Ianto cradled the handset between his shoulder and his ear.

'Expiry?'

'Eleven, sixteen.'

'And the CVC?'

'Three, five, three.'

'One moment.' The voice paused. 'Sorry, but payment's been rejected.'

Ianto flipped the card over and re-read the numbers out.

'Sorry, Sir, it says the card is overdrawn.'

He thanked her for her time and quickly pulled up the online statement. Their Torchwood credit card had a forty thousand pound limit.  How could they be overdrawn?

Ianto confronted Jack.

'I'm guessing our twenty five thousand pound trip to the Amalfi coast was meant to be a surprise?'

'Anniversary,' Jack replied sheepishly.

Oh dear, Jack's in the doghouse for trying to be romantic for their anniversary. His heart was in the right place!
