It's like, right at the end at the front, along the edge. Should I be worried about it chipping more and getting bigger since it's, like, right there?
 
Yes.
 
Touch it up before it gets too bad.
 
Repaint the hood in black primer. Preferably in the most dodgy way possible.

:p
 
Did you're car not come with a little bottle of touch up paint?

Just use that then buff it and wax it when it's dry.
 
This, but you've got to get the glossiest finish possible... on your glare reducing matte black bonnet.

The trick is to apply it over the current paint leaving blotches of that remaining. The best of both worlds.
 
Hit up the dealership parts counter. They'll sell you a bottle of touch-up paint for a few bucks.
 
Well, poot. Guess that's what I'm stuck doing, then. :( (EyeMWing's suggestion. NOT argatoga's, haha.)

It's not too noticeable, but I don't want it to spread like some kind of hood-chip-plague.
 
Consider it an investment - you'll have enough paint leftover to fix the next 10 chips that mysteriously appear.
