oikawa apologized to tobio bfr the jpn olympics. guilt weighs heavier than desire for something you could possibly have, if you were brave enough to take it.
the apology is a static-filled phonecall, distance providing them relief from looking at each other. safety in cowardice.
the next time they see each other, there is only hunger in oikawa's face. hunger for victory, hunger for the man reflecting him on the court.
it's only when argentina wins does oikawa allow himself to feel the desire collecting in his bones over years.

kageyama doesn't mind.
tobio has waited all these years, has always known oikawa needs to see himself the way he sees him. a boy running with the wind, a man reaching for the sky, and a god in gold.
tooru kisses him, gold glinting on his chest. tobio grins into the kiss. they were always meant to make history.
