“Morgan.” Reid pulled out his most menacing tone. “If you don’t go peacefully, Garcia will come and drag you there.”
“Why can’t you go without me?”
“Because everyone’s going. She’s been planning this for…. Well, I don’t know exactly how long, but approximately four months.”
“If I go, and that is not a promise, do I have to dress up?”
“Yeah, you have to dress up. It’s a Halloween party!”
“And that reason enough to stay home.”
“Did you know that all the way till the 1950s, people in the rural areas of Ireland took Halloween very seriously. It was the one day of the year when all the deceased came back for their living family members. That’s why people stayed inside after dark, and didn’t leave unless they had a clergyman to protect them from evil spirits. Besides, everyone else will be wearing a costume.”
“I doubt that.”
“Trust me, everyone.”
“Hotch?”
“Men In Black.”
“Chad?”
“Adam. With leafs and everything.”
“Prentiss?”
“Gothic witch.”
“J.J.?”
“Marilyn Monroe.”
“Rossi?”
“Godfather, Brando style.”
“Garcia?”
“Malibu Barbie.”
“Kevin?”
“Geeky Ken.”
“Sean?”
“Jason Worhees.”
“Cain?”
“GI Joe.”
Morgan eyed him suspiciously.
“What about you?”
“What about me?”
“What kinda costume did you get? Frankenstein again?”
“Nope.”
“Something sci-fi themed?”
“I’m not telling you until you promise you’ll come with me.”
“Fine, I’ll go with you. What is it?”
“I’ll show you later. First you’ll do your part and get into your costume.”
“I don’t have a costume yet.”
“You do. I got one for you when I went to the rental shop.” Reid went to the wardrobe and pulled out a blue costume bag. “You’ll put that on and I’ll get into my costume.”
------------------------------------------
“You’re not going to go outside in that?” Hotch took off his black glasses and gave Chad a long look. “I know you have certain exhibitionistic tendencies, but usually you just show off at home.”
“We’re going to Garcia’s flat, we’re not partying in a packed club. And I’ll put a coat on for the car ride.” Chad smirked. His Adam costume was basically a skin coloured thong with large leafs in the front and in the back. “Besides, you told me not to get the Tarzan costume.”
“It was even skimpier than that one!”
“So?”
“People will see everything! Well…. Almost everything.”
“Are you saying I have something to hide?”
“No, quite the opposite, but….”
“But what?”
“I would like to keep something to myself. And Garcia will be all over you.”
“Don’t worry, they can look but not touch.”
“You better make that clear to them.”
“Are we feeling little bit insecure?”
“No….”
“How bout this: When we come back, Adam will let you take a bite from the forbidden fruit.”
“Remember what happened after that?”
“Yeah, but we wont get banished. And we don’t need to be at Garcia’s place for a while…. My Man In Back could show me some of his interrogation techniques.”
He picked up the black glasses and placed them on Hotch`s face. “You think you could make me confess?”
“I think I could.”
“Show me.” Chad grabbed Hotch`s black tie and pulled him into the bedroom.

“Please tell me you’re kidding…..” Morgan moaned. He came out of the bathroom in his costume. “Planet of the Apes?”
“Yeah, isn’t it great?” Reid commented from the closet. “Did I get the size right?”
“You didn’t even get me a spaceman costume from Planet of the Apes, you dressed me up as one of the apes!”
“It was one of the few costumes they still had left. You should have reserved your costume in advance like I did.”
“Don’t tell me you got a Frankenstein costume again….”
“I don’t.”
“Or a noose around your neck.”
“I don’t have a noose, I didn’t want to repeat myself. Close your eyes, I’m coming out.”
“Okay….” Morgan closed his yes. “Can I open them now?”
“Yeah.”
Morgan opened his eyes and started laughing. Reid was dressed up in a Dracula costume, with a pair of fangs and a death white make-up.
“Is that a good laugh?”
“Really good…..” Morgan gasped for air. “Sorry to say this, baby, but your face doesn’t fit the role.”
“I got fangs!”
“I meant your face! You look way too innocent to pull that off.”
“You don’t like it?” Reid looked like a kicked puppy.
“Don’t do that big-eye-thing. You look like a really young and pretty Dracula. But I can’t imagine you talking with Hungarian accent and attacking young maidens.”
“But you can imagine me attacking you and sucking you dry?”
“Pretty boy….”
“I was talking about blood.”
“Oh…..”
“Hold on to that thought." Reid smirked. "We can get back to that topic when we come home."
