A/N: This is a drabble-fic (okay, I know they aren't technically drabbles, but "oneshot-fic" just doesn't flow) based off of things I've experienced or heard about. Like the title says, each chapter is a different scenario that demonstrates what NOT to say to females. Enjoy!
Chapter 1: Are You Pregnant?
"Hey honey!" Fire Lord Zuko said, upon entering his bedchambers. "How was your day?"
Katara sighed as she brushed out her hair in front of the mirror. "It was frustrating. I just can't stand the nobles' wives! All they want to do is just sit and gossip over tea. I mean, seriously! A war ended less than a decade ago, the Fire Nation is in shambles, and all they want to do is talk about the latest scandal!"
Zuko approached his wife and started to massage her shoulders, trying to help relieve her tension. "'Tara, I know how hard it is for you to play the role of Fire Lady. But you do amazing at it, and I really appreciate it."
Katara smiled. "What I do for you, Zuzu." Her smile grew when she saw Zuko's reflection roll his eyes at the nickname.
"Let's just go to bed, my Fire Lady."
Katara stood up, and Zuko, ever the gentleman, picked her up bridal style and carried her to their bed. He set her down on the mattress, and asked "Hey honey, are you pregnant?"
Katara's smile disappeared, her ocean-blue eyes cold and angry. "And what gave you that idea?" She spoke harshly and enunciated each word.
Oblivious like always, Zuko did not sense her concealed anger. "Well, you seemed a little heavier than usual. So I was just wondering."
Fifteen minutes later, Fire Lord Zuko entered a guest bedroom, where he would be sleeping that night, with a confused expression, and a small bright red handprint on his stinging cheek.
A/N: I (and my friends) have only experienced so much wrong statements, and I would love/need to hear some ideas, suggestions, and stories! And review, please! I changed my profile to accept guest/visitor reviews, so for those of you who don't have an account, or are simply too lazy to log on (been there, done that) I would love reviews from you as well!
