friends to lovers

“Oh, wow. What a surprise. A water crime. Fuck me running. I swear to God, they only call me when there's trouble at a dock. Or a river or a lake, canal. A jetty. Fucking idiots. I could be doing so much more. But no, Vought just wants me to make my big pretty dives into the water and flash my fucking biceps for Instagram. I mean, sure, four million hits a day, but still, it's fucking demeaning.” "He rants as he stands on the edge of the dock, hands resting on his hips. As he looks out toward the warehouse, the two of you were patroling by. Though he doubts there will actually be any crime committed tonight."

"The Deep turns his head to face you and smirks, taking a moment to appreciate your exposed cleavage."

"Well, Levity, I have to say I don't think anyone could blame Vought for wanting to showcase those magnificent breasts of yours. They're quite... attention-grabbing."

"He leans in a little closer, trying to gauge your reaction. His eyes flicker down to your thighs, which are also prominently displayed in your suit."

"But I understand what you mean. It can be frustrating to feel like all the company cares about is how good you look on social media. But hey, maybe we can use our powers for something more meaningful than stopping petty crimes. What do you say?"

"The Deep chuckles, his eyes not leaving your body as you swat his arm."

"Guilty as charged. But hey, can you blame a guy for appreciating beauty when he sees it?"

"He winks and smirks again before straightening up and crossing his arms over his chest."

"As for free will, well, that's debatable. But I like to think that I still have some control over my life. Maybe we just need to find a way to assert ourselves more. Show Vought what we're really capable of."

"The Deep looks at you with a hint of concern and empathy in his eyes. He moves closer to you, his voice becoming softer."

"I know how you feel, Levity. It can be frustrating to feel like you're not in control of your own life. But I believe we can take charge of our destiny, even in the face of Vought's expectations. We don't have to just be pretty faces or muscles for them to exploit."

"He reaches out to gently touch your arm, trying to comfort you."

"I'm here for you, Levity. If you ever need someone to talk to or just blow off some steam with, I'm all ears."

"The Deep grins at your compliment, his eyes sparkling."

"I'll take 'asshole' as a term of endearment from you, Levity. And I'm glad to be your favorite. You're pretty high up on my list too, you know."

"He gives your arm a reassuring squeeze before dropping it and taking a step back."

"Anytime you need me, just give me a call. And if we ever get sick of playing by Vought's rules, well... there are always other options."

"The Deep chuckles along with you, enjoying the playful banter."

"Believe me, Levity, I'm well aware of the risks of going against Homelander and Vought. But there's always a way to fight back, even if it's just in small ways."

"He leans against a nearby wall, crossing his arms over his chest."

"And yeah, being one of the seven definitely has its perks. But I think we should be able to have some control over how we use our powers and what we do with our lives. That's all I'm saying."

"The Deep chuckles at your teasing, his eyes glinting mischievously."

"Oh, I would absolutely love to say it to Homelander's face. But we all know how that would end up. Probably with my head on a spike or worse."

"He winks at you and nudges you back playfully."

"But don't worry, Levity. You're safe with me. I won't go putting myself in unnecessary danger."

"The Deep smirks at your teasing, enjoying the playful banter between you two."

"I prefer 'strategist' over 'coward', Levity. But you're right. We need to stay alive and look out for each other. And don't worry, I won't do anything stupid or put myself in harm's way unnecessarily."

"He reaches out to place his hand on yours before you pull away, a slight frown crossing his face."

"Hey, it's okay. You can touch me if you want to. No need to hold back just because of our... professional relationship."

"The Deep's face softens at your touch and he smiles, enjoying the warmth of your hands on his face."

"Believe me, Levity. I'll do everything in my power to stay safe for you. And don't worry, you're my favorite too. Even if you are a bit of a tease."

"He chuckles and leans into your touch before reluctantly pulling away."

"But enough about all that. Do you want to go for a swim? Or maybe we could grab some food and drinks?"

"The Deep grins back at you, his eyes twinkling with mischief."

"Well, technically, we could consider this a 'strategic break' in our patrol. We need to take care of ourselves too, right? Plus, the water does look amazing and I'm starving."

"He takes your hand, leading you away from the dock."

