First off, the whole secrecy thing is a bad idea. A better way to go about dating is to work on earning your parents trust. If you can show them how responsible you are (which right now you are showing the opposite) you'll earn their trust. When someone special comes along, if you have their trust then you should be able to introduce him to them and let him start earning their trust as well.
And second, if you didn't tell your friend what's going on yourself then she shouldn't be saying anything. And this is just in general. If someone has to snoop to find something out its probably none of their business. So if your friend brings it up you just need to be firm with her and tell her you don't want to talk about it and you expect her to keep her mouth shut about it too. If she respects you she should respect your wishes.
