Bonnie, no one-- not Caroline, not Elena, no one-- knows how to fight longer or harder or better than you. If you give up, I won't have anything left to hold on to. Please don't give up.

The relationship between the cured vampire/human doppelgänger, Stefan Salvatore and the witch, Bonnie Bennett.

Their relationship is mostly a friendly one, even though it went through some tension after Sheila Bennett's death and especially after Stefan murdered Enzo St. John in front of Bonnie. Although they do not interact much throughout the series, they can still count on each other as allies. Whenever things go south for them or their friends, they always seem to be on the same side.

The friendship between them is referred to as "Stefonnie" by fans.

In Requiem for a Dream, Stefan helps Damon, Caroline and Enzo to try and get through to Bonnie. Stefan shares a tense reunion with Caroline as he tries to assist Caroline in talking sense while Caroline is inside Bonnie's head. This proves to be unsuccessful being Bonnie's Supernatural Huntress was strong enough to invade her sane mind.

In Gods and Monsters, Stefan, Caroline and Alaric team up using Alaric and Caroline's daughters in opening the doors to the Armory. Stefan does this in order for Damon to burn the last body linked to Bonnie's ties with being a Supernatural Huntress. This proves to be successful in the end, which reunites them with their lovers, Caroline and Enzo.

In Hello, Brother, Stefan and Bonnie continue to search for Damon and Enzo. Months have passed and Bonnie has lost hope as she remembers her happy times with Enzo, the love of her life. Stefan convinces Bonnie to come along to help him find Damon and Enzo one day when they get another tip on their whereabouts. However, when Stefan and Bonnie find them, Damon violently puts Bonnie in a chokehold and threatens them to leave and not come after them again. This sparks hope inside both Stefan and Bonnie, especially when Bonnie believes that Enzo is trying to help defeat the Armory's monster.

In Today Will Be Different, Stefan and Bonnie continue to work together to try and save Damon and Enzo from Sybil. However, specific circumstances force the both of them to separate and work on saving them on their own. Bonnie gets a tip and eventually finds Enzo, but she fails to bring him back due to Sybil's mind control over Enzo. Stefan also finds Damon, but Damon kills Sarah Nelson, ordered by Sybil. This leaves Stefan devastated that he lost both Sarah and Damon to the monster. Both Bonnie and Stefan are extremely disappointed that they couldn't save Enzo nor Damon.

In You Decided That I Was Worth Saving, when Sybil orders Enzo and Damon to fight to the death until Bonnie makes the decision to save either one of them, both Bonnie and Stefan are forced to defend either Enzo or Damon. Stefan decides to side with Damon and Bonnie eventually chooses to save Enzo over Damon when Sybil forces her to do so. However, after Stefan and Bonnie and the rest of their friends are able to subdue Sybil and Enzo, Stefan and Bonnie are next seen together inside the Armory staring at Sybil in a prison room.

While staring at Sybil lying on the prison room's bed, Stefan and Bonnie begin to converse casually about the day's events. Bonnie asks Stefan if he had to, would he save Damon and leave Enzo for dead. Not bother to lie to her, Stefan says that he would have chosen to save Damon without hesitation. Then Bonnie gives Stefan a look and explains that Enzo has been the one fighting Sybil's control. She also tells him that Enzo's fighting would have been for nothing if Stefan let him die and saved Damon. Bonnie continued to argue that Damon wasn't the one fight and explained that Enzo was at least fighting for his life. Stefan sighs as Bonnie angrily leaves him with that thought.

In The Next Time I Hurt Somebody, It Could Be You,

In The Simple Intimacy of the Near Touch,

In You Made a Choice to Be Good, Stefan had already figured out that Bonnie removed Elena and her coffin-bed from her hideout in Brooklyn, New York City, New York. So after switching the ownership to another human and having the new owner invite him inside the house, Stefan drives to Bonnie and Enzo's new house and attempts to kill Elena by forcing his way through. At first, Stefan extracts Enzo's heart from the front doorway, shocking Bonnie. As Stefan approaches a shocked Bonnie inside the house, Bonnie scrambles to find a weapon of last-minute choosing. Stefan scoffs at her as she attempts to use a wooden coach hanger as a weapon. He grabs her arm forcefully and slowly twists it as he mocks her for trying to protect Elena, but Bonnie mentions through her teeth that she is going to turn him into a human. Bonnie then injects Stefan with a dosage of the cure and this makes Stefan fall unconscious. While doing this, Bonnie is in tears at the death of Enzo, from Stefan's hands.

In What Are You?, Bonnie is still devastated and angry that Stefan killed Enzo. She coldly and almost spitefully states to Damon Stefan is human now, meaning he will die eventually, showing actual sadistic pleasure over the revenge she got. Stefan meanwhile is greatly remorseful over the deed.

In It's Been a Hell of a Ride, Stefan attempts to apologize to Bonnie, but despite their alliance in saving Damon, Bonnie still hates Stefan for killing her boyfriend and gives him the cold shoulder, making it clear she will never forgive him. Stefan resignedly and sadly accepts her hatred, only wishing to try to apologize and admitting his guilt will haunt him for the rest of his life, and tells her he is leaving town, which she sarcastically says to be good for her before slamming the door on him. She shows no remorse for this when confronted by Enzo over it and outright states she hates Stefan but Enzo lectures her for holding on to her hatred, stating he himself bears no ill-will and that Bonnie should forgive him. Later, after Stefan kills Arcadius and saves Bonnie and Damon, Bonnie tells Stefan that she still doesn't forgive him, but he promises that he's not going to stop trying to earn her forgiveness.

Stefan: "We both want the same thing."
Bonnie: "We both want to protect the people we care about. The difference is for you, Damon is one of them. You saw what I was able to do tonight. I know who I am now. If Damon spills, so much as one drop of innocent blood, I'll take him down...even if I have to take you with him."

Bonnie: "Neither is letting Jenna die."
-- The Sun Also Rises

Bonnie: "I'm not sure this is going to work."

Stefan: "Hello Bonnie."
Bonnie: "Stefan! You followed me here?"
Stefan: "Yeah. It wasn't too hard. You should probably be more careful."
Bonnie: "What do you want with me?"
Stefan: "Relax! I just need your help."
Bonnie: "Why would I help you? Elena said you saved Klaus' life.
Stefan: "Let me fill you in on a little secret about Klaus. He kept his family with him at all times, daggered, stored in coffins, and now I have them and I need you to help keep them hidden."
Bonnie: "Are you out of your mind? You're just gonna make him angrier."
