Once we finally arrive Elena walks in with Stefan and me and Bonnie walk close behind with our arms linked.
"Hi mayor Lockwood." Elena greets him.
"Hey. Hey, guys, come on in."
"Thank you."
"Have fun."

"The founding families in mystic falls welcome you to the inaugural founders council celebration. Wow look it's the original guest registry. Look at all these familiar names." Elena reads to me and Stefan.
"Sheriff William Forbes, Mayor Benjamin Lockwood." She lists the names to us.
"Is that Damon Salvatore? And Stefan Salvatore?." Elena asks as she points out there names on the list.
"The original Salvatore brothers." All three of us turn to see Damon. Damon Ugh he is so confusing. He flirts with me and then becomes Caroline's boyfriends? Plus I haven't seen him since the game.
"Our ancestors. Tragic story, actually." He continues with Caroline's linked to him as he walks closer to us.
"We don't need to bore them with stories of the past."
"It's not boring Stefan. I'd love to hear more about your family." I say.
"Well, I'm bored. I want to dance." Caroline says.
"And Damon won't dance with me." She says playfully glaring at Damon.
"Will you two come dance with me?" She asks Stefan and Elena.
"Oh, uh.... I don't really dance." Stefan says.
"Oh sure he does. You should see him. Waltz, the jitterbug, the moonwalk. He does it all." Damon says.
"Do you want to dance,Elena?"
"Oh I'm not sure." She say reluctantly.
"Well sorry but I'm not going to take no for an answer." She grabs both there hands and drags them away.

"I want to apologise to you for being such a world-class jerk. The other night when I embarrassed you. There's no excuse."
I just stand there awkwardly and nod my head.
"So why does it always seem like your trying to punish Stefan?" I ask pretending that Caroline didn't tell me what he told her.
"Its all in the past. I don't even want to bring it up. But let's just say that the men in the Salvatore family have been cursed with sibling rivalry. And it all started with the original Salvatore brothers."
" The Salvatore name was practically royalty around here until the war. There was a battle here—-"
"The battle of willow creek?" I question.
"Right."
"I know we talked about it in class. Confederate soldiers fired a church with civilians inside."
"What the history books left out was He People that we're killed. They weren't there by accident.they were believed to be union sympathisers so some of the founders on the confederacy side back then wanted them rounded up and burned alive. Stefan and Damon had someone they loved very much in that church. And when they went to rescue her they were shot. Murdered in cold blood." Damon tells me the story.
"Well who was is the church that they wanted to save so badly?"
"A woman, I guess. Doesn't it always come down to the love of a woman."
We stare at each other for a second and share a smile.
"I'm sorry that you and Stefan have this thing between you but he has Elena and you have... Caroline so why don't you just let it go. I hope you two can work it out." I say with a smile.
"I hope so, too." He smiles back and his gaze lingers.
