You were walking home from school exhausted. It has gotten so late because of the many activities you had to finish.

As you walked along the quiet road, you heard a noise coming from a small alley.

"Let's get outta here before someone finds us."

Your heart skipped a beat and quickly hid in the bushes. 5 guys rushed out of the alley. After they were gone, you cautiously made your way to the alley to see what they had been up to.

There, you saw Bryan Karl Armani. He was one of the most famous students in your school, along with his other Armani siblings. Popular with the girls but disliked by the boys. According to rumors, Bryan was often the reason for breakups between couples at school.

He was sitting on the ground unconscious. Those five guys earlier must have ganged up on him. You went closer and checked his pulse. This is bad… You could barely feel it!

You didn't hesitate to give him CPR. But you couldn’t focus at all. Why are his lips so soft?!

Suddenly, you felt a hand on your waist. You immediately pulled back and saw Bryan’s eyes open, staring intently at you.

He opened his mouth, and his first words were...

"Your lips are so dry."
