    Summary

    Adam's eyes met the man's in a fleeting moment, and stayed fixed there, magnetized.

    He was tall, and he wore an expensive-looking coat. His eyes were a deep, crystal blue, wrinkled lightly at the corners as if someone had just told him a joke. They held Adam's gaze with a curiosity that verged on recognition. His mouth was quizzical, on a knife's edge of smiling. Adam felt suddenly as if all the breath had been knocked out of him.
    ---
    Adam Faulkner-Stanheight knew his own worth- that is to say, little-to-none. His girlfriend? Frustrated with him for wasting his life. His job? A complete dead end, working retail in December. His photography? Just a hobby, and one he was afraid to really pursue for fear of failing.

    And then Dr. Lawrence Gordon walked into his life, sending his world into a tailspin with his understanding smile, soft voice, incisive words, and the kindest eyes Adam had ever seen.

    What Adam thought would be one more mindnumbing holiday shift brought a chance encounter that would change his life- for better or for worse.

    [A Price of Salt/Carol AU of Saw, with 99% less blood and guts. Now completed.]

    Summary

    "Adam?"

    "That's me," he responds, dully.

    The doctor says nothing back, which piques Adam's interest. He opens one eye to take a quick glance at the man, only to have the wind metaphorically knocked out of his small body. He shoots upright, the singular earbud falling out in the process.

    "Holy shit..." gasps Adam.

    Lawrence Gordon—blonde hair slicked back and white overcoat shimmering against a black button-up, pressed dress pants, and leather loafers—is staring at Adam with utter amazement in his icicle eyes.

    Or, Adam thought he'd never have to see Lawrence again, but a cancer scare is placing him right back in the doctor's nimble hands.
