Keep Someone from Falling Asleep

Sometimes, you just can't have that one person fall asleep. Are you scared of being alone at night? Want them to be awake to talk to? Whatever the reason, we can help.

Steps

 * 1)  Be loud. Talk as loudly as you can, and add lots of special sound effects with the things nearby. Crack your gum, scream when something surprises you, laugh hysterically, cry noisily, and sniff and cough as loudly as you can. Be creative with your sound!
 * 2)  Keep the person on their toes.  Push them, bonk them in the head, or swipe your hand close to their face (enough to make them flinch.) When their eyes start to close, snap or clap your hands in their face. Trip them every once in a while to make them more alert. This method can be a little dangerous, so be careful.
 * 3)  Give them some energy food. Food and drinks with high sugar and caffeine levels are best, like soda, candy, coffee, etc. If you don't have any of those, spike some food or drink with sugar and make sure they eat it. This will help them stay awake.
 * 4)  Keep them busy. Nothing keeps a person awake like actually being interested in staying awake. Show them a TV show or movie. Excite them with new games or people. Keep moving them around, making them walk, to see everything there is to see.
 * 5)  When you've hit rock bottom, just beg them to stay awake. Tell them the truth on why you need them to be awake. Most likely, they will understand and try their hardest to not fall asleep. Only do this if you are really desperate, though.
