For Ariel in 'The Little Mermaid', in the original Hans Christian Andersen story, it has a darker tone. Ariel doesn't get a happily - ever - after in the same way as the Disney movie.

Belle, a smart girl, falls in love with a cursed beast and breaks the spell.

Well, for example, in the original 'Snow White' story, the real ending has Snow White waking up after the prince's kiss and they get married and live happily ever after in his kingdom.
