Forgetting to take one contraceptive pill in the middle of your cycle does not put you at risk of pregnancy if you had unprotected sex within the last 5 days. You should take the missed pill as soon as you remember, continue with the rest of the pack, and not take a break from hormonal pills for this cycle. The missed day counts as the week off from hormones.
