You could write it all down and give it to her or read it to her or you could write her a letter and give it her. I know this is not easy for you so the best thing might be to say whatever you need to so you don't have any regrets.
It was very hard for me to tell my T about my attachment and how I envy her and my transference. It was rewarding to talk about it and I felt much better after getting it all out and seeing that she still accepts me no matter what. You are not wrong for how you feel. Attachment to a T is normal. Feelings are not right or wrong, they just are. I hope you can share all of this with your T and you can feel somewhat better. You could ask her how she feels about hugs and see what she says that way you are not directly asking for one. If she says she is fine with them you could ask for a hug at your last session before her break. I am pulling for you and I hope you can find some peace with this difficult situation.

It's better to tell T. I've been dealing with this for about a year. I keep postponing telling her about this. And after this month I can't talk to her about this for at least 5 months. This whole year I could just say to myself ''I can wait to next week or longer. It isn't necessary to tell her now. It can wait.'' And I could email her any time I wanted, she only aswers email during workhours.
5 months without any contact from her
I'll try to write everything in a letter. With very difficult stuff I can express myself better on paper than with talking. And then I'll give it at our session this Friday. I've also two other things we need to talk about. Ugh. Al this stuff about T's (my T, replacement T and Pdoc) comes on top of the things I went in therapy for. I think/worry about it so much.
