Lawyers- help!!

I have no idea what I'm going to do. This is kind of a long story so bear with me and please, any advice you can give me I would GREATLY appreciate!

A month ago, I got an open container citation in Morgantown. I have a really good fake ID, and I was drunk and not thinking, and gave that to the cop. I'll be 21 in a few weeks. I went and paid a $135 fine the next day and was told my numerous people that it was over and done with, so I didn't bother telling the girl whose ID it is.

A few days ago, I get a call from her saying she's getting in trouble with WVU for the open container, and we need to talk about it. We agreed that she'd say she lost her wallet last year (how I got the ID). I remembered that I put my cell phone number as the contact number on the citation, AND I paid with my own credit card. But my main concern was her getting out of control, so I told her do whatever she had to do and I'd deal with the repercussions.

She went and spoke to the police on Monday, explained her situation, and called and told me that they were pretty casual with her, so she didn't think they'd persue it anymore, especially since they already got their money.

I got a call from the police today. I ended up telling the officer everything (I said a friend had given me the ID and I couldn't remember who it is). He was very nice about it and told me the more I cooperate, the less severe my punishment will be. He was also surprised to find out that I had gone and paid the fine. On Monday, I'm going in there to meet with him. He told me I'd probably be given another citation for a fake ID.

My friends are all saying to hire a lawyer and go in there, my parents want to meet with him this Friday (even though he told me he was busy all week), and my parents just keep saying "DON'T SIGN ANYTHING." I have absolutely no idea what to do. I don't know if I'm getting in more trouble Monday or what. I'm also scared if my parents go in there Friday, I come off looking childish, like I need Mommy and Daddy to come help me out.

Can anyone please shed some light on this situation??
