A/N: Sorry this took so long! I had writer's block, Christmas break, and I postponed this story to work on my Christmas one. Oh, yeah, read that if you haven't already! It's called A Very Curtis Christmas. I know you'll love it! Okay, onto the story!

Darry POV

Holly and I have been together for a few months now, and we were just sitting on the couch and holding each other and kissing. I felt a lot better than I had in a long time. Holly suddenly sat up.

"What's wrong?" I asked. She sighed.

"I don't know, Darry. I've just been thinking… I mean, I love you, but…"

"What?"

"Something just doesn't feel right." My heart dropped. What was she saying? She couldn't be breaking up with me… no! I can't take that again! I just can't! I let myself fall in love with her because I trusted her. She can't just leave me now! And what does she mean by 'something doesn't feel right'? She's loved me since we first met; what's wrong now? I guess she must have saw how distressed I was because she started rubbing my back gently.

"Darry, sweetheart, I'm not breaking up with you…" I let out a sigh of relief. "It's just, well; I feel like… like I'm cheating for you or something."

"Huh?" What on earth was that supposed to mean?

"Well, it's just that… I'm your social worker. We shouldn't have this kind of relationship. If someone found out about us…"

"Then just quit your job and find a new one."

"That's the thing. I don't want to do that because as long as I'm your social worker, it's like I'm protecting you guys from being split up. It's not like there's any good reasons for that to happen, but with that neighbor of yours you told me about, and a social worker like Mr. Richards, you could be split up faster than you can say, 'I didn't mean to', even if your brothers were only just one minute late for curfew. I don't know what to do, Darry."

I thought about it for a minute. What did it matter? We didn't deserve to be split up. And since I had barely escaped losing my brothers because of when Pony ran away, we've all been careful about everything. Holly was sort of protecting us, but it wasn't cheating. But on the other hand, there would be problems if someone found out that I was dating her. No one knew that we were together except for the gang. But then I remembered. Someone else did know. And it's someone we're not particularly friends with. And that someone is none other than that Soc that hates me and used to date Holly. Chris Williams.

A/N: Sorry that was so short! I was going to extend this chapter, but I just really felt that that was an awesome ending sentence! Don't kill me please! I promise it won't take as long to update this time. I won't make you guys wait very long, okay? Oh, and today's Darry's birthday! Happy Birthday, Darry! :D
