Disclaimer: I don't own gokusen.
Author's note: Tadaaaa… Chapter Eight is finally here. Thanks to all those who reviewed the last chapter. That is just the start of the obstacles which our couple will be going through. But please don't hate me. I will try my best to make this fic better as the story goes along.
To jasmine85: Don't worry. I will not let Shin's gorgeous face be messed up by somebody. Even Yankumi. Thanks for reviewing and spending your time reading this fic. (bows in gratitude)
To Revr: It doesn't end there. I think Yankumi will and Shin will get into more fights afterv that. And tears will be flooding in the incoming chapter. (Laughs and stares evilly) But I'll never let anyone come between them. (If I am in the mood, but if not, I think I will just do something you will not expect…) Thanks for the review anyways. Hope you'll review more.
CHAPTER 8: THE OMIAI

"Kumiko! Wait! Let me explain! You don't understand!" Shin followed her while shouting at the street. She kept on running. The people were looking at them but Shin didn't care. All he wants is his Yankumi back into him.
"I saw and heard everything! I don't need any explaining from you!" She shouted back to him when he caught her in the middle of an empty road. She sobbed hardly and was unable to hide her tears.
"No you didn't! You got the wrong idea you baka!" Shin's voice was now in a hoarse tone.
"Don't' you dare call me baka, you bastard brat! You hide it all these times from me? How long have you been unfaithful?" She asked him with her eyebrows meeting each other. He saw again that devilish stare that he hadn't seen for a while. That face that was full of love and concern for him before has now turned into cold and unexpressive ones. Her cheeks were full of tears that he wanted to wipe but all of those were because of him. He can't help but pull her in a very tight embrace that he can ever do. He closed his eyes and felt the warmth of her petite body that perfectly matched his.
"Can you please listen to me for a while?" He pleaded but she kept on resisting in his embrace. After a few seconds she felt that all her energy has been used up. She fell limply on Shin's shoulders. He guided her on a nearby bench and now, she didn't resist.

Her eyes widened when she heard everything. She turned completely red because of the things she'd done earlier. She was sure enough that Shin will start again pissing her off about her being madly in love for him.
"Is that true?" She wanted for reassurance.
"Yes. That's all true. He has never been unfaithful to you. You're too lucky to have him. Not like the father of this child I am now carrying. He doesn't even call me or ask me what I am up to now." A voice came from behind.
"Misaki!" Both Shin and Yankumi cried out.
"You shouldn't have got out from the unit. You might faint here." Yankumi was worried about her situation. "I'm sorry I acted too childish." She let a slight laugh escape her lips.
"I'm okay. I just don't want your relationship to be ruined because of me. I just got a bit tired of running after the two of you. You're too fast. I wonder where you get all your energy especially you Yamaguchi-sensei." She said.
"Uhhhh… I just have a lot of exercise today so my body is in condition." She covered up so Misaki would not have any idea of her family background. "And you can call me Yankumi from now. I am willing to help you if there's anything I can do." She smiled sincerely.
"Oh thank you Yankumi! You two are such a great couple." She was almost crying because of gratitude.
"Just a question Misaki. Who is the father of that child? Does he know something about your current condition?" Asked Yankumi.
"No he doesn't know anything about this. I am afraid that he might reject this child." She lowered her head.
"You better let him now because he is the one responsible. If he doesn't accept it, then he is not worthy of you. He will just be a big, obnoxious coward." Yankumi said.
Silence broke upon them.
"Well, I think we should go the apartment now and eat the foods that Yankumi disgustingly prepared to surprise me because she loves me so much and she is so afraid to lose her Shin." Shin, who attempted to break the silence, said with a girly tone.
"WHAT THE! Come back here Shin!" She tried to reach for him but they ended up chasing and hitting each other. Misaki just watched as the cute couple run after one another as they take their path to Shin's apartment.

At Yukishiro's residence (Misaki's house)…
"Dad, please forgive your daughter. I know she didn't mean that!" Her mother was weeping in front of Mr. Yukishiro (Misaki's father).
"I'll never will." Mr. Yukishiro has his cold and expressionless face again.
"I will do everything for her. Anything you wish. I will do it for you just let her go back here. She needs us more now." Her mom continued.
"Are you sure you gonna do everything and talk to Misaki after this incident?" An idea came from Mr. Yukishiro's mind.
"Yes, I will. I will try to convince her to do good always. Just don't let her be homeless. She's your child." Her mother was kinda relieved when she saw that her husband was willing to get Misaki back home.
"Very well then… Just convince Misaki to get along with my idea." Her father picked up the phone and dialed a number.

