There's no mistaking it: Damon and Bonnie have major chemistry on "The Vampire Diaries." The more we watched them adjust to their weird new life in the 1994 Prison World last season -- making pancakes and doing crossword puzzles together -- the more we fell in love with their friendship.

Damon and Bonnie had never been best friends. In fact, Bonnie pretty much hated Damon until Season 3. (She hated all vampires, TBH.) But Season 6 changed everything. For the first time we saw Damon and Bonnie work together. They were each other's rocks in the Prison World. Then, upon their release, Damon was faced with an unimaginable decision: save Bonnie and lose Elena for the next 60 years or let Bonnie die and get the love of his life back. In the end, Damon chose Bonnie and that cemented Bamon's friendship as one of our favorite dynamics on the show.
