Be honest with your parents. It happened with my daughter too. They really got her. The fact is she was underage and they took it off my bill. It was hard getting them to. You should never lie about it. Tell your parents exactly what you told us.

You sound way to young and immature to have a cell phone anyway so the way I see it the parents should pay the bill and take the phone away or make you pay the bill by doing chores, yard work etc. and make you learn a lesson and hopefully you learned from this so let you keep the phone but work the bill off by doing chores or babysit,

it is better to come clean with your parents. i have done the same thing with my phone. im 14. and i got my first phone when i was 10. i clicked on a link to get funny jokes sent to my phone. but when the bill came, i found out that it coast $4 a text message. so i came clean with my parents. and they weren't mad at me. good luck

Just tell them the truth, say your are really sorry and you had no idea that you had to pay for it!

be honest with them and come clean. They're going to be mad so just face it and get it over with. Offer to do chores or get a job to pay it back to them...
Tell them that you'll pay them back and then do just that!
Read the fine print next time!
best
