This is about how a seemingly happy marriage can go wrong with the wrong ingredients. Over competitive people, angry people, jealousy and lack of security and trust.

Shona and Andrew thought they were just a normal run of the mill couple, met at university, started dating, fell in love and got married. This was not one of those cases where they saw the other person and decided within 5 seconds of meeting that they were soulmates, rather as they got to know each other, they found they were falling in love with each other.
Shona, at the start of this tale, was a 26 year old Arts graduate, from Glasburgh and Andrew was a 27 year old graduate in Business Management at the same university. Andrew had finished his course a year before Shona and quickly got a job as a financial analyst at Strathmore International Bank in Glasburgh. This was a highly competitive job, which Andrew loved. Shona was more artistic than Andrew and got a job working with disadvantaged children, using Art and drama to build their self-confidence. When Shona graduated, she and Andrew got married and settled down to life together. They have now been married for 4 years.
Andrew had one weakness, he did get jealous around Shona, and this was because she was beautiful. At work, he loved the challenge of competing with other analysts, but unlike most of them, he was married. Sometimes, when his colleagues would brag about their sexual conquests at the weekend, he would be envious of them, although he would never actually cheat on Shona, because he loved her so much.
Andrew had one major rival at work called Jordan. Jordan had been hired at the same time as Andrew and they were both successful at making money for the bank and themselves. Jordan was more clubbable than Andrew and because he didn't have a wife was out most weekends partying and spending his bonuses. Andrew didn't like him personally since he thought that he would try and get into any woman's knickers. As they competed at work, sometimes, he brought his dislike for Jordan home with him and complained to Shona about him.
Jordan, on the other hand, enjoyed winding up Andrew and loved competing against him. He had met Shona several time over a couple of years and would love the chance to fuck her, but he thought that that was unlikely. His tales of weekend successes were true as Jordan was very successful with the women, unmarried or not.
Then, Shona and Andrew's marriage changed, although they didn't realise at the time. Andrew played football for his local team and in August there was club trip to Germany. Andrew booked the time off and went away for his boys' holiday. Shona was not concerned because Andrew had done this last year. She just stayed at home and went for a girls' holiday in November to warmer weather.
On the Friday, while Andrew was away, Shona went out with some friends, Katie and Amy, for a meal and some dancing. They arrived at The Libertine about 10pm and were having a great time, although Shona was drinking a little too much. Paul, Robert and Jamal saw the three woman and thought that it was their lucky night. They went up and asked them for a dance. The girls, feeling safe in numbers, agreed and quickly got up to dance.
Robert spent a couple of dances with Shona, and started getting touchy-feely with her, just letting his hands stray across her body, to see her reaction. Shona very quickly shut him down, saying that she was married. Amy, who was not married was getting very close to Jamal, and this did shock Shona, as she had never imagined Amy going off with someone who wasn't white. Katie, who was engaged, was dancing with Paul, but he was also put in his place when he tried to get too intimate.
Robert and Paul were not happy with the way the night was going and thought that alcohol could help move things along, so suggesting that they have a drink and a chat. Shona and Katie, comfortable with each other for protection, said yes and sat down. Amy and Jamal were kissing and touching like young love birds together. Robert and Paul went to the bar to get the drinks and discuss how to get into the girls knickers.
When Robert was at the bar he knocked someone and just said "Get out the way", while saying to Paul, "I would love to fuck Shona, she looks so hot, and married." Paul replied "I'm looking forward to seeing Katie's engagement ring on my cock." Then "When are our wives due back?" Robert said "Tomorrow, they are all back with the kids, so one more night of fun."
Robert had knocked into Jordan. Jordan had not realised that Shona was in the club, but just looked over to where Robert had come from and recognised her straight away. He had met Shona at a couple of work meals and parties with Andrew. He thought "I wouldn't mind getting in her knickers either."
Jordan turned around to look at Robert and noticed that he seemed to putting something into a couple of the drinks. Jordan loved fucking women but always made sure that the women wanted to be fucked and fucked by him, so he could never contemplate drugging a woman for sex. Jordan thought that Robert was just scum for trying that and decided to keep an eye on things. He had thought about going to the bouncers but then say Paul come from shaking hands with a bouncer and join Robert to carry the drinks back to the table.
Shona and Katie were talking about Robert and Paul and thought that they might need to get Amy to leave Jamal, if they didn't slow down and listen to them. Amy and Jamal went up to dance again and were quickly all over each other.
Robert and Paul came back with the drinks and started asking them more about themselves. The girls felt safer because they weren't dancing and now keeping a safe distance. Robert suggested that they went up to dance again and so the group got up and were soon dancing. Amy came up behind girls and whispered, "I'm off with Jamal, he rings my bell."
Jordan was still watching this but realised that he could do nothing for Amy since she was just playing the field with a married man.
Robert and Paul started getting closer to Shona and Katie and they now were more hesitant pushing them off. This made Robert and Paul realise that they were being successful. Jordan noticed this and was getting concerned. He decided to act.
Jordan ordered a pint of cider and walked up to where Shona and Katie were and walked into them and spilt his pint over Shona. Jordan acted surprised and then said "Shona, I'm so sorry, I didn't notice you, and I should have done. Is Andrew around?" although Jordan knew he was away on holiday. The spilt drink sobered Shona up and recognising Jordan from Andrew's work said "you dickhead, you have ruined my dress." Jordan said "I will pay for any damage." Shona was furious but also realised that Robert and Paul had again started to over step the mark.
Robert and Paul tried to steer Shona and Katie away from Jordan, but he was switched on to this and said "You two" Shona and Katie "should get home, perhaps you can save some of the dress, I will organise a taxi for you, since it is my fault."
Robert and Paul said "It is okay, we will take the ladies home."