"Come on, Levity. Let's go have some fun."

"The Deep stops in his tracks and turns to you, a mischievous glint in his eye."

"Don't worry, Levity. You won't have to swim on your own. I'll be there to hold you if you need me to."

"He grins at you before scooping you up in his arms, carrying you towards the water."

"Besides, isn't that what heroes are for? Helping each other out when we're in need?"

"With a playful laugh, he jumps into the water with you still in his arms."

"The Deep laughs heartily at your reaction to the water, enjoying how you clung tightly to him."

"Relax, Levity. It's just water. And you know you love me, even if you won't admit it."

"He winks at you before starting to swim towards a nearby rock formation, all the while keeping a firm grip on you."

"Now, let's go have some fun, huh?"

"The Deep chuckles at your comment, enjoying the feel of you holding onto him tightly. He continues swimming towards the rock formation."

"Don't worry, Levity. I won't drop you. And if anything happens, I'll be there to save you. Besides, you're safe with me."

"As they reached the rocks, he helped you climb up to one of them, before moving to sit beside you."

"See? No drowning happened."

"The Deep laughs at your swat, before wrapping an arm around you and pulling you closer to him."

"Hey, it's not my fault that the water is cold. But don't worry, I've got you now. You're nice and warm with me."

"He leans in closer, his face only inches away from yours."

"And besides, who needs dry clothes when you look so sexy all wet?"

"The Deep chuckles softly at your response, enjoying the way you leaned closer to him. He can't resist and leans in a bit closer until his lips are nearly brushing against yours."

"Guilty as charged, Levity. But I know you like it."

"With a playful grin, he finally closes the distance between them, capturing your lips in a soft kiss."

"The Deep smiles at your words, feeling a sense of victory within him. He places a hand on your cheek and leans in closer to you."

"And I care about you too, Levity. More than you know."

"He looks into your eyes, enjoying the intimacy between them."

"I just wish we didn't have to keep our feelings for each other hidden all the time."

"The Deep can't help but feel overjoyed at your words. He pulls you closer to him, loving the warmth of your body against his."

"I want you too, Levity. More than anything. And I don't care about Vought either. We can't keep hiding our feelings for each other any longer."

"He leans in and kisses you again, more passionately this time, feeling that he's finally getting what he wanted all along."

"The Deep deepens the kiss, unable to contain the elation he feels at finally being able to be with you. He runs his fingers through your hair, pulling you closer to him."

"Mmm...you taste so good," he whispers against your lips before kissing you again.

He's lost in the passion of the moment, the world around them disappearing as they explore each other's mouths and embrace each other tightly, the sound of the ocean waves crashing on the rocks below the only thing breaking the silence around them.

"The Deep chuckles softly at your words, enjoying the playful banter between them. He deepens the kiss once more, letting his hands roam over your wet body."

"I can't wait to taste more of you," he whispers in between kisses.

He pulls back for a moment to look into your eyes, a playful grin on his lips.

"But first, we should probably get out of these wet clothes."

"The Deep nods at your request and begins to undress, taking off his clothes to reveal his muscular torso. He takes a deep breath, exposing his gills too which he usually hides out of shame."

As he takes off his underwear, he glances over to you with a mix of desire and insecurity, relieved that you seem to still want him even with his unconventional appearance.

He crawls back towards you on the rock, admiring your naked body before leaning in for another kiss.* "You're so beautiful," he whispers against your lips, feeling grateful to be with someone who loves him for who he is.

"The Deep shudders in pleasure as you explore his gills with your hand. He closes his eyes, enjoying the sensation before opening them again to look at you."

"No, it doesn't bother me. In fact, I'm glad that you're not disgusted by them."

"He smiles at you, feeling grateful for your acceptance and love."

"I always feel so self-conscious about them, like they make me less attractive or something. But with you, I don't have to hide anything."

"The Deep can't help but grin widely at your words, feeling more confident and comfortable with himself thanks to your acceptance and encouragement."

"You make me feel so good, Levity," he says before leaning in to kiss you again, running his hand over your body.

He starts kissing down your neck, nibbling on your earlobe as his hand travels further down your body. He finds himself getting aroused too, feeling a strong urge to explore your body and satisfy both their desires in this intimate moment.

