Thank you to all the wonderful reviewers! So I was almost done writing this when guess what? Microsoft Word decided to hate me and go berserk and deleted everything I had written. Everything. And it was like over 2000 words! Let's put it this way: I was a little more than peeved!

Overprotective Much?
Usually Reid was used to getting some pretty word looks when he ran because he ran funny but now he didn't have time to pay attention to the looks people were giving him.
"I'm going to kill you!" Morgan shouted.
"It's not my fault!" Reid called back.
"How is it not your fault? You're dating my little sister!" Morgan yelled.
"It was a mutual thing!" Reid stated, trying to avoid a little old lady walking her dog.
"You're so dead!" Morgan responded. Reid whipped out his phone and hit the speed dial.
"Hey Spence, what's up?" Desiree greeted him.
"Des! Call your brother! He's going to kill me!" Reid told her, panting.
"Why? Are you out of breath?" she asked.
"Yes, because your brother is chasing me!"
"He's officially lost his mind!" she said before hanging up. Reid looked back and noticed that he had lost Morgan. Not wanting to take any chances, he ran into the nearest store: Victoria's Secret.
Morgan, meanwhile, was looking everywhere but couldn't find Reid. He searched until his phone started to buzz. "What the-" he trailed off before picking up.
"Derek Anthony Morgan! You quit chasing my boyfriend this instant!" Desiree stated. Derek cringed. As overprotective as his was, his sister had really developed a short temper with him. And it took just one word for Derek to dread her wrath.
"Give me one good reason!" Derek challenged.
"Because I'm happy! Shouldn't that be enough? This is probably the best relationship I have ever been in. Can't you just be happy that I'm happy? And if you keep threatening Spencer, I will never forgive you as long as I live" she told him. Gosh darn in, his sisters always had a way to get to his heart.
"That's a good enough reason for me. I love you Desiree. See you tonight." Derek said, relenting.
"I'll see you and Spencer tonight. If Spencer's still alive…." She muttered before hanging up. It was then that Morgan spotted Reid in Victoria's Secret, looking a tad bit nervous.
"You better not be doing what I think you're doing!" Morgan muttered, tramping into the store and receiving some bewildered looks.
"Derek! It's not what you think! I just ran in here to get away from you!" Reid explained quickly.
"That better be the truth! Because if I find out you're buying this… crap for my little sister, I will kill you with my bare hands!" Morgan stated.
"I do not doubt that one bit. Honestly, I just came in here to lose you" Reid said. Morgan got a good look at the kid. He looked pale and nervous so Derek relented.
"Ok kid, I believe you. Truce?" Morgan hoped. That truce isn't going to last long. He's going to kill me when he finds out I went to Chicago, Reid thought.
"Sure" Reid agreed, nodding.
/Reid and Desiree/
Reid came rushing into Olive Garden. He was running late because Hotch had wanted to talk to him after work.
"I am so sorry I'm late. Things ran late at work." Reid said, sitting down at the Morgan's table.
"That's fine. I heard about Derek chasing you, and I would like to apologize on my son's behalf." Fran said.
"That not necessary, Fran." Reid laughed.
"Actually man, I'm really sorry. I shouldn't have charged after you like that. I guess I'm just overprotective." Derek admitted.
"You think?" Sarah voiced.
"Gee what gave you that idea?" Desiree added.
"Remember the team a boy asked Sarah to prom? I thought you were going to murder the poor boy." Fran laughed.
"Thank you guys for all the reminders. Anyway, Reid, I just want you to know that I am sorry and you have my full permission to date my sister." Derek replied.
"Whoa, what changed your mind?" Reid questioned.
"Something my little sister said." Derek answered before putting winking at Desiree and raising his glass. "To the happy couple!"
A/N: So it's a tad bit short but after writing that 2000 word version which got deleted I was mad and didn't feel like typing. That and I have to get in the shower. Darn Microsoft Word!
Love, Sarah
