A/N: Thanks to everyone who has reviwed so far. This chapter isn't my favorite..
"Regulus actually gave you the money? No questions asked?"
James, Sirius, and Remus had met at The Three Broomsticks, the three friends hadn't been seen together in ages, and they all agreed that it was high time they met up again. James was shocked that Regulus actually helped Sirius; he didn't think the older boy would. In fact, he had no idea why he even suggested going to him in the first place, but it seemed that his idea had been a good one. At James' question, Sirius nodded frowning slightly, "Yeah, he did give me the money. But he did ask some questions."
Remus looked over suddenly interested, "Such as?"
Sirius' frown deepened, "Well firstly he asked why I didn't come to you or James. But what really got me was that he asked if I would ever help him in return. And of course I had to say yes, because I needed the money." He shook his head, "Can you believe it? The nerve of that prat asking if I would help him in return, hasn't he ever heard of paying it forward?"
Remus sighed and frowned slightly, "Yes, actually Sirius I can and do believe it. And I'm sure if he had come to you for help, you wouldn't have helped him. Either that or you would have done the exact same thing. I'm sure a lot of people would when it came down to handing out their money, or giving up their time for someone else. Most people just want something in return."
Sirius glared at Remus, "Whose bloody side are you on anyways Remus?" he muttered, "I thought you'd be on my side. Knowing Regulus when he needs my help it will probably be because of some stupid Death Eater thing and he'll need me to bail him out, or do something illegal."
Remus raised an eyebrow, "Your brother may be a Death Eater Sirius, but he's not that stupid. Besides, I recall you saying he was having second thoughts, and that he hasn't really done anything. I don't see Regulus as a dodgy person"
"Yes but-" Sirius was cut off as Remus continued.
"So I suggest that you don't jump to conclusions just yet. I think you should just wait until he asks you for help."
Sirius sighed and turned away from Remus, "Well James, we've heard Moony's opinion, but what about you. What do you think?"
James sighed, lifted his bottle of Butter Beer, and took a quick swig before lowering it back to the table. "Well Sirius, I think Remus had a point. This is Regulus we're talking about. Your mothers little king. I don't see him as dangerous, or as a potential threat. So I agree, wait it out, see what he asks you to do when you need help, if he asks for your help at all. Who knows he may never come to you. Maybe he just wants the comfort of knowing he has some else to turn to besides that girl. What's her name again? Tia or something?"
Sirius laughed slightly, "Yeah, that's her name. I don't think she'd be too happy if she had heard you call her that girl. But enough about Regulus and his love life. What about you guys? You doing alright?" He took a drink of his Butter Beer.
James smiled, "Things have been great. Lily and Harry are doing just fine. I guess you could say things couldn't be better."
Remus offered a tight smile, "Things are okay. Could be worse, but they could be better too. I just need to find my feet and I'll be fine." He sighed, "I'm just lucky that my parents left me some money."
Sirius offered a small smile, "Seems we're all down on our luck when it comes for money. 'Cept for James here," he laughed, and was soon joined by the others. Soon all thoughts of Regulus and Sirius owing him a favor were forgotten and the three friends enjoyed the rest of the night together.
