Summary: Love, hate, lather, rinse, repeat. Keller's thoughts on the 2nd floor landing at the end of season 6



From the moment I met you, I knew it would come to this. I knew that I could play you like a tune, subject to my whims and changing moods. I could make you love me or hate me, but never ever be indifferent to me. I knew that you'd come around to believing anything I had to say as long as it was for us, as long as it meant that I loved you. I'd heard the words, “I can't trust you” fall from your lips more than once, and yet, you could never let me go.

I need you to let me go, Toby. I need you to stop this endless song, this refrain that echoes in my mind. Hate me, love me. Free me from this cycle. I created you to be the instrument of my destruction. It's time to fulfill our destiny.
