To be honest, the Headmistress intimidated her a little bit. Noelle had never lost points before but last year, the Headmistress had taken them from her. So she didn't know if she was in good favor or bad favor with her. Not to mention her mishap in the portal last term. The only encounters she'd really had with the Headmistress hadn't been good ones.

So needing a signature from her, was frightening. Noelle needed it though. She made her way through the castle and stopped outside the stone gargoyle. She looked at it and took a deep breath before .... she talked to the gargoyle. "Hi, I need to speak with the Headmistress, please." Asking nicely never hurt, right?
The gargoyle remained stoic as ever while the prefect approached it. Needless to say, it remembered this one, but only because the headmistress had taken points from the girl last term practically right in front of it. Gryffindors were rather odd creatures, that much it had observed after all these years of guarding the office behind it.

No matter how nice they were, however, it wasn't going to step aside for them without the password. Sweet-talking the statue never did work out in the end. There were very few people in the world that it would step aside for, without a password being muttered. Unfortunately for Miss Summers, she wasn't one of those people. She would have to wait for the headmistress just like everyone else.

After a few minutes went by, though, the stone gargoyle did leap aside, exposing the spiral staircase that lead to the headmistress's dwelling. However, it wasn't an invitation for the girl to climb up those stairs. The headmistress herself was making her way down.
