Understanding "Among" as a Preposition

"Among" is a preposition that means "in the middle of" or "between". It is used to indicate that something is situated between two or more other things.

For example:

* The book is among the best ones I've read this year. (meaning the book is located between the best books I've read this year)
* The restaurant is among the top-rated ones in the city. (meaning the restaurant is located between the top-rated restaurants in the city)

In your sentence, "among" is used to indicate that the three friends are situated between each other.
