Any time you have unprotected sex you risk pregnancy, but there is no way we can tell you one way or another whether you are pregnant. You can test with most over-the-counter tests about 10-14 days after you had unprotected sex. Just read the instructions carefully, because those tests all vary a little bit.
This is a good time to think about contraception. Have a plan in place so you do not have to go through this worry again. Decide what you want to use, assuming you don't want to be pregnant, and then have it or start taking it so you are prepared and in control of your life. It will be a lot less stressful for you, and you will be less likely to have an unwanted pregnancy.
We get a lot of questions like this, so you aren't alone: https://www.empowher.com/condition/menstrual-cycle
The big message here is if you don't want to be pregnant, have a plan in place for contraception. That is much easier than stopping in the heat of the moment, you know?
