This is a highly underrated scene, where Romione fans might step in and use it as another corroboration. But in my opinion, that’s not really the case.
Look at these two takes. Hermione stares at Harry with such caretaking attention, as if she’s more worried about his life than her own (which can also be supported by the “I’ll go with you” scene, but that’s another story).
In this scene, she grabs Ron’s hand almost unconsciously. To me, that feels more like a comfort reflex under stress than an explicitly romantic gesture. The scene itself is rather ambiguous, but my interpretation is basically: “I’m worried for your safety because I love you.”
What do you think?
