You will eventually. Your voice hasn't broken yet, and that's normal for your age. It really can happen any time from now until you're 15-16, so you may need to give it time.
As for "wanting one" I don't understand why it makes a difference. Some guys think they are more of a man, or "macho" as some would say, if they are farther along in puberty, and have visual signs to support that.
But honestly, that doesn't matter. It isn't like you can control it, so there's really no reason to "want one," but I see where you're coming from. It'll happen in due time, all you can do is be patient.

Steven. I want one because I think I would look good with one.

There's nothing you can do but wait it out, sadly. (I wasn't implying you were like the people were describing, hence the "some" just to clarify).

It's genetic. Does your dad have one?

Well, It may be genetic, and you might not be old enough. BUT this is something I've notice. I'm kinda on the low average side for weight for my age. And my adam's apple shows a lot. But my bro who is on the other side of the table (overweight a little) has one but you cant see it unless you feel it. So weight takes a toll if you want to see the adams apple. Now I'm not saying your overweight or anything in that area cause I've never seen you, but I'm just giving advice that you might want to keep that in mind about the weight/fat.

Depending on if you skinny or heavy there will be an adams apple. You might get one based on genetics so just let time tell.

I have one but its kinda high up on my neck so you can't always see it. Yours might just be genetic.

Well actually, you already have one.....everyone has one since the day they are born, it's just your trachea. It's just a matter about when it will become more pronounce. And for when that will happen, no one can tell you. People start puberty between the ages of 8 and 16, and people end pubes between the ages of 18-24! So there is a large margin for difference. Also no one has the same rate of change as another person, so you could have hair everywhere and still have the voice of a 5 year old girl, while another guy is completely hairless but sounds like a 40 year old man. But I would say it will happen sometime in the next 2 years....give or take a year or so.

Everybody has an adam's apple, it's just more prominent in guys. So yes, you will get one. Every guy has one. Just give a little time. Whether or not yours will stick out, who knows. I've noticed that the skinnier a guy is, the more noticeable it is. But yes, you will get one. Just give it time to show up.

Everyone grows at a different rate and everything develops in a different order for each person. I am 13 and if you take your finger and feel for it then you can feel it but you can't see it from the outside. And yes, I totally get where you're coming from about wanting an Adam's apple. They do make you look more manly XD
