Aphrodite was laughing quietly in her cabin with her kids including her son Eros surrounding her. Lounging on a red couch she recollected to her darling children what was happening with their newest love triangle.

" Now you all know those two new boys here at camp half blood. Young Harry a soon to become god and Thanatos the god of death." Said Aphrodite dramatically laying a hand on her forehead and resting her head on the arm rest, amber hair spilling over. Raising her feet off the floor she let them rest daintily on the couch.

The girls and some guys sighed at the thought of Harry. One girl with amber hair and blue eyes tugged at her mothers satin cream colored nightgown.

Aphrodite letting her hand that had once been on her forehead rest on the back of the couch, turned to her freckled faced daughter and asked, " What is it my dear?"

The girl dreamily sighed, " Mother, Harry is so cute!"

Not wanting to waste her mother's time the amber haired girl hurried on. Smiling with pearl white teeth (trying to get her way) she asked, " Mother, Harry is so handsome and some of us were wondering if you or brother Eros could make him fall in love with one of us!"

Aphrodite smiled and laughed under her breath. Raising into a sitting position, she let her feet touch the floor. Crossing her ankles and placing her hands in her lap, she bowed her head.

" Regretfully my dear, I cannot condone anyone falling in love with young Harry."

Raising her hand to silent the complaints sure to come. She lifted her head and continued, " If I let one of you fall for Harry. Another would get jealous and they would fight for him. The cabin would be split into two or more sides and tear itself apart. Not only that, but I would be accused of favoritism. Besides I already have a plan for young Harry."

The cabin's occupants looked towered their parent with interest. Aphrodite smirked enjoying being the center of attention and so decided to draw it out.

" Now you all know of Thanatos and Apollo. Thanatos god of painless death and Apollo god of -"

She was cut off by one of her boy children, " Yes, yes we know! Apollo god of music, poetry, archery and driver of the sun chariot! Just get to the point."

Aphrodite annoyed at being interrupted scowled on the inside, but on the outside placed a particularly painful smile. With a voice of poison coated honey she said, " Be patient honey, I was getting to that."

Eros winced blonde hair falling into his twenty year old face. Sky blue eyes squinted in sympathy. Contrary to belief he had grown, but because his mother loved to flaunt his baby pictures, the humans saw him as such.

Eros knew that tone, Aphrodite was going to punish that young man, probably by causing him heartbreak. The girl he was dating might find someone else and cheat on him only for the poor boy to find out, or she might just break up with him. Eros out of anybody, well besides his wife knew how cruel his mother could be even to her own children.

Aphrodite continued like nothing had happen, " Harry the son of the big three and a mortal woman. Godly blood slowly taking over and the boy of great intrigue to the gods. Is utterly clueless of the two powerful men starving for his love like dogs."

The rest of the cabin nodded and whispered to each other, " It's true."

"Didn't you see the way they looked at him?"

"I even heard them with my own ears, they practically proclaimed their love to him while he was asleep."

Eros wanting to find out what his mother was planning shouted, " SILENT!"

Immediately all was quiet, Aphrodite smiled, " Yes, well Thanatos and Apollo bothered by each other. Came to me seeking help in the quest to win over Harry for themselves."

Eros with a sinking feeling moaned, " Oh, mother you didn't."

Aphrodite smirked, " Oh, but I did."

The children looked back and forth between the two immortals.

Aphrodite seeing her children's confusion elaborated, " I have a potion that will make the drinker fall in love with the one who wanted the potion. This potion is so strong it increases the love of the dispenser and makes the drinker so in love thoughts of leaving never even go through either heads. After a couple of days they are literally soul mates, which by the way are real. It's also what I call this potion, but to get the potion to work they have to put some part of them into the potion."

Aphrodite smiled at the looks of awe on the faces of her little ones. Loving that each and everyone of them was hanging on her every word.

" Thanatos and Apollo both came to me at different times of course. I gave them the potion and they placed a hair into it. Thanatos turned from clear to a icy blue. While Apollo's turned to gold. Each with a rosy shine to them."

