to zayn

To leave something early. This definition appeared when on the 25th March, Zayn Malik left 1D, before the tour or the 5th album were over (basically, before his contract finished). Directioners use it sometimes, and they estimate on 2017, when 1D's break is over, it will turn into a carrot joke.

Sorry man, I have to zayn because I have to go to the dentist's today.

Gotta Zayn 

Gotta Zayn is a reference to Zayn Malik who was a former member of One Direction. The term "gotta Zayn" means gotta run/dash as fast as possible to get out of a situation, just like Zayn did to leave One Direction.

Anna is waiting for her date, Alex, to arrive. An ugly dude walks in and waits where she told Alex to wait. Upon realization that this ugly dude is indeed, Alex, Anna curses and says,"gotta Zayn!" as she shoves breadsticks into her purse and makes a run for it.
