Hey, BL manhwa lovers! If you’re obsessed with Nerd Project (aka 너드 프로젝트), get ready for more dorm-room drama and heart-fluttering tension in Nerd Project Chapter 54. This steamy college yaoi follows Luke, the hot-headed jock reeling from a messy breakup with his girlfriend Stacy, who’s totally smitten with the adorably geeky Andrew. Blaming the “nerdy stud” for stealing her attention, Luke ends up roomies with Andrew—broke, bitter, and stuck in a forced proximity that’s turning hate into something way steamier.
What Happened in Nerd Project Chapter 53?
In the awkward relationship between Luke and Andrew in Nerd Project Chapter 53, the uncomfortable energy between the two spins out of control following a raucous dorm party that leaves everyone perplexed about their emotions—and possibly pushing a few boundaries. Immediately after the flirtatious vibe of the previous chapter, the story immediately goes into the morning after, with Luke waking groggy on the floor of their collective room, his head pounding as though he has been struck by a runaway dumbbell on his jock years.
Andrew is already up, playing with his track gear in the corner, acting like he is concentrating on lacing his sneaker, but his cheeks are still sporting pink after whatever happened the previous night. As you can see, the party had been organized by their scrungy dorm mates to end midterms, and the beer was free-flowing (which it was).
In an effort to be cool after his months of his nerdy project of developing into real crushes, Luke then dared Andrew to a stupid drinking game—truth or dare with a twist of bad karaoke. Things began as laughs, but they got hot, as Andrew, after liquidating a few drinks, challenged Luke to explain his reason behind staring at him during late-night studies.
Luke, drunk and daring, muttered about the dorky smile of Andrew being hotter than Stacy ever was, and he made the bombshell that he is no longer faking the friend thing. Andrew, the silent one who is more often than not in his textbooks, shocked everyone (including himself) by whispering in the ear of Luke during a slow song that he is not as straight as he thinks.
What will Happen in Nerd Project Chapter 54?
In Nerd Project Chapter 54 (Season 2), what was already clogged air in the dorm room gets even more polluted as Luke, half-drunkenly, confesses to Andrew that he was his world. The book begins with the two sitting on the unkempt bed of Luke, sunlight pouring through the blinds, each too embarrassed to glance at the other following such a forehead-banging experience.
Luke is still feeling dizzy, his jock brain struggling to digest the fact that he is no longer loathing the nerdy stud but is now anxious to have him in his arms all morning. First to disturb the silence, Andrew, who is fiddling with his glasses, queries, What are we now? He speaks in a low tone, yet a hopeful overture, which makes the heart of Luke do a funny jump.
Luke throws his eyes, throws the phone away, and says, “Screw her, I am not playing anymore.” It is a big step on his part taking Andrew as his replacement to the party of the past, but still Andrew is suspicious; he knows that Luke looked after him when Stacy invaded the party, but it felt fine, not suffocating. In the present, they resolve to get breakfast in the campus diner to have a face-to-face conversation.
Still on waffles and on inexpensive coffee, Luke confesses that he is afraid of messing everything up, not to mention that he has never liked a guy before. Andrew, flushing, confesses to having his own fear: he has been burned by love interests who perceived him as a safe nerd with whom to experiment. Their hands tumble towards the syrup, and they laugh, relieving the tension.
