In the sixth, I do not think that Ron doesn't know what Hermione feels for him. By the fifth book though, Ron's attitude suggests that he has become aware of his feelings. But as PoA makes it clear, he has absolutely no grasp on what he feels for her, for that we need to wait for the Yule Ball, and even there there's still a solid level of denial. During the second year, he already manifests romantic feelings toward her. Ron goes from being mean to Hermione to becoming her best friend. Hermione -> Already in the first book, we see an arc with these two. She also shows repeatedly that she's aware of Ron's insecurities but doesn't really act accordingly with the exception of her complimenting Ron about his idea of the fangs before the battle, could they have possibly talked about what happened with the locket? I suppose the real end of the arc, even if we jump from a first kiss to marriage, is her marrying Ron and having children with him. She does kiss Ron first but considering that they are three minutes away from a very likely death I don't think it can be considered character development. In HBP she invites Ron to the Christmas party which is surely an improvement but she remains very vague and in fact, we all know what happens. She always seemed pretty aware of her feelings but not open to making the first move. She seems to officially develop romantic feelings for him during CoS because, by the start of PoA, she obviously likes him. Ron -> I don't think her view of Ron changes much frankly, she was always more susceptible to his behavior.