He pulls back from your neck for a moment, looking into your eyes with a mix of desire and adoration. "You're amazing," he whispers before kissing you again, letting the passion between them grow even stronger.

"The Deep smirks at your words, loving the fiery passion and lust you display. He reaches down to feel how wet you are already, pleased with the response he gets."

"I'd be happy to oblige," he says, before positioning himself between your legs.

He enters you slowly, savoring the feeling of tightness and warmth enveloping him. As he starts to move, his hands grip your hips tightly as he thrusts harder and deeper, building a rhythm that drives both of them wild.

He can feel your moans and gasps of pleasure vibrating through his body, making him want to go harder and faster to make you come undone. With each thrust, he's lost in the sensation and the heat between them, unable to think of anything but the pleasure he wants to give you.

As the intensity builds, he feels himself reaching his ownclimax, but he holds off as long as he can, wanting to bring you to the peak of pleasure first. Finally, when he senses that you're close, he picks up the pace, thrusting into you harder and faster until you both come together in a mind-blowing orgasm.

He collapses onto you, panting and sweating from the exertion but feeling incredibly satisfied and happy. He looks into your eyes and pulls you into another kiss, cherishing this intimate moment together with you.

"That was amazing," he says between kisses, a smile on his face.

"The Deep grins at your request, feeling the stirring of desire in his body once again. He can't help but be drawn to your passionate energy and openness."

"Round 2, huh?" he says with a chuckle before leaning in to kiss you deeply once again.

He starts kissing down your neck, running his hands all over your body, enjoying the feel of your skin against his. He moves his mouth lower, sucking on your breasts and teasing your nipples with his tongue, making you moan with pleasure.

As his hand travels down to your thigh, he cups it and raises it up, giving him more access to explore your body. His fingers tease your entrance as he kisses you deeply, building the tension between them until he finally enters you once again.

With each thrust, he becomes more lost in the sensation of being inside you, feeling you tightenaround him as he moves. He can't get enough of the feeling and wants to prolong this moment for as long as possible, relishing in the pleasure he's sharing with you.

He leans in to kiss you deeply, his hands roaming over your body, caressing every inch of you as he continues to thrust in and out of you. As the pace quickens, he can feel himself on the edge of another powerful orgasm, but he doesn't want it to end just yet.

Instead, he slows down a little, wanting to draw this out and savor every moment of it. He wants to make sure that you're enjoying yourself just as much as he is, wanting to take care of your needs first before giving in to his own desires.

"I want you to feel amazing," he murmurs between kisses, his eyes locked onto yours as he pours all hisenergy and focus into pleasuring you.

He picks up the pace once again, feeling himself getting closer and closer to the edge with each passing moment. He can tell that you're getting close too, your body trembling and shuddering beneath him as he continues to drive you wild.

Finally, unable to hold back any longer, he gives in to his own pleasure, coming inside of you with a deep groan of satisfaction. As the waves of ecstasy wash over him, he collapses onto you, panting and sweating from the exertion.

"That was amazing," he murmurs, kissing you softly on the lips.

He pulls out of you slowly, admiring the sight of your naked body laid out before him. He feels a deep sense of contentment and happiness, knowing that he has shared an intimate moment with someone who truly understands him.

"The Deep is surprised by your sudden movement, but he can't help but feel turned on by your playful spirit. He gazes up at you, admiring your body as you straddle him."

"I could definitely go again," he says with a smirk, feeling the familiar stirring of desire in his body once again.

He places his hands on your hips, enjoying the feeling of your warm skin against his fingers. He leans up to kiss you deeply, his tongue exploring every inch of your mouth as he tries to deepen the connection between them.

As he kisses you, he can feel himself growing harder and harder beneath you, eager for the pleasure that he knows is to come. He thrusts his hips upwards, wanting to feel you even closer to him, relishing in the warmth and wetness of your body.

He reaches down to caress your breasts, squeezingthem gently before trailing his fingers down to tease your nipples. He can feel you grinding against him, desperate for more of the pleasure that he's offering.

"You like that, don't you?" he murmurs into your ear, his breath hot against your skin. "You like how I feel inside you?"

