"I was asking about today not tomorrow, Arianna." she said staring at the raggy face of Mr. Pink. He had been with her as long as she could remember-- her mother said that she had been born with the teddy bear. He felt as scratchy as carpet although she liked that about him, he was small but fit right into her arms, perfectly. Most people made fun of Ash for still sleeping with a teddy bear but she didn't care, she couldn't sleep without him.
Ash didn't feel like her comment had been offensive at all but most others would have. She rolled her eyes to the ceiling, seeing that she couldn't get a wink of sleep. It was a waste to try.
She glanced at Drew after he had asked her a question. She had heard him correctly but decided to play dumb, " What was that, Drew?" she asked with a sweet smile.

"Today is tomorrow," Drew grumbled with another eye roll at the girls. Yep, even with the lingering smell of Swelling solution in the air, the boys dorm would still be easier to sleep in.
"What, now you can't hear me properly? What happened to those super-sensitive ears of yours?" It was funny how it was only him that she found noisy.
