Spencer Reid was getting ready to pack up and leave the office. It had been an uneventful day; Reid was counting the minutes until the weekend started and the BAU team would receive a two week-long vacation; something they had not had in a long while. Thoughts of the art galleries, museums, and places he would visit went through his mind as he started to stand. A hand clamped down on his shoulder, forcing the young FBI Agent to sit back down in his chair.

Startled, Reid quickly looked up, "What do you want Morgan?"

"Well genius," Morgan said as he sat on the edge of Reid's desk. "I need a favor."

"What kind?" He stared at his African-American teammate; warning him with his glare that this had better not be another scheme he would try to rope him into.

"Nothing painful, but I need you to come out to dinner with me this Friday night." Morgan crossed his arms and gave Reid his best charming smile. Reid gave his friend a puzzled look. "Wouldn't it be better if you took someone like Emily? Or are you trying to tell me something?"

It was Morgan's turn to be puzzled. "What? Ohhh, no! No, no, no. Not like that smarty-pants."

Morgan reached over to smack the back of Reid's head. Due to years of the friendly abuse, Reid managed to back away from the line of fire.

"Then why do you want me to go?"

"Will you just say yes already?"

"No, I want to know why first."

"Reid."

"Morgan."

"Come on pretty boy. You know you want to say yes."

"Compliments will get you nowhere."

"Did you just make a funny?" Morgan chuckled and shook his head.

"Maybe." Reid smirked at his teammate. "What's in it for me?"

"Anything. If you go I'll buy or do anything."

"Anything? Really now…" Reid leaned back in his chair; finger tapping the side of his face, thoughtful. The opportunity to have Morgan in his debt was too good to pass up.

"Alright, yes. When and where?"

"Yes!" Morgan cheered clapping his hands a few times. "6:30, meet me at my place and we'll go from there. Dress casually, but nice."

Reid raised an eyebrow. "Okay."

"Thanks Reid. You won't regret it."

"I'm sure I will." Reid said standing up once again. The two profilers grabbed their bags and walked towards the elevators. "You and your schemes tend to get me in trouble."

Morgan reached out again and was successful in hitting Reid's head.

"Shut up."