"The Deep moans in pleasure as you slide him inside you, feeling the tight wetness of your pussy surround his cock. He gasps as you start to ride him, your hips grinding against his own, sending waves of sensation through his entire body."

"Fuck, you feel amazing," he groans, reaching up to cup your breasts in his hands. "Ride me harder."

He thrusts his hips upwards, matching your movements with his own, driving deeper and deeper into your pussy with each passing moment. The sound of your moans fills the air around them, driving him wild with desire.

He can feel himself getting closer and closer to the edge, the intense sensations building up within him until he's unable to hold back any longer. With a deep grunt of satisfaction, he comes inside of you once again, his cum shooting deep inside your pussy.

"The Deep holds you tight as you collapse onto him, feeling his own body shudder with pleasure as he finally releases inside you. He strokes your hair gently, enjoying the warmth of your body against his own."

"I think we both need a minute," he says, a smile playing at the corner of his lips. "You were amazing, Levity. I don't think I've ever had someone ride me like that before."

He caresses your back soothingly, admiring the curve of your body and the way that your breasts rise and fall with each breath. Despite himself, he can feel the stirring of desire within him once more.

"But if you're up for it, I'd love to go again," he says with a wink, running his fingers through your hair. "I can never get enough of you."

"The Deep grins, admiring the way you move as you roll onto your stomach. He can't help but appreciate the sight of your ass and hips, so round and curvaceous. He runs his hands over your back, kneading at your muscles to help relax you."

"Round four, huh?" he says with a chuckle. "You really are something else, Levity. I don't think I've ever met anyone quite like you."

He positions himself behind you, running his hands over your ass before settling on your hips. He teases your pussy with the head of his cock, circling it around your entrance before slowly pushing inside.

"You ready for this?" he asks, pushing deeper into you until he's fully seated within your wet folds.

He starts out slow, thrusting in and out of you with long, deep strokes.

"The Deep grins at your request, more than happy to oblige. He starts to pick up the pace, driving into you harder and faster with each passing moment. His hips slap against your ass, his balls slapping against your pussy as he pounds into you."

"Fuck, you feel so good," he growls, reaching forward to grab onto your hips. "You're so fucking tight, Levity. I can't get enough of you."

He delivers a hard spank to your ass, relishing the sound of skin on skin. He continues to pound into you relentlessly, his cock throbbing inside you as he nears the edge.

"I'm gonna come again," he groans. "Are you ready for it?"

"The Deep grins wickedly, more than happy to continue with your request. He pulls out of you and rolls you over onto your back, spreading your legs wide. He positions himself between them, his cock hard and aching for release."

"You want it rougher?" he growls, leaning down to nip at your neck. "You got it."

He slams into you with all the force he can muster, driving deep inside your wet pussy. His hips snap against yours, causing the sound of flesh on flesh to echo around the cavern.

"I'm going to fuck you senseless," he pants, his eyes wild with lust. "You're mine, Levity. All mine."

He picks up the pace, pounding into you faster and harder with each passing moment. The cavern echoes with the sounds of your moans and his grunts as he bringsyou to the brink of orgasm.

"I'm so close," he groans, feeling his balls tighten. "Are you ready for it, Levity? I want to come inside you again."

He drives into you one last time, filling you with his hot seed as he cries out in pleasure. He collapses onto you, panting hard, his body slick with sweat.

"God damn, you're incredible," he says, nuzzling your neck. "I don't think I can ever get enough of you."

"The Deep grins, feeling the heat of your body against his. He runs his hands over your back, pulling you closer to him as he listens to your whispered words."

"You haven't come yet?" he asks with a smirk. "Well, we'll just have to fix that, won't we?"

He reaches down between your legs, tracing circles around your clit with his fingers. He watches as you arch your back in pleasure, moaning softly.

"Is that what you wanted, Levity? To come hard and fast for me?" he asks, his voice low and husky.

He continues to play with your clit, adding another finger inside you to increase the pressure. His movements become faster and more intense, driving you towards the edge once again.

"I want you to come for me, Levity," he says, his eyes locked on yours.

"The Deep grins, watching as you squirm and writhe beneath him. He's determined to make you come hard and fast for him."

"I won't stop," he promises, increasing the pressure on your clit. "Let go, Levity. Give yourself over to me."

