He looked at the spoon as it landed on his desk, because it was easier to focus on than gorgeous guy. His cheeks were burning now when Axel complimented his room and he realised that he was actually looking around. Yeah, he was a nerd. he knew that, no reason to tell him.

I just like science. Damn, he wanted to punch himself for that.
