Hello again, everyone! I'm back with the fifth installment of my "Ways To Annoy People" series! To recap your memories, Penelope pulled some pranks on an airplane. Emily Prentiss pulled some pranks in the movie theater, with some help from Clyde Easter. Aaron Hotchner pulled some pranks at the beach while on vacation, with some help from his son, Jack. And Spencer Reid pulled some pranks while in the elevator. And now, in this upcoming story, we have Derek Morgan pulling some pranks at various drive throughs in his hometown of Chicago, Illinois. I hope you like this.
Disclaimer: I only own the name of the restaurant and the name person who works at the restaurant in this chapter. The Morgan family in this chapter, belongs to Criminal Minds/CBS.

It was 11:45 pm and Derek Morgan sat on the couch in the living room of his mother's home. Sitting next to and resting her head on his shoulder, was his little sister, Desiree. The two of them were watching a movie on television. Their mother, Fran and older sister, Sarah, were already sleeping. Morgan stood up and said, "I'm getting kind of hungry. You want to go get something to eat?"
"I want something to eat, but I don't feel like getting up and going somewhere. You can go and bring me something back." Desiree answered.
"Is there a certain food that you want?" Morgan asked.
"Um… Just surprise me."
"Okay, but if I bring you back something that you don't like, then don't blame me for it." Morgan smiled, but ducked quickly as Desiree playfully sent a pillow flying towards him.
"That almost hit me. Now what would mom say if she caught you, throwing her good couch pillows at her favorite child?" Morgan playfully asked.
"You better go get the food or I'm throwing the remote at you." Desiree playfully said.
Holding his hands up in defense and backing away, Morgan playfully said, "Okay, okay. I'm going."
It was a few minutes after midnight when Morgan pulled into the drive through of a fast food restaurant called "Clementine's Grill." He waited patiently behind a few cars. When he finally drove up to the menu, the voice on the intercom came through and said, "Hi, Welcome to "Clementine's Grill", what would you like to order?"
"Am I too early for breakfast?" Morgan asked.
There was a moment of silence as Morgan smiled to himself and waited for an answer. He wished he could have seen the look on the order taker's face when the question was asked. Finally, the order taker spoke.
"I'm sorry sir, but we don't serve breakfast until 7:15 in the morning."
"Oh man. I don't know what I'm going to tell my little sister, now. She was really craving one of your breakfast pizzas. When she doesn't get what she wants, she throws the biggest temper tantrums. Trust me, you do not want to see her when she's angry. She's not a very pretty sight." Morgan explained.
"Oh, I'm sorry to hear that, sir." There was a hint of nervous laughter in the order taker's voice.
"No need to apologize. She'll get over it, eventually."
Morgan returned to the house at around 12:15, carrying in two bags of food. For Desiree, he ordered Fish sticks with coleslaw and a soda and for himself, he ordered a cheeseburger with French fries and a soda. He entered the living room with the two bags and found his little sister, still sitting on the couch, flipping through the channels.
"Our late night snack has arrived." Derek smiled as he handed a bag of food to little sister.
Desiree pulled the food out of the bag and saw what Morgan had ordered for her. "Oh! Fish sticks and coleslaw! My favorite! Thanks, Derek!"
"You're very welcome."
End of chapter one. Please let me know what you thought. I want to see some reviews. Chapter two will be up, soon.
