ok but atsuhina au where karasuno didn't play inarizaki in high school and the first time atsumu meets hinata, is when he's on vacation during the off season in rio with osamu + to watch the olympics and one day, they order pizza and hinata happens to be the delivery boy+
the twins struggle with english first and hinata's entire face lights up when he hears his mother tongue and he tells them "i'm japanese too!! are you paying cash or card?" and the miyas are a little Floored bc what are the chances. osamu gratefully accepts to talk in japanese+
while atsumu is just 

kind of staring bc the delivery boy is kinda hot but at the same time this is too much of a weird porno cliche so he doesn't do anything.
hinata being hinata ofc starts a conversation, asking them where they're from in japan, why they're in rio etc

and hinata easily has a nice chat with them and ofc "olympics" and "volleyball" come up. hinata brightens up immediately, "i know one of the players on the jpn team! we played in high school together! he was my setter!" and now atsumu is a little more interested
bc it can't be right? that would be too much of a coincidence.
"kageyama tobio!" hinata then confirms and how could it be that it's the one guy who always manages to one up atsumu. this is some sick twist of things.
"you play too?" atsumu then asks, thinking that hinata's short

hinata just grins. "i play beach professionally now." and he sounds pretty proud of it. neither miyas have ever tried beach volleyball.
eventually hinata has to leave, he's still at work. but before he leaves, he mentions what beach he always plays/practices at and if the twins

ever feel like playing, hinata would be happy to go for a game and maybe hang out.
atsumu and osamu are both a little floored by what happened and, of course, the day after they decide to actually go.

the beach is pretty busy and they soon find the area with the beach volleyball fields and there's right now a match going on, and it's that short pizza delivery boy, standing next to a massive mountain of a man, apparently his partner
the two then watch, mouth unhinged, as hinata receives a pretty brutal spike, immediately gets up, sprints over to the other side of the sandy court and suddenly starts Flying. his hand connects with the ball again and he sends it over and atsumu's heart starts pounding
he wants to toss to that guy. this guy who can run steadily on sand, who can receive all these attacks and serves, who //flies//, who demands on attention, has everyone look at him. he wants to let this guy hit his tosses. (osamu looks at atsumu with a knowing look)
after the match, hinata spots them pretty fast and he is genuinely so happy that these two random people came out to meet him. they spend the day with him, playing beach volleyball (hinata annihilates them, pretty much) and atsumu's heart is still pounding
because when they played, atsumu's tosses weren't his usual perfection and it unnerved him to no end, but hinata then says "you're trying to give me the best toss possible, that's all i need." and atsumu is actually moved. like this is the kind of spiker he has been looking for
the twins won't be in rio for much longer, only 5 more days, but they spend them almost all with hinata. either hinata shows them around, takes them to good restaurants and bars, or (best of all) plays volleyball with them. osamu Knows by now how gone his brother is
time flies fast and before they have to part ways, atsumu catches hinata by the wrist and says "one day i'll toss to you!" and he can feel how his entire face lights up in embarrassment, can already hear osamu teasing him about it all the way back to japan but
hinata just smiles at him and nods.
and that's that. the twins' vacation is over and they go back to their regular lives. osamu's business is booming, atsumu's now the main setter of the black jackals. more than a year passes. miya still thinks of the tan skin, smiles, and sand

his world is shaken once again, another unexpected twist, when he walks in to check out their team's tryouts and his eyes meet orange hair and tan skin
things that definitely happened in rio that i couldn't fit into the thread:
- an almost kiss but atsumu chickened out
- they held hands at the beach
- osamu and hinata drinking buddies were born
