comment
A character, often (but not always) a sickly child, knows she is about to die and asks another, usually an adult, to stay with them until the time comes. Very commonly, this invitation is reserved for someone special to her. As mentioned already, it is not just about dying children, but children make it more heart-wrenching since it's plain wrong for them to die before the adults around them.
Sub-Trope of Please, Don't Leave Me and Comfort the Dying. Defiance of Dying Alone. Related to You Are Not Alone. Pretty much guaranteed to be a Tear Jerker. An excellent way to give The Stoic a Pet the Dog moment, since it doesn't require them to actually show any emotion - just being there at all demonstrates kindness. Often paired with Died in Your Arms Tonight. See also Mayfly–December Romance. Compare Dying Truce.
A cruel subversion may occur if the person being asked to stay becomes Distracted from Death. Sometimes, this is why you Don't Fear the Reaper, Death him/her/itself gives you company.
Death Trope. Expect spoilers.

A non-fatal example; In the final days of the "Metal Virus" arc of Sonic the Hedgehog (IDW), Cream and Gemerl fight Zeena for her Chaos Emerald while she is in control of a horde of Zombots. Though they successfully take the emerald, Cream catches the infection and realizes she can't go back to their friends without risking their lives. She then gives the emerald to Gemerl and asks him to leave her behind, saying she'll just cover her eyes and pretend it's just a scary movie. Without any hesitation, Gemerl throws the emerald into a portal to their friends and carries Cream away from the Zombot hordes, promising to stay with her until she's well again.

Kingdom Hearts II: After Axel's suicide attack, Sora stays by him as he's fading away. Axel doesn't ask him to; he just does. Sora's like that.
Kingdom Hearts 3D [Dream Drop Distance] also has a negative example of this trope, as Young Xehanort stays with Sora and gives out his New Era Speech as the latter dies from a broken heart. Allowing Sora to die alone would be much kinder.

In Tales of Monkey Island Chapter 4: The Trial and Execution of Guybrush Threepwood, after Guybrush is stabbed in the chest by LeChuck's Cutlass of Kaflu, Elaine becomes distressed and runs to Guybrush's side, cradles him and stays with him until he breathes his last, even going so far as to reject LeChuck's advances and watch him regain his voodoo powers from La Esponja Grande and become the demon pirate once again. (Funny thing is that Guybrush never asks her to stay with him until the end, though she tries reviving him and he barely regains consciousness as he mumbles "Is that you, mother? I washed my hands..." and later asks her in his final words to destroy LeChuck for him, a vow she tearfully accepts.)

Angel:
In the season 2 premiere, Angel revisits a hotel whose guests he left to a demon that feeds on fear 50 years earlier. After defeating the demon, he finds that the demon kept one single victim alive this whole time, who's now an ancient woman. Cue this trope.
In the last episode, Wesley is mortally wounded by Cyvus Vail. Illyria asks him if he would like her to lie to him now. Hours ago Wesley refused to ask Illyria to spend the day with him as Fred, claiming it would be a lie. This time he gratefully accepts her offer. "Fred" holds Wesley's hand, reassuring him that they will be together soon. Wesley dies peacefully in the arms of the girl he loved.

Kevin & Kell inverts the trope: After Spork Johnson gets a job with his dung beetle co-workers at the Alaska branch of Dewclaw's Fine Meats, they need to stay in a motel for the winter during their seasonal shutdown. It's here the dung beetles remind Spork that they won't survive the winter due to their short life spans. They tell him they will leave him with dozens of eggs so he will have co-workers for his project, which is to harvest the waste of DFW's prey to keep other predators at bay and corner the market. They promise to keep Spork company until they die.

Somewhat displayed in Kakashi's death in Naruto. At first, it appears that he dies alone, but he gets an internal dying dream sequence where his dead friends, teacher, and father all greet him. Although it's clear he dies, it's unclear at what point he actually dies - is it right away? Is it gradual? Is it when he sees his father? Further subverted in that the death doesn't stick.

