Default low battery

My battery will not turn engine over,just clicks.I can charge the battery and over night,same thing.So I charged battery,took negative cable off and the next morning it was fine.When I did put the cable on,there were small sparks meaning something was drawing from battery.Where do I start looking and how? 2008 F150 XL crew cab 4X4 5.4 engine.
