Maybe when your parents find out and go crazy you will quit. Its not worth cancer to look cool.
This annoys me. Looking cool is not the only reason people smoke. Nicotine has a very relaxing effect that helps calm and relieve stress. OP even said he had to sneak out and go hide somewhere to smoke, and it'd be pretty pointless to try 'look cool' where nobody can see you...
I don't smoke and I think it's nasty, but that's my personal preference. Everyone needs to stop being so judgmental and screaming about cancer every time smoking is brought up. Cancer results from smoking heavily for decades, and OP is just a teenager with a long life ahead of him still.
From joy to sorrow, yesterday to tomorrow, you've been there. Friends like you are rare, your touch is so gentle,
You're my guardian angel.
Like a blossoming flower spreading your wings in grace, filling my heart with power
by feeling your embrace.
Wherever the wind may blow, we will overcome this war, in times happy or sore, I will never let you go.
With a gentle warm heart and a will of stone, We'll never be apart, You'll never be alone. - John <3

If you have the opinion that smoking gives cancer after many decades then you can just put it off for years thinking your fine. Also how do you think he started smoking? My guess would be with friends, hence the looking cool statement. To me the risk of being killed from something is over the calming and stress relieving effect of it.
Its been awhile... begs the question of; Kyle did your parents ever find out?

I bet she saw you, but wow that was cool of her to keep her mouth shut. She probably just walked away snickering to herself about it. Got off lucky ai.
Well, there's a chance that she didn't see anything at all.
Also, there's a chance that she interpreted it as cold breath maybe?
But, if things turn out the other way round, what my friends would do in this situation is deny it.
At the end of the day, she's seen you just once, not many times to prove her point. No evidence too. So, it could all be a misunderstanding. I don't know if it will work in your case, but it seems to have with some people. Best of luck.
