Do not concern so much.

Emergency contraceptive pills protect from pregnancy if taken within 72 hours after having unprotected intercourse.
As you told that you had taken it after 2 hours of unprotected sex, there is very less chance that you are pregnant.

And your scanty and short period may be due to side effect of EC pills which causes irregular periods in most of the women.
You have to nothing to do regarding this matter as it will be regular within 2-3 months on its own.

Even if you want to get more sure you confirm this using urine pregnancy strip and know whether you are pregnant or not.

All the best . Take care
