A/N - Okay, new story! I do not own Criminal Minds of The Office, or anything affiliated with the two of them. Enjoy!


Chapter One -

Garcia sat at her desk, typing away at a billion words per minute, when an IM window popped up on her bottom right screen. No one ever IMed her at work. She tilted her head, curious, and clicked it open.

DerekMorgan says: Hey Girl, do you know what starts of Monday?

Garcia's eyes lit up. Of course she knew what started Monday! She was just glad that he had remembered their tradition! She typed her response at the speed of lightning.

PenelopeGarcia says: Of course, my love! April fools week!!!

A second later, Morgan wrote -

DerekMorgan says: :) Yes ma'am! But what should we do this year? We only have the weekend to come up with something brilliant. And we can't let anyone know what we are doing, so we have to do it all over IM.

Garcia thought about it for a minute, and then smiled as an idea hit her.

PenelopeGarcia says: I just got an idea! What TV show do we know that has the most hilarious pranks of all time, and it just happens to be a favourite of both of ours?

DerekMorgan says: I knew I could count on you, you beautiful genius of a woman! Send me a list of all the pranks ever done on The Office. And hurry! Hotch is coming!

PenelopeGarcia says: I'm on it!

A second later, the list was opened up on both of their computers.

Morgan sat in the bullpen, reading over the list and matching his favourite pranks to whichever member of BAU he thought would be the most annoyed by that particular one. And being a profiler, he had a pretty good idea of which ones would annoy who.

Hotch walked over and Morgan minimized the list, and pretended to be doing something else. But Hotch walked past him and over to Reid's desk to ask him a question. Relieved, Morgan opened it up again and continued his IM conversation.

DerekMorgan says: I think I've got it! Here's my list of what we should pull on who. Tell me what you think!

He sent her the list, and a moment later, Garcia replied.

PenelopeGarcia says: I trust your opinion 100%, good sir! Let's begin plotting, shall we?

DerekMorgan says: And so begins April Fool's week!

Across the aisle from Morgan, Hotch had finished talking to Reid was about to start back to his office, when Reid stopped him.

"Hotch, by the way. I was wondering if I could have the whole next week off?" He asked. Morgan looked up from his screen. Hotch frowned.

"That's pretty short notice. What do you want all of next week off for?"

"Well, if I remember correctly, and I always do, Monday marks the beginning of April Fool's week." Reid looked over at Morgan, who raised his hands innocently.

"April Fool's week? It isn't even April!" Hotch said.

"That's the idea. On April 1st, everyone would see it coming. But in December, you catch people completely off guard." Reid explained. "I agree. The name is very deceiving. Don't you remember last year?"

"I remember." Hotch replied coldly.

Last year, Garcia and Morgan had pelted Hotch with water balloons on his way to his car after work.

"Morgan, tell Garcia that if anything like that happens again this year, there will be major consequences. Do you understand?"

"Of course, sir." Morgan said. "Besides, we've both matured. Practical jokes are so last year."

"Having said that, I'd still like next week off. Just in case?" Reid interrupted.

"That's ridiculous. I'm not going to give you the week off just because you're scared of something that Morgan and Garcia WON'T even be doing." With one last look of warning towards Morgan, Hotch turned and went back to his office.

Morgan smirked at Reid mischievously.

"Come on man!" Reid exclaimed, leaning forwards pleadingly. "Last year we all had to suffer after what you did to him!"

"Don't worry kid. Garcia and I learned our lesson after last time. This year will be less extreme."

"Please Morgan! Just leave him alone this year!"

"Sorry. No can do. That would go against the rules of April Fools week. It clearly states in the rules that every member of the BAU has to be pranked on at least a moderate level."

"Well what about you and Garcia?"

"The Pranksters don't count."

"That doesn't seem fair." Reid complained.

"Hey, I don't make the rules." Morgan said with a shrug.

"Yes you do!" Reid cried. "You invented the stupid holiday!"

Morgan didn't reply. He just turned back to the computer and typed to Garcia, these words...

DerekMorgan says: Let's start with Reid....