All of the demigods looked positively enchanted, Aphrodite basked in their looks of wonder. Eros far from thinking this is a wonderful thing asked, " And what will happen if they both give Harry the potion?"

Aphrodite turned to Eros, " He will fall for both of them."

Eros rarely showed any connection to his father. There was only a handful of times when his father's temper popped up and it was usually accompanied by the urge to strangle his mother…now was one of those times.

" If what you say is true about the potion. He would want both of them, they would not want to share. And he would be driven into MADNESS!" Eros finished with a shout.

Aphrodite indifferent to her son's temper shrugged and turned away. While her back was turned Eros made the gesture of choking her.

One of the nicer kids of the Aphrodite cabin asked, " Mom, if Harry falls in love with both of them how would that work?"

Aphrodite delighting the conversation of love said, " They would have a threesome."

The same camper looked puzzled, " But wouldn't they all have to love each other?"

Aphrodite smiled, " Not exactly, but lets not get into that. I suppose Harry will just be driven into madness…or they could share him each one gets him for three days and Harry gets the last day to himself."

The campers laughed and began to talk among themselves, all except Eros excited about their mother's trickery and deceit. Eros turned his back on the Aphrodite cabin and walked out.

With head down he walked pass the joyful campers talking with their parents.

" Good catch Percy!"

Eros lifted his head and saw Poseidon fishing with Percy. Near by Thalia was listening to music and educating her dad in the puke lifestyle. Turning his head to the left he saw Hades and Nico having a picnic, nap, training time. It would have been a little less creepy without the basket made out of bones, the ever growing shadows and the occasional skeleton guard.

Eros briefly debated whether or not to tell of what his mother was planning. Then he thought of their reactions, winched and decided against it.

' Funny how the immortals seem to get selfish over their lives, when the mortals seem so willing to throw theirs away for multiple reasons.' Thought Eros as he walked away feet self-consciously taking him to the infirmary or more importantly Harry.

Eros looked up to see the infirmary and saw Apollo looking quite smug being led by one of his kids out of the infirmary.

"Do you think Harry will like his food dad?" Asked the child as they passed by Eros.

Eros perked up there was still time to stop this. As Eros raced to the infirmary thoughts racing through his head the one that kept appearing was, ' Harry's been through so much the least I can do is stop him from sinking into madness.'

Eros reach the doorway only to be stopped by someone in his way. Taking a step back Eros saw the person in his way was Thanatos holding a empty bottle in his right hand.

" Hello Eros, where are you off too?" Asked Thanatos with his hands at his side.

" I was going to visit Harry, it's not everyday we get a new god." Answered Eros calmly while on the inside he was screaming for Thanatos to get out of his way.

"Okay, Harry just woke up. He's eating right now the change seemed to have taking it's toll on him."

" Have you told him yet?" Asked Eros curiosity getting the best of him.

" No, it was decided to wait."

Eros nodded and figuring the quickest way of getting him out of here was by making him uncomfortable. "So what's with the empty vile?"

Thanatos held the bottle up and asked, " This?"

Eros nodded and Thanatos throw the bottle into the air and blasted it into nothingness.

" Nothing." Thanatos then walked around Eros and walked away.

Eros shook his head and stepped into the infirmary. Looking over at Harry he saw that the young god was eating, but his cup was still completely full. Eros was filled with joy, he still had time to stop this catastrophe, but that joy soon turned to horror as Harry lifted the cup. Eros lifted his arm as if to reach across the room to stop him, " H-"

Then Harry took a big gulp and seeing Eros he set the cup down and asked, " Do I know you?"

Eros answer was to shake his head while standing in the doorway with one arm raised and a look of horror on his face.

Review when I went to type in mother I typed monster. So it would have come out,

" Monster, Harry is so handsome and some of us were wondering if you or brother Eros could make him fall in love with one of us!" My computer says that's seven pages!
