"November Rain"
It was November and raining. The pack was patrolling. Well three of the members. With what Jacob had heard of these Volturi people Bella went and saved Edward from, more and more patrols were issued. Leah, Jake, and Paul circled around the perimeter, large paws pounding into the muddy ground.
'Damn Jake! You and your little leech lover' Paul thought bitterly
'Yeah cause Leah's so perfect' Jake sneered back and Paul growled out loud.
Paul and Leah had been dating for the past few weeks or so. It just happened suddenly, and neither seemed happier ever.
'Fuck you back Jake!' Was Leahs response
They continued to run around the territory. Nothing smelled different. Just fresh november rain and cold. A howl echoed in the air. Sam's calling us all back it seemed. It was a howl that was only a half, he wanted us to return but there was somthing more as well.
Paul, Leah and Jake looked at eachother with pained looks and sprinted back to the Lahote residence. They hit the tree line in no time, shifting and clothing themselves. Paul took off ahead noting Cheif Swans cruiser out in front of his home. Sam stood with the older gentelmen as he approached.
"Paul." Sam greeted idly but the younger teen ignored him facing Cheif Swan with a confused look.
"Chef Swan. What are you doing here? Whats going on?" He asked in a hard voice. He wasnt angry just confused and wary. The last time he'd seen the officer was when he had bailed out his dad from a DUI.
"Paul - Son I hate to be the one to half to tell you this but. There was an accident. Your father he-"
"My dad! What happened? Is he ok?" Paul interupted frantically, he was shaking like he would shift, and Leah placed a comforting hand on his shoulder. He calmed but gave Charlie a pained look.
"No son he isnt. He was drunk and not wearing his seat belt. He hit a tree and went through the windsheild. But Doctor Cullen said he wouldve died on impact. Im sorry. There will be people coming to talk to you. And i've talked to Billy and Sam here. They'll help you with all the arrangments. Im sorry again." Charlie said lowly and then turned and left. His cruiser sloshing puddles down the drive.
Paul stood frozen, unable to move. So many years, of living with his fathers alcoholism, and the lost presence of his mother. Now the only family he had was gone? How was he supposed to accept that. He was a wolf. A noble protector of the tribe. He fought vampires, was specially designed to kill them. And somthing like a car accident had taken the only family he'd had. There had been nothing he couldve done.
"Paul. . ." Leah murmered quietly, embracing him from behind.
"Paul. Its gonna be ok. I'll get the others to cover yours and Leahs shifts for a couple of weeks. Youll get through this." Sam said supportivly. Leah felt Paul growl, but nod weakly.
Sam motions for Jacob to follow him, who'd been quiet since the news. He obeys. And the two shift and exit through the tree line.
Paul immediatly wiggles free of the female wolfs embrace stalking into the house. Leah sighs and follows. Knowing he dosent need to be alone. The male wolf is curled on the sofa when she enters. A blanket covering his form. She crawls atop the still form. And waits.
After a while she feels him sigh, and then he lifts the blanket from his head, and Leah knows this is weepy Paul. He looks like a kicked puppy.
"Oh Paul." She whispers and wraps her tan arms around his neck. He sniffles a bit but she remains dry. Even in death there's no tears from him.
"He's gone Lee." He whispers back.
"I know baby. I'm so sorry. I know he was all you had left."
"Yeah and no. I knew that his drinking would be the end of him. But i'm not alone. I still have you." He pulls back and eyes her intensly. She smiles and kisses him.
He puts all the pain and heartache into the kiss. Their mouths moving frantically. And when they break apart, theyre out of breath and panting softly.
"Your gonna be ok Paulie. We'll get through this together." She smiles.
"Yeah. We will." He nods.
"Together!" She presses holding him tight.
"Together." He murmurs kissing her neck softly. The november rain padding quietly against the roof overhead. A silent soul keeping watch upon the lovers.
