Okay first off I noticed a HUGE mistake in chapter 15 yesterday instead of writing 'literally' I put in the word 'laterally'. Sorry for the messed up word. Although reading it I found myself laughing. I guess I need to type slower. And thank you to you for comments. For your feed back and advice.
Another quick note about this next chapter. I'm sorry if it might not be as good my others because Cupid has never been a main character. So he might seem out of character.

Cupid arrived back at Gaea's cavern feeling pretty satisfied that he had succeeded in his plans. Although he had no doubt he could force the son of Poseidon to believe he is in love with Calypso. Soon, when Gaea became ruler, Cupid would become the one true god of love. He smiled darkly knowing that he was probably annoying his mother to no end. Tearing the protagonist to her little love drama away from his girlfriend.
He loved to destroy true love.
"I cannot believe that my plans are falling apart when they are so close to falling in place." Gaea muttered.
For the first time Cupid looked at the goddess. She was pacing back and forth in front of the magic screen. He would have laughed if he didn't have so much invested in keeping the goddess happy. Cupid shook his head and walked forward.
"Not even the great Percy Jackson can fight the spell I put him under." He assured he as he adjusted his wings. The god was currently very satisfied with how well he had muddled with his mother's favorite couple.
"It's not about the boy you fool!" She snarled. Gaea sharply pointed in the direction of the empty cage. "It's that GIRL, that daughter of Athena, if she manages to find the island before my plans are complete than all is lost."
He shrugged helplessly which seemed to annoy the earth goddess even more. "So what are you planning on doing about it?"
Gaea turned away from him. He could see her shoulders were stiff with worry. Cupid never really understood what the dirt woman's plans were besides the fact it involved both the sea nymph and the son of Poseidon. Cupid stretched as if nothing was wrong, walked forward, and pat the goddess on the shoulder as if he were comforting her.
"I've got it, I have to push my plans forward."
Cupid raised an eye brow, "And what would those plans entail."
"A sea nymph marrying a demigod, the nymph taking the weight of the sky to protect her new husband, freeing Atlas so he can join my side, and me dipping the demigod in the river lithe and turning him into my general." She listed with a malevolent smile on her face. "Imagine having the boy who ruined my son's plans on my side, I shall have control of the sea."
Cupid wondered for a moment how she would trick Calypso into taking the weight of the sky. Even if she did threaten Percy how would she ensure that the son of Poseidon wouldn't interfere. From what Cupid's heard, the boy wouldn't just stand by like an invalid. Unless she planned to erase his memories at the same time she tricked the nymph into taking the burden. Ah, he loved the idea of using Calypso's love for the boy against her.
"So do I hear wedding bells in the very near future?" Cupid asked. Thinking of the agony his mother would be in at the sight of Percy Jackson marrying any girl besides Annabeth made the idea even more intriguing. "Who is going to be on the guest list. A marriage isn't official without guest"
"I will bring the guest you go and put the whole marriage idea into both of their heads." Gaea told him as she changed the scene from Calypso's island to an over head view of a city . "Use a little of your magic if you have to. And once that task is done find those demigods on that infernal ship and make sure they don't make it in time to save their little friends."
Cupid gave an evil smile, "As you wish."
As he disappeared to make Gaea's plans come true. Oh, how he loved to destroy love.
