"I don't like the idea of this." Sirius said pacing behind Severus, who was currently running through his emergency potions stock. (You know blood replenishing potion, band-aids, the essentials)

"I have to do this Sirius, it's my duty."

"Screw your duty, it's to dangerous!" He raised his arms in exclamation, causing Severus to turn and face him. Severus' eyes were not cold and full of hatred towards him as they had been in the past, the coal-black spheres seemed sorrowful. Sirius saw this as his grey eyes caught Severus' and he almost instantly relaxed. It was amazing that Severus could still quell him with one look. "I don't want you to go." He said in a pathetic whisper, his voice shaking.

"I'll be fine, and be back before you know it." Severus said hugging Sirius. "Besides this information I'm receiving is crucial to ending this goddamn war." He added bitterly.

Sirius nodded, tears on the crease of his eyes. Severus hugged him tighter, and kissed him chastely on the lips. He turned and walked out of the room, before he could change his mind and stay with Sirius.

I wanted a story with a plot for a change, and Joceline and I never explained our idea on how Severus and Sirius got together, so thats what this story intails, more chapters to come, longer chapters then this I promise you. Not OotP or HBP compatible.
