 * -Bella Swan on Mike.

Michael Newton is the one of the students who attends Bella Swan's high school, Forks High School.

Twilight
Mike first meets Bella on her first day of school in Twilight, and takes an immediate romantic liking towards her. He continues to seek her affections even after Bella and Edward Cullen are together. At Bella's urging, Mike goes out with Jessica Stanley, a fellow student, but their relationship does not last. Mike is also the subject of Edward's jealousy when Edward worries that Bella likes him. Edward and Mike are always at odds because they both seek Bella's attention.

New Moon
In New Moon, Bella tries to rekindle their friendship after four months of 'being a zombie' after the Cullens leave Forks. Mike becomes her friend again, although not with the same enthusiasm and also never forgets his fondness of Bella. In New Moon, after a movie outing with Bella, Jacob and Mike, Mike seems to have given up on Bella, and tells her that "girls are cruel". However, Mike is one of those who willingly accepts Bella back after her depression.

Eclipse and Breaking Dawn
Mike plays only a minor role in Eclipse, and Breaking Dawn, as someone Bella sees at school or work, and as a guest at Bella and Edward's wedding.

Bella Swan
Mike was infatuated with Bella ever since she started going to Fork High School. He seems to only like Bella because of her popularity and good looks. Bella does not reciprocate his feelings, and they eventually subside. Mike asked Bella to the spring dance, but she turned him down just like every other person who asked her.

Jessica Stanley
Mike only went out with Jessica at Bella's urging, because Bella knew that Jessica had a crush on Mike. Their relationship did not last very long, and they broke up that same summer. However, Bella noted that at her wedding, Mike and Jessica were holding hands. She was surprised and pleased to discover they were back together.

Appearance and Personality
Mike is described as having pale blue eyes, blond hair, a baby face, and being altogether good looking. Mike is very popular in Forks High School, and showed persistence in trying to capture Bella's affections.
