Well, I'm a first year physical therapy student. That muscle is part of your quadriceps which attaches to the tibia on the tibial tuberosity.
You should be able to tell if it's actually bone pain or muscle pain. If your bones were damaged somehow, you'd know it. You probably just pulled the muscle a little bit.
Obviously, the only way to tell for sure is to have x-rays done, but I'd wait a few days and see where the pain goes. If it's minor now, it's probably going to be fine by Saturday. Since it isn't greatly inhibiting your daily life, give it up to a week to work itself out. If it still hurts after that long, see a doctor.