Borderlands 3 has a rather unexpected case of this during the "Moxxi's Heist of the Handsome Jackpot" DLC: one sidequest sees you helping out a defective and benign Loader named Joy who asks you for help fulfilling an unusual request: having a picnic with a friend. Once you successfully gather the supplies and set things down at the picnic site, Joy rewards you with cash before asking you to sit down with them and dropping a bombshell: his power core has been dwindling all this time and he knew all along he wouldn't have much time, so he wanted to cross off his bucket list before expiring. After cheerfully thanking the player and commenting "I had a nice day...", his power core finally gives out, with his body collapsing in front of the player.

Hamlet doesn't ask, but Horatio stays with him until he dies, bidding him farewell with the famous line "Goodnight, sweet prince, and flights of angels sing thee to thy rest." Many directors have Horatio cradle Hamlet's head in his lap, or something similar.

Return of the Obra Dinn: When First Mate William Hoscut sees Thomas Lanke, who had been fatally knifed In the Back, Lanke begs him not to leave him, and Hoscut keeps his promise. Lanke then tells him to tell Peter Milroy's mom that he tried his best to save Milroy from getting killed. Hoscut, in a panic, calls out for Henry Brennan to bring in the surgeon's kit, but by then it's too late, as Lanke dies by Hoscut's side. So heartbreaking.

Star Trek: Deep Space Nine:
Cruelly subverted when Kira Nerys' father Kira Taban was shot by the Cardassians. Although she was by his side for most of it, she left with the rest of her resistance cell to the kill those responsible despite him begging her to stay. Her father died alone, calling out her name, and she only missed it by a matter of hours. It haunted her for the rest of her life.
In "Ties of Blood and Water", Kira reunited has a Cardassian who became a surrogate father-figure, as he is nearing death. After learning of something he did during the Occupation she storms off, only to be convinced to return as "he doesn't deserve to die alone." She returns and stays with him until he dies, and then buries him next to her father.

In Fate/Parallel Fantasia, False Rider, San from Princess Mononoke, lacks a Master to supply her with energy and is dying as a result. She uses her Noble Phantasm to summon her mount, Moro, even though it uses up more of her energy because she would like some companionship, especially from her adoptive mother. Before they both disappear, they run into Illya and True Berserker and Illya chats with them until the end.

Averted in Vandread. On one planet, the main cast is helping out the sickly people. Bart befriends Shirley and tells her about adventures they've been through. She begins to make a small doll of Bart as a memento to remember her by when the alien Harvesters attack. He promises to protect her from it, and Shirley asks that he return to her afterwards. While Bart is up there, having a spectacular Big Damn Heroes moment for her entire planet, poor Shirley succumbs to her disease. As for the doll, she never finishes sewing the hair onto it, so Bart shaves off his hair completely to match it instead.

The last shot of the series finale of Lost is a bird's eye view of a mortally wounded Jack Shephard stumbling along and eventually falling over on his back. As he lies there dying, Vincent the Labrador walks up and lies down beside him so he doesn't have to die alone.

In the two-part NCIS episode "Engaged", Gibbs and Zivz travel to the Middle East to rescue a captive Marine. While there, Ziva bonds with the Marine's commanding officer Captain Quincy. He is shot in the neck during the rescue, and despite being surrounded by both his squad and the Corpsman, he asks Ziva to stay with him. She does.

The Bible: When Jesus was being crucified, most of his followers had fled, but His mother, John and a couple of other women stood by the cross until He died.
This is more of a subversion, as at the Last Supper Jesus actually predicted that his followers would betray him. The episode in Gethsemane, where Jesus asks his disciples to stay with him while he wrestles with his impending death and they all instead fall asleep comes very close to this trope, though.

