I have dwarfism and I'm 25 years old who happens to be 4 feet tall. Most people continue to grow up until they are roughly 17-18 years old. Teenagers generally grow a LOT in many areas during these teenager years. You still may grow a few more inches or so. Also you could talk to your doctor about Growth Hormone Shots. When you are about 16 or 17 you will not be able to take them because those are your final years of growing and developing.
However, if it is the case that you won't grow that much taller, you need to find a way to be happy with who you are and enjoy life regardless. You cannot control how you look, other than the cosmetic aspects. There is more to life than being the tallest person.
I have dwarfism and my life is great! I have a wonderful job, a cool car, my own apartment and I am married to an average sized man. My dwarfism does not define who I am or rules my life. Yes I have some limitations, but I do not let my short stature control my life.

You've got at least 4 more years of growing to do! You'll pick up some more height, don't worry :)
