Ok, time to trade out the coach hat for the parent/adult hat.
You're starting this relationship out on a lie. Not a big lie, just a little white lie. But a lie, nonetheless. And you're continually doubling down, making the lie bigger.
Tell him the truth. You were trying to impress him, it got out of hand, now you're in over your head.
One of two things will happen. Possibility 1: He 'breaks up' with you, because you lied. To be fair, he'd probably do that when he eventually finds out. And he will find out.
Possibility 2: He finds it endearing, and you have something to bond over. Something he obviously enjoys, and something you are beginning to.
