Author's Note – Okay, I'm going to do the Bella walking in on Edward and Jacob thing, but not till I get my other chapters up first since I'll have to write that part for you. : )

Also, I plan to warn all of you before the Wolf Jacob/Edward chapter, so that those who chose to can skip it, but it is pretty obvious when it will happen. : )

Chapter 4 The Phone Call

Sam was sitting on the couch at Emily's, his arm around her shoulders as he watched Paul and Jared arguing about something trivial.

The rest of the pack, except Jacob, were sprawled out over the room in various positions.

He was surprised when the phone rang, picking it up quickly.

"Hello?"

"Sam," Billy's voice said darkly. "We have a problem."

The pack all stopped what they were doing to stare at him questioningly.

"Are you alone?"

Sam stood up, walking out of the house so that he wouldn't be overheard.

"I am now. What is it that you don't want the pack to know?"

He heard a sigh on the other end of the phone, then the squeaking wheels of Billy's chair as he pushed himself around the floor of his kitchen slowly.

"They'll find out eventually, I know. I just thought that it would be easier if they didn't know at first. Jake is gone, Sam."

"Gone?" he said in surprise. "Gone where? Did he go out for the day or something?"

"No," Billy answered heavily. "He left with Edward Cullen after I walked in on them kissing."

Sam sighed at his words.

"Not that again."

"He said that you knew already. That the pack knew. Why didn't you tell me? Jacob is my son, Sam."

"Yeah, we've known for about a week or so. I know that, and I'm sorry, but what would you have had me do? Just blurt out that your son thinks that he's in love with a Cullen? And, as if that was not bad enough, a male Cullen? I was hoping that he would get over him when he imprints."

"And if he doesen't? Jake told me that Cullen is his imprint. Could he have mistaken that feeling? The depths of his emotions are pretty deep. He was crying when he left with him."

"I don't know. I'll talk to him, Billy. I'm sure that he'll come to his senses soon."

"I'd appreciate you speaking to him. He seems pretty shaken by all of this. Just… try not to push him to hard, okay? I don't think that he can take much more. If he needs a few days to figure out that he's wrong, I think that it would be best to let him do that on his own. It would be better if he wasn't distracted when he comes back to the pack."

"Yeah, that's probably a good idea. I'll call you after I talk to him, alright?"

"Thanks, Sam. I really appreciate this."

"It's no problem. Jake is like my family now to. Talk to you later, Billy."

"Yeah."

Sam sighed as he hung up, his eyes worried as he walked back into Emily's house slowly.

What was he going to tell the rest of the pack?
