“Un-undyne?”
It was just one word, stammered and hard to be heard through the sound of the waterfall splashing onto her. Yet that one word sent a jolt through Undyne's body as if lightning had struck her. Her eyes sprung open and fixated themselves onto the drake in the pool.
"Alphys?"
Her face showed surprise, a little shock, but beneath the surface a flood of emotions rushed through her, and it was as powerful as Alphys's had been a few minutes ago. The boundless love for her, the indescribable happiness at the sight of her being here, the relief to see that she was alive and well - and the anger at herself for not having found out sooner, no, for almost having forgotten about Alphys over the last day or so. That last bit was singlehandedly brushed aside by the other emotions though.
She stood up and leapt forward, giving Alphys only time for a scared yelp before she was upon her and wrapped her arms around her for a hug tighter even than the one that she'd given to Sans. The force of her jump made the poor drake lose her balance and they fell backwards into the shallow water. For a moment they were both submerged, then Undyne lifted Alphys up without loosening her hug in the slightest so that she was almost entirely out of the water and able to breathe again.
"Alphys..." she almost whispered, pressing her head into the area between her shoulder and neck. There was no mistaking it, the feeling beneath her hands, the scent, the voice... it was her beloved.
"Undyne..." Alphys replied, but wriggled. "T-too... hard..."
"Mmmh? Oh! Sorry." She loosened the hug a bit and Alphys gasped in her arms, struggling to breathe after having been squeezed like that. And that wasn't even her best, not with those injuries! She lowered herself to her knees and let Alphys down so that she could stand in the shallow water and pulled back a bit, then locked lips with her. They'd had smooches here and there before, but never a real proper kiss like this one, and Undyne saw no better time to change that than now. Not that she was especially good at it, and Alphys wasn't either - but who cared about that now? Not her, that's for sure. Ignoring Alphys's tomato-red face and her flailing arms she kept the kiss up for several more seconds, then with an audible *MWAH* pulled away and squeezed her again.
"I've missed you so much", she said. "I had no idea that you... that you were here..."
"Y-yeah, I... I only heard of y-your arrival... recently..." Alphys muttered as she sunk her face into Undyne's neck and hair as the fish was doing with her too. "I'm so happy t-that I found you..."
For a little while they just stood there, exchanging more than words could ever say through their hug. Their relationship had begun as a good friendship and evolved into love after many years, only for them to be separated shortly after. This separation had made their love for each other grow much greater and now it all came together at once. Like an oil-soaked set of logs ignited by a spark bursting into a big flame - well, Alphys may have compared it to some two chemicals coming together instead.
"How'd you know I was here?" Undyne eventually asked, breaking the silence. At the same time she cursed herself for ending a moment that she would have liked to last forever, and eagerly awaited Alphys's response. She had so much to tell her!
"It's a... uhm, long story", Alphys mumbled, still blushed dark red.
"Well, I'm not going anywhere... for a while", Undyne replied, taking a break to hold back a pained grunt when Alphys accidentally touched one of the injuries that hadn't yet healed. "And I'm going nowhere without you either now that we are back together." First she rushed to the edge of the water to grab her eyepatch and cover up her blind eye. Then she pulled Alphys along to the deeper part of the pool and sat her by the edge whilst she herself stayed in the water. Doctor's orders and all that, plus she was hurried to finish the treatment to go outside with Alphys. "I've so much to share with you, Alphys. But you go first. I want to hear everything... please."
