Noel's first 5yrs of her life were normal as they could be with two loving parents and an annoying twin brother but just weeks before Christmas and their 6th birthday that all changed. Her brother Christopher woke up late at night with an earache, which he was plagued with for years, her parents decided that it was bad enough to take him to the ER and it was decided that Catherine would take Christopher and Sean would stay home with Noel. Both Noel fell back asleep in her parents bed with Sean got a call from Catherine that they were on there way home. Sean moved Noel to her bed and went back to his room to wait. Several hours later Sean was woken up by a pounding on the front door as went to open the door he saw his friend and colleague from the Warrenton PD at then door and he knew something was wrong. Noel hearing the same pounding on the door was looking through the banisters at the front door over hearing her father and his friend talking...."They are gone Sean. A drunk driver hit them head on in their lane."
After the funeral Sean quit his job at the PD, signed Noel up for ballet and relied heavily on both his parents and Catherine's parents in raising a very head strong little girl. Sean threw himself into the "bottle" to cope but never once lashed out at Noel and she never felt unloved by him but he did keep her at an arms distance for years which hurt their relationship that they would fix in her early 20s.
Noel spent most of her childhood touring the U.S. with her ballet company, growing up on the road, picking up bad habits along the way. One was a way to stay thin and competitive which paid off in a way. By the time Noel was 17 she had assumed the prima ballerina role in her company and caught the eye of the lead male dancer, Matt. Matt was 4yrs older than her but that didn't stop him from making advances at her and feeding her ego. When she turned 18 he saw his chance and swept her off her feet, wined and dined her in every city they stopped in. This led to a 2yr relationship that would leave Noel a shell of a person and at her lowest weight ever, 98lbs. After years of abuse from Matt, Noel finally broke free when the ballet company had there last show of the season in Birmingham, Alabama. Noel found her opening to escape when Matt had to be sent to Atlanta for an injury. She packed up everything she had and moved in with a friend she had in the area, she never looked back.
She continued to practice and got an audition with the New York City Ballet but 3 days before that audition she tore her ACL in her right knee. She spent most of the year after the surgery in recovery.
When she turned 21 she got a job at local
Vanilla Unicorn franchisee as a bartender but soon turned into a dancer. She then met her next boyfriend Bobby which only lasted for about a month before they called it off but in that time she met someone else. The VU was holding a open stage night when a tall and very handsome man by the name of
Randy Johnson took the stage and Noel couldn't keep her eyes off of him. They ended up going out after the VU closed and haven't left each other's side every since.
Randy being a cop and with her fathers push, Noel decided to put in an application to their local EMS and she was accepted. She became a paramedic and FTO in their city but she still likes the trill of being on stage.
