Morgan knocked on Reid's door early on Saturday morning. Boy Wonder had been missing from work all week. Though the medical certificate was enough to pacify Hotch, Morgan needed to see the young genius to convince himself the kid was ok. He didn't stop to think about why he needed to check on the kid.

The door swung open slowly to reveal Reid, wearing only a pair of sweatpants. The kid was obviously not well, but it still took a moment for Morgan to force his attention away from the six-pack. He'd never seen Reid in anything less than his 'teacher uniform' and hadn't considered what might be hidden beneath the meek outfits.

"Morgan?" Reid was obviously surprised. "What are you doing here?" he stepped back to allow Morgan to enter his home. "Is there a case?"

Morgan shook his head as he stepped into Reid's home. The others had visited for various reasons, but in an attempt to offer him some privacy Morgan had never been to Reid's place. The fact that Reid thought a case would bring Morgan to his home made the older man grit his teeth.

"You're not well at the moment kid, so even if there was a case I wouldn't tell you about it. I came to see if you're doing ok, to see if there's anything I can do to help." Morgan watched him closely, not sure how he would take this.

Reid stared at the older agent in shock. "Oh…um…I'm ok, thank you for checking on me." He gave Morgan an awkward smile. At least Derek knew about his social awkwardness, he would understand and not be offended.

Morgan smiled and shook his head. "And is there anything I can do to help?" he reminded Reid of his offer gently.

Reid bit his lip uncertainly. "I don't…I'm not…I'm not sure. No one's ever…" he grimaced and turned to make his way to the couch. Answering the door and the few moments of standing was enough to tire him out.

Morgan felt anger rising but couldn't stop it. "What do you mean no one has ever offered to help you? You go out of your way to make life easier for everyone else and no one has ever thought to return that favour?" he grumbled, following Reid to the couch. He knew the kid liked his personal space, but seemed to forget that fact for a moment when he fell onto the couch so close they were almost touching. Reid's eyes widened but he couldn't move away as he was trapped between the arm of the chair and Morgan's muscled body. "Do you want me to make you a cup of coffee?"

Reid shook his head slowly. "No, thank you, but tea would be wonderful." At Morgan's shocked expression, he explained. "When I'm sick, I don't drink coffee at all. Tea only."
