Everyone knows Harry is tiny for a boy his age. He was usually the pick of the litter to squeeze into tiny spaces to retrieve lost or fallen objects. He didn’t mind it, nor did he mind closed spaces because of his time spent at the Dursley’s under the stairs. Sure, he’ll get the occasional panic attack in tight enclosed spaces for too long, but it’s nothing he hasn’t handled himself before.
When Harry spends Christmas at the Weasley’s with all of Ron’s siblings there plus Hermione, it’s a tight squeeze. Hermione obviously rooms with Ginny, but Molly didn’t really find a reason for the boys to move so they stayed where they were and Harry would just squeeze in Ron’s room with Ron and the twins. They were informed of it during dinner the first night of Christmas break.
“Well, I don’t see why the boys should move. It’ll be a bit of a squeeze as Charlie already shares a room with Bill and Percy already has the smallest room. Harry, dear, you’re gonna have to share with the twins and Ron since their room will be able to fit all of you,” Molly apologetically stated as she stared at Harry with a sorry gaze. The boy, bless his heart, smiled softly and understandingly back at the Weasley matriarch.
“It’s quite alright, Molly. I’m tiny, I can fit in there.” Harry let out a slight chuckle as Molly fondly rolled her eyes at the raven-haired boy.
“I dunno, mate. The twins have a lot of stuff for their pranks and it takes up a lot of room. I have my books scattered everywhere too. There isn’t really much room. Why can’t he stay with-,” Ron’s rambling was cut off by Harry’s joking hush.
“That’s fine, Ron. I used to sleep under the stairs at the Dursley’s,” Harry supplied nonchalantly as if that was the most normal thing in the world and spooned another mouthful of mashed potatoes into his mouth. As he chewed, his ears picked up on the sudden silence at the table. He lifted his emerald eyes only to be met with gazes of a mixture of shock, anger, sadness, and curiosity. His head turned as he heard Ron clear his throat.
“You slept where, now?” Ron’s voice was so quiet, had it not been silent, Harry wouldn’t have been able to hear it. His eyes darted to the rest of the Weasley household and Hermione. “Uhh,” Harry started as he cautiously put his spoon down, “the, um, stairs. There was a, ah, a cupboard of sorts under there. It was where I slept up until I got my Hogwarts letter.” The tiny boy’s voice slowly grew quieter as he spoke and his fingers started to pull on the ends of his sweater that Molly had knitted him.
The table was quiet for awhile and Harry started to feel uncomfortable, regretting ever saying anything to begin with. Unable to bear the silence any longer, Harry quietly coughed and pushed his chair away from the table. It was like the noise snapped everyone out of their trance as they looked at Harry slowly backing away from the table. His eyes darted anywhere but the people in the room as he stumbled over his words to escape the awkwardness and impending pity from them.
“I’m just gonna go, um, set up my sleeping bag. In the room. I, uh, I’ll meet you guys up there. Night. Thank you for dinner, Molly. It was delicious as always.” And with that, the little boy dashed away from the kitchen and into the bedroom where he’ll be residing in.
The second he heard the door gently shut because no Harry doesn’t have a fear of loud sudden sounds what, Ron bolted out of his chair with his wand in hand and his face carved in absolute and terrifying fury.
All hell broke loose.
Bill was at the opposite end of the table to Arthur so he was in Ron’s path to get to the door. The eldest Weasley nearly tipped his chair over to catch Ron by his waist and pull him back. Shouting commenced as everyone tried to keep Ron at bay and going to AK those wretched relatives of Harry’s. Bill eventually had to wrestle Ron to the floor, but even with his strength, it wasn’t enough. With Bill pinning Ron on his stomach on the floor, Charlie and the twins restrained his arms and legs. Ginny and Hermione sat on Bill’s back to keep them both down. Molly and Arthur were wrestling the wand out of Ron’s hand as Ron continued to shout profanities over everyone’s yelled attempts to calm him down.
