I would double check this. In many American states, there's two ages of consent. One for minors having sex with minors and/or adult teenagers, etc, and 18 for no age restrictions between partners.
At the very least, let the parents know if you can.

I know in NY, the age of consent is 17. There are also Romeo and Juliet laws that allow for a two year difference, down to 14 I think. So a 14 year old can have sex with up to a 16 year old, and an 18 year old can have sex with a 16 year old.
Most states have these laws. Some states it is 16, some 17, and some 18. See here
