Lost & Found
A/N: Hello everyone another chapter of Necessary Escape. I am enjoying the feedback. Thank you to everyone who is reading and reviewing. I am trying to keep the update schedule frequent at least once a week like my other fictions but for some reason the chapters keep spewing out of me. This chapter will be about Sam & Paul and then the next will jump back to Jacob & Seth who are sitting outside in their cars.

~Billy's House~
They all sat huddled inside the house waiting for the inevitable situation to happen. The pack had already said their goodbyes to both Sue and Billy but they knew the two were holding out for their boys. The older members of the pack refused outright to go and look for them because they felt it was pointless.
"If they wanted to be found they would come home don't you think?" Jared questioned.
While the younger members understood what the boys felt and their reasoning behind leaving La Push all those years ago and had forgiven them already.
"Oh my goodness get over yourselves. This has nothing to do with us, it has to do with the fact that both their parents are dying and we have to make the effort to find them so they can say goodbye." Embry replied.
Leah and Rachel scoffed at Embry's statement because he clearly knew shit about family.
"They're cowards and my mom doesn't need him and neither does Billy."
"Leah's right let them rot where they are because clearly they are content in their lives not to care about ours."
"Wow you really are some selfish pieces of shit." Embry stated as he left Billy's house.
Rachel and Leah get pissed off and slap Sam and Paul to get their attentions.
"Aren't you going to do anything about that insolent asshole? He just called pieces of shit."
"He is entitled to say what he feels. You all act like we are family and shit but you wait until people are gone to say or do things. Stay away from Em. You may be girls and I can't do anything but I can sure protect him from you too." Quil glared at Sam and Paul who were still quiet.
"You know what this has gotten out of hand." Emily came downstairs from where Sue's room was.
"I could hear you bastards all the way upstairs. So now I want you all to leave I don't care where you all go but you can't stay here. Oh Leah and Rachel by the way leave Embry and Quil alone because they won't hit you but I will if you try and hurt them and that goes for you guys too." Emily stated matter-of-factly as she kicked them all out.
Sam and Paul had tuned out the whole argument because they were tired of the same old arguments and threats from the same two people. Dropping the girls off, the boys head to Forks and enter their usual bar and open a tab for a long night of drinking and memory lane.
~Sam~
As I sat next to Paul, I remember the night I found out that he had been dating Jacob for four years before he imprinted on his sister. It was a quiet patrol night nothing out the ordinary, the boys had been gone for about 8 months and Paul had disappeared to his meadow and fallen asleep after his patrol.
Flashback:
"uhhhh don't stop" I skidded to a stop when an image of Jacob laying on his back moaning popped into my mind. Realizing it was Paul's memories because he was asleep, I phased and told everyone to stay human until I otherwise stated. Once everyone agreed I searched for Paul and located him in this area of the forest I had never been to. I nudged him awake and replayed what I had seen. Afterwards, Paul couldn't look me in the eye.
"Don't be ashamed about who you love. I love someone who is 'supposedly' wrong for me but I love HIM none the less."
"Him?"
At his question, millions of pictures of Seth flowed through my head ranging from harmless and innocent to downright dirty. The night was spent talking about how we felt about the men we love and lost because of an involuntary act. In that meadow, we realized that we were indeed kindred spirits unable to be who we want to be or be with who we want to be with.
End Flashback
"Do you think we should try and find them, Sam? It won't be for selfish reasons this time."
"I honestly don't know what to do. I feel like on one hand they have the right to say goodbye but on the other I am so angry that they left in the first place."
"I understand."
With that conversation ended we moved onto discussing the pack and the next generation of shifters being born by our brothers but not by us.
"Rachel is still unwilling to try and get pregnant. She is so focused on her career and herself even after fucking sixteen years. I want to be a parent and I think I would be a great father but I don't think I will ever will. It so un-fucking-fair! Embry is right you know the bitch is selfish. I don't blame him for leaving and making her take responsibility for Billy and the sad part is I think if Jakey was here, Billy would be very healthy."
"You don't think she is doing this shit on purpose? You're angry be careful Paul. Words said in anger are never good."
"IN ANGER! Of course I'm fucking angry. I lost the man I love for some ungrateful bitch who purposely prevents us from having children did I tell you what I found out the other day? She had a hysterectomy took out the only way to get pregnant. And who are you to talk? You have a wife who refuses to stop being a shifter so you can have children. She would rather stay young and beautiful then give something to the man she claims to love."
