In your case you can do some simple tests.
1: Start your laptop without any USB stick whatsoever.
2: Start your laptop with your USB stick with the bitlocker key file.
If you get to the logon screen with test 1, without any Password or PIN then you are NOT safe whether there is any random USB or no USB at all. If this is the case then bitlocker has not been set up properly.
If you only get to the logon screen with test 2, then you have set up bitlocker the way you wanted, ie you have to insert your special USB stick or input a password/PIN.
Hope that helps.
