🎈CHAPTER 25🎈

•°Corinne's POV°•

"Corinne, are you a millionaire?" Richie suddenly asks me, I had no idea why he was asking me something like that. "No, why?" I asked him.

"Is your husband a millionaire?" Richie asks again.

"Richie, I'm not married." I stated, making a confused look cross his face. "Than how were you able to afford that car?" He questions confusedly. It did make me laugh, shaking my head I told him, "Oh, that, it's actually my boss's car, he's actually a billionaire, which makes a lot of woman want him, but it always end badly for those woman since he's only interested in men."

"Well damn." Richie says, I could see Ben staring at me from the corner of my eye, he looked kind of relief, I shyly took a sip of my beer, leaving the others to their jokes and bickering. After all the food was finished, and the table cleaned our waitress brought a bowl of fortune cookies.

"Thank you."

"Thank you."

"Like, Rogan-Marsh, half my wife's closet Rogan-Marsh?" Bill asks Beverly, taking a cookie, Beverly only nodded, making Bill laugh. "That's... That's huge." He says.

"That's our line. Me and my husband, Tom." Bev says, reaching out to get a fortune cookie, making me see those marks on her arm even more clearly, I thought I was imagining it earlier, but I really saw them.

"How long you've been married?" Bill asks, but Beverly only avoided answering that question as she started talking about something else. "Hey, we saw your movie, by the way."

Feeling someone look at me, I moved my head only to see Ben staring at me, I tried seeing what he was thinking, but he was making it hard, his eyes were showing sadness, longing and affection, but that couldn't be right.

"You did?" Bill asks.

"Oh, my God! It was so good. It was so scary." Bev says.

"And the ending sucked?" Bill asks with a smile.

"Yeah, it did. I'm sorry." Beverly apologized after laughing.

"That's all right."

"What?" Beverly asks, after she realised Bill was staring at her strangely. "Nothing. This is just so weird." Bill states.

"Yeah."

"Just all this, all these memories, people that I don't even remember forgetting." Bill tells her, it was weird and strange, but most of all it shouldn't be possible, and Mike who suddenly looks really nervous, created a lot of questions.

"I mean, it's weird, right? Now that we're all here, everything just comes back faster and faster. I mean all of it." Ben says, I could only nod my head as we stared at each other.

"Yeah, you know, when Mike called me, I threw up." Richie says playing with the fortune cookie between his fingers. "Isn't that weird? Like I got nervous and I got like sick and threw up." Richie says chuckling.

"I feel fine now. I feel very relieved to be here with you guys. Why is everybody looking at me like this?" Richie asks, after seeing we all were looking at him. "When Mike called me, I crashed my car." Eddie says.

"Seriously?"

"Yeah."

"I passed out after the call, my boss had to take me to the hospital, because I didn't wanna wake up." I spoke up, remembering the feeling I had just before I fainted. Ben stared at me with worry, the rest staring, unable to say anything and mike's expression just raised more questions.
