Harry's POV

I truthfully believe that there is nothing more painful in this world than loosing a child or a parent. Liam had lost both and yet, he still stood tall, I couldn't understand how he could after everything he had been though. Liam and Jamie had laid their only child to rest and they both showed so much strength that it shocked me.

What bothered me the most about that day was what I took sight of later that night. Something that I never told Jade or Liam. I think back to this day a lot, and I wonder if I should've told them after I had seen it, or I wonder if it would've made the situation worse.

It was nine at night, Emily was asleep on the couch, Jade laid asleep beside me on Liam's living room floor. I had always had a problem with falling asleep at other peoples homes every since I was little, I'm not sure if it was the fact that it wasn't my home or if it was that I was uncomfortable.

I could hear the sound of someone walking towards the living room, slowly and softly. I knew that it had to be Jamie because Liam had went to work around four that evening. Jamie walked around Jade and I, and went to the front door. I could hear the sound of the door opening followed by the sound of heavy foot steps.

The sound of their steps made their way to the kitchen and to the office in the back of the house. I slowly moved my arm from beneath Jade and sat up, I grabbed one of Jade's cigarettes and her lighter and lit it up. I quietly made my way onto my feet and walked across the living room and into the kitchen.

As I stepped into the kitchen I asked myself mentally, 'why am I so curious of what she's doing?' I knew I wanted to see but I felt as if I was being extremely nosey but I then shrugged my shoulders and walked towards the office.

The door was wide open and within a second I saw Jamie on her knees and the back of man with his trousers around his ankles. My first thought was to cause a scene, make a sound of any kind so that Jade would wake up but then I realized that if I did so, it would cause problems.

With that, I turned away and walked back to through the kitchen and into the living room. I sat down on the floor beside Jade, finished my cigarette and laid down beside her. I wrapped my left arm around her stomach and kissed the top of her head. At least with all the problems that had happened and was still occurring, I had Jade.

A half hour later I heard the sound of the front door shut softly. I laid and pretended as if I was asleep but Jamie knew something was up. "Harry." She said softly. "Are you still awake?"

"I am." I replied before opening my eyes, and sitting up.

"Could we talk in my room?"

"Yeah." I said as I got off of the living room floor.

Jamie begun walking towards her bedroom, and I followed in suit. I had never technically been inside of Jamie and Liam's bedroom so it seemed strange to me because Liam had always told me to stay out of his and Jamie's room, I guess it was a personal thing.

Once we were inside the bedroom, I sat on the edge of the bed and Jamie sat beside me. "We're gonna have to whisper, I don't want Jade or Emily hearing this."

"Okay." I replied.

"And this has to stay between us, if I hear it from anyone, I will know that it came from you and I will lie about it."

"Alright."

"That man is named Leonard Womac, Liam calls him Uncle Leo. I have been having an affair with him for the past two and a half years. Him and I were friends with benefits before I met Liam. I stopped the affair when Liam and I had been dating for six months, but I couldn't keep myself away so I continued it."

"Liam has no idea?"

"None at all. The worst thing is that I'm not sure if Lance was his or is it was Liam's child."

A/N: Hi loves, I am so sorry I promised last week that I would update by Thursday but a lot of things happened. I had a very important court date to go to and on top of it all, I have a bad tooth infection that wont be taken care of until the eighth of this month, unfortunately.

I am truly trying to update as much as I can, and I hope that you all understand that. I sort of feel as if I am losing readers, and it discourages me to write. I post and I receive votes but not many comments, on the last chapter I only got two comments. So with that, I'm hoping that I can get my readers active again.

Trivia of the Chapter:
1.) What song gave me the inspiration to write Savior? (Hint: It is one of the songs in Chapter One of Savior)
2.) Where did Emily and Jade met?
3.) What was Louis' motivation for the bet?
4.) What was Jade's job in the beginning of Savior?
5.) What is Emily's last name?

The one who gets all the answers correct gets a dedication in the next chapter. Previous chapter is dedicated to my favorite guy, @wolfpac84. Happy birthday, Doll!

I love you all.
