Shorten

Jack told Mary in phone:"The usual place, wait till we meet, don't leave without meeting me."

Could you shorten "wait till we meet, don't leave without meeting me" according to what the lovers used to say in the US, UK or other English speaking countries?

How about "Be there or be sqare"?

'Be there or be square' really means 'if you don't go, you'll be missing out on a good time'. Probably not used between lovers; more between friends.

'It's Jack's party tonight. Be there or be square...'

As well as Nona's suggestion, you could say 'don't leave without me'.
