The debt collectors
pairing: McCoy and Uhura
AN: I own nothing but please enjoy

They first met on the Shuttle to the academy… he was scared but looking at someone so brave made him not so scared. Dr. Leonard McCoy hated shuttles he feared dying in things that fly otherly known as aviophobia. She was beautiful and when they first spoke to each other there was a spark.

In my dreams their coming to collect
I got something that they want
and I don't know what it is
but you hid it in my luggage
so I'm running like a criminal
I'm sneaking round each corner
in a phone booth through a window
and the air is so cold around me
and I'm running for my life

The next time he saw her she was moving into her assigned quarters she had a wild roommate like he did he guessed it was a stroke of luck that the two got together because of Jim Kirk and Gaila. They two were pulled to a party by their roommates who wanted them each to mingle and Dance then that's when they spotted each other…

Borrow beg and steal
everything is real
one day you might feel
alright again

So I kissed you on the lips
you were sleeping
like a racehorse in the evening
all that power motivation
and the endless broken omens
and I don't know if I love you
but I really want to own you
and I've kept you like a secret
from the moment that I found you

He finally got up the courage to ask her out to a movie! The two cuddled together watching a Spy movie. He supposed it was 007 or something. Then afterward the two laughed and shared stories with each other. In the light of the moon it was finally the perfect moment he leaned closer to her and brushed a few stray bangs out of her face, cupping her warm cheek in his calloused hands they touched their lips together for a slow and sensual kiss.

We can make a deal
everything is real
one day I might feel
alright again

And I can write my way
out of this pain
that's a promise that you made me
in a letter that you sent me
from Chicago on a freezing day in winter
bow I feel a little lighter
but it really doesn't matter
cause this love is not obedient
it's got it's own agenda
and it wants to take me over
and it wants to pull you under
and it would like nothing better
than to tear us both to pieces
and it won't do what it's told

The now always held each other at night they talked and laughed at the things Bones would have to deal with in the Sickbay but most importantly they would always tell each other how much they loved each other. Each night would usually end in a heated kissing session or them falling asleep in each others arms.

Show me how you feel
everything is real
one day it'll be
alright again
one day it'll be
alright again

Maybe the love she gave him always could wipe away his terrible memory of Jocelyn and bring back happy memories with his daughter Joanna love was a crazy thing Dr. Leonard McCoy didn't always understand it but he knew what it was and that was something they two shared.
