Light brown/red discharge?

I had sex with my boyfriend about a week ago. We used a condom. I am not on any birth control. My period was due to start about 2 days after we had sex. It seemed to, but it was very light. At sometimes it'd be brown, then a sort of caramel color, and then blood. My periods are normally heavy. Don't judge me, but I am young. I have no other symptoms, and the discharge lasted about 5 days. This morning there wasn't much but I'm wondering if it'll come back. There was blood for a while though, that looks like my normal period. It was never really heavy. This has never happened before... Any answers please?
