don't move
Hold your position
Don't move is a command to stay completely still, often urgent.
It appears in moments of danger—Don't move, there's a snake by your foot—or when someone needs you to hold position: Don't move, I'm almost done with your portrait.
The phrase can also be a casual request to wait: Don't move, I'll be right back.
