Kurt goes throughout high school sort of confused because the bullies always try and tell him he's a submissive, but he doesn't really feel like one, but he doesn't totally feel like a dominant either, so he just waits for his mark to tell him what he is, but it never comes.

Eventually he graduates and makes it to Nyada and by that time he's labeled himself as a dominant, mostly to spite the bullies and for a while he feels really good in that role, it seems to work well for him... until he meets Elliot. Big, tall, strong, /dominant/ Elliot and all he wants to do is drop to his knees and call him Master and he doesn't understand, because being a dominant has worked so well for him but now all he wants to do is submit and he's back to square one and being incredibly confused as to what the hell he is.

Him and Elliot start dating and he loves submitting to him and he grows comfortable in the idea of being a submissive and things go back to feeling pretty normal again, just now he's in a different role. 

The next big hiccup comes when Elliot tells him that before they got together he had signed up to be a safe house for abused submissives. He'd wanted someone to care for but hadn't been having any luck on the dating front and he'd heard about a company that specialized in putting subs that had been abused by their parents or their previous masters in homes with dominants that had been trained to help them get back on their feet. Kurt's a little upset to find out that at basically any moment another submissive could be moved into /his/ boyfriend's house but Elliot tells him he's been on the list of potential dominants for months and heard nothing, so it's unlikely to actually happen.

Until, or course, it does, and Elliot is charged with the care of a submissive a couple of years younger than Kurt. They have a big fight about it but Elliot refuses to tell the company he can't take the sub and he tells Kurt that if he refuses to cooperate and be nice to the poor boy when he arrives, then he won't be allowed around Elliot's place anymore.

They leave the fight mostly unresolved with neither one exactly sure where they stand. Elliot gets swept up in caring for the submissive and he doesn't really have a chance to try and make things up with Kurt. Kurt, however, has too much time on his hands without Elliot and fights with himself over what to do. He remains stubborn and waiting for Elliot to make the first move for a couple of weeks before he caves and goes to his apartment with some flowers. 

They make up and Kurt promises to be play nicely with the submissive and Elliot invites him in and introduces him to Blaine, the teenage sub he's taking care of. Blaine is quiet and timid and the dominant urges that he's only had weak flutterings of before come back full force and Kurt is desperate to mold this broken boy and teach him and love him and take care of him. 

Kurt fights with these feelings for a while, desperately trying to balance his urge to submit to Elliot and dominate Blaine and he's worried about how Elliot will react to learning that his sub has a dominant streak. Something happens one night while he's alone with Blaine, a nightmare or something, that intensifies Kurt's need to take care of him and he can't even really stop himself from going with his instincts.
