okay this is short fyi :)): 

Harry craned his neck, peering ahead to get a glimpse of the baked goods that were still available in the display case.  It was the middle of the lunch rush, and the press of the crowd obscured his view.  

“Probably just gonna get a croissant,” he said, biting his lip and bouncing on the balls of his feet.

“Hmm?” Louis blinked at Harry, brow furrowed like he hadn’t quite heard him.  Which made sense.  Harry had been mumbling.  He was nervous, and he had been mumbling.

“I’m — “ Harry started, shifting to the side a little to let other customers exit the store.  “I’m going to get a croissant, I think.”

“Oh,” Louis whispered, his head bobbing in understanding.  

“Yeah,” Harry sighed, cringing internally and staring forward at the specials board.  He didn’t know how he’d managed to end up going for a bite to eat with beautiful Louis from American Lit, but he knew for sure he was fucking it up.  All of his personality seemed to have evaporated, and it felt like he wasn’t even standing normally, his limbs suddenly unwieldy and unfamiliar.  

“So —“

“I used to be a baker!” Harry blurted, interrupting Louis and going crimson in the process.        

Ok here’s 11 facts about me:

Despite being quite self-aware I still suck at coming up with stuff for these things 

When I was 3 I got lost on a huge beach in Romania, basically just wandered off. It’s one of my clearest earliest memories. A local man and his son found me and brought me back to my very distraught parents and siblings. 

I'm patient and deal with stress quite well

Saw my first porn when i was 6/7. My friend’s brother had taped over her cartoon movie. We watched a bit, then just shrugged, put the tape where we found it and went back to playing with barbies.

I changed my name when I was 19 ... or just added a last name. That name/word was actually my nickname in high school. 

 My nickname in middle school was "Honolulu salad". It was because of my colourful personality and the fact that I often wore a hat that apparently looked like a Honolulu salad (a dish a local restaurant had I think) 

 I'm very into dreams and dream analysis. My most recurring dream is different variations of the world ending, which symbolizes change. 

 All my friends say I'm stubborn, but I have no idea what they're talking about ;) I just know when I'm right. 

 I've read the lord of the rings 9 or 10 times. I won a costume competition at the return of the king premiere where I dressed up as an orc. It was my first major fandom lasting for about 5-6 years or so. The next one was queer as folk and the third is the one I'm in now ❤  (fourth one is skam which I’m also currently in)

 I very rarely cry. My mum has said that I have a heart of stone 🖤 but she's just being dramatic.

I was a theatre kid in high school. I loved and still love being on the stage. 

1. I am currently doing my Masters in the UK, and its been interesting to live alone without family and figure myself out. I have no idea what im doing after i complete my Masters though. :/

2. I am fluent in English and Tamil. I can understand the slightest bit of Malay. I did learn German in my Undergrad days, but i lost touch.

3. I was a premature child, and gave my mum alot of grief during her pregnancy. the doctor would come in to check my heartbeat, and wouldnt be able to hear anything. They would then prepare the OT and bring my mum down, only to use the machinery there and realise that i am alive and still kicking in the womb. Apparently this happened quite a few times.

4. While growing up, i was the elder one and ended up taking care of all my younger cousins. Because of this, i ended up with alot of “maternal insticnts”, and now just get into Mother Hen mode whenever i see someone younger than me or someone precious i need to protect (see: Harry and Louis) .

5. I had golden-brown hair when i was young, and i used to get questioned quite frequently in primary school if i coloured my hair. Sadly, it just got darker through the years and its almost black now.

6. I can only count up to 8 in Hindi because thats how my dance teacher used to count. And i never bothered finding out what 9 and 10 are.

7. Mimi is actually my nickname. It came about when my parents used to ask me what my name is when i was young, and i would just reply Mimi, instead of my whole name. My full name is Meroshini, which means brightness or light in sanskrit.

8. I absolutely love dancing, listening to music and reading. I can always find solace in these three things.

9. Though i can be candid and loud with friends, i am an absolute introvert and it takes a lot of effort and courage for me to speak to new people (if i ever do). It doesnt help that i am socially awkward.

10. I am a proper Taurus when it comes to food and sleep. Nothing can come between me and food/sleep. Maybe except reading. That is the only thing i dont mind losing either for.

11. I used to think that i was a proper Potterhead, but then i went to a HP quiz night that my uni organised, and those people were HARDCORE! Way too intense. But yeah, I love TCP, Sterek and 1D. So I’m up for a chat about anything, anytime. :)

You are such an amazingly colorful person, Nina, I could just sit and read little trivias like these about you all day tbh. Slightly disappointed you didn't change your name to Honolulu Salad though... But, if you ever end up on Broadway at least you know what stage name to pick :) Thanks for doing this, love you loads <3

I saw them last November and couldn’t listen to anyone else for about a month after. Hah Brandon is amazing!

Awww! I know who Emmett Honeycutt is Now! Thanks to you. Still in Season 2 though ��
