Startled was an understatement. Iwan felt like he could fall out of his chair at Marissa's accusation. She wasn't good for anyone? Did she not see how different of a man he was now that she was in his life? It was remarkable to him, his teammates pointed it out all the time!
"Marissa," Iwan said, unable to hide his surprise. He let out a nervous laugh, looking very confused. "You've changed the way I live my life. You've changed me for the better, I---darling, I don't know how you could possibly think you're no good for..."
Iwan rarely felt the need to be bold or brave. The Tornadoes had helped him become a stronger person, but the most drastic of change in his life had come from being with Marissa. She was a fire in his life that was constantly burning and making him move faster and harder, made him be better. He had to make her see that, even if she didn't want to move in with him, she was still a positive, wonderful light in his life.
"I love you," he said clearly, honestly. "And that's not going to change any time soon. Whether you move in or not, I just want you to know that."
