Hey so my niece has been out of the hospital for a while, but now she's back in for some tests. I'm writing because I had a really good idea but I've literally been up all night so don't judge. Also, I think Rick said that paparazzi don't really follow Piper, but meh. I wanna do this.
Piper POV
After we had gotten over all of that, we went out for burgers. And we got swarmed.No, not with monsters, though I wish it had been those, because I can stab them. No, it was paparazzi. Since they had found me in Greece, they've been everywhere I go!
"Ms. McLean! Who is everyone else?"
"Piper, is that your boyfriend?"
"Is it true that you're pregnant?"
The last one caught me off guard.
"What? Pregnant? Oh you have got to be kidding me!" Jason shouted.
"There are rumors that you are pregnant! Care to talk about these, Ms. McLean?"
"All of us would like to talk to you." I glared at the only photographer remaining. He grinned.
"Great! Who first?"
"Me." Jason squeezed my hand and grabbed Paparazzi Boy by the shoulders, steering him towards a coffee place.
I snuck up behind them and listened as they sat.
"Now, listen here. Record this, and put it on the news. I want everyone to hear this." Jason growled.
The guy-who had murmured his name was Steve while being steered towards the coffee shop- waved to a guy behind him, who started filming.
"Piper is not- I repeat, not- pregnant!"
"Do you know who started that rumor, Mr.Grace?"
Jason sat back, off the edge of his seat.
"Honestly, Steve, I don't care. All I need to know is whoever started that rumor is sick. Who gets pleasure out of starting hurtful rumors about celebrities? It's sick!" He pounded his fist on the table, making it shake.
Steve nodded, obviously amused.
"Now, I'm done. But I think my cousin Percy wants to talk to you." Jason stood and started back to our group. I sprinted back, avoiding his sight, and got there just before him.
"Perce? You're up."
Percy stormed over and started yelling at them. We could hear him from here, until Annabeth ran over and calmed him down.
I'll let Percy tell you what he said.

Percy POV
I stormed over to that jerk of a paparazzi. Jason had muttered that the idiot's name was Steve.
"WHY WOULD YOU BELIEVE A STUPID, OBVIOUSLY FAKE RUMOR LIKE-" I shouted, until Annabeth ran over and told me to calm down. I agreed, reluctantly, seeing what she was talking about. That wasn't a a good idea for three reasons. One, all the water around me was getting agitated. Two, I was causing a scene. Three, monsters. Enough said about #3. I took a deep breath and sat down.
"Steve. Why would you believe a rumor like that? It- it's just so dumb!" I forced a laugh.
"Eh. I don't know, Percy."
"Don't call me that. That is reserved for my friends and family. You can call me Mr.Jackson, Steve."
"Okay. Uh, is that all? You kind of blew up."
