The guys all looked shocked.
"Congrats, man!"
"You two did seem like an awful good fit, come to think of it…"
He got up and went to Ivy's room, with the guys following him.
There was Ivy, asleep and completely oblivious to the fact that her father was right here, and that he really did want her. He had felt empty for a long time now, wondering about her and dreaming that she was alive. And here she was.
He gently lifted her out and sat in an armchair, placing her in his lap and hugging her gingerly, careful not to hurt her. He still couldn't quite believe that she was his…if she really was, then she was the best thing that had ever happened to him, he thought, twirling one of her blonde locks around his finger gently. Tears fell down his cheeks onto her hair, but they were no longer tears of sadness. He had no reason to be sad now.
The other three watched this from the doorway, their hearts warmed by how happy Tord seemed and the fact that Ivy had finally found her father. Tord was the best kind of father for someone like her, and she was the perfect daughter.
Eventually, Tord fell asleep hugging the little girl, and Edd picked up a blanket from the crib and wrapped it around them both, before they all left.