Batwoman (2019). In "Take Your Choice", Kate Kane is given a choice of saving Alice—her evil twin sister, or Beth—an entirely decent twin sister from an alternate universe where she never suffered the events that drove Alice insane. When Kate turns up to see Alice she thinks Kate has chosen her to live, but Kate reveals that she's already saved Beth and has just come to give her sister what comfort she can as she's dying. Unfortunately holding her sister as she's dying only puts Kate in striking range when Alice makes an unexpected recovery.

A rather haunting example occurs in The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask if you save Romani Ranch and speak to Romani and Cremia on the last day. Cremia, apparently realising that even the ranch is not safe from the impending apocalypse, asks Romani to sleep with her in her bed tonight, knowing that neither of them will be alive by the next day...

On Doctor Who, Rose got the Doctor to take her back to the day her father died (hit by a car) because in the original history he died alone which was a regret of her mother's. Rose held his hand as he died. (She did try to save him at first, but doing that broke reality because they'd been to that time before and interfering with your own interfering is bad.)

Fortunately, Smurfette survives into the next day, which is when a Magic Kiss restores her to her full youth and beauty.

In Hunter × Hunter, the Chimera Ant King Meruem is fatally poisoned by Netero's suicidal Rose Bomb attack. He faces his death with dignity and seeks out Komugi so he can play a few more games of gungi with her. He warns her that the poison inside him is contagious and that she will die if she stays near him. She refuses to abandon him since knowing him allowed her to feel true happiness. After a few games (in which she remains undefeated), Meruem finally succumbs to the poison and asks Komugi to stay with him until the end. Komugi holds his hand as she too succumbs to the poison.

Criminal Minds:
The killer from "Pleasure Is My Business" asks for Hotch to do this. He does. "You're the first man who didn't let me down."
He also does this for Erin Strauss in "The Replicator".
Gideon did it more than once also, of his own accord, memorably for one of the unsubs in "Open Season".
Garcia does this for a victim in "Exit Wounds". When Morgan asks her why (as she'd run directly towards the killer), she told him that when she was shot, the only thing she was thinking was that the last thing she was going to see was her shooter's face and she couldn't let the victim die like that.
The whole team gets in on this. There's a woman trapped in her car, which she thinks is going to explode. While they're frantically trying to defuse the bomb, Morgan insists on staying with her at her request. The others are, understandably, distraught at this choice. Later, Prentiss tries to defy this trope, but he insists on staying with her while she's "dying".
When Rossi's first ex-wife reconnects with him, she reveals it's because she has ALS and wants him to help her end her life before she deteriorates. When he comes back and tells her he can't, she tells him she already knew that. What she really wanted was for him to be with her as she died, since she'd already taken the pills to commit suicide herself.

Izzy tries to get Tom to do this in The Fountain. Considering the fact that the message of the movie is that death should be accepted gracefully rather than fought desperately, it can be argued that this trope is a central motif to the film. In his head at least, Tom does get to do this for her at the end of his story.
One of the tracks for the film is "Stay With Me" by Clint Mansell.

Star Trek: Voyager:
In "Innocence", Tuvok agrees to stay with a little girl who is really an old woman from a species who age backwards so that she won't be afraid.
In "Real Life", the holographic Doctor creates a family for himself on the holodeck. Unfortunately his daughter 'dies' in the program; the Doctor wants to shut it down rather than experience the emotion of loss, but is persuaded he has to see it through, being told by his daughter, "If you stay with me, I won't be scared".

Kingdom Hearts 3D [Dream Drop Distance] also has a negative example of this trope, as Young Xehanort stays with Sora and gives out his New Era Speech as the latter dies from a broken heart. Allowing Sora to die alone would be much kinder.

In Kyon: Big Damn Hero, Yuki invoked this trope by calling Kyon after she learns the IDSE scheduled her deletion. She didn't die though, because she never considered Kyon would react by using his Trust Password on Haruhi.

In Fragile Thread, we have this with Mako, when she summons Ryuko to be by her side as she commits suicide, however, she did tell her she was free to go if that was too much.