Sam growls not as a warning but because he realizes Paul's right. No other words were said the rest of the evening as the boys sat in a solemn silence and reflected on what they had learned that evening.
~Paul~
After, I left Sam and headed home Rachel was still awake and waiting for me.
"Where the hell have you been?"
"Out."
"Out where?"
"What do you want, Rachel?"
"I want you to make sure that no one goes to look for them and that they never come back here."
"Why? Rachel you are so cold hearted."
Paul turns to leave and hears Rachel threatening divorce if he walks out. I don't have time for this bullshit.
Heading over to Embry and Quil's apartment he knocks and the door and they let him crash for the night.
~Billy's House~
~A Week Later~
~3rd Person~
It had been a week since anybody had been allowed in the house and this was the first time they had been back. Apparently, during the time they were banned from the house Charlie and Emily had called Carlisle and asked for his help. Now the pack and the family wait for him to arrive and see what he can do for Sue and Billy. An hour later they hear a knock and let in Carlisle and his wife Esme. They both examine Sue and Billy and return to the family room.
"Hello, sorry for my rudeness earlier but the symptoms described over the phone required my urgent attention. I am going to run some tests and after they come back I will call you all over to Forks or Seattle depending on the ailments and we will treat them at one of the hospitals. If anything changes between now and then please do not hesitate to call." Carlisle stated as he and his wife retreat from the house.
After they escort the Cullens over the boundary line, the wolves return to see the girls fighting with Charlie and Emily about contacting or locating Jacob and Seth.
"Oh my god! Why does everyone keep mentioning them?" Leah screamed before storming up the stairs to her mother's room.
"They are not allowed here." Rachel retorted before walking to her father's room.
"Those two bitches grind my gears so fucking much. I swear the damn imprint fucked you up, Sam and I pray brother that she loves you better than she does Seth." Emily states.
"I am going to the store. Will be back shortly." Emily storms off when she sees the girls return in the room.
"Okay this discussion is getting ridiculous. If Charlie wants to use his resources to locate them he is allowed. He has every right to do so as Sue's husband. No of us will stop you Charlie." Sam says to Charlie as he sees Charlie retreating form before the door closes.
"Furthermore all of this arguing will stop henceforth. I am not afraid to use an alpha order on the pack. As far as you two ladies are concerned I know that you are angry but how do you think you mom and dad will feel about you behavior right now. The way you are both acting is disgusting. NO one wants to be around you and it is your own personal faults." Sam instructs as he goes and sits on the couch.
"Shall we discuss the issue of going to find them calmly?" Jared suggests.
With a nod from Sam the pack all sit down and start discussing why they should and why they shouldn't go look for them. It starts to get heavy again and people start yelling at each other until they hear two distinct cars turning in the driveway and ten heartbeats.
"Hold up we're you expecting relatives?"
The girls both shake their heads no.
"Why is someone coming?" Rachel questions the boys in response to their question looking at Leah and Rebecca confusingly.
"Yeah."
Turning back to the conversation at hand Jared is shaking visibly as well as Quil and Em.
"You all act like you fucking care but you don't you all don't know what it means to be family. It means to be there through thick and thin. But what do I know I am just the bastard of the res." Em screams at Jared.
Jared points out the fact they left for some unknown reason and only left some flimsy letter to explain their actions. At the thought of their own personal letters Sam and Paul begin to become frustrated too because they realize Jacob and Seth didn't leave the pack they left Sam and Paul. Now they were pissed and started to see what Jared was saying at making sense.
"They don't deserve to say goodbye they left us. Does anybody else remember that?" Paul and Sam yell at the others.
Embry and Quil were shock to see Paul and Sam's change of heart and then caught on to the truth of the matter and started getting madder themselves but not at Jake and Seth because they are only victims in this situation. They fell in love clearly and were hurt by those who were supposed to love them in turn.
"What the hell does it matter these are their parents they would want to know. I bet you would wanna know if it was your parents." Embry retorted to the duo.
They notice the cars are no longer running and two of the ten heartbeats are beating faster and then Quil picks up on the scents he would recognize anywhere.
"It doesn't matter anymore because they are already here." Quil states matter-of-factly.
