Yamaguchi Kumiko or would that be Sawada Kumiko?

Shinkumi 20 years later.... She's still a school teacher who's known to specialise in troubled kids, most schools want her to deal with their 'problems'. Since it's unofficially known by now that she's related to the Yakuza though no one's really sure whether those rumours of being an actual Yakuza wife are true, it's known that she does not back down even in the face of the richest parents with hopeless teenaged kids.

All those spoilt brats who go around getting into trouble and their parents backing their bad and destructive behaviour? Yankumi walks in like those parents are nothing. And those rich people know they can't lay a finger on her. What would her kumi do? What would her HUSBAND do? They are not really clear whether she has a gangster husband or how she's connected to Japan's most powerful Yakuza kumi but dang... if shit goes south for Yankumi or 'her students' then Odeo clan shows its hand in subtle yet terrible ways.

By now, Kumiko has dropped her overly girly act but retains her sunshine and optimistic self. Many of her troubled students have actually gone on to have gainful lives. Sure, a lot of them aren't successful like the way society deems success. Yet, they're all mature adults and human in ways more successful people struggle to achieve.

In times when she has to absolutely step up as the Yakuza Boss Lady, she switches seamlessly. She's still feared because a lot of her students have had runs with various kumis and they know those unruly brats are under protection.

Sawada Shin blends into Japan's underworld like he's been born to the life. He's modernised their business approaches, cleaned up many of their operations into legitimate ones. Of course, he's been to the obligatory prison route in place of one of his subordinates, which makes him a legend and an idol to follow for the youngsters. Kumiko is still upset but she does understand why he does some things.

Oh... And all the times he's had to go for PTA meetings? He's dressed up like the obligatory middle class worker drone, which only makes him fodder for comedy nights at home. Not one single teacher at his kids' schools believes his disguise. Not with that red hair and definitely not with those eyes that go from benign to deadly in a heartbeat. That's when Kumiko decides she'll be the one to go for those PTA meetings. The kids prefer Dad to come along because he'll cow every teacher who dares complain but Oya-san would actually listen to their teachers and read between the lines.

The Definition of Intimacy

Summary:

Snippets of the lovelife of Yamaguchi Kumiko and Sawada Shin.

Notes:

As 2022 approaches and so does the 20th anniversary of Gokusen TV series 🥳🥳 after rewatching and reading tons of fanfics accross different platforms I decided to make one too to celebrate the fact that this gem is now 2 decades old. In this story, I have not included gokusen 2 & 3 because I have not rewatched it and because this story is mainly ShinKumi, but some parts of the manga will (hopefully) be included in this (like the part that Sawada did not go to africa but instead stayed and became a lawyer).

CHAPTER 1: The intimacy of his gaze

Kumiko have no idea when or how she fell in love with Sawada Shin. Her student, well now former student. She knew how she came to like Shinohara-san because he was handsome and he helped her the first time they met and the star-crossed lovers idea of her being a yakuza princess and him being a detective had excited her so much that whenever she sees him made her feel giddy inside. But with Shin it was all too different.

On the first day they met, Shin was the only one who met her eyes with such intense stare that he caught her interest though not in a romantic way as she was her student. It was because he looked at her with disappointment, anger, and nonchalance which made her wonder what made him act like that. Same for Shin he knew that somehow this teacher was different. Whether good or not he eventually knew as time passes. He looked at her warily, expecting her to eventually get tired of them and become the predictable adult who does not give a shit about them, but then he saw how passionate she is. Funny how passionate means her punching Kuma because he stole money from the vice principal (well technically only because the vice principal deserve it), and her threatening a bunch of students because they ganged up on Shin and Minami.

Sometimes she even wore that stupid 'fashionable' clothes, and he couldn't help but give in and say that she looked fine because she obviously wanted to help, definitely not because she looked really cute being proud of what she was wearing. It was because of her effort and not how cute her stupid antics are.

This all went above Kumiko's head that time. How Shin always gives her what she wants, she just got used to it, being spoiled by Shin. It was a bit funny, how his friends got always surprised whenever he lets her get her way, but still nobody had an idea, specially Kumiko, that he does this because he likes her. If everyon would just look at her just like Shin looks at her, they would fall in love with her too, or maybe it was just him.

Kumiko thought that she had gotten used to Shin looking at her, Lord knows how much he stared at her back when he was still his student. Though his wary gaze turned into curious, then into amusement, and then into affection. Kumiko was sure she somehow had fallen in live with Shin because of the way he looks at her. Like he knows her, the real her. Not the Oujou that Tetsu and the others call her, not the Yankumi that her students affectionately call her, and not even the Yamaguchi-sensei that her co-workers and Shinohara-san call her, but her, the Yamaguchi Kumiko a teacher, a family member, a yakuza princess, and of course a woman. He was the one who could predict what she would do before she even knew what she was going to do. And he was the only one who would go to her home to check on her when it was revealed that she's a yakuza princess, know that she would be depressed and would be blaming herself, even if he left early, in order to stop his self from hugging her knowing it wouldn't help her current situation.

Sawada Shin had known all of that and more all because he looked at her. That was what made Kumiko fall in love with him.

"Oh, that was a nice punch! Did you see that Shin? Maybe we should try to learn that move- eh?? You're not even watching! You missed it!" Kumiko got annoyed seeing Shin was just staring at her instead of watching the yakuza movie that she put on. "You do know that this is the 3rd time we watched that this week, right?" Shin gently moved her hair out of her face.

"A-and so?! That doesn't mean you can just stare at me. You have to watch the movie!" Kumiko blushed avoiding Shin's piercing gaze, opting to look at the action shown at the TV. "I'll reverse the banishment." Shin recited same time as the movie. "W-what?" Kumiko frowned still refusing to return Shin's gaze. "I have almost memorized the whole movie after watching one time, I thought you were the one watching it but you don't even know the lines." Shin teased. Kumiko huffed and finally angrily stared back at him, ignoring the butterflies that she feels whenever she looks at those deep brown eyes, which was now looking at her amusedly with a raised brow.

"Watch the movie, not me."

"No. You're more amusing."

"I am here at your apartment to watch a movie not to make you amused." Trying to ignore the way he moved closer to her face was more difficult than she thought.

"Mmhhmm then why don't you just focus on your movie and ignore me?" His nose was now touching hers their lips a breath apart. "I am not ignoring you, don't you know how distracting it is when someone keeps staring at you?" Kumiko tried to prove her point by staring back at him with the same intensity until she was almost crossed eyed but instead of making a point she made him chuckle "What's with your face."

"Don't laugh at m-mpff" Shin cut her off with a kiss that she immediately returned. Her hands grabbing his arms as he held her waist to keep her from lying on the sofa. Knowing how this strong woman, who can defeat gangs even those pipe wielding ones, get weak and melt whenever he kisses her.

Kumiko let out a gasp as a loud shout came from the movie and Shin took the opportunity to deepen their kiss, his tongue playing with hers, as he pulled her into his lap. After a few minutes, he gently bit and tugged her lower lip and slowly pulled away from their kiss, and traced kisses from her cheeks to her neck as he makes her face the TV once more but this time sitting between his legs. "Let's watch the movie this way so that you wouldn't get distracted by me." Shin whispered in her ear. Kumiko doubted silently that she would be able to focus on the movie after what happened but she did try even if occasionally she could feel him looking at her and his warmth on her back. Somehow, knowing that Shin is watching both her and the movie made the evening much more better
