I'm not sure what they'd prosecute you for, exactly. Even if you did have sex with the girl, you're both minors and she's over 14. Just do yourself a favor and don't talk to this girl anymore, and don't talk to anyone about this girl. You also shouldn't go around posting your name to questions about the situation on the Internet. Don't tweet, Facebook, etc., about it. It will only fuel the fire, and you'll end up on the receiving end of some false allegations.

If you find yourself in a situation where you might end up the subject of a police investigation or other legal action DON'T TALK ABOUT IT! Not to your best friend, even. Definitely NOT the police. You talk to one person, and that's your lawyer. If the police want to talk to you, your response is "NOT without my lawyer." People always think they can talk their way out of things. The only thing they do is talk themselves into trouble.

As for life advice, do yourself a favor and don't waste time dating people whose parents hate you. It isn't worth the trouble they will go out of their way to cause you.
