Hello People! Sorry that I haven't written anything for this story in four mmonths, but 0ne, I forgot about it, and two, I haven writer's block. Its a rreally sort on, so sorry about that. I couldn't figure out anything I could put. I kind of just want to get to the signing, but I have to have a bit of the back story for Avery. Next chapter will be in Ed's POV and will be the day of the signing right before they go out. Again, sorry about the length. I couldn't think of anything. Anway, enjoy Chapter 1 of Give Me Love (Like Never Before)
So, I love you people and goodbye.

"Avery! You need to wake up right now or you’re going to be late for school.” my mother called up the stairs. I groaned before turning over in my bed and pulling my covers over my head. She was even more annoying than my alarm. Five minutes passed before I heard footsteps coming up the stairs. I threw my blanket off my body and sat up as fast as I could.
“I’m up!” I yelled just as my mom opened my bedroom door.
“Alright. Now get ready for school.” she smiled at me and then left to go back downstairs.
I got dressed in my clothes for the day. My outfit consisted of skinny jeans, a black long sleeve shirt, and converse. I grabbed my backpack and ran down the stairs.
“Would you like anything for breakfast?” my mom asked once I reached the kitchen.
“No thanks. I have to get to school. I love you mom. See you tonight.” I kissed her on the cheek and ran out the door.
“Hey, Avery!” I closed my locker before turning around and rolling my eyes.
“What do you want, Gwynn?” I sighed.
“I saw you looking at Ben today. What did I tell you about that?” Gwynn growled as she backed me up against my locker. I looked down before answering.
“You said not to.” I told her.
“That’s right. And if I catch you doing it again, you’ll be sorry.” She shoved me before walking away with her group of friends, laughing. I sighed and turned back around to my locker to open it. I grabbed my calculus book and closed my locker. I took a deep breath and walked to calculus class.
School couldn’t have ended any quicker. It was hell today. From being called a slut, to be accused for looking at someone’s boyfriend, I was ready to lie down and take a long nap. That’s definitely not what ended up happening. I’m standing here in front of my mirror, staring at my reflection, and picking out my many flaws. I grabbed my phone and put on ‘Give Me Love’ by Ed Sheeran, my favorite song. I looked back into the mirror. All I saw was a worthless girl who nobody likes. Before I knew it, tears were rolling down my cheeks. I screamed and pushed myself off the sink I was leaning on. I couldn’t think straight. My body led me to the cabinet below the sink. I rummaged around until I found what I was looking for. A razor. The tears were still streaming down my face as I laid the razor down on my wrist next to several other pink, faded lines. I pressed down and slid it across my wrist. Red liquid started to follow from the cut. I repeated this three more times on each wrist before realizing what was happening.
I threw the razor across the room and put my arms under running water. I took gauze out from under the sink. I wrapped it around both my wrists and slid down my bathroom door, crying.
And nobody, not even my mom, knew.
