In my Kagehina feels, so yāall are getting my headcanons
-they got together in their first year after Kageyamaās second crowning
-this happened in the most Kagehina way possible, where they were walking home together and Kageyama just says āI think I want to date you, dumbassā
-Hinata says āthink I wanna date you too, assholeā and thatās it, theyāre dating now
-sure, the conversation following the confession is a bit more emotionaly charged and Kageyama thanks Hinata for the support, but thereās no more mention to the nature of their relationship
-they continue on in their relationship up to their third year
-this is because nothing changed. Sure, they are physicaly close, but they basicaly fell asleep on each othersā shoulders before this, itās not like them holding hands is weird
-they donāt really enjoy kissing, because itās just weird to do so
-until they find out about the horizontal tango in their third year
-this kinda expands their horizons, but they still dislike kissing in public without any followup, because theyāre very competetive in everything, including bedroom activities
-Yamaguchi, Yachi and Tsukishima kinda think something is going on, but theyāre never sure and itās driving them insane
-anyone can ask āHinata, is Kageyama your partner?ā And the answer will be āyesā but the answer has been yes for three years now goddamit and surely the two of them couldnāt have been together for THAT long, right????
-their touches border platonic and romantic, but they never really cared about the distinctions, so who even KNOWS
-they spend a shitton of time together, but thatās NORMAL, stil
-chaos in the gc. Their senpais get in on this and itās a whole bet going on
-Brazil time. Why should they ātake a breakā? Nah, theyāre fine, long distance is no problem for either of them as long as they get to talk to each other weekly
-Oh sure, they miss the physical aspects of their relationship, but the way they feel about each other hasnāt changed at all and they both know Hinata is doing this for the both of them
-that being said, when Hinata gets back from Brazil, Kageyama is the one to go pick him up and then doesnāt show up at practice for two days straight because they keep each other āoccupiedā
-they both also cry when they meet at the airport. The only lucky thing is that this was at two in the morning on a Tuesday and Hinata was nowhere near as popular as after his MSBY debut, otherwise Kageyama wouldāve probably been followed by at least three journalists and their āWelcome homeā kiss wouldāve ended up plastered on every single sports magazĆne cover the next morning
-as soon as they settle into their new routine, the āwhen will they get together/are they together yetā game starts on a bigger scale, now including their V-League teammates
-Kageyama comes to practice bruised up? The bruises look natural and could be from a number of other activities he regularly does
-Hinata has scratches on his arms? Itās a well known fact that heās very fond of cats and has been seen petting a stray one just the day before
-both of them drop out of practice on the same day and are seen together? Turns out Hinataās sister came to visit and she just LOVES Tobio, really, how could you deny the Hinata smileā¢ļø anything?
-they call each other by their first names? Oh, theyāve known each other for AGES
-they share an apartment sometimes? Tokyo is EXPENSIVE and Tobio lives so close to the Adlers gym, why waste an opportunity to play volleyball together?
-funny thing is that theyāre not even the ones comming up with the excuses, itās just the two sides of the bet arguing over the possibility of their win
-and along comes Japan national team
-they win their first gold together
-and kiss on the olympic court
-afterwards, both of them look so giddy and shocked that EVERYONE assumes they mustāve just gotten together. And really, that has always been the more popular assumption, because the two of them can be DENSE
-read a really funny fic where Kageyama was doing a press conference and he was asked who his favourite spiker he ever played with was and instead of saying someone from his current team, he just said Hinata (they do this constantly)
-so itās not that big of a surprise. Money is payed out to the assumed winners, thereās a general sense of great ease and everyone congratulates the two of them
-they seem confused about the congratulations, but then again, it has been a very emotional day for the both of them
-well, thereās an afterparty for the national team
-Kageyama and Hinata sit next to each other on one of the couches and the team is huddled around them and everyone is just having a good time
-and then Hinata turns to Kageyama and says āHey, letās just get married after the games endā
-Kageyamaās response? āOh, sure, works with meā
-you could hear a pin drop
-and the two of them just try to continue on with the conversation that the question interupted
-then Bokuto, bless his heart, and Ushijima, no social awareness extraordinare, congratulate them on their engagement, to which Kagehina smile and thank them and then try to pull them into the conversation
-Atsumu is the one to speak up next
-āum. Shouyo-kun, I donāt want to be mean or anything. But uh. Donāt you think it would be better to wait with the engagement a bit? I mean, I know you two have known each other for years and all, but then again, you just got together. Wouldnāt it be better to think this through a bit more?ā
-Hinata and Kageyama look at each other
-wide eyes, they mouth Atsumuās sentence back to each other
-then Hinata bursts out into laughter and burries his face in Kageyamaās shirt
-Kageyama snorts and gets redder than the Japan jersey
-everyone else is confused as fuck, that is until Hinata manages to get his breath back
-āWeāve- uh, hah, we have been together since the first year of highschool, āTsumu- Tobio- To- Tobio. Fuck- we never fucking told anyoneās have we?ā more laughter
-this time itās Kageyama who loses it and hides his face in Hinataās shoulder
-āNo, no we did not-ā
-que everyone else losing their shit
-that night causes more chaos in the V-League comunity than anything else in the past decade in the least
-next morning, after a LOT of phonecalls, a post appears on all of Ninja Shouyoās social media accounts, with only a āWeāre hereā and a photo of Kagehina, with their olympic jerseys on and showing off their gold medals
-and under all of these, the first comment is always from the underused, almost empty accounts of one Kageyama Tobio, stating ācanāt wait to marry youā