“No! I will not calm down, Ginny! Do not even-,”
“Ron, for Merlin’s sake! Let go of the damn wand right no-,”
“Ronniekins, you have to calm down-”
“Or mum will hex you into next week!”
“Oh for Merlin’s sake, someone knock him out already!”
“Don’t you dare, Fre-,”
An audible thunk could be heard from Ron’s head as his struggle ceased and he became limp on the floor underneath Bill’s, Ginny’s, and Hermione’s weights. Everyone breathed a collective sigh of relief as Molly fell onto her rear with Arthur supporting her after they let go of Ron’s wand that was in an iron grip. It was a surprise it didn’t break with the force they had put into trying to pry it out of the red-head’s hand.
Ginny and Hermione carefully got off of Bill’s back and helped him sit up beside his unconscious younger brother. Everyone was panting, trying to regain their breath. The younger Weasley had an awful lot of sudden strength and it surprised everyone. Seems like he was much more protective of Harry than they thought.

Harry never met Ron on the train, and the result of that was that he was sorted into Slytherin around students he could tell mostly didn’t like him or his beliefs. Hermione and Ron had still be sorted into Gryffindor, and the troll still attacked Hermione, while she surived her time at Hogwarts was over as her parents pulled her out. While, Ron had to live with the fact that he was at fault for that, and used it to become a better person.
After the war, Harry and Ron end up working as Aurors together, and through their work stumble upon Hermione. Now, she could remember her short time at Hogwarts, and have continued with learning magic, or her parents could have her memories modified.
In the Aftermath of the Battle of the Department of Mysteries no one realized that the effects of Dolohov’s curse on Hermione, and the brain attack that Ron suffered would play much better roles. Everyone assumed that their scars would be all that was left of the battle. The brain attack awaken something in Ron, he is able to perform better at his magic and homework, but the side effects are odd and something he can’t control. While, Hermione’s magic seems in disarray, and explosive. The Trio knows somethings wrong, but no one else seems to notice or care.
What will Harry do to help is friends? What can even be done? He knows he can lose someone who is like a brother to him, and he can’t lose someone who he is falling in love with.
Even if he had the emotional depth of a teaspoon, Ron knew that he and Hermione wouldn't be good for each other long term. He thought that dating was something they had to get out of their system, and maybe jealousy would help Harry realize that those feelings weren't actually brotherly. But when Ron hears Hermione complain that he hasn't popped the question yet he starts investigating. Hermione had never wanted to get married this early. It turns out Ginny has been potioning Harry and Hermione.
Ron accidentally mentally time travels back to his Hogwarts years. Finding and destroying the horcruxes early? Fine. Ruining Umbridge's career before she even thinks of stepping one foot into Hogwarts? A pleasure. Realizing that baby Hermione might be interested in him? Abort! Abort! Abort! At this age, she resembles their daughter Rose far more than the wife he remembers and that's just creepy. The only reasonable course of action is to try to set her up with Harry.

Hermione, who is engaged to Ron, is injured and the only cure is a potion that takes a number of rare ingredients, a couple of which they can't get in time. However there is a substitute. Harry, having been bitten by a basilisk and cured by phoenix tears, can use his blood in the potion instead. The problem is that the potion, with donated blood, would force a magical bond between the two people, the equivalent of marriage. Ron would rather her be alive and married to someone else than dead.
After the war, Harry finds that something changed in him when he died. It seems that having a horcrux attached to you suppresses much of your personalities and skills. He’s noticeably smarter, far more in control of his temper, and a lot more optimistic. Hermione notices this change as well, and finds that she is attracted to Harry more than she already was, impossible as that sounds.
Ron is at first glad of his friend’s change for the better. He is less glad of it when Hermione starts hogging her boyfriend all to herself. And people said he and Lavender were obnoxious...
Harry and Hermione find out that Ron has been feeding them love potions. The only problem is that Ron didn't know what he was doing, and is furious when he's confronted. Furious at his mom for misleading him, at his sister for trying to keep Harry and Hermione apart. His anger is so genuine that Harry and Hermione believe him.
