Get the Business seat. Then at the gate, ask the Gate agent if they would help you arrange a seat swap with the person sitting next to your friend. It will be the rare person who will not swap your Business seat for Premium Economy.. Just make sure if the seat you want to swap is a window for window or aisle for aisle.
