"I always forget how bright it is." Elijah shook his head as he sipped his lemonade.
"You get used to it after a while." Garcia assured him.
"Ooh, Fleur. Look over there." Elijah pointed towards Morgan, dancing with another girl.
"He can dance." Fleur nodded slowly, watching the girl slowly as she drank her drink.
"Oh, I know.' He chuckled.
"Just look at him move. He's like a cat." Garcia hummed, watching Morgan.
"Or one of those wobbly men you see outside of car dealerships." Elijah smirked.
"I'd say he's more like a dog." Emily shrugged.
"He didn't ask them to dance. They asked him." Fleur pointed.
"And he said yes, obviously, to prove his skill to you." Elijah nodded.
"I'm going to the loo, don't let anyone steal my seat." Garcia stood up.
"Of course, darling." Elijah nodded, covering her drink with his hand.
"Do you see that girl's hand?" Fleur pointed.
"The one by Morgan? Oh yes." Emily nodded.
"I'll be back." Fleur raised from her seat and walked over to the dance floor.
"Show them how it's done, darling." Elijah called to her.
Morgan smirked, turning towards Fleur.
"Sorry, squeezing through." Fleur danced past some girls, as she took Morgan's hand.
"You ready for the best moment of your evening?" Morgan asked her.
"Don't get too full of yourself." Fleur laughed.
"Spence is forming a crowd." Emily pointed.
"Is that about his Star Trek knowledge drinking game?" Elijah turned.
"Probably." Emily chuckled.
"Well, looks like it's just us. Have you been having fun at the BAU?" Elijah asked her.
"I have. Everyone's like family." Emily hummed
"I'm glad." He smiled.
That's when JJ walked over,"Guys?"
"Yes, darling?" Elijah turned to face her.
"We got a case. Play times over." JJ sighed.
"And just when I thought we'd get a night off." Emily shook her head.
"Oh, we don't get those." Elijah sighed.
"Gather the troops." Emily nodded.
"Fleur, Morgan! Stop flirting with each other, there's work to do." Elijah called to them.
"We're off!" Fleur waved Elijah off as she pulled away from Morgan.
"Aw, we were having so much fun." Morgan chuckled.
*********************************
"You know it never fails. Just as I'm getting my groove thing going..Bam! We're back at the BAU." Morgan drank his coffee.
Everyone was trying to sober up, everyone except Elijah and Reid who hadn't drank any alcohol.
"You know, statically, a case doesn't come in with any more frequency if you're at a party or gathering than if you weren't. It's a trick of the mind. We merely remember the ones that came in that way more." Reid explained as Elijah's hand rested beside his on the table.
