♟️ The Nerd's Game 🏀 One played with strategy. One played with heart. Mason Brooks is the university's golden boy-a star basketball captain with charm to spare and a smile that can win over almost anyone. The only thing he can't seem to conquer? Statistics. Noah Carter is the complete opposite. A brilliant computer science student, chess champion, and unapologetic introvert, he'd rather spend hours solving impossible problems than dealing with people-especially arrogant athletes. When Mason is assigned mandatory tutoring to stay eligible for the season, Noah becomes the last person he wants to spend his afternoons with. What begins as a reluctant partnership quickly turns into sharp banter, unexpected friendship, and a rivalry of wits neither of them saw coming. As the lines between tutor and student begin to blur, Noah discovers that not everything can be solved with logic, while Mason learns that some hearts take patience, not charm, to win. Sometimes the hardest game isn't played on a basketball court... Or across a chessboard. Sometimes it's the one between two hearts.
