I was in a fender bender halloween night. The accident was "allegedly" my fault. The cops showed up got our info and we both reported to our insurance. I track my claim online and it says the case is closed but I have not recieved any info on if I have to pay or if I do not. It has been closed for over a month.

I am more worried about my deductible, not about paying directly for the other car.

You must be insured with Geico....sounds too familiar.
Has your insurance company provided you with an estimate of your damages? If so, it will show you what they are paying or not paying. Chances are if you are damages are over your deductible you're paying your deductible. If the damages are under your deductible...you're paying for the repairs yourself.
This means....you received the info on if you have to pay your deductible or not. The deductible applies period,. One more thing...your deductible only applies to YOUR car, not the other person.
If they haven't given you an estimate, why haven't you had it inspected?

Your friend hit a parked vehicle and therefore is at fault for this accident. The presence of the cop and the non-existence of flashers on the parked car have absolutely no bearing on this case whatsoever. If your friend's insurance denied the claim, then if you have your own insurance policy (or if you live with your parents and they do), there may be a possibility that your bills will be covered by that policy if you have 'medical payments' or 'personal injury protection' coverage. Most policies, if you have that coverage, will cover you as a passenger in a non-owned vehicle. If you don't have that coverage, then you'll have to sue your friend.

If the case is closed your insurance has already paid to get the other car fixed, you aren't going to have to pay anything, thats why you have insurance.

If it's been closed for a month, it obviously didn't take them long. They found you at fault, and paid out the claim. It won't affect you until (unless) your rates go up at renewal time. If you want to know how much they paid out, call them up and ask them, I'm sure they would tell you if you are interested.

Wait- what do you think youd have to pay?
If they accepted liability your property damage would cover the other drivers damages.. you dont pay anything out of pocket unless your vehicle was damaged and you would owe your deductible if you wished to get it fixed.
