lore , cont'd
ezrra goes with the byers when they leave for california. he's reluctant to leave the town he's known for so long , but he understands the reasoning. as much as he doesn't want to leave — he's even more unwilling to leave his family.
having to get used to a whole new place is hard — especially for someone who always felt like he didn't belong to begin with. hawkins wasn't perfect , but he had gained friends there .. there was nothing in this new place. he was back to being a loner ( alone ). a feeling he couldn't express to his family — not when they had left for their safety.
at this news they were going back , ezrra sat in silent excitement at returning. a feeling that was quickly washed away when they came back only to find out that eddie , one of their only friends , was now dead. the same guy who has relentlessly chased him until he agreed to join his band .. the guy who ezrra had childishly thought to be invincible. they had known each other for years , years when they were younger — when life was easier. ezrra had been freshly fifteen when he had left — they had promised to meet again. now , knowing that wasn't an option , he just felt .. lost.
