It's like a sweet(or cute) expression between a couple when you don't want him to hurt himself by asking a promise. I think it's not quite right in grammar. But, if you would like to use this expression, I think it can be used for your boyfriend or very close friends in spoken style.

In fact, it is a children's language. I remember my generation used that expression a lot when we were very young, though I don't have a clue if kids these days still say that way. The reason why it sounds sweet or cute is that they mimic young kids.
