Nessa:
Because he is pretty unwilling to admit to himself, at that point, 
that he misses Ron.  I'm sure that everyone has had an argument with 
a good friend, and been so angry or hurt that you can't see how you 
can ever make up with them.

Pippin:
> He tells her he's been working on the egg clue
> He tells her he's been practicing occlumency

Nessa:
Because he doesn't want her to be disappointed in him.  IMHO, Harry 
respects Hermione's opinion of him beyond anyone else's, and doesn't 
want to lose her reciprocal respect.
