Theo found it a little hard to find his groove with the packing. Not because it was a difficult task, quite the opposite actually. It was incredibly easy. But, he felt obligated to turn around and face the girl who was talking to him. He liked to know that he was being listened to, so he just assumed that others must feel the same way. After grabbing a new box he nodded in response to the girl's question. "Yeah, I wasn't even supposed to be here today. But I like to help whenever I can." He said running his fingers through his hair nervously. Despite how genuinely kind Theo was, he hated acknowledging the humble act to himself or to anyone else. A faint pink brushed his cheeks, but he continued. "I was trying to get a spot organizing the events, but it was full. So I was sent in here." His eyes widened slightly as he heard the double meaning in his words. "Not that you guys aren't great! I just...I just meant this was the only place where they needed an extra pair of hands." He finished softly.

He was relieved when the attention was turned off of him. However nice, that girl was trying to be. Theo had somehow managed to string his words together in a way that made him seem like a douchebag. At least in his own mind, he came off like a douchebag. In reality, no one else would have taken offense to him saying that he was sent her as a secondary choice. It was a food bank. They were all here as volunteers and did work wherever work was needed. Theo took his time and loaded a couple more items into the boxes. Hearing someone ask a question about running, he could only assume it was meant for him seeing as how he was the late one of the bunch. "No, I biked over here. Though it wasn't much of a difference with how fast I was going trying to get here. But, alas, I have to worry no more for I have arrived to my destination in a fashionably late manner." He said with the corner of his mouth twitching up into a smile. He glanced up to see who had delivered the question. Spotting the blond boy not too far away, he nodded to himself. "Your name's Arthur, right?" He asked. He had seen him around a couple times before.
