Well middle school relationships are always akward. It's an akward part of life, plus, there's not much you guys can do as far as "dating". Mabye you guys should do stuff like going to the mall with a group of friends. That way it's less akward for you two because it's not just you, AND your parents will be more comfortable.

stop stressing over it. At your age "dating " should only mean that you and him promise not to kiss anyone else. other than that you're just friends like you are with the rest of your friends. Your parents thoughts about you being too young stem from the fact that they don't want you being sexual at your age which is pretty reasonable.
Just think of him as a good friend and act that way.

you don't have to tell your parents until they ask... and when they do just say you've been dating for a little while but you wanted to wait and make sure you were really an item before telling them. in the meanwhile, tell them that he's just a friend and go on group dates or meet him somewhere.
as for being shy, at first just treat him like you would any guy friend... then start being flirtacious, holding hands, cuddling etc.
good luck! <3

Don't stress about being shy too much, it's normal to be nervous around your boyfriend at this age! Just talk to him, hold hands, hug. If you're still nervous then go out together in groups with your friends. Seeing familiar faces will calm you down and make it not feel like you have so much stress on you.
As for your parents, it's normal for them not to want to let you date and in their eyes you are too young to 'date'.
Explain to them your definition of dating. Obviously your boyfriend doesn't drive and isn't going to be taking you places alone, so that should make your parents feel more comforable with you two dating.
