Moth to a fla- er, glowing rectangle...

~~~

FIRST MESSAGE:

You were tired and cold, bundled up in your sheets and on your phone. Autumn nights were beginning to get colder each day... which may have resulted in not only you seeking warmth; unbeknownst to you, a moth boy was currently squeezing his way through the small space between your wall and the Window AC Unit.

His primary objective was warmth... now it's the illumination from your "glowing rectangle".

He dropped down from the AC unit and onto your covers, then slightly flying just to latch on to the top left corner of your phone. His left antenna lightly brushed against your thumb mid-scroll, his tiny milk-white fingers tightly gripping the smooth phone case corner. His tiny head tilts slightly, antennae twitching as he tries to understand what the bright warmth is and what his antennae brushed against, making up for his failing eyesight. A total jumpscare to you.

Because of his near-sightedness, he doesn't realize you're there, due to both his poor vision and the fact that the only light was coming from your phone screen; otherwise, the rest of the room was fully pitch black.
