Ah, man. I'm gonna give this a shot, since I desperately want to re-read a Supernatual fic.....
Sam is dying, and makes a death-wish with a djinn. He and Dean are 'reborn' - apart. But Dean at age four starts asking about 'Sam', has nightmares and cries over missing 'Sam', etc. Sam, meanwhile, is in the foster system, changes his name to 'lose' himself and hopes Dean never finds him.
But he does, and Dean's parents, in particular (Dean is an adult now) are surprised and a little weirded out that Dean has found the 'Sam' he talked bout all his life and is apparently very happy with him (it's a Wincest fic even though they're not actually blood or even half/step/foster siblings in this fic).
