“are you avoiding me? did i do something wrong?”
“you did something proper rank. i’m convinced you’ve hexed my heart.”
᭝ ᨳଓ ՟ ron would spend months convincing himself that he didn’t have a crush on sweetheart. according to him, he was just being nice. but according to harry and hermione, he was absolutely hopeless.
.✦ ݁˖ every time sweetheart smiled at him, ron forgot what he was about to say. entire conversations ended with him staring blankly before blurting out something completely unrelated like, “did you know pigwidgeon escaped again?”
᭝ ᨳଓ ՟ sweetheart’s kindness made him ridiculously jealous. not because she liked other people, but because she liked everyone. she smiled at first years, professors, ghosts, and even draco malfoy once after he accidentally dropped his books. ron thought about that for an entire week.
.✦ ݁˖ he would constantly volunteer to help her carry books, bags, or supplies around the castle, only to end up carrying everything while she apologized for “making him work so hard.” (as he walked around smug as ever).
᭝ ᨳଓ ՟ whenever sweetheart complimented him, ron would think about it for the next three months. one “your hair looks nice today” was enough to have him checking his reflection every morning.
.✦ ݁˖ fred and george noticed his crush almost immediately and made it their personal mission to embarrass him. somehow, sweetheart never understood why they kept calling her “future mrs. weasley.”
᭝ ᨳଓ ՟ ron secretly loved that sweetheart remembered little things about everyone. the first time she remembered his favorite sweets and bought him one from honeydukes, he nearly exploded from happiness.
᭝ ᨳଓ ՟ ron spent an embarrassing amount of time trying to convince himself that he didn’t like sweetheart at all. she was too nice, too pretty, too clever, too patient. there was simply no way someone like that would ever look twice at someone like him, she had so many options in front of her!
.✦ ݁˖ after reaching that completely unreasonable conclusion, he decided the smartest solution was to avoid her altogether. if he never talked to her, he couldn’t embarrass himself. unfortunately, this plan lasted exactly two days before she walked up to him with a smile and asked if he’d been feeling alright because she’d missed talking to him.
᭝ ᨳଓ ՟ sweetheart assumed he’d become upset with her somehow and spent the entire afternoon worrying she had done something wrong. meanwhile, ron was hiding behind a bookshelf having an internal crisis because she’d noticed his absence.
.✦ ݁˖ harry found the whole thing ridiculous. “you know she likes talking to you, right?” ron immediately denied it, despite the fact that sweetheart had waved at him four separate times that morning.
᭝ ᨳଓ ՟ every compliment sweetheart gave him was immediately dismissed in his own head. if she called him funny, she was just being polite. if she said he played good quidditch, she was encouraging him. if she said he looked nice today… she probably needs glasses.
᭝ ᨳଓ ՟ one afternoon, sweetheart found him sitting alone by the lake and offered him half of her homemade biscuits. ron accepted one without thinking, then spent the next hour wondering if sharing food counted as flirting.
.✦ ݁˖ ron became hyperaware of every tiny interaction between them. if their hands brushed while reaching for the same book, he’d think about it all night. if she laughed at one of his jokes, he’d replay the sound in his head for days.
᭝ ᨳଓ ՟ sweetheart often linked arms with her friends while walking through the castle. the first time she absentmindedly linked hers with ron’s, he forgot where they were going and nearly walked straight into a suit of armor.
.✦ ݁˖ despite his insecurity, ron couldn’t help looking for her in every room he entered. breakfast in the great hall wasn’t the same until he’d spotted her somewhere among the students.
᭝ ᨳଓ ՟ he once overheard someone call sweetheart “the sweetest girl in hogwarts” and instead of disagreeing, he quietly muttered, “that’s the problem,” before walking away.
.✦ ݁˖ the more he convinced himself she was too perfect for him, the more obvious his crush became. he stumbled over his words, blushed whenever she stood too close, and somehow managed to become louder and quieter at the exact same time whenever she entered the room.
᭝ ᨳଓ ՟ eventually, ginny cornered him and asked why he’d been avoiding sweetheart all week. after five minutes of denial, he sighed and admitted, “because she’s brilliant and i’m… me.” ginny rolled her eyes so hard she thought they might get stuck.
.✦ ݁˖ the funniest part was that sweetheart had spent the entire week asking people if ron was angry with her. she couldn’t imagine any other reason he’d suddenly stopped walking beside her after class.
.✦ ݁˖ despite acting confident around his friends, ron rehearsed asking her out at least thirty times. every version sounded terrible, and somehow the actual confession ended up sounding even worse.
᭝ ᨳଓ ՟ ron would become unbelievably clingy without realizing it. he’d naturally gravitate toward sitting beside her in class, walking beside her between lessons, and waiting outside classrooms just so they could leave together.
.✦ ݁˖ sweetheart would constantly straighten his crooked tie, smooth down his messy robes, and brush leaves out of his hair after walks around the grounds. ron pretended to complain every time, but secretly loved every second of it.
᭝ ᨳଓ ՟ ron would instinctively stand between sweetheart and anything remotely dangerous. angry hippogriffs, exploding potions, peeves flying overhead—it didn’t matter. he was already pulling her behind him before thinking twice. even though he would get hurt in the process..
᭝ ᨳଓ ՟ sweetheart adored knitting little scarves and mittens for everyone around christmas. ron wore his constantly, even if the colors didn’t match his uniform in the slightest.
.✦ ݁˖ every visit to the burrow for holidays ended with molly weasley insisting sweetheart stay longer, eat another slice of pie, and take leftovers home. after the third visit, she was already treating her like another daughter.
᭝ ᨳଓ ՟ ron absolutely melted whenever sweetheart held his hand first. no matter how many times it happened, he still looked down at their intertwined fingers with the biggest grin.
᭝ ᨳଓ ՟ whenever ron doubted himself or compared himself to his brothers, sweetheart would remind him of every reason she admired him until his ears turned bright red and he had to hide his face behind his hands.
.✦ ݁˖ everyone expected sweetheart’s kindness to soften ron, but somehow the opposite happened too. she laughed louder, teased more often, and became just mischievous enough that fred and george proudly declared she’d been accepted into the family long before ron ever proposed, they were 2000% sure it would happen though, one day or another.
was rushing while making this, sorry ron 😔
