-Epilogue: 5 Years Later-
"Save the horses, momma! Save the horses, daddy!" The energetic 3 year old bounced on the end of the bed, yelling with all her might. "Save! The! Horseeees!"
Cory grumbled and opened a sleepy eye at the tiny toddler. Her dark hair was still a mess from sleeping but he could tell from her big smile that she was wide awake.
"Shhh, Eliza. Mommy's still sleeping. She didn't sleep well last night."
The little girl frowned and plopped down in the tall man's lap, petting her tiny hands to the mass of identical brown curls on the pillow beside them. "Because of the baby kickin'?"
"Yeah. The baby kept her up." Cory explained, brushing his daughter's hair out of her face.
Eliza climbed out of his arms and nestled herself at Lea's side, the woman sleepily lifting her head in response. "Did I win a Tony..." She grumbled, coming to her senses and grinning at the little girl at her side. "Hi munchkin."
"Momma."
The Broadway star pecked her daughter on the nose and sat up. "Who wants some breakfast?"
"Ganic oatmeal!"
"Organic oatmeal it is, Miss Liza! Babe?"
"Daddy wants peanut butter, he always does." The three-year-old informed with a tilt of her head.
"That's right!" Cory laughed proudly, looking up to his wife. "Bring me some peanut butter and we'll see about some kisses."
