Chapter 18: Epilogue
Leo held the now four-year-old Laurie up so she could see the tiny infant lying in the crib.
"That's my little brother? Are you sure?"
"Yep. That's Christopher." He set Laurie on the floor and made sure Chris was securely covered with the green blanket. "Time for bed," he said to Laurie.
"Please, Daddy, can I stay up with you and Mommy? Please?"
"Nope. Mommy and I are going to bed and so are you."
Laurie hopped into her bed and Leo tucked her in. "Daddy, is Mommy really all better?"
"She's fine now, Sunshine. Why don't you go to sleep?"
"Okay. Goodnight, Daddy. I love you."
"I love you too." He kissed her forehead and turned off the light before walking out of the room.
He went to his bedroom where Piper was sitting up in bed. She had just come home from the hospital earlier that day. The doctors had kept her a week after Chris's birth for observation. The doctor recommended she take it easy for the next week or two.
"Are they asleep?" she asked.
"Yep," he said, stretching out beside her on the bed.
Piper laid against him, sharing body warmth. "It's good to be back home."
"I'm glad you are. You had us scared for a while."
"Sorry about that. I promise not try to again."
Chris started crying.
Both Piper and Leo got up and walked to his crib. Piper picked him up and gently began rubbing his back to sooth him.
Laurie came in the room. "Is he okay?"
"He's fine. He just needs his diaper changed."
"Can I help?"
"Sure."
It was a little messy letting Laurie help, but it got the job done. Piper laid Chris back in his crib and picked Laurie up. Leo wrapped his arms around the two of them and all three watched as tiny Chris slept.
This was their family, just as it should be.
