Soundtrack of my Summer

Chapter One: The best vacation of their lives.

Disclaimer: Does anybody really think that I own Harry Potter? Well, if I did, I totally wouldn't have killed Sirius! So there!

A/N: I have a new story up! Just so everyone knows, this story is very AU. Here is a small summery: Lily goes to Beaxbatons, and James goes to Hogwarts. The two have never met. Then, each goes on vacation with a few friends, and they all wind up at the same Beach House! Sparks will totally fly! Anyway, I updated my other story, so check it out. Well, I hope you enjoy the story! Oh yeah, since Lily and her friends live in France, they will be speaking French sometimes. When they speak French, I will bold it, so that you know. Most of the time, it will be because they are talking about James, Remus, or Sirius D.

Lily Evans was sitting on her living room couch, staring eagerly at the fireplace, her curly, red hair falling in her face. To most people, this would seem very strange, but to a wizard, it was clear that she was simply awaiting the arrival of someone by floo powder

Lily was, in fact, waiting for the arrival of her two best friends, Marie Bonmeison, and Josette DeGuibe. The three girls went to school together, and had been friends since the first train ride there. The school they went to, however, was not a normal school. It was called Beaxbatons, and it taught magic. The summer holiday had only begun a few days earlier. Lily was much enjoying the freedom, and this summer was sure to be the best ever.

Soon after returning home, Lily had received an owl from Josette, inviting her to go on holiday in the States. However, this wasn't going to be a normal vacation. Since the girls were going into their 8th and final year at Beaxbatons this fall, they had all agreed that they had to do something special that summer. Lily could still visualize the letter in her mind.

Dear Lily,

How are you? Remember when we had all decided to do something special this summer? Well, I talked to my parents, and they said I could go to America this summer, and take you guys with me! My parents aren't going, so it'll just be us. We reserved a vacation house in Miami, Florida, right by the beach. There are also going to be three guys staying there. I hope they are hot! My parents have payed for everything, so don't worry about that. Write me back telling me if you can come. Hope to see you soon!

Sincerely,

Josette DeGuibe

P.S. Marie has already informed me she could go. Also, it is a muggle vacation, so be sure to bring plenty of muggle clothes.

That had been two days earlier, and since then, Lily had begged and pleaded with her parents, and they finally agreed that she could go.

She was snapped out of her trance by a teenage girl falling out of the fireplace. She had straight, dark brown hair, and blue eyes. She stood up and smiled at Lily.

"Hello," she said happily, sitting down next to Lily.

"Hey Marie. Is Josette with you?" Lily asked, looking over at her friend. No sooner than Marie nodded, Josette came tumbling out of the fireplace. She was a few inches shorter than Lily and Marie, who were both about 5'5". She had straight, dirty blond hair with brown low lights and blonde highlights. She also had large chocolate brown eyes.

"Ready?" she asked as she stood up. Lily went to say good bye to her parents, and Marie and Josette carried Lily's trunk to the fireplace.

When Lily returned, Josette pulled out a small drawstring bag filled with floo power. The three girls flooed to Josette's house, ready for the best vacation of their lives.

"James, you ready mate?" came the voice of Sirius Black, making James Potter jump slightly. He turned his hazel orbs on Sirius, who had emitted a bark-like laugh. He was very please with himself for startling his best friend. His black hair was fell gracefully into his dancing gray eyes as he took a seat on the couch.

"Don't get to pleased with yourself Padfoot, it didn't scare me that much," James said, using Sirius's nickname.

James and Sirius, along with Remus Lupin and Peter Pettigrew all went to school together. Hogwarts was the school's name, and it was not a regular school. Hogwarts was filled with magic, werewolves, and animagi. Animagi were wizards who could transform themselves into animals. James, Sirius, and Peter were just that.

Remus, however, was not a animagus, but a werewolf. That was where the whole story began. James, Sirius, and Peter had become animagi to help Remus with his painful transformations.

The boys' nicknames had stemmed from their animal forms. Sirius was a dog called Padfoot, James was a stag called Prongs, and Peter was a rat called Wormtail. Remus went by Moony, due to his condition with the moon.

"Sure, whatever," Sirius said doubtfully, interrupting James's thoughts, but then he brightened again, "Are you ready for our Floridian vacation?" He said, causing James to grin.

"Of course," James responded, but was then struck by a thought, "Where are Moony and Wormtail?" He paused, looking around the room, as if expecting them to pop out from behind a corner the was Sirius had.

"Moony is aparating here soon, but Peter couldn't come," Sirius said, causing James to sadden slightly.

"Pete's not going? It won't be the same without all of us," James said disappointedly. James, Sirius, Remus and Peter were called the Marauders and school, and were well known for doing everything together, and causing quite a bit of trouble along the way.

"No, but hey, the travel agent said there were going to be chicks staying with us." Sirius said, wiggling his eyebrows suggestively. He was a lady killer at Hogwarts, and was always dating some slut or another. Not that it was all that bad- he rarely dated a girl for shorter than a few weeks, and never cheated on them.

"Try to control yourself mate," said a voice from behind the two boys. Sirius jumped, but James simply got annoyed.

"What is today? 'Apparate into James's house and try to scare him' day?" James said, causing Sirius and Remus to laugh.

"Well, come on, we had better get going if we want to make it to the muggle death trap- er, aeroplane- on time," Sirius said. Remus, being a half-blood, had reserved them airplane tickets. James and Sirius were still rather apprehensive about it.

