Turn away 'cause I need you more
Personality>> Phillip is quite often compared to a rock as he doesn't express his feelings that well and usually not seen with a smile on his face. He is an old man teacher; aged in his mind but with a youthful look, in a thirty-three year old’s body. Phillip is an outspoken individual and will not hold back his opinions on anything. With the rest of his personality you would think he has a slight hatred towards his job, but really he loves it. Like stated before he just doesn’t like or just isn’t good at expression his emotions. Phillip loves to work with children and is usually a calming experience for him. This calming experience also is the same with animals and he loves to spend time with them. The man is humble about a lot of things, like his looks and his intelligence. For the reason of the horrible experience of being rejected by his ex, Phillip is like a closed book with a lock on it and the key thrown away.

Secrets>>
- The same kid who took him to court had bribed Phillip to give him a A on a test as he knew that he wasn't going to pass it. The kid bribed Phillip with 2k in cash, so no one could see the movement of the money. Phillip accepted this bribe and then later the little brat took him to court, this part of of his life haunts him to no end.
It’s the way I’m feeling I just can’t deny
Appearance>> Well honestly Phillip is downright handsome. He stands at the height of six feet two inches, which is fairly tall, at least in his family. His eyes are his most spectacular feature; they are bright blue and sort of hypnotizing. Most of the time he wears facial hair and his facial hair and the hair on his head are the same hue of brown, they are both on the darker side. The man is extremely muscular and knows how to flaunt it, but he doesn’t do it often. His attire usually consists of more mature outfits; he is rarely seen in public wearing sweatpants and graphic tees, unless he is going for a run. He usually wears a button-down and jeans aren’t really in his classroom attire, but in the barn jeans are the only thing he is seen wearing, pants wise.
Markings>> A few scares
But I’ve gotta let it go
Medical History>> Broken Foot, Broken Arm, Fractured Thumb
Criminal History>> Won Case, Records Expunged
Full History>> Phillip was the youngest child of three; he had two older sisters. They were sporty each playing, softball, field hockey, and soccer. As for Phillip he was always the dorky younger brother who loved school, especially math. His parents enjoyed him to get into something other than school. He always had an interest in animals, horses especially. His grandparents had four horses and would let Phillip ride around on them. Once he expressed to his parents that he wanted to learn how to ride horses, they sent him to his grandparents to learn how to take care of them and ride. With his grandfather being a trainer he took his professionalism down a few notches to teach his grandson how to ride.
After a few years, at that time he was about thirteen or fourteen, he begged his parents to buy him a horse. Since he learned how to ride western, he got a gelding with a lot of character. His name was Chief and he was a great horse, Phillip loved to come home from school and just ride him around until it was time to come in and eat. It got to the point where the boy was leaving out his school work. His parents threatened to sell Chief, but then Phillip got his act together and got all his school work done before he went to ride the gelding. Sadly Chief was an older horse when they got him and he got to the old age of 20 and he had to be put down. It broke Phillip’s heart and he refused to ride another horse for a while.
Phillip only had the horse for about five years and he was 19 and had just graduated the year before and was heading off to college for his bachelor’s degree in education. He went for four years like was required and then he got certified to become a math teacher. During his years of schooling he met this woman that he fell head over heels in love with and he proposed only to be rejected and left. Ever since he has been the way he is now. He hopped around to a few schools but it just didn’t work out. Especially at one in the city of New York, when he was accused of throwing a marker at a kid's head after he asked him to stop talking on multiple occasions. Phillip never did this, except for the asking him to stop talking, but the kid had rich parents and so the issue went to court and no one would testify for him except this one boy who he had formed sort of a bond with, he was an orphan and had no one for the rich kid's parents to make their life a living hell. After him two more students testified for Phillip, the jury found him not guilty and he filled for Expungement.
The boy and Phillip had formed such a bond that they were often seeing each other outside of school, he helped him in ways that no one else could, and since his girlfriend rejecting him, Jackson was the first person he really opened up to. Phillip adopted Jackson, he was thirteen at the time and that was about two years ago. They both shared the common interest of riding horses and so they often go riding together. When he saw that a private academy needed an algebra teacher he applied for the job and got it. Excited he up, with Jackson, and moved to the Kentucky to take the position and have Jackson start a new life, with horses.
We found love in a hopeless place
