check the inner pad! that pad is the one with the indicator and most likely to go out first... the outer pad (the one visible from the wheel) doesnt wear out as much as the inner pad at times... the rotors might look fine when you just take a quick look at them, but im sure if you take the time to take the wheel off and brake assembly off, you will get your answer...

change out the pads ASAP and get your rotors measured to make sure you havent gone past the minimum thickness rating thats on the inside of the rotor or else the rotors will crack after you get them turned or cut and heat them up with the pads once they are installed... hope this helps! dont drive like that too much!
