thats crazy

i dont think you have a fuel leak because honestly ur car would probably blow up when driving if it gets hot enough.

maybe your gas cap isnt on correctly and its evaporating(doubtful since its not warm out) or someone siphoned it

it could be a electrical problem that your injector is running when the car is off and could be flooding the cylinders. how did it sound when it started? notice any black smoke out the exhaust?

If you flood your plugs, the car won't start.
And you can't evaporate 10 gallons of gas in 2 days.
