Regulus Black miraculously survives the cave of Inferi. There isn't a single soul that he trusts, given that his brother is now locked up as a Death Eater Sympathizer and James Potter is dead. 

James Potter.

The single most loyal person that Regulus Black had ever had the unfortunate luck to meet. He was annoying, and loud, and impossibly Gryffindor, but James Potter would have done anything to win the war.

Even working with his best mate's baby brother, the real Death Eater.

The Guide to Pretty Much Everything | Jegulus by uhyoinksscoob

"Ready to go?" James asked, hoping to brush over the potentially awkward moment. Regulus was now gaping at him, disbelief coating every inch of available skin. "Potter, I'm not going with you." James gave him a put-upon frown. "Of course, you are." - After losing Sirius, James went through the motions of life without truly living. When he's terminally diagnosed, courtesy of the same crash that killed his best friend, it feels like penance for wasting the last two years wallowing in his grief. With limited time left, he makes a promise to himself that he won't waste his last days the same way he'd done in the past. When he hears from Regulus Black, Sirius's kid brother-whom James hadn't seen since the accident-his past crashes into the present. And when Regulus shows him a bucket list that James and Sirius had written as kids, James knows the perfect way to spend his last thirty days. With a reluctant Regulus Black in his passenger seat, James and Sirius's guide to the perfect summer becomes a last-ditch effort to rekindle his flame with his late best friend, before he meets him again in the afterlife. Somewhere between crappy motels and packs of Twizzlers, the boys find healing in a place they never expected-each other.

Regulus x Marissa(OC) by Vestadabesta

Everyone saw me as perfect, I always had been my whole life. I was Regulus Black, I was raised to be perfect. I was everything that my parents wanted me to be. Pureblood, Slytherin, and the opposite of my brother. My brother was Sirius Black, known as the heart throb of Hogwarts. My parents hated him. He had been sorted into Gryffindor. He had been set free. I have always been jealous of him, he isn't stuck being controlled. He has forgotten about me, moved on completely. He once promised me that we would both escape together, but he broke it. How could I forgive him for that? He ran away over the summer and left me there. "Sorry." I was pulled out of my thoughts when I heard that oh so beautiful voice. "Sorry Marisa, I didn't mean to bump into you!" Some random kid who I didn't know exclaimed. "It was my fault, I should have been more careful." Marisa smiled. My heart skipped a beat at the sight of it. Marisa was a Hufflepuff, and she was one of the most popular girls in the school. She was in the year just above me. She was another one of Sirius' friends. She is also the girl I've had a crush on since third year, but I've never even spoken to her. The harry potter world belongs to J.K. Rowling unfortunately
