There were 13 dwarves. Bilbo was added to the party to make it 14 and avoid having an unlucky number.
Bilbo is hired by 13 dwarves as a thief or burglar, as well as to make the party 14 rather than 13.
Bilbo met the Dwarves in Chapter 1. He met Trolls in Chapter 2. He met the elves of Elrond's house in Chapter 3. These would have been mostly Noldorin elves, but Sindarin elves and Sylvan elves would have been present also.
Rivendell was not central to the story of Bilbo and the Dwarves and the quest for Erebor. Elrond played a minor role in that he deciphered the moon letters but was not part of the quest. Rivendell was a place of refuge and contemplation, not a camp for war. Elrond spent most of the third age being a councilor not a hero.
The dwarves are Bilbo's friends for most of the Hobbit.

Bilbo was completely enchanted by the dwarves' music the first time they played (and sang) for him.

Yes, the wizard(Gandalf) likes Bilbo very much. It is by the will of Gandalf that Bilbo comes along with the dwarves for the quest. His concern for Bilbo can be seen when all the dwarves come out from goblin's cave but Bilbo remains behind. Gandalf continues to visit Bilbo even after the end of dwarves quest.
In the book "The Hobbit" by Tolkien, Bilbo doesn't find the dwarfs, the dwarfs find him! (With the help of the wizard) It is a wonderful book and I strongly recommend reading it!

He had borrowed several handkerchiefs from Elrond. He had complained of having left home without any of them. Bilbo left him 'such small gifts as he would accept' when they stopped on the return trip.

If Gandalf and the dwarves did not show up to rescue him, Bilbo Baggins had a plan to make his way through the tunnels to locate them. However, he is saved from that undertaking when he hears the dwarves and Gandalf talking.
