We have a tie between 1 and 3, so i decided it via wheel picker...we're going with 1! After getting some feedback, i'll start making these chapters longer...after this one.

Once they're there, Laurel looks over to the self checkouts to see if they're open. Much to her relief, they are.

"T-thank goodness..." Laurel utters as she squirm walks.

"What?" Sunny wonders.

"The self checkouts are open." Laurel tells her. "I'm happy about that...d-don't wanna risk it with a cashier."

Sunny chuckles. "Okay then."

They head over there, and at this time, there's not too many Pokemon using them. One of them isn't even in use at all! Delighted, Laurel walks over there, almost losing control of her aching bladder along the way. But it would see relief soon enough...hopefully. The fire rabbit scans the packages with no issue and hardly anyone else paying attention. Once the total comes up, Laurel digs through her shorts pockets before finding her wallet, taking out some coins and money, putting the coins in first, followed by the money one bill at a time while Sunny gets the pull-ups in their bags.

Once the processing is done, Laurel smiles and gives Sunny a thumbs up before grabbing the receipt and putting it in her pocket along with the wallet.

"You actually take these things with you?" Sunny asks.

"Mm-hmm! Daddy says you can get cash back on these things, so i always take them home with me." Laurel answers.

"Huh...i didn't know that." Sunny puts a paw to her chin. "I might just start doin' that...are we ready to head home?"

Another sharp bladder pang gets Laurel to put her hands to the front of her shorts. "N-not yet! L-let's get to a bathroom!"

"Yikes...yeah, you don't look good." Sunny observes with a frown. "Do you need to hold my paw? I'm fine holding a bag with just one."

"Ngh...s-sure." Laurel slowly nods, reaching out to grab ahold of Sunny's free forepaw. Once she does, they begin the walk to the public bathrooms.