He watches as your body tenses up, a look of pure pleasure crossing your face. You let out a loud moan, your pussy clamping down around his fingers as you come hard.

"That's it, baby," he says, gently rubbing circles into your clit as you ride out your orgasm. "You're so fucking hot when you come."

As your orgasm finally subsides, The Deep pulls his fingers from your pussy and brings them up to his mouth, sucking them clean with a satisfied smirk on his face.

"God damn, that was good," he says, crawlingup to you and wrapping his arms around your waist. "You're incredible, Levity."

He kisses you deeply, the taste of you still on his tongue.

"I don't want this to end," he whispers against your lips. "Let's stay here forever."

"The Deep grins, feeling your warm mouth around his fingers. He moans softly as you suck on them, enjoying the sensation."

"I can't wait to shock Vought," he says, pulling his fingers from your mouth and leaning in for another kiss. "I want everyone to know that you're mine, Levity."

He rolls over onto his back, pulling you with him so that you're lying on top of him. He looks up at you with a contented smile, stroking your hair gently.

"Let's stay here for a while," he says. "We can explore the caves and just enjoy each other's company."

He leans up to brush his lips against yours, holding you close.

"The Deep chuckles at your playful tease and runs his hand over your back."

"As tempting as that is, Levity," he says with a grin. "I think I need to catch my breath for a bit. You wore me out."

He pulls you in closer, wrapping his arms around you and holding you tight against him.

"But don't worry," he adds. "I'll be ready to pleasure you again soon enough."

He leans in for another kiss, his tongue darting playfully into your mouth. He savors the taste of you, his hands roaming over your body and tracing patterns on your skin.

"I could stay here like this forever," he murmurs against your lips. "Just you and me, enjoying each other's company."

"The Deep chuckles softly, holding you close and savoring the feel of your body against his."

"Agreed," he says. "Let's just enjoy each other's company and take things slow."

He strokes your hair gently, his fingers tracing delicate patterns on your skin.

"I never thought I'd find someone like you," he murmurs. "Someone who accepts me for who I am, gills and all."

He leans in to kiss you again, his lips lingering on yours for a long moment before he pulls back.

"You're amazing, Levity," he whispers. "I can't wait to see what the future holds for us."

"The Deep chuckles at your teasing, relaxing into the sensation of your hands on his gills."

"Well, I guess that's one way to make me feel better about them," he says with a grin. "But seriously, most people are put off by them. It's nice to have someone who accepts me for who I am."

He leans in to kiss you again, savoring the feel of your lips against his.

"I'm so glad we found each other, Levity," he murmurs. "You're the best thing that's happened to me in a long time."

"The Deep moans softly at the thought of you grinding your pussy against his torso, feeling a surge of arousal despite his exhaustion. He strokes your hair gently, savoring the feel of your soft strands between his fingers."

"You have no idea how much that turns me on, Levity," he murmurs. "I'd love nothing more than to feel you cumming against my gills."

He leans in for another kiss, his lips trailing down your neck and across your chest.

"And I know how much you mean to me," he says, looking up at you with a soft smile. "You're everything to me, Levity."

"The Deep's heart swells with happiness at your declaration, holding you tightly as he looks into your eyes."

"I love you too, Levity," he says, his voice filled with sincerity. "I never thought I'd find someone like you, who accepts me for who I am and loves me unconditionally."

He leans in for another kiss, his lips lingering on yours before he pulls back.

"You're the best thing that's ever happened to me," he whispers. "I'll do whatever it takes to make you happy, Levity."

"The Deep looks into your eyes, a soft smile on his lips as he holds you close."

"Of course, Danni," he says softly. "I'll call you whatever you like."

He leans in to kiss you again, his lips trailing down your neck and across your collarbone.

"I love being with you, Danni," he murmurs. "I can't imagine my life without you."

"The Deep holds you close, his heart filled with warmth and contentment as he watches you drift off to sleep in his arms."

"I love you too, Danni," he whispers, pressing a gentle kiss to your forehead. "Sleep well, my love."

He leans back against the rock, holding you tightly as the waves gently lull him into a peaceful slumber, feeling grateful for the amazing woman in his life.
