I Can't See Me Lovin' Nobody But You!

"Tanta Dwella, Why do you want these old tapes? You can't eat them!"

"Yeah! We need them back before Mama and Papa ask where they went!"

"No offence guys, but I don't think Tanta Jay and Onkel O are going to go into the attic any time soon."

Bagdwella laughed at her niece and nephews' antics. She riffled through the old tape reals they had snuck out of the house for her to look through.

"I'm not going to eat them," She promised, "Now. What would you three suggest?"

"That depends on the occasion," Mary insisted mater of factly, "Some movies are good for watching alone but not good if you're going to be watching with someone."

"It also depends on how much time you have," Jim agreed, "Lord of the Rings is really long and there's three of them so you need a lot of time to watch them all."

"What about for a little movie date with a special somebody?"

"Is it that somebody you still wont tell Mama and Tanta Barbara the name of?" Toby teased.

"That is none of your concern, Toby Bear."

"If that's the case, it depends on what he likes, Adventure or Slice of Life? Romance or Drama?"

"Well, we've only ever seen Grease together and he really seamed to like that."

"I know just the movie," Jim insisted.

Bagdwella slipped into the projector room quietly and began setting up. Bular wouldn't be there for a little bit since Strickler had said he had a meeting tonight.

"Dwelly?"

"Gah! You're early! I thought you'd be in your meeting for a little longer yet."

Bular chuckled, "Advantages of being in charge, I can cancel the meeting if I want. Especially if it's to get to you on our anniversary."

Bagdwella felt her hearts warm at that, "You remembered?"

"Of course! How could I forget?" Bular grinned and held out their basket for snacks, "Though I do tend to get it mixed up with the night I first saw you."

She smirked and pulled him down for a kiss.

"Well, if you brought the food then it's a good thing I brought you the surprise I did."

"Oh really?" He growled in her ear.

She giggled, "Yes. I convinced my niece and nephews to bring me some new movies for us to watch. Those whelps certainly know more about fleshbag movies than I ever will."

She slipped out of his arms and over to turn on the movie. Bular took the snacks and settled in to wait for Bagdwella. As soon as she hit play, the trolless ran over to the pickup truck they always lay in to watch their movies. Bular swept her up and they turned to the screen for the opening narrations. At first, Bagdwella wondered why her godson had recommended a children's movie. Then, a large green hand reached out and tore the page out of the story book. The narrator laughed. As the main character kicked open the door of his outhouse, they heard the opening chords of the opening song.

"Hey now, you're an all star..."

Bular laughed. Bagdwella grinned and turned to grab a snack from the basket. Neither of them said much as they watched. The main character met his plucky sidekick, had his home invaded, and went on his daring quest, finding love he had never known along the way. There were plenty of times Bagdwella wondered how in earth her friends let their whelps watch such a movie.

As the movie drew to a close and the credits began to roll she rolled over to look up at her boyfriend, "Did you like it, Sweet Bun?"

"Much more than I thought I would," Bular admitted, "I was a bit hesitant at the beginning. But it was actually very enjoyable."

Bagdwella leaned up to kiss him.

"Hi, everybody and welcome to the..."

She turned back to the screen. The movie wasn't over? Were other movies like this? What was going on?

Bular looked up, "I know this song. One of the changlings loves the singer. I've heard him singing it."

The song changed, then again, and again! Bular's tail hit against the bed of the truck in time with each song. Bagdwella bopped her head along. Then, the screen went dark and the credits continued to roll. The two trolls sat and stared.

"Well. That was something..."

"Yes it was. And you know what?"

"What?"

She grinned and grabbed his hand dragging him along on her way back to the projector room, "I can't see me lovin' nobody but you, for all my life..."

Bular laughed and swept her into his arms, twirling her around on their way into the projector room.
