One night too many

Hi! This is my first post, I hope it goes well!

Reviews are welcome and encouraged….so yah! Enjoy

…...

"Hey pretty boy, wanna finish up some files for me?" Reid simply looked up at Morgan with an un-amused glance. "Considering I have about 15 other files on my desk…no" "Ah come on Reid, I want to go home and relax for the weekend" "And what makes you think I don't?" Reid asked. "Cause we all know you've got no life!"

"Give him a break, we all want to go home" said Emily with hints of amusement in her voice.

"Well, maybe we'll get the chance soon" said JJ, It's not like they can keep us here the whole night….can they?" And almost as if on cue, Garcia came running down the hall

"Everyone needs to get their workaholic butts in my office pronto!" yelled Garcia. And as soon as she said that she ran back into her office.

Hotch and Rossi slowly came out of their offices while giving each other, and then the team a questioning look.

"Don't ask me" Morgan said with his hands up, "I do not know, nor do I wish to know the interworking of Penelope Garcia's mind"

With that, the team walked down the hall to Garcia's office/cave to see what she had gotten so excited over.

Grabbing the door knob, Hotch mumbled something under his breath that sounded like "this better be good", and pushed the already ajar door open.

As the team crammed into the small office, they all realized that all of the screens were on either a local or national weather station.

"Snow storm of the century is what locals are calling it." Said the warmly dressed weather reporter. "Snow began falling in Northern Virginia around 2:30 this morning and has only escalated since that time. We are advising winter weather warnings and police are blocking off most roads because of ice related accidents. So please stay in your area, we will have more reports soon."

"Great" said Rossi, now I actually have to stay at work all night….maybe it's a sign… I knew I shouldn't have slipped Reid those extra four files…"

"What!" exclaimed Reid, "I knew I had a few too many, but I assumed it was Morgan and…oh….oops…."

"What did you do Reid?" asked a nervous Derek Morgan. "Well see, I thought you had slipped me extra case files…so I kind of…."

"Reid" Said Morgan, who was becoming more nervous by the second.

"Well your phone was on your desk just sitting there….so I picked it up and…well….I called the girl you said you met at the bar…what was her name?" "ANGELA!" exclaimed Morgan. "Yah! That was it, Angela. Well anyway, I called her and told her all about your…umm….boyfriend…."

"MY WHAT!" yelled an equally shocked and upset Morgan. By now the whole team, who was at least snickering at the story, now broke out into full on laughter. Even Morgan cracked a smile. "Well I guess I won't be hearing from her anymore."

"Wow Reid, if I had known that you would do that to Morgan I would have slipped you a few of my files." Said a laughing Prentiss. All of the women nodded in agreement.

After the laughter and joking died down, the team realized their compromising situation. "Ok" said Hotch, "So we are all obviously going to have to stay here for at least one night."

"At least?" Morgan interrupted.

"Yes, well considering it is Friday and the staff does not come back until Monday…" started Hotch. "We can only hope that the snow will melt enough to get home by tomorrow." Ended Rossi.

A chorus of groans came from the team. "You mean my weekend is gone!" exclaimed Prentiss. "Ok, I have to call Will to tell him" said JJ. "And I have to call my sister-in-law" moaned Hotch. "I'll need to call Angela….oh wait! No I won't thanks to my dear friend over here." "Oh calm down Morgan, it's not like you were going to actually date her, you told me she was a one night stand." Said Reid. "Well I guess it doesn't matter now…" it began to grow loud from all of the talking and phone ringing and….

"STOP!" all of the agents turned to see who had yelled. "You guys are all such downers!" said Garcia. "We need to look at this like a positive situation." She said brightly.

"And how might we do that baby girl?" Morgan asked in a skeptical tone.

"Just think of it like a sleepover!"

"NO!" all of the guys chorused at once, while the girls sat there silently weighing the suggestion.

"Come on it'll be fun! We would play games, and raid the workroom, and give Reid girl advice…" "What!" exclaimed Reid. "Oh come on honey" said Garcia "You know you need it" "As a matter of fact I don't…"

"Reid" said Hotch stopping Reid in mid-sentence, which Reid returned with an innocent look. "Ok guys" said Hotch taking control "Penelope might be right…this could be good for us. We were going to have to go on a team retreat anyway…so why not now?"

"He might be right" said JJ, "After everything that's gone on, it would be good for all of us to reconnect again."

"I agree with JJ" said Prentiss. "And I agree with Hotch and the girls too!" said the brightly colored tech.

The other men just looked at each other and finally Rossi said "I guess it makes since, I'd rather do it here than give up another weekend to go to some hotel and do trust fall exercises."

"Yah…I guess it'll do. Plus there is nothing better to do, cause trust me, when I say I am not working on case files over the weekend, even if I am in the office.

The agents then looked to the final member of the team who had taken an interest with his shoes. Reid looked up when he saw them all staring at him. "Well…it's not like I have choice is it?" he said with a lopsided, yet reluctant smile.

"Nope! Exclaimed Garcia. "So it's settled then" said Hotch, "meet on the floor in about 10 minutes and we'll get started. For now…just go raid the snack drawer or the workroom or something."

And with that the girls all ran off to get snacks while Rossi and Hotch walked over to close up their computers, leaving Reid and Morgan talking.

"Well, said Morgan…I guess we are in the total control of our team (mainly Garcia) until we can get out of here. But who knows, it might be fun" and to that comment both Reid and Morgan looked at each other and burst out into laughter. Each knowing full well that this would be a long night.

End of Chapter 1!
