Small lump... now I think a second one? Worth worrying about?

I'm fifteen years old.
A year ago I discovered a small lump on my left breast. Now it's a year later and I don't think the lump has grown but I think I have another lump of the same kind on my right breast.

The first lump I found is:
-around a centimeter above my nipple
-small (no bigger than 2 millimeters or so)
-not visible except for a tiny bump and appears slightly red
-can be felt underneath the skin
-moves slightly
-has a dimple when pinched

Also I had slight pains in the same breast but I'm not sure if it's just my mind playing tricks on me.
Is this worth getting checked out? Please help! I'm kinda scared.

Yes, tell your mother or parent about this and get it checked out immediately.  Try not to be afraid, but better safe than sorry.
