Dib smiled and lifted his arms out. He was never one for athletics… at all… But Lard Nar wasn't burned by the water… They played in an abandoned beach for hours, enjoying the warmth, the water and the birds that would come by.
By the end of the day, Dib was past being mildly sunburned and laying on the now-cool sand made him sigh contently. Lard Nar lay next to him, frowning.
"You're turning pinker than usual."
Dib chuckled, "Yeah, sun burned."
"But…" The alien turned on his side and gently pressed a finger to Dibs arm, soon releasing it and watching the color change, "… Your sun is so far away… How has it burned you."
Dib shrugged and looked out the other way, watching along the beach. "Dunno. Just another human weakness, I guess."
Just a short thing I did for a challenge. Don't like it as much as the others, though.
