Because one, she was a student, and two, well, he had this bromance thing going on with Hirsch! They HAD gone on vacation together, which granted, that didn't necessarily mean anything... because she'd totally go on vacation with Hattie and didn't have a 'thing' for Hattie.
"It's possible... I mean I don't recall seeing any pictures of possible girlfriend's when I was in his office last year." Oops? Had she not ever mentioned that before? But it wasn't what it seemed; it was just all the wards were full and she had a burn emergency after Herbology class, so the Healer instructed her to go to his office. Not that she minded; it was more cozy and private then the hospital beds.
Noelle was so sweet and caring. She nodded at the older girl, "thank you. I'll be sure to you let you know if something changes then." Also, why was she lacking confidence in herself? She was a Gryffindor; Skylar thought Gryffindors usually exuberated confidence. "Duh. I wouldn't have suggested it if I didn't think you should. You'd be brilliant." For real.
Hirsch and Reed... Mm.. Yeah. That was definitely a couple that Noelle would like to see together. She paused for a moment, thinking about them. Wait, they'd gone on vacation together??? Noelle wanted to figure out if it would be inappropriate for herself to ask Hirsch if he was seeing anyone. Judging by Sky's outburst of love, probably not. But we would see.
"
I train with Hirsch. I wonder if I could.... sneakily... get some information out of him." If she was able to. Being a prefect, you didn't want to toe the line too much. She had already lost points last term. "
And you didn't see any pictures?" Noelle would be sure to look at Hirschs office for any pictures around the office when she goes to talk to him.
Noelle may have been a Gryffindor, but she was also half of her mom who was a Hufflepuff. That included wondering if she was good enough. "
I train. But I haven't seen those Ilvermorny kids yet to know anything about them." She liked to know who she would be competing against.. if she was going to put her name in.
