In my experience sideways hinting doesn't work that well. T will likely ask you directly what you mean, or possibly just ignore it until you are willing to be more direct yourself. I would just try to talk to her about how scared you are to tell her what you need.
 I know exactly what you mean by being frozen with fear.
