The Way I Am (V/X)
Title: I’ll Make it Better Rating: PG Length: 153 Character: Wyldon Summary: A man with a wife and four daughters understands the nature of a woman’s monthlies.
“Drink this,” he says, setting a mug of willow bark tea on her desk.
“How did you…?”
“You’re quicker to frown when your head aches,” he answers simply.
She tries to smile up at him, but it hurts. “Why are you so wonderful to me?”
He kisses her forehead. “I was married for over thirty years, and have four daughters. I know what monthlies will do to a woman.”
“But I haven’t started yet.”
“You will within the next twenty-four hours. You always get a headache before you begin.”
“It’s a little frightening, that you seem to know me better than I do. When this headache is over, I’m taking you to bed with me.” She pauses, annoyance flashing across her face. “If it’s not too late, I mean.”
“Yes, I know. You tend to get more amorous before your monthlies, too.”
She scowls at his sagely expression. “Maybe I won’t, after all.”

This is funny! It is a little frightening how well he knows her...but I'll say it's sweet

I'd go with sweet! (this one might be slightly autobiographical, though, so I'm biased...) Thanks!

Aha, the final line made me giggle! He's so careful and considerate, but he forgets the most important thing is not to get on the wrong side of her

Yeah, he kind of made it a lose/lose scenario.
