It was now May 9th, and I decided to give Julie's present early.
"Hey Julie," I said. "Happy birthday."
I showed her a small box, and I told her to open it. She did so, and she saw that it was a ring with a emerald gemstone inside of it.
"Jem, it's beautiful, thank you…" Julie said, hugging me.
I wanted to ask her the question, but I didn't want to rush it. Although, I was curious on what she would say.
"Jem, we should get married." Julie said. "That's what are you thinking, right?"
"You're psychic?" I joked.
"No! I just know you so well." Julie answered, smirking.
"Well, if you want to get married, then consider that ring our engagement ring." I stated.
"I will…" Julie responded.
A few years passed, and we got married in a church. She wore a beautiful white dress that day, I had Dill as my best man, and she wanted her wedding ring to be my birthstone, so I gave her an amethyst ring, and we started on our way.
A few more years passed, and we soon bore a child; it was a boy, and we named him in Shaun Atticus Finch, and he looked a lot like me, our family was happy, and so were we, and there was nothing that was ever going to change that.
