My macbook pro made a weird sound?

I was just watching a video, not touching any keys at all when all of a sudden this sound came up in my headphones. It wasn't a glitchy sound nor was is and audio problem sound. It was like sound that would have the property of any other mac sounds in the preferences but when i checked my sounds it was none existent, none of them sounded that way.

The sound is hard to describe. It wasn't continues, it was short and it happened about 3-4 times. Twice closely in intervals and the third time was a little while after.

When i first hear it, i was confused about it then I covered my webcab thinking it could be some sort of hack that access cameras..yeah idk about that it was just a reflex thing i guess.But he weird part is that the sounds immediately stopped when i covered the webcam then when I uncovered it one last sound was made just like a second after i removed my hand, the noise came back for one last time. Weird coincidence maybe?

I would like to know if something like this has happened to any of you. And I clarify, the sound was audible like any sound played on a mac, I heard it through the headphones and without them. The audio did not come form the video, I checked and also I checked if there were any pop-ups and or any other opened web page that could have maid the sound but there were none.

    If it keeps making that sound when you restart, take it in to a apple store, or look in apple.com under support and look for a number to call, note, it might cost, going to apple store is free.
