Pregnant or weird period?

I'm 17 and sexually active, I'm not on birth control or anything. My periods normally last for 4-5 days and are reasonably heavy. I got what I think was my period because it came on the day I was due but it was bright red blood and very very light, i could've used one pad and it wouldn't have been full. It only lasted 2 days and that's it.. I've never had anything like this and I'm worried.. Could I be pregnant or just experiencing a very weird period?

I would take a pregnancy test ladies. Actually, I'd probably take more than one. If you get inconsistent results, I'd recommend watching to see if you skip a second period.
This happened to me a few months ago. I tested a few days later and got a positive. The tests turned invalid, then negative but I continued to experience strong symptoms of pregnancy -- morning sickness, cramps, the works. Bled right when my period was due a month later but it was super-light and short again.
Went to the doctor the third month after skipping completely, thinking I was still pregnant. I am expecting, but I'm not that far along, and the ultrasound doesn't match the dates for when I "should" have ovulated with a normal cycle. We won't ever know for sure whether I was briefly pregnant and miscarried, throwing off my ovulation, or just insanely stressed/got a bad test the first time.

My last period was december 2nd 2011. I was suppose to start on January 6th 2012. Me and my boyfriend had unprotected sex on december 9th. He didn't finish inside me and it was the day i got off my period. We had unprotected sex again on january 4th two days before i was suppose to get my period. It never came. I have taken 2 pregnancy tests. They were both first response early result. I took one on saturday the 7th right after it didnt come and one early today on tuesday the 10th. They both came up negitive. My brests are swollen but not sore. I have had no signs of my period coming. What are the possibilities i could be pregnant? .
