Marriage is beautiful. Marriage is with someone you love. There is ups downs in marriage. And for Mathias Clark, it's all that. Mathias is married to Henry Standing Bear. Mathias is Cheyenne Tribal Police Chief. He looks over the Res. This was his home all his life.
Henry is owner of The Red Pony bar. Henry was behind the bar when Mathias walks in. Henry watched as his husband walked over with a small smile. Seeing Mathias happy makes Henry's night.
"I see you are in a good mood." Henry said.
"Well I am but I want to tell you in private." Mathias said.
Mathias takes Henry to the office and shuts the door.
"Champagne?" Henry said.
"I can't drink alcohol." Mathias said.
"Why is that?" Henry said.
Mathias shows Henry the picture of his sonogram. Mathias is pregnant. Henry slams his lips on Mathias's they held each other.
"We have a baby coming." Mathias said.
"I am happy to become a father." Henry said.
The walkie talkie goes off. It's Deputy Fox.
"What is it Fox?" Mathias said.
"Someone called for a break in at Ms. Littlefoot's home. We are in need of your help." Fox said.
"I'll be there!" Mathias said.
Mathias looks at Henry.
"You take the case." Henry said. "Be careful. We don't want any incidents."
Henry places a hand on Mathias's stomach as he told him that. Mathias kisses him one more time, and left. Mathias drove to Ms. Littlefoot's house and came upt to Fox. They walked in and looked around. Mathias had his gun ready. Mathias walked around the corner and is suddenly thrown into a table. He was then beaten up in the face, and kicked in the ribs. He was not moving. Before Mathias completely loses consciousness, he hears a gun go off. Then everything went black...
Meanwhile, Henry was closing up the bar when Deputy Fox ran over.
"Mathias is in the hospital." Fox said. "He was attacked badly."
"Take me to him." Henry said.
Deputy Fox rushed Henry to the hospital and they ran in.
"I am here for Mathias Clark." Henry said. "I am his husband."
"Room 304." The nurse said.
"Thank you Ms. Joyce." Henry said.
"You're welcome!" The nurse said.
Henry was also warned the Mathias is on life support. He can't breathe on his own. And he's in a medically induced coma. He walked in and is in shock. Mathias looks lifeless. A ob/gyn is giving him an ultrasound.
"I'm Dr. Jones." Dr. Jones said. "I'm here checking on the baby."
"How is the baby?" Henry said.
"Very strong." Dr. Jones said. "Surprisingly there were no internal bleeding near the womb. There were no injuries to the womb."
"Ok the baby is safe." Henry said, feeling relieved.
"Mathias protected your unborn child." Dr. Jones said. "He will be an amazing father as you are and amazing husband."
"Thank you." Henry said.
"I'll let you alone." Dr. Jones said.
"I'm Henry Standing Bear." Henry said.
The Doctor nodded with a smile and left. Henry sat down next to Mathias and took his husband's hand.
"I do believe you can hear me." Henry said. "The baby is fine. You protected our baby inside you. Come back Mathias. Whoever did this to you, we'll find you."
Turns out the attacker escaped before Deputy Fox shot him. Deputy Fox missed the man. Henry fell asleep by Mathias's bed side.
