You know what really makes my heart glow? 

Ron thinks he’s the least important person in the trio, and that he’s the expendable one. The one that no-one would miss, in comparison to his two brilliant friends. 

BUT Harry and Hermione love Ron SO MUCH that he cannot even begin to imagine how important he is to both of them; 

Harry loves Ron in a way that almost goes beyond friendship- not in a romantic way, but he honestly considers Ron the person he would miss most- the person he could not survive without. They’re brothers, platonic life-partners and soul mates, and always will be. 

Hermione loves Ron in a romantic way (of course) but she also loves Ron as her best friend. Because he gets her more than anyone else (yes, including Harry). Hermione sees beyond the gangly redhead with the second-hand clothes and loud mouth that so many see- she sees the bravest, kindest, funniest, most wonderful man she could ever hope to meet. He’s her perfect other-half. Perfectly imperfect, and all the better for it.  

Ron isn’t really aware of it, but the boy who lived and the brightest witch of the age cannot fathom a world without him, and it’s just so wonderful to see how much they love him.
