Dreading (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

fearing

'dreading' is the definition.
('fear' can be a synonym of 'dread')

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for fearing that I've seen before include "Nervous" , "Worried about" , "Dreading" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph and the Evening Standard.
