Harper's POV.

*The Mystic Falls Historical Society Volunteer Day at the Site of a New Public Park*

As a member of the National Honors Society, I was required to take part in the Historical Society's volunteer day. Our teacher-sponsor stationed each member at a different job, and I got stuck with running the snack and drink tables for the volunteers. Which isn't so bad. I got stuck doing the exact same job at graduation last year.

I watch with suspicion as my dad, Mason, and Sheriff Forbes talk amongst themselves at the dessert table in front of me.

I wonder what they're talking about. They seem real whispery.

After a while, Mason and my dad leave, leaving it as just Sheriff Forbes. Then Damon comes over to talk to her. It's really annoying not being able to hear anything they're saying, but, at least, Damon hasn't acknowledged my presence yet. Maybe it's finally gotten into his thick skull that I want nothing to do with him.

People come and go from the snack and drink tables, either wanting lemonade if they're thirsty or a cookie or Hawaiian sandwich if they're hungry. I also help myself every now and again when no one's looking. It really helps that some of the younger volunteers are running the lemonade table. All I have to do is supervise them, and they do the rest.

I'm standing behind the lemonade table with some of the kids when Mason walks over by himself. My dad is no longer with him. I wonder where my dad went.

Mason offers me a friendly smile before taking a cup of lemonade from Cyndy, one of the young volunteers.

"Thank you," he tells her.

"You're welcome," Cyndy responds politely.

I watch Mason walk under the pavilion where Damon approaches him. They start talking. Last I checked, Elena had told me that Mason had admitted to being a werewolf to Damon, and, in turn, Mason revealed to Damon that he knew he and Stefan were vampires. So I doubt things between them are very good right now.

After a bit, Mason walks off, and I watch as Stefan goes to talk with Damon.

I really wish I knew what they were talking about.

When they're done taking, Damon turns around and wanders up to the lemonade table. I avoid making eye contact and just let the kids take care of him.

Cyndy holds a cup of lemonade out to him. "Would you like some lemonade?" she asks.
