Staying at his house.

Recently my boyfriend has asked me to sleep over at his house. I'm totally cool with this, however I don't think my parents would be. I'm 16, so I mean I'm legal..even allowed to leave home. I need to ask them if I can stay over, but I'm almost certain they will not be happy with this, as they aren't even happy for us to be alone in my home when they aren't there.
I know this site has people of varying ages, and I wondered, could anyone give suggestions on how I can possibly bring this "situation" up, and let them allow me to go? Or, what you've done if you have been in this situation yourself?
Thankyou.

"Mum/Dad can I stay round [Insert Boyfriend's Name Here] House?"
They will most likely respect the honesty
When I've been in that situation myself I have asked the exact same question and received the answer
"Sure, just take a few condoms"
And I 16 at youngest when my parents said that
Or if it would reasure her mention that his parents will be there or something?
My parents were like that for ages. Up to the age of 21 if i had a boyfriend in my room i'd have to leave the door open! (i'm a student btw hence living at home).
"Mum, is it ok with you if Tarkan stays the night?". At first she was a little unsure about the whole thing, but I have a good solid relationship with my parents and they trust me not do anything stupid and as it turns out, we were spending the night with each other for almost a year before we even began to thinkabout sex.
So yeah, don't lie to your parents or make up excuses as to why you want to stay, because when they find out you've been telling fibs (and trust me, things things have a way of getting out) they'll be very mad at you and you will lose all the trust you have built up with them.
If they so no to you sleeping there, ask if he can stay at your place, your parents will probably fell heaps better about it, because they will be able to keep an eye on you (as lame as that sounds) and in no time at all, they will have probably built up enough turst in your man to let you sleep the night as his house
I'm just a bit worried on what her response will be. His mum was all like "Is this relationship serious?" And she even said something like she would have preferred if he had been asked to sleep at mine first. Therefore the whole thing makes me a little uneasy..
