The war is over. But everyone's still struggling with PTSD. Some people more than others. Unfortunately, Harry James Potter and Draco Lucius Malfoy were some of those people. They're breaking, drastically, each in their own way.
All that stubbornly comes to a halt when Professor McGonagall sends the previous seventh years an invite to come back to Hogwarts for their eighth year, as none of them had taken their N.E.W.T.s, what with some of the teachers being Death Eaters and torturing remaining students. The others weren't at school at all.
And on top of all the stress, Harry and Draco start a custody fight over Teddy Lupin. Andromeda has fallen seriously ill, what with her old age, grieving her daughter and the post-war trauma and all. She is in no state to take care of a newly orphaned baby. And neither his godfather nor his cousin once removed want Teddy to go to an orphanage.
What will eighth year, post-war trauma, mental health issues, Teddy, and complicated feelings towards each other bring Harry and Draco?
A whole lot of angst, drama, fun and chaos, that's what.

When We Collide
Hogwarts, Eighth Year. The war is over, but the battle between Hermione Granger and Draco Malfoy is far from finished. Forced to work together on rebuilding the school, their mutual loathing turns into something far more dangerous: tension. Resentment. Unspoken things lingering between them. Draco, still dealing with the fallout of his past, should have been indifferent to Granger's life. And yet, he watches-watches as her relationship with Ron crumbles, watches as she tries to hold it all together, watches as she pretends not to notice when their hands brush over cauldrons in Potions. One night, an argument ignites something neither of them can take back. A kiss, sharp as a knife. A mistake, Hermione insists. But Draco? Draco knows better. As jealousy, pride, and desire entangle them in a game of push and pull, Hermione fights to keep her world in order. Draco is ready to burn his down for her. But with the weight of their pasts, house rivalry, and the entire school watching, will they collide-or will they crumble?

When circumstances lead to Harry discovering the letters, they embark on a journey of understanding, forgiveness, and perhaps even love, challenging the assumptions and prejudices that have divided them for years. Can the power of words in these unsent confessions bridge the gap between two former enemies, igniting a new chapter of friendship and possibility?Complete