"Here Misaki. Take more sushi. I know you haven't eaten anything yet since yesterday. This stupid guy is not a gentleman after all. He didn't even care to offer you anything." Yankumi raised an eyebrow to Shin. The two of them where arguing since they went back to Shin's apartment because of their share of food.
"Hey! That piece is mine!" Yankumi protested while trying to reach the piece of grilled beef from Shin's chopsticks.
"I got it first." He reached his hand up high to prevent Yankumi from getting it.
"You told me that even a dog wouldn't eat the food I cook but now you are gobbling up all the food I brought." She frowned but deep inside, she was happy that Shin liked the food she prepared. She looked away from him to pretend that she was really angry.
"But this one's too good… I bet that you only let Tetsu prepare all of this." He said before putting the grilled beef into his mouth.
"HEY! I'm the one who prepared all of those! I am getting better at cooking." She boasted. She looked around Shin and said "Where is the grilled beef."
Shin pointed to his stomach and said "Down here."
"YOU!" She was acting like punching Shin when suddenly…
Kringgg…. Kringgg…
"Whose was that?" Yankumi asked when she and Shin checked their cellphones but the ringing belonged to neither of them.
"Oh… Excuse me… but I think it's mine. Sorry for interrupting you two. I'll just answer it for a while." Misaki said while attempting to get up from her sitting position.
Both Shin and Yankumi went off fighting with each other again. They made a noisy background at Misaki phone.
"Moshi moshi" Misaki answered the phone.
"Misaki! I'm glad you're safe. I already asked your father if you could come back and he agreed. I was so worried about you…" Her mom was worrying to death.
"Thanks mom for everything. I'll just go back there later. I will thank first the ones who took care for me." Misaki was overjoyed when she heard the news.
"But he has a few conditions… I hope you won't mind" Her mom told her.
"I will do anything for you to accept me again." She said.
"Okay. I will be waiting for you bye." Her mom said.
"Thanks again mom. I love you. Bye" A smile escaped her lips as she put down her cell phone. She went back to the table and found the couple still arguing. The two of them felt ashamed of how they acted in front of a visitor.
"Oh.. I'm sorry Misaki for our childishness. Hope you won't mind." Shin bowed his head for apology.
"After all that you've don't for me… Besides you own this place. I am the one who should say sorry for making a trouble." Misaki apologized.
"No need for apologies. Who's on the line anyway?" Yankumi asked while chewing on a piece of rice cake. Her mouth was full of stain.
"My mom. I'll be coming back to our house later, its just a few meters away from here. I would like to express my deepest gratitude to both of you. She told me that my father is willing to accept me again but my mom told me that he has a few conditions. But I am willing to do everything." She smiled at the good news.
"That's good. I'll be going with you later. Your condition is not too good anyways. Can you come too Shin?" Yankumi asked.
"I can't. We still have a band practice today. Just be sure that the two of you will be safe. Misaki, you can call us anytime." Shin said while wiping Yankumi's mouth. She blushed at the contact and tried to put away Shin's hand.
"I guess we should be preparing now…" Yankumi announced.
After a few hours…
"Hey Shin! We will be going already!" Yankumi shouted outside the bathroom. Shin was currently taking a bath.
"Okay. I'll be going out too after a few preparations. Bye bye!" His voice echoed through the small bathroom.
"Okay. Thank you so much Shin!" Misaki shouted too.
"It's nothing!" Shin answered.

