IT: Chapter II - It Ends

Reunited

Continuation of the last chapter.

Meg's Pov
It was so weird being back again. After all this time and still, the others hadn't changed a bit, or so I thought. A sudden gong made us turn around. There were three others, two men and a woman. I would recognize that red hair anywhere!,,This meeting of the Losers Club has officially began.",the guy with the glasses meant. A smile made its way onto my face.,,Look at these guys.",Eddie said, pointing at them. I walked over to them, pulling Beverly into a tight hug.,,Oh gosh.. It's been so long!",I told her. She nodded and out of the corner of my eyes, I could see Lia going over to Stan? I mean, who Richie was, was pretty obvious.,,Hey Ben.",she said and everyone, except for Bev and Richie probably, were shocked. This was Ben? The new kid? The fuck happened to him?

After everyone had hugged the three new comers, we all sat down and started ordering food. I sat between Richie and Beverly. Lia was sat in between Eddie and Ben. Ben... I still couldn't believe that, sorry but I had to say this, this freaking hot guy was once the cute, chubby new kid. Well, only his outward appearance seemed to have changed. We all have. The drinks came and we all grabbed a shot.,,To the Losers Club.",I thought as we clinked glasses before throwing down the liquid. It burned in my throat but I was used to it. This wasn't the first time that I had drunk alcohol. 

A few more shots later and we were all laughing and having fun.,,So, wait, Eddie, you got married?",Richie asked, definitely going to make fun of it. He even giggled a little.,,Yeah, why's that so fucking funny, dickwad?",Eddie replied, clearly not having it. I was laughing. This was just like the old times which was why it was so funny. Eddie should've learned by now, right?,,What? To, like, a woman?",Richie inquired, sounding a little serious. I shook my head and made eye contact with Lia. We both started laughing when Eddie said:,,Fuck you bro.", pointing at Richie with a chopstick.,,Fuck you!",Richie meant and Bill was leaning forward to ask him something but I beat him to it.,,All right. What about you, Tashmouth?",,Yeah, you married?",Bill added. We all looked at Richie. Of course our question was meant as a joke. Who would ever want to marry Richie?,,There's no way Richie's married.",Bev and Lia spoke at the same time.,,No, I got married.",Richie meant. Wait what? Seriously? I shook my head. There was no way!,,Richie, I don't believe it.",Bev replied, eating.,,When?",Ben inquired.,,No.",Eddie denied it. He didn't believe it, like everyone else here.,,You didn't know I got married?",Richie said, looking at him. Eddie repeated:,,No.",,Yeah, no. me and your mom are very very happy right now.",Richie meant and Bill choked a little on his drink. We were all laughing again. Of course, Richie would go there. He always did.,,Yeah, very happy.",he said again and everyone was laughing.,,He totally fell for it.",Richie laughed as Eddie was just sipping his drink.,,Fuck you.",Edide meant, not having it.

Then, Richie told us the story of what him and Eddie's mom did together.,,She's very sweet. Sometimes, she'll put her arm around me and she'll whisper to me, she'll go..",he told us, speaking the language Jubba the Hut speaks. I was almost crying at how funny it was.,,Good one Trashmouth.",Lia said, taking a sip of her beer.,,We all get it. My mom was a great, big, fat person.",Eddie replied as Richie went on a little. I tried to shush him but it was Richie we were talking about.,,Hilarious. Hysterical.",Eddie added. Ok, he only made it worse by reacting to Richie.,,Wait, let's talk about the elephant not in the room.... Ben. What the fuck man?",Richie said. I rolled my eyes.,,Richie, leave it.",Lia meant. I was totally on her side. This was not something to be joked about.,,Ok, ok. Obviously, I lost a few pounds.",Ben answered. A few?... Ok, now I was the judging one. I should stop.,,Lost a few?",Eddie meant.,,Yeah, no shit. You lost a few pounds.",Mike said and Richie continued:,,You're like a... You're hot!",,That's true.",I agreed, eating. What? I always told my friends the truth.,,No, you're like every Brazilian soccer player wrapped up into one person. Gorgeous.",he added. I shook my head. Sometimes, I really asked myself: Why was I a friend of Richie? But then again, I loved this motherfucker.,,Leave him alone.",Bev said.,,You're embarrassing him.",Lia added.,,Ok, ok. Please come on. Is Stanley coming or what?",Ben asked, changing the subject. It was only now that I had realized that one chair was empty. Stan... right, where was he?
