This jumped into my head I hope its good, I don't have a beta reader so sorry for any mistakes.
"Very funny." Reid could feel his cheeks turn a little pink. "You know not as many people as you think can use chop sticks."
Morgan shook his head knowing Reid was about to give him a lecture neither he wanted on or not. He now regretted he brought it up.
"No one knows the exact percent of how many people can't use chopsticks. The populations of China, Japan, Korea, and Vietnam combined equal about 1.59 billion people which equates to 23% of the world's population and there are about thirteen "overseas Chinese," about 2.9 million "overseas Japanese," 2.2 million "overseas Koreans," and about 2.2 million "overseas Vietnamese." That's about 1.6 billion people plus everyone who lives elsewhere and uses chopsticks whenever they get Asian cuisine and all the expats living in chopstick wielding countries. The numbers depend on whether you mean individual people using them always or sometimes or cultures and countries which use them as the main eating utensil. And…"
"Stop!" Rossi yelled giving Reid the look. "Let's talk about something else shall we?" Rossi asked a small smile on his annoyed face.
"Grumpy much Rossi?" Morgan asked a little annoyed at Rossi for yelling at his young friend. It was Reid's birthday after all. "Someone needs their food."
Garcia letting out a small laugh. "I know I do! I haven't had time to eat yet today. You would think it would be easy to find a place to eat on a Tuesday but noooooo."
Hotch smirked a little watching Reid's face. He looked a little hurt and ashamed as he looked down at his empty plate. "Well if the waiter would hurry up and take our orders then we would all be happier."
Once they all got there order they all dug in eating their seafood.
Reid picked up the lobster he had ordered and tried to snap the tail from the back. But it seemed to be overly difficult.
Morgan looked over at him noticing Reid having difficulties with his lobster. "Need help there pretty boy?" He said in a low voice hoping to not draw attention and embrace the birthday boy.
"No I can get it." Reid said getting frustrated.
"Use a knife." Morgan suggested.
Reid nodded his head picking up the knife that was lying next to his plate. He aimed at the lobster and brought the knife down on the red hard shell. It made a crack noise causing Reid to smile.
Hotch looked behind Reid seeing four waiters making their way to their table. One was holding a small cupcake with a lit candle on top. Hotch couldn't help but smile, he knew Reid would hate him for telling them it was his birthday. Hotch figured if Jack could live with the embarrassment then Reid could too. But jack was only four and Reid was now twenty-five.
Rossi followed Hutch's eye sight and he also smiled when he saw the waiters, they were trying to be so quiet and yet Reid was oblivious to them. Reid had finely gotten the lobster meat free and was now eating with a smile on his face.
"Happy Birthday to you! Happy Birthday to you! Happy…" All four of the waiters started to sing, J.J looked up smiling as she started to sing it along with Morgan and Hotch.
Reid looked up taking a deep breath not expecting any of it. He let out a small cough, he could feel something stuck in his throat. 'Why did they have to shock me while I was in the middle of eating?' He thought as his eyes grew wide. He sat there his brain thinking a million things. Please not today…it's my birthday. Six percent of people die on their birthday, I don't want to be one of them… He leaned over the table gagging.
Morgan stopped singing when Reid started to gag his older brother senses were going off. "Reid?" He gave Reid a hard pat on his back. "Reid!"
Garcia stood up from the table. "Oh my GOD! He's choking!" She yelled tears coming to her eyes.
"Reid!" Morgan yelled pulling Reid's chair away from the table and making him stand up. He came up behind Reid wrapping his arms around Reid's sternum and pushed. "Come on Reid….Cough it out." He kept pushing his fist into Reid's sternum hoping to unlogged the food that was killing his friend.
Reid could hear the voices of his friends, but his vision was blurring and the voices seemed to be getting farther away.
If I get enough reviews and enough of you like it then I will update. :D Hopefully you all enjoyed Reid's unlucky birthday!
