Trust isn't really the issue here. Steve sounds unsure, his heartbeat elevated and nervous. It's a personal hurdle, one he's still struggling with apparently. He sounded as though he earnestly wanted to say something though. Even little Steve has skeletons in his closet that take more than an idle shake to dislodge.
"Absolutely." This is said with complete honesty and seems to calm him down immensely. "I promise." To be trusted with this book on loan means a lot to him. Steve shifts on the couch and gets to his feet, and there's the distinct soft sound of the Murdock Bible being placed on a shelf nearby. "Definitely. I'll carry everything. Just give me a moment." Everything in this case means the replicated bridge and the cds Steve tested, so it's not as though this is going to be a heavy load. He's swift to gather them once he's in his big poofy swish swish coat and gloves.