And so the four boys walked out into the street, ready for the best vacation of their lives.

Lily, Marie, and Josette walked around the airport. Marie (who was pure-blood) marveled at all of the muggle things. Lily was a muggleborn, and Josette was a half-blood, so both of them knew at least some things about the muggle world. Marie, on the other hand, was a complete stranger to normal things. Escalators for example.

They had taken an escalator to get from the check- in desk, to where the terminals were. She had made a huge fuss about how it was sure to collapse, and had flat-out refused to take it, instead using the stairs. The girls were now walking around the airport mall for the extra hour before they had to board their flight.

"Oh, I almost forgot! We have to buy gum," Lily said, heading into a store. Josette had to drag Marie in, who was insisting they go into a bar to taste muggle alcohol.

"Why do we need gum? I have some Droople's in my bag," Marie said, looking around the small store. She soon noticed that they didn't have any magical sweets. She watched as Lily used muggle francs to buy muggle gum, candy, and two magazines called Seventeen and CosmoGirl!

"What magazines are those?" Marie asked ans the girls walked back to their gate.

"They are muggle fashion magazines. I'm sure you'll like them," Lily said absently as the girls got seats by the window, waiting for the plane to board.

"Whatever," Marie said, but then brightened up, "I can't wait until we get to the beach house," She said. The girls were taking and early flight, at 7:15 Paris time, and with flight time and the time difference, they would be arriving in America at about 9:00 in the morning.

"Same," said Josette. Marie looked out of the window and gasped.

"Wait a minute! Are we riding in one of those things? Without magic? There is no way it would stay in the air," she said. Lily shushed her, but Josette, who was also looking out the window, agreed with her, saying she didn't know the airplane would be like that.

"Will you guys cool it? I have been on planes before, and believe me, it is nothing to worry about. And if you don't quiet down, people will get suspicious," Lily said quietly, calming Marie and Josette.

Just then, a voice came on the loudspeaker, saying that flight 1024 to Miami, Florida was boarding. The girls got in the line to board, Marie and Josette still apprehensive. They walked down the aisle of the plane, Marie looking oddly at the muggles with CD players (A/N: Did they have those in 1977? Maybe they were more like cassette tape players...).

When they got to their seats, they sat down and began to talk about how much fun America would be.

"I'm going to go to the beach as soon as we get there,"Josette said. The other girls agreed.

"I can't wait to meet the boys," Marie said.

"Same. Are they going to be muggles by the way?" Lily asked.

"I assume so. I'm not sure though. Wouldn't that be odd if we already knew them, like if they went to Beaxbatons," Josette said.

"That would be so bizarre," Lily agreed. The girls waited a few more minutes, until a flight attendant's voice came over the loud speaker.

"How does she do that?" Marie said as the overly- perky flight attendants instructed the passengers on how to fasten the seatbelts.

"This is so lame, who doesn't know how to buckle a seatbelt?" Lily muttered, ignoring Marie's question.

"Me, actually. I don't get it," Josette complained, looking from the flight attendants' demonstrations to the seat belt in her hand.

"Come on. Even I figured that out," Marie said proudly. Josette glared at her and then looked back at the seat belt. It took her a few more seconds before she got it.

"Oh! Oops, I was holding it upside down!," she said, blushing slightly and buckling the seatbelt.

The plane began to move, and Josette and Marie started to get nervous again. They made a pretty big deal about it for the first 30 minutes or so of flying, but soon dropped it. Their theory seemed to be, 'If this huge chunk of metal is going to fall, it would have fallen before now'. They were much more pleasant from that point on.

Throughout the 8 hour plane ride, the girls got pretty bored. Lily figured out that jet-lag could be pretty much avoided if they slept on the plane, so the girls spent most of their time sleeping. When the plane finally landed, the girls were nearly jumping with excitement.

"Yay, we are here! Come on," Marie said as they got off the plane. Marie led them over to a man holding a sign with Josette's name on it.

"Josette DeGuibe?" the man said in a heavy American accent. Josette nodded, so the man continued, "I am Max Sullivan, and I will be giving you a ride to your final destination," Max Sullivan finished talking and turned around. He began to walk away, and the girls were unsure whether to follow him or not. Their question was answered, as the man turned around and beckoned them forward.

The car ride to the beach hose was only about 15 minutes long, but it seemed much longer. I turned out that Max Sullivan was a very odd man. He flat out refused to let the girls open their windows because he, "didn't want harmful toxins entering the car." This, of course, meant that the car was very warm.

When the car finally pulled up, the girls all gasped at the sight of the house. It was pretty large, and was powder blue in color. The girls got out of the car, but their luggage was heavier than expected, especially in the heat.

"My stupid trunk is so heavy," Lily complained as she tried to heave it up the stairs. Max Sullivan had already driven away, leaving the girls to struggle with their trunks.

"Need some help?" came a voice from the doorway. The girls looked up to see a guy, about 17, leaning against the doorframe. He was grinning at the girls, his jet black hair unbelievably messy. He had memorizing hazel eyes, and Lily's first thought upon seeing him was, "Holy shit, he's hot."

XOxoXOxoXOxoXO

There, it's done! I really hope you like it. By the way, the guy at the doorway was James, just in case you didn't figure that out. Well, hope you like it, and remember...
