Daryl was holding Sophia with her back to the Deer not letting her see what Merle was doing.

'Shes' what like 5 month's old she doesn't know what I'm doing Daryl,' Merle told him.

'She doesn't need to see you pulling Bambi apart,' Daryl told him.

'Don't call it Bambi then,' Merle mumbled to him. 'Go put the baby down and help me please, we could do it in less time,'

'I missed her, I don't wana,' Daryl kissed and snuggled the baby a little, they were standing out in the back yard Merle had it hanging and had pulled the skin off. Rick was standing off to the side leaning on the fence drinking a coffee just watching. 'She's missed me, see,' To prove his point Sophia gave him a toothless grin.

'Put the baby down,' Merle growled at him.

'Fine, come on lets find your Mama,' Daryl moved back towards the house to pass the baby back so he could help Merle. 'Merle said I had to give her back, help him,'

Daryl handed her back to Carol and headed back outside to help Merle. Carol as pleased he brought her back, she wasn't sure how she felt about him having the baby out there while the were pulling the deer apart, she could see he had her back too it. To be honest it was freaking her out. She never knew anyone who hunted before, she just didn't think Sophia needed to see it being cut up.

'It gets better,' Andrea looked over at her sitting at the table looking at her watching the men, 'Or just pretend you brought it at the supermarket,'

'I mean, looking at it like that,' Carol screwed up her face.

'Remember they had a rough childhood, they hunted for food, gathered, provided, they see this is a way to provide, even though we can go to the supermarket if we wanted to.' Andrea stated.

Carol nodded understanding, Daryl had told him some of his childhood, his back and body covered the rest of the story of what his dad was really like. She just didn't think the 5month old baby needed to see it. They could talk about it later. He might have different ideas on what he wanted to expose her too, she could tell he knew she was too little to see what they were doing which is why he had her back to Merle and was standing back watching talking to her instead.

'I didn't know people still hunted, I guess I knew they did, or he did other wise he wouldn't have helped us, but its one thing to know but another to see it,' Carol put her hand over her mouth seeing a cut she didn't want to see.

'If it makes you feel better they eat it all, its not just like sport, then they give some to some families needing help with food, so its not wasted.' Andrea told her.

'I just don't want to watch,' Carol said, 'Can I put a movie on?'

She sat beside Lori on the couch who was half asleep with Carl asleep on her lap, Andrea put a girlie movie on for them all to watch while the men did men stuff outside.

'I've been thinking about what you said about having a baby,' Andrea said quietly, Lori's eyes flew open and looked in her direction. 'You think I could do it? Work part time, get someone to help, or Jo or something?'

'I'll help,' Lori said, 'We can all help, I mean, your husband owns his own work shop,'

'Yeah, but he need to be there, even doing the accounts and ordering parts and stuff, he should really get an office girl,' Andrea mused.

Carol waved her hand around, 'I can type, and do stuff, like use the phone, and write stuff down, I mean how hard can it be?' Carol looked at them, 'I need a job,'

'Talk to Merle, they need someone in the office even for a few hours a day, you could probably even take Soph while she's little,' Andrea told her.

Carol moved Sophia seeing she was asleep moved quietly to put her into her bed in Daryl's room, going into the kitchen to make herself a drink, 'Should I ask him? Like today?'

'I'll talk to him about the baby stuff, then the office stuff, and he should be buttered up with the baby talk to want help so it will free him up to help with a baby if he has help in the office.' Andrea mused.

'So your going to trick him into giving me a job? Carol giggled.

'With sex, Carol,' Andrea nodded and laughed her head off, Lori and Carol giggled at Andrea's laughter, just then the guys come in to get cold drinks stopping to wash their hands before coming into the room.

'Whats so funny?' Merle asked.

'We were talking about sex,' Andrea admitted looking over at him, Daryl looked worried, Rick seemed interested.

'I'm a stallion?' Merle asked, 'You tell them that,'

'Of course Merle that is why we are laughing,' all the women started with giggles again, Daryl come over to give Carol a kiss, without touching her because he was covered in Deer gunk.

'Your not telling tales are you?' He asked her,

'No Daryl, not once did I call you a stallion!' she giggled.

'Cheeky whench,' he muttered as he went outside with a can of coke. They all laughed again as they went outside.
