SCARECROW AND FOX.

More stories on the Scarecrow and the Fox. =]

The restaurant was empty. A bit too empty. Fox sat at a table alone. A waiter came past.
"Would you be ordering your meal yet?"
"Not yet." Fox looked at her watch. They booked the table for 7 pm. It was now 7:45.
Suddenly, the door of the restaurant opened. It made a loud creaking noise and a large bald guy walked in and sat at the piano. He started playing.
Fox looked up. It was her favourite song. She heard a voice (a faint one) singing the words of her favourite song. It sounded more and more familiar as it got closer.
It was the Scarecrow!
He walked over to Fox, stopped singing and hugged her. Then he sat opposite her.
"Oh, Scarecrow..."
They had a perfect meal. So romantic.
On the way home, they stopped at traffic lights.
"Scarecrow, could you..."
"Who is that?" Scarecrow interrupted, pointing at the guy crossing the road.
It was a younger version of Snake.
"Snake's son, eh?" Scarecrow watched in amazement. "Well, hopefully I don't bump into him in the future."
Scarecrow kept driving and dropped Fox home.

The next day, Scarecrow woke up to the doorbell. He opened the door, still in pajamas.
"Hello," said the boy, "I'm your new neighbour."
Scarecrow looked closely at the boy. He looked about 21 but then again, Scarecrow was half asleep.
"Hey there. Would you like a coffee?"
"Sure."
The boy came in and Scarecrow made the coffee. They both sat down to drink it.
Scarecrow looked up at the boy. He looked familiar but how?
"So, what is your job?" the boy asked, politely.
"United States Marine Corps. Yours?"
"I'm still at university. My father used to be a Marine..."
"Really?" Scarecrow racked his brain. Was there a Marine that died and also had a son?
"Are you Buck Riley's son?" Scarecrow asked, half asleep.
"Uh, no."
And then it clicked. This was the boy that Scarecrow had seen crossing the road yesterday.
Scott Kaplan's son lived next door to him!
"ARGHH!!!" screamed Scarecrow.
