I'll be frank, it is statutory rape. This is very serious. It will be up to the girl and her parents as to whether there are criminal actions taken against you. You need to consult a criminal lawyer immediately! I do not practice criminal law. Good luck.

Get some counseling at a local resource center. How pregnant is she. If it is early, have you considered an abortion? If not early, and no one wants to prosecute, you probably will be okay. Bill Stern
