"It's nice to finally meet you," she says, and her voice sends shivers down his spine. He's hopeless, and every other lifetime usually ends with her throwing food on his head or punching him in the stomach. She's looking at him with a confused look in her eyes, and James hates it when it's his turn to be the one to remember she's so much better at convincing him that they're meant to be, that they're soulmates. "I remember," she says softly, smiling at James. "Anyway, Lils, this is James Potter, who I live with now." "Tomato-tohmato," he says, with a wave of his hand. "It's a support group for children with difficult family situations Sirius, c'mon, we've been over this," she reprimands, and Sirius sighs. "Lily Evans, from my gang made up of kids with terrible families, remember? She's transferred to this school, on account of fos- um, housing arrangements," he says, looking at Lily with worried eyes. "Oh, James, this is Lily," he says, grinning at them both. "Poor bloke," he says, and they're all silent for a moment, before Sirius jumps in his seat. "He was in the hospital over the weekend- something about not having enough sugar- so didn't get a chance until now to start it." "Helping Lupin with his English assignment," James reminds him, shoving a mouthful of pasta in his mouth. "James!" Peter calls out, grinning at him as James sits down next to Sirius, and across from her.
There's the spark there, the little glint that tells him she remembers him too, even if she doesn't know it yet. He smiles at her, when he gets closer to the table she's sitting at, and she smiles back, her green eyes lighting up.
He remembers her, with everything inside of him, remembers how they fall in love in every life they share, and he's struck by how lucky he is this time, with how soon he's found her. Her hair is a flaming red, something that she carries with her through every lifetime, and when she looks up, and their eyes connect, his knees just about buckle underneath him. She's sitting with Sirius and Peter, wearing one of Sirius' leather jackets- the oldest one, that's more gray than black, with bright red patches sown into the elbows- and eating some pasta. He's in the school cafeteria the first time he sees her.
