"Happy birthday to my ride or die, my friend til the end, my champion, I love you Ian! @iansomerhalder," read the caption of the photo showing the two besties in luchador masks.

Her character Bonnie was left behind by Somerhalder's character Damon Salvatore in the hit CW TV show "The Vampire Diaries." As Damon and Elena (Nina Dobrev) scrambled to bring their friend back from the dreadful other side, Kai, played by Christopher Wood got in the way once again.

In previous episodes, Bonnie and Damon got very close after having a lot of time to bond.

Damon is trying all he can to get Bonnie back because of his newly cemented bond with her, rather than being selfish and trying to get Elena's memories of him back.

This Thursday "Christmas Through Your Eyes" marks the mid-season finale of "The Vampire Diaries" where the team will try to fight off Kai and bring Bonnie back from the other side.
