I just sat criss cross and my left knee made a sound like something stretched but i didnt feel any pain. as i walk i feel very slight pain on bottom half area of knee cap. feels a little stiff like. what happened?

I suspect a.minor strain of the prepatella ligaments or tendon. You could apply cold compresses 20 minutes every few hours to minimize any swelling or inflammation. Hopefully you'll be able to rest your knee for a short while.
