Elena, Caroline and Bonnie

This is the sister-like relationship between the cured vampire/human doppelgänger Elena Gilbert, the vampire Caroline Forbes, and the witch Bonnie Bennett.
Elena and Bonnie were originally best friends, while Caroline was closer to Bonnie, mainly due to being jealous of Elena. After Caroline's transformation into a vampire, her friendship with Bonnie deteriorated for a short time, but Elena was there for her, strengthening their friendship. Bonnie later accepted Caroline the way she was, and they quickly rekindled their close friendship. Unfortunately, on the night before graduation, Bonnie desperately attempted to bring Elena's brother Jeremy back to life using spirit magic, dark magic, and Expression magic all at the same time, and ultimately died from overuse of magic. Not wanting to hurt Caroline and Elena, Bonnie, as a ghost, forced Jeremy to keep her death a secret for the entire summer. Because the veil was down when Bonnie died, Bonnie was able to graduate with her friends with no one else the wiser. Once Caroline and Elena learned of Bonnie's death, they worked tirelessly to find a way to bring her back, eventually convincing a witch to give Bonnie the power to be the Anchor to the Other Side, allowing her to be a corporeal ghost so she could continue to live as a normal human would, though she also acted as a tollbooth to the Other Side, which brought complications.
After Markos tore his way out of the Other Side, it began falling apart, which not only threatened the residents of the supernatural purgatory with permanent extinction, but also Bonnie, as the Anchor. Once again, Bonnie attempted to keep Elena and Caroline from knowing about her imminent demise, though they eventually did find out and tried their best to stop her. In the end, they failed, as the Other Side completely collapsed and destroyed itself, taking Bonnie and Damon into 1994 Prison World.
After the events in Season Five, Elena and Caroline struggled to move on without Bonnie and Damon, however, Damon came back during Season Six, thanks to Bonnie. This motivated Elena, Caroline, and the rest of their friends to help bring Bonnie back from the Prison World Bonnie was stuck in. Eventually, Bonnie got out of the Prison World and reunited herself with Elena and Caroline shortly after reuniting herself with Damon first. Bonnie was surprised to find Caroline with her humanity off due to the death of her mother, but this barely effected their friendship and it more so effected and strained Elena and Caroline's friendship. Caroline finally turned her humanity back on after some help from Stefan, Elena, and Damon. Things were starting to look up, until Kai Parker came back with the new group of Heretics, witch-vampire hybrids that were brutal killers sent to another Prison World nearly a century ago. Due to Kai Parker wanting revenge on Bonnie for leaving him in another Prison World with the Heretics earlier in Season Six, Kai spelled Elena into a lifelong slumber and linked her life to Bonnie. When Bonnie dies a natural death, Elena would awaken. However, any spell or loophole Bonnie or the others tried to wake Elena up, it would kill both Bonnie and Elena. This forced Bonnie, Caroline, and the others to say goodbye to Elena. Caroline and Bonnie were forced to carry on without their best friend, Elena, during Season Seven.
At the end of Season Eight, Elena awakens from her sleeping curse. After Elena awakens, she is reunited with Bonnie and Caroline. Shortly after their reunion, the three are separated again being Bonnie decides to travel the world on her own.
