I have no idea how, but I keep losing this fic. I have check my rec list and my saved fics, but I just can't find it.

It's a McCoy/Spock fic. Before the fic starts, there was a battle with a Romulan ship. Romulans boarded, and at some point ended up in sickbay. McCoy saved one of their lives, and that man then killed some Security personnel -- and it turned out he was actually the captain of his own ship. McCoy is, of course, feeling terrible about this, and it doesn't help that Pike sent him a letter that pretty much said McCoy was a terrible person.

Enter Spock, who has no idea what is going on, other than McCoy is spiraling downward. He locks McCoy in his (Spock's) quarters and makes him write a resume so that he can see what he'd been doing -- or he writes one for him, I don't remember. I do know that he gets a whole bunch of McCoy's favorite books for him.

At some point between the attack and Spock locking him away and their romance beginning, McCoy learns some Romulan. When the other ship shows up again, McCoy starts yelling at the captain, who he recognizes. He says that the man owes him a debt, and that he wants the Enterprise and it's crew to make it to the Neutral Zone or what have you. The man agrees, and Pike sends that tape into the universe, which prompts Romulan/Federation peace. (Also, it turns out that Pike never meant to send the letter after McCoy shows Spock and a confrontation goes down.)

Help please? Thank you!
