Sure. You can of lung cancer one day. I would suggest that you give up smoking before it becomes a habit. It is a habit that you would regret having later in life. I can guarantee that.
Remember, smoking is not cool !

There are reasons for laws, and they are to protect the well being of humanity (for the most part). Because you're not fully developed yet (until about 18 is when you're body levels off and can handle stresses that younger people can't) you may have stunted growth or yellower teeth faster. Yes you can die from smoking, no matter the age. But the risks are far greater if you start at a younger age. Your hormones may grow out at a slower rate too which could lead to prolonged puberty and growth problems as well.
Just because you're young and smoke doesn't mean you will DIE, but you're risks of getting cancer are higher than that of a matured adult.

yes. You can die from smoking...or gettin' hit by a car or some new charlie manson/jeffery dahmer wanabe goin' psycho and making you into worm food....or you could be killed or die in a million other ways.
You might not die right now from it. However, smoking at such a young age will stunt your growth, make you look older (not in a good way either), yellow your teeth...make you smell like cigarettes....and eventually lead to a whole shitload of diseases that can take you out of this world.
So, honestly...you might think it's cool to smoke...rebelous...whatever.....but dude...seriously...ya need to quit while your young enough to still do that. 20 years from now...your lungs will look like a turkey that sat in the oven on high for 2 days...I don't think you'd want that.

Believe it or not, some people can actually get Cancer after smoking just one cigarette! Others smoke their whole life only to get Cancer later in life. No one can predict when they will develop Cancer, but you can be pretty sure you will. It's like playing Russian Roulette with your life. Is it worth it to you to take that chance? By the way, it makes you smell bad and turns your hands, fingers and teeth yellow, not very attractive especially if you're trying to get girls to like you ~ Gross!!!

It will certainly shorten your lifespan and reduce the quality of your shorter life as you will acquire many health problems.
The sooner you quit the better.
Don't succumb to peer pressure. Just because your mates are all complete idiots is no excuse for you to be as stupid as they are.
Wake up to yourself and quit now. The longer you leave it the harder it gets.
