"Dress?" I ask as we walk through the woods
"The skin of the animal, got to skin it." He explains. I just nod as I take in all this information.
"Should be called undress then." I reply with laughter. He just rolls his eyes and then he crowches down and tells me to Sh. I follow behind him and look out for whatever he's looking for.
I see a small squirrel on a tree. About 30 feet in front of us. Daryl reloads his bow and hands it to me.
"Here." He whispers as he hands me the bow. Our hands touch. I couldn't help but shiver to his touch. He pushes me to the front of him as he doesn't break eye contact with the squirrel.
I take in a deep breath in as i raise the bow to eye level. I was entirely new to this, I mean he can do it why can't I? I ask myself. He kneels beside me and tells me what to do.
"Breathe in and then out. Once you are done breathing out, shoot." He whispers in my ear. I nod as I do exactly what he says.
I did it!
I shot the poor squirrel, his body lays on the ground with an arrow in its side. I run to it and pick it up. As I dangle it in the air I send a cocky smile towards Daryl. He just scoffs and takes the squirrel and places it on a tree stump nearby.
"Good job but, we ain't done yet." He says as he pulls out a hunting knife. He places it in my hands as I grip it tightly. "Start just below the stomach and stop when you reach his neck." He orders.
I stick the knife in and start cutting. Blood pulls around the animal, the blood getting on my hands. I jokingly whipped my hands on Daryl's jacket, he seemed okay with it. As I was done I handed the knife back.
"Got to gut it." He says. I look at the poor dead animal in disgust. "Chicken?" He says.
"Shut up." I say as I jokingly push him to only barely even move him. I sigh as I take in a deep breath and go hands in. I take out the edible stuff and place it beside the body. The non edible I simply threw out.
"Nice, time to cook the fucker." He says as he starts a fire. I couldn't help but smile. I couldn't even wait for more he has to teach me. Whatever it is, I will be ready.
