Hurt; yearned (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ached

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'hurt' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)

'yearned' is the second definition.
('ache' can be a synonym of 'yearn')

(Other definitions for ached that I've seen before include "Yearned" , "suffered" , "Felt a dull pain" , "Did long" , "caused discomfort" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
