You should discuss the matter with both of your parents, as the decision lies with them to make the determination of what is in your best interests. If they cannot agree, they will need to go to court to have a judge decide. While you are old enough to tell the court your wishes, the court still has to make the decision that is in your best interests.
I would suggest you also talk to perhaps your school counselor about this matter too, who can help you talk through this matter.
