hi,
according what you told the possibilities could be,
1. stress will delay periods sometimes by affecting hypothalamic-pituitary axis.
2. normally also duration of menstrual cycle can fluctuate between 21 to 35 days. So you may get periods shortly.
3. spermatozoa can be present in pre-ejaculate fluid which may lead to pregnancy.
Now you once do urine pregnancy test,
if test is negative, consult gynecologist and take tablets for withdrawal bleeding.
if positive, you and your partner decide what to do next according to your planning.
take care.