"Wow. Your father really has a high social status." She said while eyeing on every feature of the well built house.
Misaki pressed the doorbell and a maid came out and gathered her things. The maid also eyed Yankumi for a while when Misaki said "She is a good friend of mine." The maid just nodded and smiled at Kumiko. She too gave back a smile to her.
"Misaki!" Her mother ran hurriedly to fetch her. She hugged her tight and her face really shows the true care of a mother. Yankumi felt something pricked on her heart. How I wish my mom is here too. I promise myself never to disappoint her if I am given the chance to be with her again. She eyed keeply on the two and watched them as tears fell down into their eyes. Their moment broke off when suddenly, Mr. Yukishiro went outside. Misaki was about to kiss his cheek. He waved his hands to prevent her from doing it. She slightly bowed her hed and said "Dad… I'm so…"
"No need to tell that. I am just here to tell you something. If you want to go back in this house, you will do me a favor. Just a simple single favor." Her father said with a cold voice.
"Whatever you say father." She approved with a series of nods.
"Com'on. We better stay inside before somebody hears it." His father leaded the way. Misaki's mother whispered something to Yankumi. She said thank you to her for taking care for Misaki. She just smiled and said "It's really nothing ma'am."
Misaki offered a chair to Yankumi which she gladly accepted. Her father stood up in a really straight manner. Yankumi remembered that he is just like Shin's dad.
"To begin with, I really don't forgive you for what you have done. Just be thankful to your mother. I just called you here to inform you that I won't let you mess up our clean family name. You will soon be married." Her father announced.
What the…! Misaki's eyes flew open. But I don't wanna marry, father. Her mind protested but it seems that her tongue dripped backwards. She can't do anything but sob quietly in her seat. She knows that she can do nothing.
Sorry daughter, but that's the only solution. I don't want you and my grandchild to be just roaming around and ask for food. I don't want your child to grow as a bastard. Her mom's eyes seem to talk to her in a silent manner.
"But you are not going to marry that stupid guy who made your stomach bulge. I sent some people to look for his family background and I assure you, he's nothing compared to our family. I have a friend of mine who has a high political status here in Japan. We planned to marry our first born child a couple of years back. But I think the time has come already so I called him earlier and told me that the marriage will occur in a couple of weeks."
"I need not to ask you because whether you like it or not, you will get married." Her father commanded with a terrible low and hoarse voice.
Poor Misaki. I will do anything to help. Yankumi eyed her carefully with her eyes full of worry.
"Meeting adjourned. Misaki go into your room now. And you miss, you may now go." He is talking to Yankumi and turned his back to her.
What kind of man is he! Is that the proper way to treat a visitor? Man, I can even command my men to attack and ambush you minutes later. She glared at him and thankfully Mr. Yukishiro was not looking. The maid attempted to guide her but she commanded. "I can go with my own. You better tell that man that I will not let my friend being treated like that." She whispered with determination. The maid didn't mind her.
Misaki sobbed in her now wet pillow and dialed a number on her cellphone. She dialed the number of a guy named Hajime (the father of her soon to be child).
"Moshi moshi." Her voice is trembling when she said her first words.
"Misaki! Oh god! I was worried about you! You haven't talked to me for months. I was not able to call because I thought you are angry at me. What's the matter?" He said with concern when he recognized the voice.
"I am pregnant. You are the father. " She said while a bucket of tears fell in her eyes.
"Like what I've suspected. Don't worry I'll come to your house and ask your hand from your father. I am determined to do this for you and for our child." Hajime said with determination in his voice.
Misaki was glad to here those words from him. But she continued, "My father will let me marry somebody whom I don't know. He said that your family is not good enough for me. So he got angry at me and I came up with an old friend. Shin Sawada and his girlfriend Kumiko Yamaguchi. They took care of me when I walked away." She cried and cried but she made her voice steady so that the guards in outside her room would not hear her.
"Oh god! I will do everything to prevent that marriage. I will take you from them if that's the only solution. I love you so much. I am going to ask help from them. I know that Sawada guy. I met him earlier while practicing with his band at our music shop." He said. He got hurt when he heard of those.
"I don't want you to get hurt…" Her eyes were now red.
"Doesn't matter. Who is the guy?" Pain can be recognized in his voice.
"I don't know yet. But I think he is a son of some politician or a businessman." She stated.
"When is the marriage?" He gulped down a little. It hurts to ask that question especially to someone you love.
"A couple of weeks later." She responded.
"Okay. I'll come up with a solution. I hope those two are willing to help." He assured her.
"Okay. Thank you very much and I love you. Be careful of every step you take. Dad is a really dangerous man." She finally stopped crying and her worries were all swept away.
"Okay. Bye" Hajime put down his phone and headed were Shin's band was practicing. He was hoping he can get any help.
