Why this must be read:
Sam goes missing and Dean tries desperately to find him, but he keeps finding this strange girl instead. Or maybe she keeps finding him. He's not quite sure. There's something familiar about her, but he can't quite put his finger on it, and she seems alternately tense and amused by the situation.
I think we all know where this is going long before Dean figures it out, but it is part of a spell, and the girl is hot, so I don't think we can blame him too much.
This is a really interesting take on genderswap, and how it ties in with identity, and how Dean knows but he doesn't know he knows, and Sam can't tell him. Because usually in these sorts of stories, they both know what's going on, but this one does a really good job of highlighting Dean's feelings of attraction when he doesn't consciously know who he's dealing with. And also, Dean/girl!Sam never fails to be hot like burning.
I like this story a lot - I've read it more times than I can count, and I always enjoy it - and if this is the sort of thing you like, then you probably will, too. If you do, please don't forget to tell the author.

"Listen," Dean began, rubbing at the back of his head. "I don't know why you're following me. And I don't care. If you get in my way then I can deal with you, but if you're cruising for some kind of hook up, or even just a ride, you're looking in the wrong place."
Dean almost appreciated the irony of the situation. He was turning away a pretty chick, one who definitely wasn't wearing a bra. But all he could even begin to think about was Sam. Sam who was gone. Sam who might be dead. Sam who got visions and nightmares, who needed protecting.
The girl stared at Dean for a long time, long enough for the keys in his hand to get sweaty and for the flush of anger in him to subside.
"I," she paused, then stood, slowly unfolding her long legs. For the first time, Dean really appreciated the view. "You look like you need a drink," she said eventually. "I'm going to go to the bar and get one now. Join me, if you want."
It didn't sound like she was coming on to him, and that was probably what made Dean follow her.
