This could’ve been a great moment to hug, and Hermione terribly wanted to hug someone since no one except for Pansy came to see her out. Sure, it was really early in the morning, and everybody had better things to do, but she really hoped for something different. She would hug if it was someone closer to her, but Ron was dead, Harry was somewhere else, and there was no one else she could want by her side now. So Pansy and she just stood there awkwardly for a couple of moments.
