Not doable with sed. Try
Code:
awk '
NR == FNR       {getline TMP
                 $1 = ""
                 T[$0] = TMP
                 next
                }
                {TMP = $0
                 sub ($1, "", TMP)
                }
TMP in T        {print
                 print T[TMP]
                }
 ' file[12]
