Dear fellow readers,
I decided to write a fanfic book for "Tuck Everlasting" I'm super excited to start this! One of my reading class story's was "Tuck Everlasting". One of my class mates hated the ending, I didn't mind it, however it wasn't one of my favorite endings (although "The Fault in our Stars" was even worse...) I will have to work on my "Nancy Drew and Hardy Boys: Cautious Ghost first though... So in between school, ND and HB and this new book, I'm going to be soooo busy. So anyway, the book is about Winnie and Jessie and Miles. I added a new character. Her name is Leah Foster. Soo enjoy the book. Kay? Good.
Later her and Review on

Chapter 1
It was hot summer day in the month of August. The little spring that know one knew about, sat there in the middle of the forest dripping water as it always did. There was only one family that knew of the spring. Their names were the Tucks. How I know you may ask? Well, you'll figure it out sooner rather than later. If you still can't I'll tell you.
***Tuck Everlasting***
Winnie Foster and her dear cousin, Leigh Anne Foster, were laying on the ground watching the clouds like they always did. Leigh Anne, being 20, had been moved in with the Fosters when she was 19, when her parents and siblings had died on that cold winter night. Her being the only one alive. Mrs. Mary Jane Hadens Foster and her husband, Leigh Anne's father's brother, Mr. George Franklin Foster took her in, since they were her only living relatives. Now Mrs. Mary Foster disliked Leigh Anne very much for her beautiful long, blonde-brownish hair and her wonderful facial structure and even her attitude. When Leigh Anne first arrived, Mrs. Foster saw Leigh Anne's hair, and cut it all off leaving her with some what of long hair that went to her shoulders. Even Mrs. Foster was jealous of her own daughter! Winnie was beautiful for 15 and had grown up very quickly. Having the most beautiful auburn hair and most beautiful of green eyes. Her attitude was a mixture of all her family. In the while, Mrs. Foster hated the two girls, she still had to take care of them in fear of her husband. "Winifred! Leigh Anne! Get off that grass and come inside. It's to hot outside and you'll ruin your dresses!" said Mrs. Foster. "Yes, mother we will be right there!" said Winnie, annoyed her mother was interrupting Leigh Anne's and her daydreams about life. "You know what Leigh Anne." said Winnie. "What?" asked Leigh Anne. "You can move any day of the week and yet you stay here. With my mother. Who slaps you and puts you down in the cellar." said Winnie. "You're point is?" asked Leigh Anne. "Why don't you leave and start you're family? Find you're true love. You can bring me along if you want. That way we can both find our true loves." said Winnie. "Winifred! If your momma heard that I'd be locked in the cellar for a week!" cried Leigh Anne. Leigh Anne saw Winnie's face. "Look. When you are 17, I'll take you and all your clothes and animals, and take you to New York. If you like it, you can stay, if not we both come here to TreeGap." said Leigh Anne. "Okay. Deal." Winnie said. "Winfred! Leigh Anne! Father's back!" cried Grandma Foster. They pulled their dresses up, so they could run, and ran to the house to greet Mr. Foster. While they weren't looking, a man in a yellow suit passed by their front gate and smiled, deciding to come back later. This man was looking for the family known as the Tucks. So have you made the connections yet? About who I am? No, I'm not the author. I'm a character of course! Just passing this story so my kids can tell theirs and theirs can tell my great grandchildren. If I ever have any...
***Tuck Everlasting***
After supper and eating with the Foster family, Leigh Anne and Winnie went outside to catch fireflies. That was when the Man in the Yellow suit came and had a word with the girls. "Excuse me. Miss?" he asked. Leigh Anne noticed first and asked "May I help you sir?" she asked, walking up to him. "Yes. Maybe." he said. "Do you know the Tuck family?" he asked. "Why, I've only lived here for a year, sir. Please wait a minute. Cousin!" said Leigh Anne. By then Winnie and Mrs. Foster noticed the man in the bright yellow suit. While Winnie walked over, Mrs. Foster came out on the porch, "Winifred! Who are you talking to?" Mrs. Foster asked. "I do not know mother!" Winnie said back. The man in the yellow suit asked again about the Tucks. "No sir. My family and I don't get out much.." said Winnie. By then, Mrs. Foster had come to Winnie and Leigh Anne's side. "Why in the name of the Lord are you bothering my family at this time of night? Do you have business with my husband?" asked Mrs. Foster. "No, no. Just looking for a certain family, my mother's best friend's family. That is." said the man. "We don't get out much. Now if you'll excuse us." said Mrs. Foster. "Oh. Alright thank you and have a good evening." said the man. "Thank. You. I. Think. I. Will." said Mrs. Foster through gritted teeth.
So.. Thanks for reading. I have school tomorrow, so I won't be posting till after. I changed my mind on Leah's name. I wanted to put Leah's name in. That's when the "Blind Side" comes in. I love the name Leigh Anne. So I used it in the book.
So yeah. Have a wonderful evening wherever you live! This is also a practice to up my book writing skills!
Good Night Fan Fiction
