"I'm sure." He's so relieved that his next breath comes out in a bit of a laugh. "Of course, I'm sure."
His eyes almost seem to sparkle as he answers, an extension of the smile that lights up the rest of his face. He's always bright, in some ways, but right now, it's easy to see why people say he shines.
"Are you? I can be a great deal of trouble, I am told."
He's teasing, of course, but he's also deliberately placing them on an equal level. He doesn't believe that he has any more reason to be unsure than she does- and he wants her to know it. He wants her to believe it too, but he's not under the illusion that that will happen easily or quickly.
