KATY'S POV
Braydon pulls me into a hug as the entire room erupts in applause. I can barely hear anything, barely see beyond his shoulders. My senses are swamped with people calling my name, clapping, cheering but it all blends into a chaotic, happy blur.
When Braydon finally pulls back, he’s practically vibrating with excitement. “You did it.”
Allie spins me around and squeezes me into another hug. “I knew it. There’s no one better than you up there. I knew it,” she brags.
I hug Justin quickly, tears prickling at my eyes, and start walking down the aisle toward the stage. Hands reach out for high-fives, quick shakes, and cheers follow me every step. My stomach flips, my heart feels like it’s going to burst and I think I might throw up but it’s happiness, the kind that leaves you dizzy
