…
I see my future when I look in your eyes
It took your love to make my heart come alive
Cos I lived my life believin' all love is blind
But everything about you is tellin' me this time
It's forever, this time I know and there's no doubt in my mind
Forever, until my life is thru, girl I'll be lovin' you forever
Forever-KISS

The day Sirius was meant to leave on his mission, he couldn't pull himself from bed. He was all wrapped up tightly around the love of his life, and he figured he probably wouldn't even leave this bed if his house was on fire. He didn't want to leave her.
But Hermione, always the practical one, forced him off of her, laughing as he tried to pull himself in to kiss her.
"Come on, now, Sirius," Hermione said. "You're making this harder than it needs to be. Now, look at me. Come on, look at me."
Sirius looked into Hermione's smiling eyes. "Yes, ma'am?"
"We'll write all of the time. And it's not like I'm never going to see you again, right?"
Sirius sighed. "Right."
Hermione nodded. "Good. Now, go get in the shower. You need to be at Remus's before the portkey leaves. You've got forty-five minutes."
As Sirius stood in the bathroom, staring at himself in the mirror, making sure he looked alright, he thought about his newfound life with Hermione. He could do this for the rest of his life. He was going to keep on loving Hermione forever. He didn't think he'd be able to find anyone after Michelle, but Hermione…Hermione was amazing. She was nothing like Michelle was. She was so much greater than Michelle. He loved her with all of his heart. He was never going to feel otherwise, and he knew it. That's why he knew that, despite how difficult and dangerous this mission ahead of him seemed as though it would be, he was coming back to Hermione, safe and sound. There was nothing that could keep him from returning to Hermione. Absolutely nothing at all.

Sirius gave Hermione one last kiss before he was to leave for Remus's.
"And you promise that you'll send me a patronus every time you can?" Hermione said. Writing would be quite difficult for Sirius, since he would be camping out in the woods, but sending patronus's between the two of them would be fairly simple. The only requirement was that Sirius must send his first, because if Hermione to send one at a bad time it could mean their lives.
Sirius nodded and kissed her forehead softly. "Of course. I love you. Talk to you tonight. Wait up for me?"
Hermione nodded. "I don't know if I'll be able to sleep until you return."
Sirius sighed. "I'll be back before you know it."
Hermione nodded again, squeezing herself tightly against him once more. "Goodbye."
With one last I love you, Sirius was gone.
