Just wanted to address something before I started... someone left me a review (a good one don't worry. Oh and please keep reviewing it means so much to me) that I got the year of the Yule Ball incorrect. It was an anonymous review so I can't message them... So I just wanted to tell this person that Ginny was talking when the Yule Ball was mentioned, and she was in third year at the time. :) (Second Chapter).

Oh and as I said earlier I really appreciate all your reviews... It makes me feel so happy that people like the story (so please continue those :P) ENJOY! :)

Hermione woke up at dawn, as she always did. Some things never changed. She threw on a red short-sleeved sweater and a pair of khakis. She brushed her bushy hair and pulled it into a pony tail. By now, Hermione was ready to leave, but Ron was still asleep. She quietly walked over to him and whispered in his ear, "Ron wake up. We have to leave soon."

"No- just let me sleep a little longer," a half awake Ron moaned.

"Ron, please just get up," she said as she shook him.

Of course Ron did not comply, so this started another argument. Five minutes later, Hermione was finished with the conversation. She could no longer wait; desperate times called for desperate measures. She grabbed her wand and muttered, "Aguamenti" and water flew at Ron's face.

"Bloody hell, Hermione!" Ron yelled as he got up to dry himself off.

"Good morning to you too," she said as she kissed his cheek.

"So what's the plan for today, boss?" Ron asked after he was in a better mood.

"Well first, you have to get ready. Then I have a list of the addresses that belong to a Wendell and Monica Wilkins. I'm only having one problem. What do we do if it's not my parents? I mean what do we say to them? It's not like we can disapparate on the spot and not have the couple mentally scarred for life. I just don't know Ron." Hermione hated how she always started to ramble when she was nervous.

Ron could hear how scared her voice was. All Hermione wanted to do was find her parents. He would do anything to make her happy again.

"Well we could tell them that we're… uh, salesmen. Trying to sell them, this watch." On the spot, he transfigured his towel into a watch.

"That's actually good idea Ron!" Hermione was ecstatic. She gave him a congratulatory kiss.

"Always the tone of surprise," Ron replied sarcastically.

Hermione sat on the bed reading, Traveler's Guide to Australia while Ron got ready. As normal, it was a good hour before Ron was completely done. Hermione had to continually threaten him to make him move faster. All he did was complain about how hungry he was.

"Where's the first stop?" Ron asked as he walked out of the bathroom.

"Well the first couple on the list lives in Sydney. I thought we might start there." They grabbed hands and disapparated to 107 Apexial Drive.

Hope you liked the chapter. I know it was a little shorter, but the next chapter's going to be a lot longer, I promise. Oh and please review so I can know your thoughts on how the story is progressing. :P
