[James couldn't help but watch her. It had been a long time since he'd seen her and he wondered if she'd hate him for what he'd done in her absence. He'd done some quick calculations and he was probably in his fourth year of borrowed time. Voldemort had killed them both at only twenty-one years old. And James must be pushing twenty-five by now.
How much of that time had he been with his wife? Probably less than a year. So he didn't automatically go up to her when he finally did notice her at the party. He worried he'd changed too much. She'd taken time to love him. Maybe time passing would change her opinion of him again.
But then she noticed him and he couldn't help but give her the smile that was only reserved for her. He nodded slowly at her question and eventually answered in a few words.]
I saw magic at work the day I met you. The day I married you. And...today.
